Kadokawa’s Monthly Comic Beam magazine has announced that the Blood Friend (ブラッドフレンド) manga by Mikamoto Rei will end on December 11th, 2026, in the magazine’s January 2027 issue.
Mikomoto (Chimamire Sukeban Chainsaw) started the horror manga in December 2025 in Kadokawa’s Monthly Comic Beam magazine, and Kadokawa published the manga’s first tankoubon volume in June 2026.
The horror manga is set in an old Western-style mansion on the outskirts of town, rumoured to be haunted. A group of school students gather at the mansion for a test of courage, when one of girls is overcome with a terrible premonition and tells the group, “One of us will never come back.”
