Kikori Morinos Isekai-Themed Manga Concludes After Two-Year Run

Kikori Morino’s manga adaptation of Yuuki Enaga’s light novel Shōkan Skill wo Keishōshita node Kiwamete Miyō to Omoimasu! finished its run on Friday, 14 June 2026, when Comic Growl (formerly Comic Bushiroad Web) posted the second and final part of the final chapter. The ending marks the conclusion of a two‑year serialization that began in November 2024.

The series follows a college student who receives an “Isekai ticket” from a mysterious woman and is reincarnated as a seven‑year‑old prince in another world. With a summoning skill, the protagonist chooses to build a light‑hearted life surrounded by cute, fluffy magical creatures. The manga is a visual adaptation of Enaga’s original light novel, which first appeared on the Kakuyomu web platform in 2023.

Kadokawa Corporation, the publisher of both the light novel and the manga, released the first compiled volume of the manga in March 2025. The third and final volume was issued on 8 June 2025, a month before the online conclusion. The light novel itself was published in two volumes by Kadokawa: the first, illustrated by nyanya, debuted in February 2024, and the second followed in October 2024.

Morino, who is also known for the post‑apocalyptic manga Giant Spider & Me – A Post‑Apocalyptic Tale (Owari Nochi, Asanagi Gurashi), began that series on the web magazine Alterna pixiv in 2016. The manga concluded with its third volume in 2018, and Seven Seas Entertainment later released an English edition.

Comic Growl’s announcement of the final chapter was the first official statement about the series’ conclusion. The platform has been the home for several Kadokawa‑backed titles, and its decision to end the serialization follows the completion of the source light novel’s second volume.

The ending of Shōkan Skill wo Keishōshita node Kiwamete Miyō to Omoimasu! reflects a broader trend in Kadokawa’s publishing strategy, which often adapts popular web novels into manga and, when successful, into anime. Kadokawa’s ownership of Anime News Network, a subsidiary of Kadokawa World Entertainment, underscores the company’s integrated approach to media production and distribution.

While the manga’s conclusion means no further chapters will appear on Comic Growl, the compiled volumes remain in print. Fans of the series can still purchase the three volumes, and the light novel continues to be available in both Japanese and English translations.

The series’ completion also signals the end of Morino’s involvement in the Shōkan Skill franchise. No further projects have been announced by the artist in relation to the light novel or its adaptations.

In summary, Kikori Morino’s Shōkan Skill wo Keishōshita node Kiwamete Miyō to Omoimasu! concluded its two‑year serialization on Comic Growl in mid‑June 2026. The manga’s final chapter, the third volume’s release, and the light novel’s second volume collectively mark the end of the franchise’s current publication cycle. Readers can still access the finished story through the compiled volumes, while the series remains a notable example of Kadokawa’s adaptation pipeline from web novel to manga.
