Fairy Tail Manga to Return With New Revival Chapter

Fairy Tail's original manga is coming back for a special revival one-shot!

By Nick Valdez

Fairy Tail's original manga is coming back with a special new revival chapter next month! Fairy Tail ended its run with Kondasha's Weekly Shonen Jump magazine in 2017, and series creator Hiro Mashima has since gone on to craft new projects for Kodansha in the years since. These include the likes of Edens Zero (which will be coming to an end later this month), Dead Rock, and even helping to oversee an official sequel to Fairy Tail, Fairy Tail: 100 Years Quest. As the sequel manga gets ready for its anime debut this Summer, the manga original is coming back! 

With the upcoming premiere of the Fairy Tail: 100 Years Quest anime and upcoming end of the Edens Zero manga, Kodansha has announced there's a lot more to celebrate for creator Hiro Mashima. A special one-shot chapter for Fairy Tail will be released with Weekly Shonen Magazine on July 3rd, but has yet to detail how many pages or what fans might get to see in this new revival entry. You can check out Kodansha's announcement for the new Fairy Tail chapter below along with their other Mashima manga updates.
