Silver Mountain (Japanese: シルバーマウンテン, Hepburn: Shirubā Maunten) is a Japanese manga series written and illustrated by Kazuhiro Fujita. It has been serialized in Shogakukan's shōnen manga magazine Weekly Shōnen Sunday since May 2025.
In 1820, the Japanese scholar Hirata Atsutane encounters a peculiar boy named Torakichi (寅吉). The youth speaks with an unsettling maturity, and he reveals a fantastic secret: he is not from this era. Torakichi claims to have been spirited away by tengu—supernatural beings of the mountains—and brought from the future. Having traveled through time, he now exists in a rejuvenated, childlike body. Under the alias Ginbē Haigō (拝郷 銀兵衛, Haigō Ginbē), he begins to recount his incredible and otherworldly experiences to the fascinated Hirata.
