Yukari Amatsu's fantasy manga starts in English with a September 22 first volume from Yen Press.

Mage of Leda has reached English readers in a first volume from Yen Press. The publisher lists 22 September for both its paperback and digital editions of Yukari Amatsu's fantasy manga. Ornia begins the story after repeated rejection by adoptive families. An offer to train under a mage looks like an escape from the

orphanage, but the publisher's synopsis signals that the apprenticeship has hidden forces around it. The opening premise therefore gives the young protagonist both a goal and a reason to question the opportunity that seems to have saved him. A new series to start at volume one Yen classifies the book as fantasy, action

and sword-and-sorcery. It credits Giuseppe di Martino for translation and Amethyst Xuan for lettering. The 240-page volume is rated teen; its release is the English edition's entry point rather than a later chapter of an established English run. The official listing provides retailer links for each format, with stock

and digital availability depending on location. Readers interested in the artwork can use the publisher's preview and cover to judge whether this particular blend of difficult childhood and magical training is for them. Headline image: official English volume-one cover; Yukari Amatsu / Yen Press.
