Doujin circle C2 Kikan announced on Saturday that Kagami Yoshimizu’s Lucky☆Star manga is resuming its serialization after over eight years on hiatus. The manga will switch to Kadokawa’s Mitaina! magazine, beginning with the third issue on November 10.
Yoshimizu began drawing Lucky☆Star in Comptiq in 2004. The slice of life comedy series was also featured in multiple Kadokawa magazines, including Comp Ace, Shounen Ace, and Newtype. The manga entered hiatus in 2014 due to a new project Yoshimizu was developing. Kadokawa published the tenth volume in November 2013.
Kyoto Animation produced a 24-episode television anime in Spring 2007 and an original video anime in September 2008. Kadokawa Pictures USA and Bandai Entertainment originally licensed the anime in North America and released it in six DVD volumes from May 2008 to March 2009. Funimation reacquired the anime in August 2014 and released it on home video in July 2016.
Bandai Entertainment published the first eight volumes in English between March 2009 and February 2011 before the company went defunct. VIZ Media relicensed the manga for digital release in 2014 and published the eighth volume in February 2015.
Synopsis
When eating a chocolate cornet, which end do you begin with, the top or the bottom? Which side is the top and which is the bottom? For that matter, what is a chocolate cornet? The proper way to eat pastries is only one of the many everyday occurrences explored by the girls of Ms. Kuroi’s class.
Meet Konata, an athletic and intelligent girl too dedicated to her favorite primetime anime to excel in anything but otaku culture; Miyuki, the cute, bespectacled living example of moe with an encyclopedic knowledge of all subjects; Kagami, the bitter-sweet, tough but shy straight-man to Konata’s constant teasing and pranks; and her younger fraternal twin sister, Tsukasa, a kind but air-headed klutz. Witness this study in the human condition as our heroines explore the unexplored in questioning the ordinary! (Source: Bandai Entertainment, edited)
