Insect Girl is a new manga by Kanya Aki that made its debut last week. Chapter 1, titled “Numerous Deaths in the Night,” has helped build a little hype, and the newcomer manga has shown some promise.
Human-animal hybrid stories are not a new concept in manga and anime, so Insect Girl has big shoes to fill, especially with entries like So I’m a Spider, So What?, and My Deer Friend Nokotan currently dominating. Thankfully, the second chapter of the manga is coming soon, and you don’t have to wait long at all to know if this story is worth your time.
Insect Girl’s synopsis
In this manga, insects and humans co-exist, albeit in conflict. When Mashiro ventures into the mountains to eliminate a major threat, he encounters a mysterious girl named Yuren, who lives on a dangerous, bug-infested hill with her mother. Mashiro can’t understand what the mother-daughter duo are doing in such a place, but he soon realizes that Yuren might be hiding more than she lets on: she’s not an ordinary girl.
