Production
Kaori Yuki started Fairy Cube with the goal of writing a short series. When deciding on the ending, Yuki considered having Ian and Rin as the sacrifice to close the demon door, but decided against it, not wanting to "leave a nasty aftertaste". She was also unable to include Ian and Tokage's newfound friendship in the manga since the plot focused on the relationship between Ian and Rin. Yuki later reused Raven, a member of the clan who guards the demon door, and Tokage in the spin-off story "Psycho Knocker", in which they chase down and pacify spirits that have escaped from the demon door.
The chapters of Fairy Cube appeared as a serial in the Japanese manga magazine Hana to Yume from 2005 to 2006. Hakusensha collected the chapters into three tankÅbon volumes. The first was released on October 19, 2005; the last was published on July 19, 2006.
At the 2007 Comic-Con International, Viz Media announced that it had licensed Fairy Cube for an English-language release in North America. Viz included a preview of Fairy Cube in the April 2008 issue of its manga anthology Shojo Beat, and published the series from May 1, 2008 to November 4, 2008. The series is also licensed in Singapore by Chuang Yi, in Taiwan by Culturecom Comics, in Germany by Carlsen Comics, in Italy by Panini Comics, and in France by Editions Tonkam.
