Where it came from
Moriarty the Patriot, written by Ryosuke Takeuchi and illustrated by Hikaru Miyoshi, is a manga series that reimagines the origin story of Sherlock Holmes's arch-nemesis, William James Moriarty. Debuting in Jump Square in 2016, the series was designed to explore the Victorian-era class divide through the eyes of the antagonist, positioning Moriarty as a criminal consultant attempting to dismantle the rigid British social hierarchy. Volume 15 continues this narrative arc, maintaining the series' signature blend of gothic atmosphere and intricate psychological thriller elements.
The aesthetic of the series is heavily influenced by Miyoshi's character designs, which lean into a refined, elegant style that emphasizes the sophistication of the protagonists. The editorial direction aimed to revitalize the classic Doylean canon for a modern manga-reading audience, focusing on moral ambiguity rather than traditional hero-versus-villain dynamics. The volume, like its predecessors, received praise for its polished artwork and its ability to weave historical socio-political themes into a compelling serialized format.
