Release date: March 2026
Summary: Saburo is an average kid, or at least he tries to be, but the weird precision is shocking. First, a weird weird samurai hairstyle wanders around his town, and then his grandfather builds an honest Gothic time machine that looks like a giant metal smoking pipe. A quick test of pipeline timing brought the poor boy into the outer realm of space, where the robot, the space captain and a girl who looked very similar to the friend at home awaited him. Put all limbs in the pipe and prepare for a fun, fast paced and very strange adventure on the pipe table!

Greetings to everyone Comic-Con. I’m Shinkuro Koma. I can’t express in words how happy it is to publish my comics Mavericks would publish my work “From the Temple of Tanukee” in English. There aren’t a lot of full-color hand-painted comics out there, and I didn’t know it would be compared to digital comics because there might be some rough spots. But I hope you will enjoy the power and warmth that you can only get from drawing old fashioned ways. I hope English readers will enjoy and enjoy this series.
