Azur Lane: Slow Ahead! Deets
Mangaka Hori once looked at the Azur Lane franchise and thought, “If we made these waifus cuter and turned the anime into a slice-of-life, we’d be rich.” That’s how this manga came about. Well, that’s not quite right, but I’d like to believe it is. Hori-sensei writes and illustrates the 4-koma Azur Lane Bisoku Zenshin! manga. Ichijinsha has serialized the manga via its Palette magazine since March 2018 and has compiled it into five tankobon volumes.
Azur Lane: Slow Ahead! is one of several Azur Lane spin-offs and one of two adapted into an anime. Yostar Pictures adapted Azur Lane: Queen’s Orders into a two-episode OVA in July 2023. We stock the Queen’s Order manga and loads of other shipgirl goodies and boobies!
