VIZ Announces ‘Tista’ A New Assassin Manga From The Creator Of ‘Spy X Family’
by Tito W. James
Tista leads a dual life as both the grim reaper of New York City and a university student studying to be a teacher. With extraordinary eyesight allowing her to make long-range shots with unrivaled accuracy, she has come to be feared by the criminal underground. Tista knows she’s doomed, but can her feelings for a young man she just met bring her back from the abyss? And what will she do if he finds out who she really is?
Tista is an earlier work from Tatsuya Endo, before the smash hit of Spy x Family. Tista is darker in tone and only lasted for two volumes in the original Japanese release. It is unclear whether VIZ plans of releasing two volumes or a single omnibus. I’d love to read an edgier assassin story from the creator of Spy x Family. However, it remains to be seen if Tista can deliver a satisfying story self-contained story for an English audience.
