Kingdom Hearts Final Mix manga releases tomorrow

The Kingdom Hearts manga returns to the west tomorrow, May 28.

We already reported the acquisition of the Kingdom Hearts manga series by Yen Press, but that was a few months ago. Here’s a reminder so you don’t forget to go to your local bookstore or order online!

Yen Press will be releasing the manga in two omnibus editions, both of which will be available tomorrow. Expect a new translation and a few new scenes, since this will be the Final Mix version of the manga (just like the Final Mix version of the game). Please look forward to a review in the near future that analyzes the manga series while comparing it to the previous Tokyopop version!

The next Yen Press release will be the manga version of Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories, due out next month in one omnibus.

Update/Author’s Note: It has been brought to my attention that the Final Mix manga doesn’t contain new scenes, beyond a few panel corrections here and there. My sincerest apologies for not checking this information first; I was in a hurry, but that’s really no excuse. I’m sorry!
