Shueisha’s MANGA Plus platform has added The Hero’s Bereaved Family, a fantasy title where the numerous spawn of a deceased world-saving hero compete for his inheritance.
The manga from Maki Kanemaki (Mary-chan no Hitsuji) debuted on Tonari no Young Jump in late January 2026.
Here’s the synopsis:
The hero who defeated the Demon King and saved the world has died. Gil, a half-elf who carries his blood, heads eagerly to the funeral of the “father he’s never met” after hearing about an inheritance, but…?! The womanizing hero’s love-starved children collide in a ruthless, blood-soaked inheritance battle! Will it end in a mountain of corpses… or something else entirely?! A rare and outrageous post-adventure isekai story!!
MANGA Plus contains seven chapters of The Hero’s Bereaved Family at the time of writing. Tonari no Young Jump debuted the eighth on March 20, 2026 (JST).
