Furthermore, Kadokawa cannot comment on the continued availability of the digital version, the vertical-scrolling version, and overseas translated versions of the manga, but will make announcements as soon as it is able.


Ah, crud. I hope J-Novel Club will be allowed to publish the seventh volume. Missing that would make the series doubly incomplete...[/code]

Normally cancellations are pretty straightforward.

But to say mistakes were made would be an understatement.

What a tragedy. The manga was a lovely adaptation.

This feels kind of timely after watching Oshi No Ko.

We reached out to J-Novel Club. I updated the article with this as well, but J-Novel stated its license for the manga extended through volume 6. The company added that while it does not comment on ongoing licensing negotiations, "the situation with the original Japanese manga adaptation rights will likely impact any future licensing."
