Boichi, the acclaimed South Korean artist renowned for his dynamic artwork in the hit manga series Dr. Stone, is set to launch a new manga titled “The Marshal King”. The series will debut on the Shonen Jump+ app on February 7, 2025, marking a significant shift in genre for the artist as he ventures into a Wild West setting.

A New Frontier for Boichi

Boichi, whose real name is Park Mu-jik, has been a prominent figure in both the Korean manhwa and Japanese manga industries. Born in Seoul on January 29, 1973, he initially pursued a degree in physics, followed by graduate studies in image technology, before dedicating himself to his passion for creating manga. His diverse background has significantly influenced his work, allowing him to seamlessly blend intricate artistic detail with compelling narratives.

From Science to the Wild West

Best known for his detailed and expressive art style in Dr. Stone, which was written by Riichiro Inagaki, Boichi’s previous works include Sun-Ken Rock, a crime-action series, and Origin, a science fiction manga set in a dystopian Tokyo. He has also contributed to spin-offs such as One Piece Episode A: Ace no Boken. Now, he is set to bring his unique style to the Western genre with “The Marshal King”, a series that he will both write and illustrate. This marks a departure from his previous collaborations, showcasing his capabilities as a solo creator.

The Marshal King: A Tale of the Desert

“The Marshal King” promises to be a dramatic and action-packed series. The initial plot details reveal a story centered around a young boy who claims to be the son of a notorious outlaw. The narrative takes a dark turn as the boy kills his father for unknown reasons and embarks on a journey across the desert, carrying his father’s corpse. This unique premise is expected to offer a blend of action and emotional depth, characteristics often seen in Boichi’s previous work.

What to Expect

Fans can expect Boichi’s signature detailed artwork and dynamic action sequences to be prominently featured in the new series. The promotional image released shows the silhouette of a dual-pistol-wielding gunslinger, hinting at the intense action sequences that the manga is likely to offer. The bi-weekly release schedule on Shonen Jump+ will allow fans to follow the story at a consistent pace.

Boichi’s Journey to Manga Mastery

Boichi’s path to becoming a successful manga artist has been marked by determination and a passion for storytelling. He debuted in a Korean shoujo manga magazine in 1993 and gained popularity before moving to Japan to pursue his dream of creating manga. His earlier works, like Ultimate Space Emperor Caesar, and series in adult magazines, laid the foundation for his later success. In an interview, Boichi mentioned that working in Japan provided him with artistic freedom he had not experienced before, and he is grateful for the opportunity to work with talented Japanese artists and editors.

Influences and Style

Boichi’s artistic style is characterized by detailed character designs, dynamic action sequences, and a unique approach to panel layouts. His background in physics is reflected in the scientific themes often present in his work, which are particularly evident in Dr. Stone. His ability to blend genres and create compelling narratives has garnered him a large international fanbase. He often expresses that anyone with a pen and paper can become a manga artist, as long as they practice diligently, a testament to his hard work and dedication.

The Future of Shonen Jump+

With the conclusion of popular series such as Jujutsu Kaisen and My Hero Academia last year, Shueisha is likely hoping that “The Marshal King” will become the next big hit in Shonen Jump+. The publisher is looking to maintain its high standards, and Boichi’s new manga is expected to play a crucial role in this. The series will be available internationally on the MANGA Plus app by SHUEISHA, allowing fans worldwide to enjoy the new manga.

Other New Series on MANGA Plus

Alongside “The Marshal King”, MANGA Plus is launching other new series in February, including:

  • Darkest Corners of the Heart by Yuho Amayo (February 2) – a horror manga.
  • Mekkoku no Kangan by Kei Saikawa and Kotaro Shono (February 10) – a suspenseful tale with harem elements.
  • Imanin by Asako Mabuchi and Kohei Ando (February 20) – a workplace rom-com about a modern-day ninja.
  • Love is Overkill by Ashima Asutora (February 25) – A “love comedy” with dark themes of embalming love and death.

These new releases showcase the platform’s diverse offerings and commitment to providing readers with a variety of engaging content.

Anticipation for “The Marshal King”

Fans of Boichi’s previous works are eagerly anticipating the release of “The Marshal King”. The series’ unique premise and setting, combined with Boichi’s distinctive art style, make it a highly anticipated title. The artist himself has expressed excitement about the new project and hopes it will resonate with his fans. With the launch just days away, readers worldwide are preparing to embark on this new Wild West adventure.
