This year's ninth issue of Kodansha's Young Magazine the 3rd manga magazine revealed on Tuesday that Ikumi Fukuda's manga adaptation of Yoshiki Tanaka's Nana Toshi Monogatari (Seven Cities Story) novel will end in the magazine's next issue on September 6.
Fukuda launched the manga in Young Magazine the 3rd in April 2017. Kodansha published the manga's fourth compiled book volume on June 20. The novel's story is set in a near-future Earth, in the aftermath of a major disaster that shifts the planet's polar axis 90 degrees, situating the poles along the equatorial line and killing everyone on Earth. A moon-based colony avoids the disaster, and begins recolonizing the depopulated Earth by establishing seven cities in strategic locations. However, to ensure the loyalty of the Earth colony, the moon establishes an orbital defense system that destroys anything that flies 500 meters in the air. When an unknown virus kills everyone on the moon, humanity becomes trapped on Earth, where the political intrigues of the seven cities continue to play out. The novel collects four short stories, which Tanaka (The Legend of the Galactic Heroes, The Heroic Legend of Arslan) published in Hayakawa Publishing's SF Magazine from 1986 to 1989, and adds a fifth story. The novel received an OAV adaptation titled Nana Toshi Monogatari ~ Hokkyokukai Sensen ~ (Seven Cities Story ~ Arctic Front ~) in 1994. |
