Nanbaka Manga Enters 4th Part
posted on by Rafael Antonio Pineda
The Comico manga app revealed on Sunday that Shō Futamata's Nanbaka manga will enter the manga's fourth part. The 222nd chapter published on Sunday was the final chapter in the manga's third part.
Futabasha is listing the eighth print volume of the manga as the final volume. The volume ends the manga's "first part," and it is currently unclear if Futabasha will publish more of the manga in print.
Funimation describes the story of the manga's anime adaptation:
Welcome to Nanba, the world's largest, most impenetrable prison. Locked away in cell block 13 are four inmates who provide more than enough trouble for Officer Hajime. Between attempted breakouts, gambling, and general misbehaving, these four believe that just because they're in prison doesn't mean they can't have fun! Follow the hijinks of Jyugo, Uno, Rock, and Nico as they pass time behind bars.
Futamata launched the manga on the Comico app in 2013. Futabasha publised the manga's seventh compiled book volume on January 12. Crunchyroll previously offered the original manga online, but removed it from the service last December.
The Nanbaka anime premiered in Japan in October 2016, and Crunchyroll streamed the television series and its original net anime sequel simultaneously with Japan. Funimation dubbed the anime as it aired in Japan.
