Oshii's manga Kerberos & Tachiguishi was serialized in Monthly Comic Ryū in 2006 and 2007. The follow-up of 1990s famous Bio Diver Xenon (重機甲兵ゼノン) by Masaomi Kanzaki, Xenon -199X R-, was also serialized in the magazine. Most famous published series was probably Legend of the Galactic Heroes by Yoshiki Tanaka and Katsumi Michihara though. Monthly Comic Ryū was launched as an "over 30-years-old readers recommended" magazine.[2]
