Kanae Nakanishi to Debut New Manga 'God of Time' on May 22
Time freezes, emotions awaken—God of Time unveils a surreal summer journey.

Honen Jump+, Shueisha's online manga portal, has announced that a new work called Jikan no Kamisama (God of Time) will be serialized from May 22. The new title reunites writer Kanae Nakanishi and artist Furo in a new creative team. The new manga will provide an intriguing mix of fantasy and self-discovery themes.
The film takes place in a world that has inexplicably stopped in time. In this context, the plot is teased to reveal a different and unforgettable summer. As certain aspects of the plot remain confidential, the teaser "In a world where time has stopped, an unforgettable summer begins" readies one for a tale of emotional connect and maybe personal transformation under unusual conditions. The frozen-in-time premise suggests both surreal happenings and character development, so it is potentially a rich field for readers to explore who are interested in more than usual action or love story.

Kanae Nakanishi had also drawn attention in the past for Shojo Null, a title she created in collaboration with illustrator Akima. That series began its run in August 2023 on the same platform and concluded in September 2024. It was released in English on MANGA Plus as well, with Viz Media publishing its second bound volume in April 2025. Shojo Null was praised for its intellectually stimulating themes and unflinching art style, establishing Nakanishi as an important contributor to the contemporary manga scene.
