For anyone coming to discover the amazing manga called "Boy meets Maria" or wanting to hear more news about the author future developments i bring to y'all some sad news about its creator, "PEYO". Sadly he passed away in august 19 (2020) at the age of 23. The family preferred to maintain the reason of death undisclosed (the post, before editing said suicide, which enwhere at the end false).....nontheless, i needed to inform everyone because of the emptyness in the news tab in the description of the manga. i hope we all can enjoy his amazing creations, remembering him while reading every page. I wish that everyone reading this is safe in this hard times (Covid). (Sorry if i misspelled something, english is not my first language)

Heya, Fedran! I deeply appreciate your kindness... I'd never know about this if you didn't post this. According to most sources, there's no clear information about what happened, tough.

I hope everyone is doing well too. The manga was recently licensed in Spain and it looks like, once again, it's not a very popular one out there, so... I hope his family and friends are doing well. I'm sure he will stay in many hearts forever.

Good luck and please stay safe, y'all!

She was sick then died

It's a "he" and also I believe the cause of death is undisclosed: "The editorial department for Kodansha's Monthly Shonen Magazine announced on Saturday that manga creator Kōsei Eguchi passed away on August 19. Eguchi was 23.
The statement said that Eguchi was hospitalized with an emergency on August 17, and passed away two days later. The statement did not give a cause of death."

The most plausible reason seem to be overwork. While people in the west read manga for free on pirate sites, the actual authors will sacrifice their physical and mental health just to keep their manga going, to the point where they need to be hospitalized, and some, such as this author, will unfortunately pass away.
You can buy lossless digital music from your favorite Japanese artists on https://ototoy.jp/.
The songs are all DRM-free and you can re-download your purchased albums as you wish.
Show your support to your favorite artist if you can!
ps. if you are looking for Japanese albums, you have to search it in Japanese (not romaji). Just copy and paste the name.

Yes you’re right, I can’t understand Japanese that well right now so it was hard to grasp what happened

At the end Arima said to Taiga’s dad that Taiga could have a boyfriend, which could imply that they are we’re gonna make it official And in the copy I read there was a [what ever the opposite of a prologue is] where we could see the two on a date.
