Gokurakugai, the manga series by Yuto Sano, has surpassed 1.2 million copies in circulation with the release of Volume 5 on May 2. To commemorate this milestone, a striking large-scale advertisement has been launched at Tokyu Shibuya Station starting May 5.

Serialized in Jump SQ. since its August 2022 issue, Gokurakugai quickly garnered attention for its exceptional artwork and gripping narrative.
