Jun Kumagai, pako, and Daisuke Furuya’s Scar-red manga will move to Shueisha’s Tonari no Young Jump web magazine beginning on March 14, as it was revealed in the February issue of Shueisha’s Miracle Jump magazine revealed on Tuesday.

The manga is based on Rejet and Red Entertainment’s Scar-red Rider XechS romance adventure game but it will get an original story-line for the manga. Funimation streamed the game’s television anime adaptation last July. Here’s a short synopsis for those who don’t know the story yet:

The Blue World, a world symbolizing reason, is under attack by fierce creatures known as the Nightfly O’Note sent from the Red World, a world symbolizing instinct. Elected to lead the Blue World, 17-year-old researcher Akira Asagi will take charge of the combat unit “IS”. These six riders, also called the Scared Rider Xechs, will fight at the Ryuukyuu LAG to protect their world and each other.

Kumagai, the game’s original scenario writer, is writing the manga, while pako, the original character designer, is drawing. Daisuke Furuya (Seraph of the End: Vampire Reign) will do the storyboards. The manga was launched in Miracle Jump last June. Shueisha will publish the manga’s first volume on May 19 this year.
