Seven Seas Entertainment has announced the acquisition of Yoshihiko Inui’s ultra-violent, dark Pokemon parody series Tomodachi x Monster. The first of the three-volume series will release on February 23, 2016.
Set in a mountainous village in rural Japan, young Wataru discovers a new "friend" who leads him into a hidden world of monsters who befriend young children, and then battle together in horrifying death matches. "With this series you get to watch what really happens when kids with no conscience get hold of monstrous friends to do their bidding. Cute, yet macabre and gory," said Seven Seas publisher Jason DeAngelis. "Tomodachi x Monster is to kids-and-their-monsters series what Magical Girl Apocalypse is to magical girl series."
Seven Seas recently announced three other manga series for 2016 release (see "Seven Seas Adds 'Hour of the Zombie' & 2 More Manga").
