On April 2014, Kenji Inoue and Kimitake Yoshioka began creating Grand Blue is a manga series. Kodansha’s seinen magazine serialized it, compiling 16 volumes as of November 2020. On February 16, 2021, volume 12 of the manga will be released digitally. A printed copy will be release on March 2021. On July 2018, Zero-G studios produced an anime adaptation of the Manga.

The Grand Blue Manga delay is sure to make the fans sad. The health of the author, however, takes the highest priority, and we hope he’ll get well soon.
