Minami began serializing the action comedy manga in Weekly Young Magazine from November 2014 to November 2019. A manga sequel began in July 2021 in the same magazine. Kodansha shipped the sequel's seventh volume on May 8, with the eighth volume scheduled to go on sale on August 4. The Fable has a cumulative of over 22 million copies in circulation.
Kodansha USA licensed the first manga series in English in March 2022 and released the 15th volume on June 13. The 16th volume will ship on July 11.
The Fable won at the 41st Kodansha Manga Awards in the General category in 2017. The manga was also placed twice in the Kono Manga ga Sugoi! rankings in the Male Readers' Top 20 in the 2019 and 2020's editions.
Synopsis
Fable is a legendary hitman who has completed numerous jobs for a variety of clients. After concluding his latest assignment, the number of people he has recently killed becomes too high, and Fable is ordered by his boss to lay low for a year. He is suggested that having to adapt to life as an ordinary citizen might prove a valuable experience for his future work.
Fable is to be accompanied by the woman who acts as his driver, and the two will assume new identities as siblings. However, their boss warns them that they will both face a deadly punishment if Fable kills anyone during his time off. Thus begins Akira and Youko Satou's joint one-year sabbatical from the underworld. [Written by MAL Rewrite]
