With the manga that has been announced so far, 2023 is looking to be one of the most thrilling years for manga. The number of licenses English manga publishers are obtaining as of late is exciting, and with the growing popularity of manga, much more is on the way. If 2022’s new manga releases are an indication, the year is bound to be full of amazing releases.

In 2023, it looks like publishers are going after a mix of old and new series that have yet to be published in English, including more releases from incredible authors like Sui Ishida, the creator of one of my favorite horror manga Tokyo Ghoul, and Tatsuki Fujimoto, the creator of Chainsaw Man and Fire Punch. I also included new manga format releases, like omnibuses, collector’s editions, or manga box sets, if they are beginning serialization or are being released for the first time in 2023.

With so many new licenses being announced every week, it can be difficult to keep track of all the new manga releases coming in a year. I wrote up this post in hopes that it would be helpful for those of you looking for a comprehensive list. I also compiled a list of all the continuing manga volumes that are releasing in 2023 if you’d like to check that out.

That all being said, here are all of the new manga series that are releasing in 2023 so far! I will continue to update this post as more series are announced for 2023 release.

2023 New Manga Release Calendar

Keep in mind that publishers may change the release dates listed in this post. Delays are more common now than ever before with the current state of the world, printer shortages, shipping delays, etc. All release dates were sourced from the publishers’ official websites. I will do my best to update release dates if there are delays confirmed by the publisher or stores.

That all being said, here are all of the new manga series that will be released in 2023! I’ve split the new manga releases up by month, so you can hopefully find what you are looking for easier.
