Margaret Editors: No Plans for Liar Lily/Usotsuki Lily Anime
posted on by Jennifer Sherman
The official Twitter account of the editors of Shueisha's Margaret magazine announced on Friday that there are currently no plans for an anime adaptation of Ayumi Komura's Liar Lily (Usotsuki Lily) manga. Amazon Japan's listing for the May issue of Shueisha's free electronic publication Margaret Comics News reports that an anime adaptation has been green-lit.
The editors' official blog announced on Thursday that they will "finally publish the moving last chapter" of the slapstick romantic comedy series. The finale will appear in this year's 11th issue of the magazine on May 2.
Komura launched the high school cross-dressing story in Margaret in 2009, and Shueisha will publish the 15th volume on April 25. The manga already inspired a Vomic (comic with voices) with Asuka Ōgame and Yūki Kaji in the lead roles.

Update: Amazon Japan's listing has been updated to state that Ao Haru Ride has a television anime green-lit, not Liar Lily.
