A fascinating new series by the acclaimed manga artist Chiru Ariumi, titled Mission to Fall in Love with My Wife Again, has officially launched in the latest issue of KADOKAWA's Haruta magazine, Volume 133, which hit shelves today, April 15th.
Known for her unique takes on romance and relationships, Chiru Ariumi—the creator behind popular titles such as Akkun to Kanojo and Gohoubi wa Nemuri no Mae ni—brings a fresh, quirky premise to her newest work. The story of Mission to Fall in Love with My Wife Again kicks off when an extraterrestrial visitor arrives on Earth with a peculiar objective: to thoroughly investigate human romantic relationships and reproductive methods. In a bold move to gather firsthand data, the alien decides to possess the body of a married man.
However, the alien's scientific mission takes an unexpected turn upon returning to the man's home, where his unsuspecting 'wife' awaits. Instead of a blossoming romance or a vibrant family life, the alien quickly discovers that the relationship between the human couple has significantly deteriorated, with their affection for each other having noticeably cooled. This unforeseen complication transforms the alien's research mission into an impromptu, and likely humorous, endeavor to rekindle the estranged couple's love, all while trying to comprehend the complexities of human emotion and marital bonds.
Haruta magazine, published by industry giant KADOKAWA, is renowned for its diverse lineup of critically acclaimed and often unconventional manga titles, making it the perfect home for Ariumi's latest imaginative creation. The magazine consistently offers readers a blend of intriguing narratives and distinct artistic styles, and Mission to Fall in Love with My Wife Again promises to uphold this tradition with its blend of sci-fi, romance, and slice-of-life comedy.
In addition to this exciting new serialization, this issue of Haruta Vol. 133 also includes a special large-format poster as an appendix, featuring captivating artwork from Haruo Iwamune's acclaimed series, Usuzumi no Hate. Iwamune's historical fantasy manga is celebrated for its intricate art and compelling storytelling, making the bonus poster a delightful treat for fans of both series and a testament to the magazine's commitment to quality content.
With its inventive concept and Chiru Ariumi's proven track record in crafting engaging romantic comedies, Mission to Fall in Love with My Wife Again is set to be a standout series. Readers can look forward to a heartwarming, funny, and perhaps even thought-provoking journey as an alien grapples with the intricate and often baffling world of human love.
