The official Twitter account for Kadokawa‘s Comic Newtype web manga site announced on Monday that Yugata Tanabe will launch a new manga titled Tantei no Shikigami (Shikigami of Detective) on the site on Tuesday at 11 a.m. JST.

The manga’s mysterious tale centers on a sorcerer detective with a bad attitude, a cute and strong shikigami doll taking the form of a human, and a good-natured high school boy.

Tanabe’s The Splendid Work of a Monster Maid (Kaibutsu Maid no Kareinaru Oshigoto) manga ended in May 2022. Tanabe launched the manga on the Comic Newtype web manga site in April 2020, and Kadokawa published the fifth and final volume in July 2022. Yen Press published the manga’s fifth volume in English on June 20.
