Manga:

Yoshihiro Takahashi wrote Ginga Densetsu Weed as a sequel to his original work Ginga Nagareboshi Gin that is set 10 years after the original and that focuses on Gin's son Weed. It initially serializes in Manga Goraku, premiering in 1999. The chapters have been published in collected volumes by Nihonbungeisha. Volume sixty which is the last bound volume of the series came out in September 18 2009 in Japan.

The manga was licensed for an English language release by ComicsOne. Three volumes were released on April 1, 2001 under the shortened name Weed before ComicsOne quietly canceled the series due to low sales. All three volumes are now out-of-print. In 2004, ComicsOne went out of business and DrMaster acquired all of the company's manga licenses. However, DrMaster did not chose to continue the Ginga Legend Weed series. Currently, the license to translate Ginga Legend Weed are up to be sold to a manga company that wants it.
