Volume 1 of Shusaku Namikawa's ``Chougen Market Heroes Menko Reverser Kakeru'', originally written by Makoto Fukami, was released today, June 26th.
The World of Chougen Market Heroes
The setting of this work is a world where giant villains who harm humanity and heroes who save people from villains are active. Kakeru Ginga, a young man who was once Japan's number one player in the hobby Ultra Menko, which took the country by storm, is living a lackluster life.
Kakeru's Journey to Heroism
He lived his life trying not to remember his troubled past, such as his parents' divorce over the money he earned from menko. This is a heroic story in which Kakeru meets a mysterious man, Dengar, and uses the Ultra Menko he developed for battle against villains to become a hero.
The work is a comic adaptation of the board game ``Chougen Market Heroes'' and is serialized in Shogakukan's Weekly CoroCoro Comic. With the release of Volume 1, fans can now dive into the world of Chougen Market Heroes and follow Kakeru's journey to heroism.
