With Atsuo Ueda taking over from Mashima as the primary artist, the 100 Years Quest manga began its run in 2018 and is currently ongoing.

Mashima is still involved with 100 Years Quest, working as the manga's writer and storyboarding its visuals. The English version of the manga is published by Kodansha US. At the time of this writing, an English release of Fairy Tail: 100 Years Quest has not yet been announced.
