Wotakoi Manga Announces Ending As Well As New Animated Short

Seinen rom-com Wotakoi : Love is Hard for Otaku has announced the manga will be ending with its final chapter on July 16th, alongside the release of its third Original Anime Disc.

According to Anime News Network, the manga has announced that it will be concluding its run with chapter 60, though no details have been given as to how that works in the plot.

Similarly, the manga’s final volume will ship October 14th, and will include the third Original Anime Disc adapting the Company Trip arc from the manga which sees the four protagonists go on a company trip together.

It’s no surprise that Wotakoi is ending, given its fairly grounded setting. As a manga about working adults falling in love, it’s quite immune to the regular time-extending shenanigans as even its secondary protagonists ahve gotten married.

Wotakoi: Love Is Hard for Otaku revolves around Hirotaka and Narumi, two childhood best friends who start dating after being reunited at their jobs. The manga focuses heavily on typical Otaku culture, even highlighting the different types such as the Boys-Love-Genre infatuated Narumi, the obsessive gamer Hirotaka as well as the cosplay-focuse Koyanagi and the more casual-but-trying-to-keep-it-hidden Kabakura.

The manga received an anime adaptation in 2018, as well as a live-action movie in 2020. The manga has also been officially translated in English, which you can get via Amazon.
