A new manga has captured the interest of Chainsaw Man author Tatsuki Fujimoto.

Fujimoto comments on Volume 2 of Centuria:

“A super artistic power and seriousness, it’s a full-on fantasy! The monster designs are also incredible!”

Centuria is a dark fantasy manga written and illustrated by Tohru Kuramori for the Shonen Jump + app on April 8, 2024.

The series currently has 25 chapters, with 2 volumes out and 3 story arcs.

The manga was nominated for the 2024 Next Manga Awards in the Best Web Manga category and ranked seventh out of 69 nominees

Centurria is set in a medieval world where a blacksmith boy, Julian, is caught as a stowaway on a slave ship and bonds with a pregnant slave woman named Mira, giving him the first experience he has of true motherly love.

However, the slave owner kills every slave for a profit in the middle of a stormy sea.

A mysterious sea monster appears and offers to give Julian the lives and strength of the 100 men and women that died, allowing him to escape and enter the continent.
