"Martian Alien" previously launched "LOST MISSION I Moon Memories" written by Naoki Prize-winning author Akihira Higashiyama. The second work "LOST MISSION II Return to the Sorrowful Mother" was written by Yumeaki Hirayama, the author of "Monologue of the World Yokohama Projection Map". It tells the story of a 9-year-old boy who secretly went to Mars in a Mars research ship while Kokichi, Hiruma and others went to Mars. Now a promotional picture of this work has been exposed. The girl holding a dagger in the picture shows a very fierce look. It seems that this will be a work with a very intense plot. Yumeaki Hirayama's description of horror events and supernatural phenomena is highly praised in the industry. I hope that this time he can also bring a work that will not disappoint readers.
