COMISMA has signed an agreement with London-based Akili International to develop and produce an English-language live-action film of Teito Yuzuriha’s Zukyun x Bakyun. Robby Monroe is attached to write the screenplay and direct. The action romantic comedy pairs Dan, a former mercenary and hitman, with Lyla, an equally

formidable fighter. Their expertise at dangerous missions offers little help once an awkward confession turns them into a couple. Akili says casting is underway, but the announcement names no performers or release date. COMISMA says the completed manga has five digital volumes. Seven Seas separately confirms English

print and digital editions for 2027, giving readers a publishing route while the adaptation takes shape. Read the official source. Image: Teito Yuzuriha / COMISMA; official Zukyun x Bakyun manga artwork accompanying the film agreement.
