6th on the list is an exceptionally underestimated Science Fiction and Boy’s Love series penned by Atsuko Asano. Originally released as a light novel in 2003, it was transformed into a manga in 2011, coincidentally the same year the novel ceased publication. The manga persisted for two more years before wrapping up. Interestingly, Studio Bones produced an anime adaption that premiered in 2011 as well, but it only aired its first season. Regardless of its lack of global recognition, it remains highly acclaimed and boasts a loyal following of fans.
14 years have passed since the original story of the light novel “No. 6” came to an end, and author Atsuko Asano is set to release a sequel titled “No. 6: Reunion“. The book can currently be preordered on Amazon Japan for 2019 yen, with an official release date of May 28, 2025. It’s expected that the English version will follow shortly after. The sequel delves into the unique bond between characters Shion and Nezumi, as they strive to create a better world together. Asano says, “I’m happy to bring ‘No. 6’ back to you after 14 years.
The long-awaited sequel to NO.6, titled “NO.6: Reunion,” is now on its way! Two years have passed since the conclusion of the original story, and Shion is overseeing the reconstruction of NO.6. However, numerous obstacles stand in his way. As whispers of Nezumi’s return circulate, their destined encounter edges ever closer. Will they be able to build a world that is free from oppression?

Plot of No.6: Reunion
In the year 2013, our tale unfolds in the city of No. 6, a utopian metropolis under tight control. Our protagonist, Shion, a talented youth, assists an injured outlaw named Nezumi on his 12th birthday. This act leads to their exile from the city along with Shion’s mother, forcing them to live in the slums. After four years, as a perplexing illness that targets humans begins to claim lives, Shion is wrongly implicated in these deaths. In an attempt to rescue him, Nezumi reappears, and together they delve into the hidden truths of their city.
The two discover that the city has concealed its past and the lethal bees carrying parasites which cause deadly infections. Yet, while Shion plans to reform city No. 6, he is weighed down by Nezumi’s aim of obliterating it completely. Their voyage eventually brings them face-to-face with the city’s top brass in a climactic showdown.
In the passage of time, exactly two years since our separation from No. 6, I find myself chairing the reconstruction committee. Yet, amidst the rubble, political instability looms, and an enigmatic figure lurks with intentions to disrupt the city’s tranquility. Desperate for assistance, I yearn for Nezumi, believing he may be nearby based on rumors that have reached my ears. As fate brings us back together, we embark on a journey fraught with peril and deception, our common goal being to mend the world that once was ours.
