The manga that got me into manga is ending...

'Tis a shame. Hopefully they'll animate the rest of it, but that may just be wishful thinking.

But in the end I think 32 volumes are just right for a manga like this.

Hmm... I thought the author would carry this for a couple more years since it's episodic. I give him my praise for his decision, nowadays there aren't a lot of authors in Jump who end their mangas out of their own volition.

If the anime doesn't have a second season (which unfortunately seems to be the most likely case) I'll read through the whole thing when the scanlations end. Meanwhile I'll be looking forward to future works by him.

I find the manga to be much better and funnier than the anime. o_o

Haven't read it in a while. I think I'll re-read it when it finishes. :)
Looking forward to his next work.

It's just amazing how many big titles are in there.

All ending in the same time frame.

And Claymore looks like it's going to end sooner or later too.

@JustALEX:

Plus Eden no Ori, Nozoki Ana, Medaka Box, Kaibutso Oujo, Binbougami ga!, Tasogare Otome x Amnesia and maybe Rosario + Vampire Season II this year too unless we get Season III.


Some of them ended before summer, so I would say that 2013 in general has been a killer for many long running manga.

Ah ok, I'll look into some of those. I don't stay all that in tune with every bit of news related to anime/manga, I just had noticed a lot of series were ending. Which obviously meant we will be getting more. Did you find any of those new series particularly good?

The author of World Trigger, Ashihara Daisuke has had quite the history publishing in Jump though, his previous work lasted around 40 chapters before getting the axe. The series introduces some interesting concepts but comes off a bit bland overall

The rest are slightly interesting Battle Shounen though.

40 chapters is quite the feat nowadays, I will give him that but I have no hope for that manga.

The fact that Sket Dance is an episodic series means that for it to end, it must have had consecutively poor rankings. I thought Sket Dance was pretty high in the rankings, although I haven't seen the rankings lately, nor have I read the latest chapters (since they're not translated yet). Can somebody update me on this?

Uh, nono. Recently it wasn't going that well in rankings, but not that bad either. There are always other "buffer series" in the bottom 5. It's just that they were already third years, so it was bound to end after/around graduation. Sket Dance was stuck on the fall of their second year for a while (and was potentially endless), but then Shinohara decided to let the time flow again with the School Trip Arc (he says it on the free talk in volume 15), so it was obvious it would have ended after graduation.

I don't believe Sket Dance was cancelled though...

The latest Volume was somewhere in the top 30 best sellers just a week or two ago.
