Production
Kazuma Kodaka used one of her doujinshi, a one-shot called "Fierce Love”, as the first chapter of Kizuna. She developed the story using characters from Sessa Takuma, which she had previously published in 1989 in Weekly Shōnen Champion. According to Kat Avila of the comics webzine Sequential Tart, "When Kizuna was just a doujinshi, her current editor took it to the Biblos company president who didn't like it. Her editor told him, 'You can fire me if it doesn't sell.' Fortunately, Kizuna went on to become successful."
