posted on by Rafael Antonio Pineda
Manga creator Sou-Bou-Tei Kowasu Beshi (Sou-Bou-Tei Must Be Destroyed) manga is on the verge of its "climactic" final arc, and that there are only "one or two mountains [to climb]."
The manga centers on the titular Sou-Bou-Tei mansion, which has stood in Tokyo's Numanakarai since the Taisho period, and is widely rumored to be haunted. A boy named Rokurō Tachiki moves into the place, and befriends Tsutomu Takoha, a man living in the apartment next door. When Rokurō's father comes to pay him a visit, he is consumed by a portrait in the house. Horrified and stricken with grief, Rokurō vows revenge on the sentient mansion, and swears to destroy it.
Fujita Shogakukan shipped the manga's seventh compiled book volume on January 26, and will ship the manga's eighth volume on April 18.
