Mad Cave Studios imprint Nakama Press has announced the publication of a young adult, post-apocalyptic manhua fantasy, Pandola, and K-Comics Beat has all the details.
From Hong Kong-based creator Keung Chi Kit, Pandola will be printed in English for the first time in a newly-translated edition from Book Buddy Media, including new pages. The story follows a chosen one narrative across a sprawling landscape that will challenge a group of young heroes with magic, combat, and more.
Here’s the official synopsis:
In a world where gods and mortals collide, destiny takes the form of a single boy. When a mysterious artifact awakens the power of Pandola, young heroes are thrust into a battle that will decide the fate of their realm. Across enchanted forests, corrupted kingdoms, and ancient ruins, they must uncover long-buried secrets—and face enemies who would rather see the world burn than lose their grip on power.
“I’m very happy Pandola will be released in English,” said Keung Chi Kit. “I added 10 new pages to this edition to make the story more complete. The story is about people with different ideals confronting seemingly unbeatable enemies, and I poured many of my ideas and hopes into it. I hope readers find inspiration that resonates with situations in the real world.”
Pandola will be available everywhere books are sold on May 5, 2026.
