Tomodachi × Monster

In this short but lively series from Seven Seas Entertainment, a young boy discovers that his smartphone has become a portal to a world of monsters, turning everyday life into an adventure. Written by Janet Houck, Lu Huan, and Yoshihiko Inui—who also provides the energetic artwork—Tomodachi × Monster (2016–present) blends friendship, digital-age wonder, and creature-collecting thrills across its three issues. It’s a compact, charming take on the monster-taming genre, capturing the joy of unexpected connections in a modern setting.
