Synopsis
When you're the infamous "genius" assassin known as The Fable, many things are easy. Being an ordinary person, however, is not one of them. In fact, being told that he can't kill anyone for a while might be the hardest job he's ever had…
The original manga inspired two live-action films, released in Japan in June 2019 and June 2021, respectively.
Minami launched the manga The Fable: The Second Contact as a sequel to The Fable in July 2021. The manga ended its serialization on Monday. The manga serves as the "second part" of the overall manga franchise. Kodansha will release the manga's eighth volume on August 4.
Finally, it's worth remembering that the 32nd issue of Weekly Young Magazine also recently revealed that the manga will be entering its final phase.
