Yomi no Tsugai #13

Yomi no Tsugai, or Daemons of the Shadow Realm, is the ongoing manga series created by Hiromu Arakawa, who is widely known for her previous work on Fullmetal Alchemist. The series began serialization in Monthly Shonen Gangan in 2021, marking Arakawa's return to a monthly publication schedule. The story follows Yuru, a young man living in a remote mountain village, whose life is upended when his twin sister, Asa, is revealed to be a powerful figure within a secret society. The series explores themes of family legacy, mysticism, and the complex relationships between humans and supernatural guardians known as tsugai.

The thirteenth volume of the series continues the narrative arc following the revelations concerning Yuru’s heritage and the conflict surrounding the village's hidden history. Arakawa’s design philosophy for the series emphasizes sharp, character-driven action sequences balanced with intricate lore and a distinct folkloric aesthetic. Like her previous works, the physical volumes are meticulously produced by Square Enix, maintaining a consistent editorial standard that focuses on reader clarity and detailed ink work, which has been well received by both long-time fans and new readers of the action-fantasy genre.
