The Violence Action manga will have an adaptation project

In the sixth compilation volume of the manga written by Shin Sawada and illustrated by Renji Asai, Violence Action, it was revealed that the play "will inspire an adaptation to the screen." The statement did not reveal what kind of adaptation it will have, so it could range from an anime to a play.


Sawada and Asai began publishing the manga in Shogakukan publisher Yawaraka Spirits digital magazine in April 2016. The play paused between March 2018 and June 2019 due to the author's poor condition. The publisher published the fifth compilation volume in November 2019, and this manga has achieved good popularity in Japan, reaching a place in the list of recommendations for male readers, Kono Manga ga Sugoi! of the year 2018.

Synopsis of Violence Action

The story centers on Kei Kikuno, an assassin who on the outside looks like a kind and beautiful neighborhood girl, but is actually a talented hitman. Kei skillfully "takes over" the jobs through her weapon skills and physical power. Can you keep up appearances forever?
