FX Fighter Kurumi‑chan launched on December 29 and draws from an existing manga that centers on a girl whose mother is liquidated trading FX and dies, warning her never to trade - but she becomes a quant anyway.
The manga is packed with degen jokes and references, and the author, @demk0814, isn’t just an artist - they’re a trader too.
The community behind Kurumi is working to redirect the creator fees to the manga’s creator.
Within hours of launch, the dev had already raised $18,000 for the author. Kurumi also reached $1.6M in volume in under four hours.
