Hololive Gets a Fantasy Manga Adaptation from Mangaka Goblin Slayer

Post a Comment

Hololive’s dominance as the largest Virtual YouTuber agency company today is an undeniable fact. In addition to getting a very high follower base from each VTuber under their banner, they have also prepared a large-scale project called Hololive Alternative. As part of the project, Hololive recently announced a manga adaptation titled Holoearth Chronicles.

Announced for the first time through the official Hololive Alternative Twitter account, the manga with the full title Holoearth Chronicles Side: E ~Yamato Fantasia~ comes with a fantasy genre. The storyline focuses on two well-known VTubers, Ookami Mio and Shirakami Fubuki, where they go on an adventure as two knights in a fantasy world and have to face various enemies under Ayame’s subordinates. This battle scene happened to be shown on teaser videos project that was showcased last month.

Interestingly, the first chapter of this manga turned out to be done by Kosuke Kurose who is the mangaka of Goblin Slayer. Maybe this can be a confirmation that the next chapters will still be handled by Kurose, or maybe the manga is made into a collaborative project of various illustrators working on different chapters. It should also be noted that Holoearth Chronicles is not the first manga adaptation for Hololive, because in 2020 there was a manga that focused on Mizuryu Kei’s VTuber Houshou Marine which unfortunately ended up being canceled.

Still around Hololive Alternative, it just so happens that this project includes a variety of new content ranging from virtual shows to online game adaptation. Regarding the online game itself, the CEO Motoaki Tanigo has opened a new job listing to look for talented staff who can help in the development process.
