posted on by Crystalyn Hodgkins
The January issue of Shueisha's Cocohana magazine revealed on Thursday that Moto Hagio's Ōhi Marugo (Queen Margot) manga will reach its "climax" in the February issue, which will ship on December 28.
Hagio launched the manga in August 2012, but the series went on hiatus from December 2017 through August 2018. Shueisha published the seventh compiled volume on February 25.
The title takes place in 16th-century France and tells the story of the historical Margaret of Valois, who dreams of marrying a handsome prince, but her fate is upended by the religious turmoil in Europe.
Fantagraphics Books has released Hagio's Otherworld Barbara, Heart of Thomas (Thomas no Shinzō), and A Drunken Dream and Other Stories manga, and is also releasing Hagio's The Poe Clan manga. Viz Media previously released Hagio's They Were Eleven and A,A' manga in English. Denpa announced last month that it will release Hagio's Lil' Leo (Leo-kun) manga in English.
