The June issue of Akita Shoten's Bessatsu Shōnen Champion magazine revealed on Friday that Yuu Minamoto's Wagamama Honey Holic manga will end in the magazine's next issue in June.
The manga centers on Matoi Shirube, a boy who gets pushed around at school, but secretly yearns to be a proper man. He has a secret adoration for Hachigasaki, the most popular girl in his class, and who buys milk from the convenience store where Matoi works part-time every day. One day, when Hachigasaki is not feeling well, Matoi takes her to the school infirmary, where Hachigasaki accidentally reveals that she is a succubus who wants to suck Matoi's life force. Matoi promises not to reveal her secret, so long as she becomes his girlfriend.
Minamoto launched the manga in Bessatsu Shōnen Champion last August. Akita Shoten published the manga's second compiled book volume on Tuesday.

Minamoto launched her Kamisama Drop manga in Monthly Shōnen Champion in December 2012, and ended it in 2016. Akita Shoten published 11 compiled book volumes for the manga.
