Seraphim: 266,613,336 Wings Manga by Oshii/Kon Listed for December Release

The forthcoming re-release of the Seraphim manga project created by Mamoru Oshii and Satoshi Kon in the mid-1990’s and serialized in Animage has been listed for sale in a limited edition version for release next month in Japan with a bonus additional booklet featuring articles from the Paprika director.

The Seraphim: 266613336 Wings manga was previously serialized in Animage magazine  for 16 chapters in  from the May 1995 issue to the November 1996 issue, but it was never reprinted in book form until a partial reprint was released last October as a part of the “Satoshi Kon Memorial Book”, shipped with that month’s Monthly Comic Ryu anthology.

Seraphim: 266613336 Wings is set after the world has been ravaged by “tenshi-byō” (angel disease), an affliction that eventually leads to death for all the victims. To solve the mystery of this disease, three wise men and a girl named Sera embark on a journey to the heart of Central Asia. Many enemies and conspiracies await them along the way.
