Takahiro Yonemura Partners with eigoMANGA to publish the new manga Recycled Brain

eigoMANGA has announced its partnership with acclaimed manga creator Takahiro Yonemura to bring readers an original manga series Recycled Brain. This release marks a compelling journey into a world shaped by biotechnology and moral dilemmas, where science meets fantasy.

Recycled Brain invites readers into a world where humanity has mastered the art of creating custom life forms, from dragons to pegasuses, and placed them at the center of themed experiences. The narrative follows Hayate Yamano, a guide in a unique “theme park” where telepathic connections and performances with these creatures are common. This seemingly idyllic realm is disrupted when a group of anti-biotechnology cultists launches a violent attack, exposing deeper secrets within the park and a clash of ideologies.

The story escalates as Hayate, alongside his dragon partner Vine, confronts dangerous threats and delves into complex questions about ethics, technology, and the nature of existence. Readers can expect a riveting blend of action, science fiction, and philosophical inquiry as Hayate battles for the future of humanity.

Takahiro Yonemura, known for his previous works such as Beast Code and the light novel The Metallic Dragon and I, brings his unique storytelling prowess to this project. With a PhD in Engineering and a role as a lecturer in Japan, Yonemura seamlessly blends scientific themes with creative narratives.

Recycled Brain is scheduled for release on January 29, 2025, and will be available in stores and on digital platforms.
