The response was lukewarm! The final volume 5 of the new manga "Samurai 8" written by Masashi Kishimoto will be released on May 13

Since the end of Naruto, Masashi Kishimoto has been in a long period of "cultivation". He once said that the long-awaited original new manga "Samurai 8: Hachimaruden" which was "more interesting than Naruto" began serialization in May 2019. The response has been mediocre. It was officially completed on March 23 this year. Today, the official announced that the final 5th volume will be released on May 13. Those who want to collect it can pay attention to it.

"Samurai 8: Hachimaruden" is written by Masashi Kishimoto and illustrated by Akira Okubo. The protagonist is set as a child with a serious illness (relying on huge mechanical equipment to maintain life), and his greatest pleasure in life is playing games. He has always lived an ordinary life with his father. However, one day in the future, a cat who is also a samurai appeared in front of the protagonist, and from then on, the protagonist's next samurai adventure life began.

During the short period of serialization, it is estimated that the ideas and thoughts that Mr. Kishimoto wanted to convey through the comics were not fully released before it was finished. Although it is a bit regrettable, the mediocre response from readers may be the reason for the rapid completion of the comics.
