Shogakukan is listing the fifth volume of Takashi Hashiguchi‘s Yakitate!! Japan Super Real manga as the final volume. The volume will ship on December 17.
The manga is a sequel to Hashiguchi’s earlier Yakitate!! Japan manga. Crunchyroll is streaming the manga’s anime adaptation, and it describes the story:
Kazuma Azuma wants to make bread. Not just any kind of bread though. He wants to make a bread that represents Japan itself and can stand toe-to-toe with rice as a national food. Thanks to his legendary “Hands of the Sun,” unnaturally warm hands that allow dough to ferment faster, Kazuma’s bread is like a slice of Heaven. And when the Pantasia Rookie Competition arrives, everyone will get a taste of his skill! Along with his friend Kawachi, he’ll go up against koala karate masters, Harvard bread scientists, samurai with rolling-pin swords and more as he bakes his way to glory!
Hashiguchi launched the sequel manga in the LINE Manga app in August 2019.
The original Yakitate!! Japan manga serialized in Shogakukan‘s Weekly Shonen Sunday magazine from 2001 to 2007. Viz Media released all 26 compiled book volumes in English.
The 69-episode anime premiered in 2004. Right Stuf released the series on DVD with English subtitles.
