Karate Survivor in Another World (Manga) (2025)

When 34-year-old Nozaki Hitoshi is hit by a truck, he is sent to a fantasy world by a dismissive god and dropped into a harsh wilderness without even the clothes on his back. His only salvation is a newly granted karate skill and his general survival instincts. Luckily, Hitoshi is up for the challenge - he'll weave clothes out of tree bark, test fruit for poison, and crawl through the mud to test his kicks and punches against goblins and other creatures. No matter how much he levels up in this world, he still longs to find other humans to share his solitude. An engrossing fantasy that pits karate technique against swords and sorcery in another world!

BARE KNUCKLE, BLACK STEEL!To survive the lawless land of Rock Cliff, the otherworldly Nomad has no choice but to transcend the Level 15 limit most adventurers fail to breach. Though warned against even attempting it, he leads his party into the wilderness to find, confront, and kill a monster worthy of the greatest heroes! But will the empty-handed fighting style of karate suffice against the stony skin of the nigh-invulnerable Rock Lizard, or will another member of the party use a magic weapon to gain the glory?!

HUNTER, HUNTED!Nomad commits a crime so that his comrades can escape, and now he hides deep within a forest teeming with monsters. His survival skills have failed, though, as he is soon discovered by a group of rangers looking to collect the bounty on Nomad's head! And then a mysterious stranger with a shocking secret enters the fray! Is this the end of Nomad's journey?

ENTER THE DRAGON!Nomad is once again forced to lay low in the woods, and while in hiding, he encounters a wounded baby dragon! It's not always kill-or-be-killed even in this grim other-world, so Nomad nurses the beast back to health, and the quest continues. Their destination is Katori Village, a place famed for their delicious fish. Nomad’s mission is to dine upon the dragon fish, the mythic pinnacle of pescetarian cuisine. But there’s trouble brewing in town, and Nomad better watch out if he doesn't want to get roasted!

KNOCK-DOWN DRAG-OUT!Nomad reaches Khatori Village to get a taste of the legendary Dragon Fish, but instead finds himself in trouble with the fishermen's headman, Mergo! Mergo is faster and stronger than Nomad, but he manages to score a knockdown against the headman! But this fight ain’t a fair one—will Nomad be able to wrest victory from his frenzied foe, or will Mergo’s bloodlust rule the day?!

THIS AIN'T NO WALK IN THE PARK!The Abyssal Forest is an accursed place that had, hitherto, remained untouched by human exploration. Then Nomad shows up at the closest outpost of human civilization, and is rejected by the local guild due to his “insufficient contribution”! He has no choice but to complete risky missions with paltry rewards to get his promotion approved. His latest tasks seems simple enough—collect some herbs. The herbs just happen to be found in only one place...the conveniently located but utterly deadly Abyssal Forest!
