Viz to Unflip Inuyasha Manga

Viz Media has announced that its continuing publication of Rumiko Takahashi’s Inuyasha manga series will switch publication format to the authentic original Japanese right-to-left panel lay-out beginning in volume 38, scheduled for release in July. English translated volumes 38 to 56 – the final series’ volume – will be released in America monthly.

Viz will begin publishing the Inuyasha manga series in its “Viz Big” format in November. Each $17.99 volume will contain the equivalent of three previous books. The Viz Big volumes will be published from the beginning in original Japanese right-to-left format.
