Mozukuzu, the manga artist behind the Dungeon Farm adaptation, has launched a new series. The 157th issue of Kadokawa’s Dengeki Daioh G magazine debuted Mozukuzu’s Kemomimi Miko no Isekai Jinja Saikō-ki: Kami-sama ga Kureta Kiseki no Chikara no sei de Matsurare Sugite Komattemasu on Monday.
The New Series
The title translates roughly to “The Story of a Shrine Maiden With Animal Ears Reviving a Shrine in Another World: I’m Troubled by Being Worshipped Too Much Because of the Miraculous Power a God Gave Me.” It is an adaptation of a novel of the same name written by Mizuho Itsuki with illustrations by risumi.
The story centers on Suzuka Mimori, a high school girl who works as a shrine maiden at her family’s shrine. One day she is caught up in a mysterious vortex and transported to another world. There, she receives a letter from the enshrined deity — a god once worshipped as a divine beast but now forgotten — who wants Suzuka to serve as a shrine maiden and gather worshippers once again.
To help her do that, the god grants her a mysterious power that lets her perform “miracles,” and also gives her fox ears and a tail, apparently based on the god’s own preference. Kadokawa published the original novel in September 2024.
Who Is Behind It
Mozukuzu previously drew the manga adaptation of Ryūichi Suzuki’s Dungeon Farm: Kicked Out of My Home, So I’m Homesteading in a Dungeon! light novel series, which launched in Square Enix’s Gangan Online website in August 2023. That manga ended with its fourth compiled book volume, which shipped in October 2025, and Square Enix’s Manga UP! Global service published it in English digitally.
The new series’ writer, Mizuho Itsuki, is best known for the Management of a Novice Alchemist light novel, giving the project a pairing of an experienced light-novel author and a manga artist with a completed adaptation already behind them.
Why It Matters
Mozukuzu is moving from one completed adaptation to a fresh one, which is a common path for manga artists who want to stay on the adaptation track rather than shift into original work. For readers who followed Dungeon Farm through Manga UP! Global, the new title offers a similar isekai premise told through a different lens: instead of homesteading in a dungeon, the protagonist is rebuilding a forgotten shrine and its following.
The launch also continues Dengeki Daioh G’s run of new serialisations this year, adding another title to a magazine that has been active in bringing new manga to its pages. Recent additions include Katsuwo’s Oja no Ban Kuruwase Shogi, another title that debuted in the same publication. As always, whether the series finds an English release will depend on a licensor picking it up, but its Kadokawa and Dengeki Daioh G pedigree puts it in the pool of titles Western publishers regularly watch.
For now, the first chapter is out in Japan, and the series joins a growing slate of new manga launches competing for readers in the crowded isekai space — the same field that has seen a steady stream of debuts, such as Shinoblade from Killing Bites writer Shinya Murata.
