Actually, I prefer K-On Manga than the anime. Maybe it's just because I read it before watched it. The anime is great but it's too..slow. 4 volumes of manga packed in 2 seasons with total 39 episodes (not including OVA and movie). Well yes, u can please ur eyes and ears in the anime, but the story..I like manga better.

So this news is really shocks me

Personally I think the author is just ending one of the mangas since working on two is difficult. Hopefully he just plans to merge the two.

Hoping for a third season!

Also lol @ haters. Japan loves moe so deal with it.

Heaven forbid people liking the K-ON! franchise.

Anyway, I assume Kakifly stops because it's too much to do two at a time. After all, he'd be working pretty much non-stop on the two mangas and I can easily see that getting very tedious eventually, not to mention stressful.

What I do hope is that this doesn't mean he'll repeat thew high school nits over and over again with newer characters. I think a lot of ans wouldn't forgive him for discarding the old characters they've grown used to and love. Let Azusa and co graduate, and either finish the story there, or continue with all of them in college. As much as Sumire and Nao have become interesting characters, I don't really care if we'll never hear from them again. I always saw them as replacements for the older cast, never really as full-fledged solo characters.

I'm thinking that might be what he's doing, freezing the college arc to let Azusa catch up.

Couldn't have said it better myself.

I'll dedicate my viewing of the inevitable third season of the anime to both of you. Because loooooooool if you think K-ON! is truly going away.


This guy. I pray that it stays popular just so that these butt hurt people will stay butt hurt for the rest of their lives.

And I don't even particularly like K-On. LOOOL

Hopefully it's just as the others have said and he is only stopping one of the mangas to focus on one!

After all it's not like the mangas have been running all that long to begin with, and it would be ending just to soon!

Guess we'll have to see what happens with it.

The new manga has been pretty weak, but I'd be lying if I said I didn't want it to keep on continuing regardless. Kind of a stupid time to end it considering they're only halfway through the school year they started on.

The way I understood it, the High School story was not ending. I'm guessing it's going to continue until Azusa, Ui, and Jun graduate. And then the other 4 will show up for their last performance, and it will end with something like they are all going to the same college, and everything will be all happy again.

The original ended over a year ago. Is that what you're thinking of? This is about the two parallel manga that restarted it after that.
Oh, I didn't know about spin-offs. I thought there's only some 'various artists' thing.

lol... How is manga ending a bad thing? Everything has to end sometime. The only time it's bad is if it's good but got canceled. What's truly irritating is manga that continue publishing past their expiration date.

Thank you. Those who are hating on K-ON! must be the same ones that think Code Geass was written by Shakespeare. *facepalm*
To those who don't like this very popular series, fine. Go about your tiny lifes hating on it.

Anyway, I assume Kakifly stops because it's too much to do two at a time. After all, he'd be working pretty much non-stop on the two mangas and I can easily see that getting very tedious eventually, not to mention stressful.

As much as Sumire and Nao have become interesting characters, I don't really care if we'll never hear from them again. I always saw them as replacements for the older cast, never really as full-fledged solo characters.

I don't think Kakifly did either series justice. Like you said, he was split between the two. If one was given his full attention (like the college series) I think it would have been better. Plus being in college he had a whole blank palette to work from. IMO he just scratched the surface of what the girls could have done. We barely knew about their classes, with being in the club we could have seen them do more performances and even some live shows. Heck, even a chance of meeting guys. I highly doubt all-female colleges are as sterile as they make it out to be.
What if the Hokey Pokey is what it is all about?

It was going to be difficult to pull out new material at the rate the (High School arc) story was going since Azusa was in her final year of high-school and let's face it, once she graduated the story is dead in the water.

I don't even know how the college storyline managed to continue running.

It was only a matter of time.

That being said, I hope they'll eventually animate the rest of the manga material.

Well, I never said it was a bad thing.

It's just amazing to have so many big titles all end one after the other.

And YES, I agree that it's very irritating to see never ending manga.

K-ON! is a slice of life, there NEVER was a plot and there never will be a plot.

And quite frankly I came to love K-ON! because of it's laid back and fun way of storytelling.

There was never the pressure of making some overly complicated plot that eventually goes nowhere....*coughNEGIMAcough*

He should just quit the college manga and continue the high school manga with Azusa. And when they graduate, he should just add some new cast and repeat the high school part every time.

Azusa's arc also ends. The source is the scan of Manga Time Kirara Carat.


Kakifly's K-on! is never made any longer.
So this is the end.

I'm a bit surprised that it is ending so abruptly, but hey, it should've ended before college already. Hope it gets a good ending though, otherwise this whole affair will just come off as messy.

A third season could still be done so easily. KyoAni needs no more than the vaguest outlines of a story to then flesh out. It's not like they didn't already have to do so for the first two seasons. If a third season isn't made, it won't have anything to do with lack of source material.


I also think the third season can be made. After the second season, K-on! changed from Kakifly's into KyoAni's. In the movie, the story is the Anime-original one. And some Anme-original important characters appear.

Himeko, Ichigo, Fuuko, Haruko, Nobuyo and the other classmates never appear in the original Manga story. And so does Satoshi. K-on! is now KyoAni's.
I welcome the new season, but hope no copyright trouble occurs between Kakifly and KyoAni. Such kind of problem sometimes ruins the masterpieces, like Space Battleship Yamato and Candy Candy.

I suppose that's true, but even the second season still generally followed the same events that happened in the manga, albeit being much more detailed and interesting. Considering that the new manga only covers a short six-month period (I would guess September since Azusa and co. are still in their summer uniforms), there isn't a ton of content for KyoAni to cover. I suppose they could take it slow but I don't think there will be much of an ending since this is all pretty abrupt and sudden.

It would also have been nice to see Azusa join the rest in university even for a little bit, but I guess that won't be happening anymore. Oh well...

I think fans know more of the anime than the manga, I could definitely use another arc since I've been waiting for the movie BD's to come out for subs
