Kodansha USA Reveals New Sailor Moon Box Set, 1 Digital, 5 Print Licenses

Kodansha USA Publishing announced its new print and digital licenses during its panel at San Diego Comic-Con on Thursday. Kodansha USA Publishing will release Sailor Moon Naoko Takeuchi Collection Manga Box Set 1 in holiday 2024, a box set that will include volumes 1-6 of the Naoko Takeuchi Collection version of the Sailor Moon manga, a set of 16 art cards, included in a holographic box with a magnetic enclosure.

 


Kodansha USA Publishing will release the first volume of Hal Osaka's That Beauty is a Tramp manga digitally on August 13. Kodansha USA describes the manga:

Cool and tomboyish Nagi wants a boyfriend, but has one big problem—ever since an incident in college, her body reflexively rejects the touch of any man. That is, until she encounters the beautiful male model Aran, who uses his androgynous look to effortlessly model both masculine and feminine styles. She's shocked to discover that she can touch him without having a reaction, and when he asks her to join him in an upcoming photo shoot with a famous photographer, she agrees, on one condition—be her practice boyfriend for one month, and help her conquer her aversion once and for all.
