Trillion Game Manga
The Trillion Game anime series is based on the manga written by Riichiro Inagaki and illustrated by Ryoichi Ikegami. The 2024 Shogakukan Manga Award winner began serialization in Big Comic Superior in December 2020 and has since published nine volumes. VIZ Media licenses the series in English and released the first volume on September 17, 2024. Volume 2 is set to release on November 19, 2024.
Inagaki is famous for his work as the author of the hit series Dr. Stone and Eyeshield 21. Meanwhile, Ikegami is the same for his illustration work for manga such as Crying Freeman and Heat. The Trillion Game manga has over 1.5 million copies in circulation.
VIZ Media describes the series as such:
After Haru and Gaku become the first Japanese people in the 21st century to be listed among the world’s top-ten billionaires, Gaku reflects on when he and Haru met and the events that led to the founding of their company. What started as a middle school acquaintanceship builds to a fruitful and unorthodox partnership as the two progress on their ruthless path to success.
