Wow. This is depressing. I remember it being reported as entering the climax but Bleach did that like 6 times before ending so I had hope. Anime cry. Looks like S2 of the anime will be pretty short....if they ever make it.

I hope they make a season 2 or even better I hope someone will pick this up for a English release.

Not SKET Dance as well . . . so many big-name Manga are ending this year.

One of my favorite series and it's sad to see it go.

If they make a part 2 of the anime it could run for a year at 52 episodes since they only have a little over 100 chapters after the anime ended, depending on pacing.

I don't see Viz picking this up at this stage. It's too long.

I'm not sure if this was considered a comedy or not, but if it was, that would be a strike against it too.

I would love to buy this manga, I don't care if in single volumes, omnibus editions or whatnot (as long as it is actually printed) and I know the chances of Viz picking this up are close to zero, but a fan can dream, right?

I guess I'll just have to go see where the scanlations are up to for now. Reading the last chapter is going to be so depressing.

All good things come to end.

It sucks, but what can you do? I just hope something as much heart and original humor comes along fill in the void in the future.

Frankly, one the things for me will last a long time is the music from the anime. They had some really good J-Rock music on that show.

VIZ does not like picking up comedy series, especially after Gintama failed hard for them.

^Terrible shame as Gintama (what little I've read) is pretty damn good, even their localisation is pretty solid.

Sounds like it's about time to start the manga then.
I've heard good word about the work and the anime based on it.
