The first episode of Fukusuke Miyamoto's manga adaptation of Miyuki Miyabe's Mishimaya Hench Hyaku Monogatari (Mishimaya's Strange Ghost Stories) novels was released on the Comic Bridge website last Wednesday.
The protagonist of the book is a young woman named Ochika who had her heart broken at her parent's home. Currently, she resides in Edo with her uncle and his wife, who own Mishimaya Bags. Ochika's heart is stirred by the enigmatic tales of the customers that come into the shop.
The first edition of the novel series was released by Kadokawa in April 2012, and the eighth edition came out in July 2022.
In June 2012, Miyabe released the two-volume novel The Book of Heroes (Eiy no Sho). The novels were released in English by Viz Media under its Haikasoru banner. The sequel to the book, The Gate of Sorrows (Hitan no Mon), was released by Miyabe in January 2015, and Viz Media's Haikasoru imprint also translated the book into English in August 2016.
Brave Story, a 1999 serialized novel by Miyabe, was turned into an anime movie by Gonzo in 2006. The Brave Story novel by Miyabe was released by Viz in North America in 2007. The novel was turned into a manga in 2004 by Yoichiro Ono. In 1999, All She Was Worth (Kasha) was translated and published in North America by Mariner Books, and Kodansha USA also published Crossfire, Shadow Family, The Devil's Whisper, and The Sleeping Dragon.
Through its Haikasoru imprint, Viz published Miyabe's The Book of Heroes, Ico: Castle in the Mist, and Apparitions: Ghosts of Old Edo horror story collections.
In 2002, Miyamoto published the first issue of the Ogamiya Yokoch Tenmatsuki manga in Ichijinsha's Monthly Comic Zero-Sum. The manga's first compiled book volume was released by Ichijinsha in 2003, and its 27th and final volume was released in 2017.
