Hirayasumi Manga to Conclude in Two Final Chapters
Keigo Shinzō's Hirayasumi manga will conclude with two additional chapters, according to an announcement in the 45th issue of Shogakukan's Weekly Big Comic Spirits. If production schedules remain on track, the series is set to end publication on October 19. The story follows Hiroto Ikuta, a relaxed 29-year-old without a steady job or romantic partner, who navigates life alongside his struggling artist cousin Natsumi and a grumpy elderly neighbor.
The title has achieved significant commercial success, moving over 1.1 million copies globally. Viz Media handles the English release, having published the ninth volume in May. The franchise has expanded into other media, including a live-action drama that aired on NHK in November 2025 and a television anime adaptation scheduled for January 2027.
