“Shōnen Jump’s latest manga, Ginka & Glüna, shares similarities with Inuyasha’s main quest, hinting at the possible direction of the story. The manga features two powerful magicians, Ginka (a snowman) and Glüna (his witch apprentice), embarking on a quest to locate and restore Ginka’s original body.
The premise of Ginka & Glüna bears resemblance to Inuyasha, where the main characters journeyed across Japan in search of the shards of the Shikon Jewel. If Ginka & Glüna continues to draw inspiration from Inuyasha, it might provide insight into the overall narrative trajectory.
In Ginka & Glüna, Ginka, once a formidable magician, had his body stolen, resulting in his existence as a snowman. Teaming up with Glüna, he trains her in magic and together they set out to recover his scattered body parts. Chapter 2, “Dragon Slaying,” reveals that these body parts are embedded in magical creatures, such as dragons, granting them immense power. To reclaim his complete body, Ginka and Glüna will likely have to confront numerous formidable adversaries and monsters.
The quest-driven storyline in Ginka & Glüna resembles Inuyasha, where the Shikon Jewel was shattered and scattered across Feudal Era Japan. The main cast of Inuyasha faced the challenge of collecting the shards before the antagonist Naraku could reassemble the Jewel and gain ultimate power. If Ginka & Glüna follows a similar path, it suggests certain elements that can be expected in the story’s progression. Anticipated aspects include battles against powerful enemies to retrieve individual body parts, encounters with characters desiring to utilize Ginka’s power for good or evil, moral dilemmas regarding whether to reclaim certain body parts, forging new alliances, and potential familial connections between Ginka and the individual who stole his body.
Additionally, considering prevailing trends in modern Shōnen Jump manga, Ginka & Glüna’s concept of collecting body parts aligns with series like Chainsaw Man and Jujutsu Kaisen, featuring powerful beings and their fragments. However, the initial tone of Ginka & Glüna suggests a lighter approach, and deviating towards a darker direction, where Ginka turns out to be the ultimate villain, seems unlikely.
Regardless, Ginka & Glüna promises an engaging reading experience with its well-crafted characters, thrilling action, immersive world-building, and a sense of wonder. While drawing inspiration from Inuyasha and other series, it has the potential to become a modern classic as long as it establishes its own unique identity.”
