Cause the manga ended and shonen jump anime exist to promote the manga.

It is a shame the anime never got a proper conclusion, but I love what shaft did with what we got. Btw, it's wild to think that Bokuben, the spiritual successor to Nisekoi is already ending. The unstoppable march of time is cruel indeed.

One could ask the same question about Slam Dunk, Reborn, Toriko and many other successful Shonen Jump series. Sadly, a complete anime adaptation is the exception, not the rule.

I wish they had gotten to adapt the ending just so Nao Toyama could finally have one in the "win" column (that and we never got to see Yui).

I wonder if Aniplex will ever re-release this with a dub. Probably not anytime soon and without another season.

Same with Shonen Magazine and Shonen Sunday series. No wonder most animes never got a proper manga adaptation, including manga endings.

Complete anime adaptations are sadly -- rare.(Fairy Tail manga ended in 2016 but got third and final season in 2018 and it get manga ending in anime.)

Anime = advertisement for manga.

I like harem stories, I like Harem comedies, I never warmed up to Nisekoi which always came off as trying too hard... post 2010 WSJ? say no more. The time of Ichigao 100% is long past for WSJ.

Where did I give up, was it the third girl with a lock or the second girl with a lock? Sorry, I was thinking of Ghostbusters as Raku wasn't the keymaster he was the gatekeeper... Ha.
"Which girl has the key to his heart?"

It was a harem story because Raku was completely "keyless", I see...
