VIZ Media and MANGA Plus both began publishing MILLION TAG reality show winner Naoki Fujita’s Beat & Motion manga in English on February 24, 2023.

Fujita is the winner of Shonen Jump+‘s “battle audition” show MILLION TAG in 2021, where six teams, each with a prospective manga creator and a Shueisha manga editor, competed in four challenges. Fujita’s partnered manga editor from Shueisha was Shihei Rin (editor of Chainsaw Man and Spy x Family).

Aside from getting his manga serialized on Shonen Jump+, Fujita also won five million yen (about US$45,000 at that time), a compiled book volume of his manga, and an anime adaptation that will stream globally and exclusively on Netflix.
