Titan Manga has officially revealed the English cover and a selection of preview pages for Kasuga Dragon’s (Kasuga Ryo) highly anticipated comedy action manga, Isekai Metaller. The first volume is set to launch on October 14, bringing a unique blend of heavy metal and fantasy to Western readers.
Rocking into a New World: The Premise of Isekai Metaller
Isekai Metaller introduces readers to Alex, a dedicated metalhead whose life takes an unexpected turn. After being electrocuted during his band’s final performance, Alex awakens in an unfamiliar world teeming with fantastical creatures such as dragons, werewolves, and various monsters. This isn’t the tranquil afterlife he might have envisioned; instead, it’s a realm where his passion for metal music becomes a formidable power.
The manga’s core concept merges the popular “isekai” (another world) genre with an electrifying rock ‘n’ roll twist. Armed with his trusty “Flying V” guitar, a surprising Level 999 power boost, and an unyielding spirit of rock ‘n’ roll, Alex embarks on a quest to save this new, chaotic world. Titan Manga describes the series as an adventure where “the magic flows like electric riffs and every battle feels like a rock concert,” promising shredding solos for dragons and headbanging battles against werewolves.
Publication Details and Availability
The English release of Isekai Metaller Volume 1 is scheduled for October 14. Fans eager to continue Alex’s musical journey won’t have to wait long, as the second volume is slated for release on January 13, 2026.
Pre-orders for the manga are currently available through major retailers, including Amazon, Barnes & Noble, Books A Million, and Forbidden Planet.

Isekai Metaller originally launched on Hero’s Inc.’s Comiplex website in Japan in March 2024 and is currently ongoing. As of June 5, the series has accumulated four compiled volumes in its home country. This exclusive reveal from Titan Manga provides a first look for English-speaking audiences at the unique artistic style and high-energy action that defines Kasuga Dragon’s work.
