[Ongoing] Kure-nai by Yamamoto Yamato

kirimi · November 25, 2007, 10:44 PM

This new series begins with the JUMP SQ magazine, and is based on a series of light novels of the same title by Katayama Kentarou (there's three so far). Yamamoto Yamato-sensei also provided the illustrations for the novel.

Kure-nai is about Kurenai Shinkurou, a first-year high school student who also has a job as a freelance "mediator," and lives in a dormitory full of strange people. For some reason, he also appears to be a guardian of a 7-year-old girl named Kuhouin Murasaki. Kurenai hates people who hurt others, because of his own past, and takes on these jobs to help those in need.

Check out the first chapter HERE!

There was a one-shot released for Kure-nai a couple of months back in the Summer 2007 issue of Akamaru JUMP. This has been scanned and shared by Asakura here! Thank you! For your convenience, here are download links:

Note: A TV anime series based on the novels has also been announced, and will begin next year (2008). Information about the anime can be found at the official site HERE!

Yep, just watched episode 1. Gorgeous art and interesting premise. Enough for me to want to catch the next episode. Hope this turns out well!

Character interpretations are quite different between the anime and manga. I think I like the anime art better.

Is there a translation of the one shot? Also is chapter 6 is already out? Thank you..

Sadly the manga doesn't get a lot of love. The anime is really good. It actually takes place right before the manga if I remember correctly.
