'Kaguya-sama wa Kokurasetai' Manga Ends Seven-Year Serialization
The 31st issue of Weekly Young Jump announced on Thursday that Aka Akasaka's Kaguya-sama wa Kokurasetai: Tensai-tachi no Renai Zunousen (Kaguya-sama: Love is War) manga will end in 14 chapters. The manga is expected to conclude its seven and a half year-run on October 6.
Akasaka began the romantic comedy manga in Miracle Jump in May 2015 and transferred it to Young Jump the following March. Shueisha published the 26th volume on June 17 (pictured right). Kaguya-sama wa Kokurasetai has a cumulative 18 million copies of its compiled volumes in circulation.
A-1 Pictures adapted the manga into three anime seasons in Winter 2019, Spring 2020, and Spring 2022.
Aniplex of America licensed the first season and simulcast it on Crunchyroll, Funimation, and Hulu. The company also released the season on home video on February 18. Funimation exclusively simulcast the second season and subsequently began streaming an English dub. Crunchyroll simulcast the third season as it aired in Japan.
VIZ Media licensed the manga in English under its Shonen Jump imprint in February 2018 and published the 22nd volume on April 5. The 23rd volume will ship on August 2.
Kaguya-sama wa Kokurasetai placed first in the Comics division at the 3rd Tsugi ni Kuru Manga Taisho in August 2017—a joint award by Kadokawa's Da Vinci literature magazine and streaming platform Niconico. The manga also won the 65th Shogakukan Manga Award in the general category alongside Ao Ashi.
Synopsis
Considered a genius due to having the highest grades in the country, Miyuki Shirogane leads the prestigious Shuchiin Academy's student council as its president, working alongside the beautiful and wealthy vice president Kaguya Shinomiya. The two are often regarded as the perfect couple by students despite them not being in any sort of romantic relationship.
However, the truth is that after spending so much time together, the two have developed feelings for one another; unfortunately, neither is willing to confess, as doing so would be a sign of weakness. With their pride as elite students on the line, Miyuki and Kaguya embark on a quest to do whatever is necessary to get a confession out of the other. Through their daily antics, the battle of love begins! [Written by MAL Rewrite]
