Sweat and Soap’s Kintetsu Yamada Launches New Manga
Telework Yotabanashi romantic comedy debuts on November 2
This year’s 48th issue of Kodansha‘s Morning magazine revealed on Thursday that Kintetsu Yamada (Sweat and Soap, pictured right) is launching a new manga titled Telework Yotabanashi (Telework Gossip) in the magazine’s next issue on November 2.
The romantic comedy follows a man who works from home. With more free time, he gets to know his female neighbor.
Yamada launched Sweat and Soap (Ase to Sekken) in Kodansha‘s Morning and D Morning magazines in 2018, and ended the series in January 2021. The manga’s 11th and final compiled volume shipped in May 2021. The manga got a new chapter in Yamada’s short story collection book that shipped on January 21. The series inspired a live-action series in MBS‘ “Drama Tokku” programming block in February.
Kodansha USA published the manga in English.
Yamada debuted a new manga digitally titled Kasane to Subaru (Kasane and Subaru) last December.

The official website for the 3D CG anime of Eiichi Shimizu and Tomohiro Shimoguchi‘s Ultraman manga unveiled a new cast member, the May 11 worldwide Netflix debut, and a new visual for the anime on Friday.
Hideaki Tezuka voices the character Daisuke Arashi (seen above), a former colleague of Hayata in the Science Special Search Party (SSSP).
M.A.O and Kōji Ishii join the cast as the characters Balkyua and Mephisto, respectively.
Kenji Kamiyama (Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex, Eden of the East, Napping Princess) and Shinji Aramaki (Appleseed, Harlock: Space Pirate, Starship Troopers: Traitor of Mars) are returning to direct the final anime season. Production I.G (Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex, Eden of the East, Napping Princess) and Sola Digital Arts (Appleseed Alpha, Starship Troopers: Invasion, Starship Troopers: Traitor of Mars) are again producing the anime in 3D CG. Nobuko Toda and Kazuma Jinnouchi are returning to compose the music.
Netflix describes the anime’s story:
Several years have passed since the events of Ultraman, with the legendary “Giant of Light” (光の巨人 Hikari no Kyojin) now a memory, as it is believed he returned home after fighting the many giant aliens that invaded the Earth. Shin Hayata’s son Shinjiro seems to possess a strange ability, and it is this ability, along with his father’s revelation that he was Ultraman, that leads Shinjiro to battle the new aliens invading the Earth as the new Ultraman.
Kamiyama, Aramaki, Production I.G, and Sola Digital Arts returned from the first season for the second one.
Tatsuhisa Suzuki was slated to play the new Ultraman character Kōtarō Higashi/Ultraman Taro in the second season, but he offered to step down from the role, due to his hiatus from “all entertainment industry activities” last year. Tomoaki Maeno is voicing the character instead. Suzuki performed the opening theme songs for the first season as a member of OLDCODEX.
