 The official Twitter of Lily Hoshino's Otome Youkai Zakuro (Girl Demon Zakuro) manga announced on Thursday that it is resuming after a 7-year-hiatus on the Comic Boost website in Fall 2023. The manga was put on hold in 2016 due to Hoshino's maternity leave.Hoshino began serializing the supernatural fantasy manga in Comic Birz magazine in April 2006. Gentosha shipped the tenth volume in March 2015. A 13-episode television anime produced by J.C.Staff aired in Fall 2010. NIS America licensed the anime in North America in 2012 and released it on DVD in June of the same year. Crunchyroll is streaming the anime with English subtitles. Synopsis Second Lieutenant Kei Agemaki, the son of a famous general, has hidden his extreme fear of paranormal beings all his life. However, when he and two others are reassigned to live and work with youkai in the Ministry of Spirit Affairs, he is brought face-to-face with his worst nightmare. Now with the help of the fox spirit Kushimatsu, he and his fellow officers must learn to work alongside youkai maidens—Zakuro, Susukihotaru, Hoozuki, and Bonbori—to solve paranormal cases. Set in the midst of an alternate version of Japanese Westernization, Otome Youkai Zakuro explores the clashes and unions that can occur when east meets west, local meets foreign, and women meet men. The unusual alliance of the youkai maidens and human officers must learn to work together in a world that is changing around them. [Written by MAL Rewrite] Source: Comic Natalie |

| Pretty awesome for OYZ fans. =) Watched the anime long ago. |

| Even though the author is an experienced BL artist, she made a pretty good straight action with cute female character designs. |

| After reading the synopsis, it sounds like I need to check out this anime now....Seems like my cup of tea |
| Hopefully she will come back and to finish this, hiatus always get me nervous, we have more than enough examples of manga suck on hiatus for too long. |
 |
| Hoshino has 2 kids, so it could be the cause of the hiatus considering she gave birth to them during the hiatus. At least she'll finish her manga now. |
 |
| woaaahh, these are some truly pleasing news, I hope she comes back full force! |
| I did not know it had a manga, may as well peek it or rewatch the adaptation |
