School of Beastly Island – Stranded (vol. 1)

Stranded on a remote island, Tapio and his sister soon discover that it’s home to a school for magically gifted children. Lots of magic, excitement, crazy monsters, and a school that’s out of control – this promises to be a jumbo portion of adventure! 

Just like CAT GIRLS and REN, BEASTLY ISLAND is aimed at manga-loving girls and boys who would like to read novels with a large proportion of manga. For each manga-story series, Carlsen has developed a thoughtful series concept that speaks directly to its target group.  

Vol. 2 is due in May 2025, vol. 3 is due in September 2025.
