The last chapter, set for release on November 14th, 2024, marks the end of approximately four and a half years of publication. The manga’s story will be wrapped up in about a month from now.

The publisher Shueisha announced directly that the manga is going to end soon, and this news was shared on both the manga’s X page (previously Twitter) and anime news site Oricon shortly after. They both posted today about the unexpected ending, which has sparked a lot of excitement, surprise, and numerous posts across the internet.

The End of Oshi no Ko’s Manga Is On The Horizon

Oshi no Ko Entered Its Final Arc Earlier This Year

Since April 2020, Aka Akasaka has been publishing the manga “Oshi no Ko”. The final volume is scheduled for release in December of this year, marking its 16th volume. In July 2024, the story reached its concluding arc. As per the official “Oshi no Ko” X account, it will be published weekly starting from October 24th until the series finale on November 14th, 2024. The manga will wrap up with a total of 166 chapters.

In December 2024, when the last volume is out, a special edition of that volume will simultaneously hit the shelves. This special edition will include a unique cover, adhesive stickers, and a book stand as well, according to Oricon’s announcement.

The limited edition cover is going to feature an exclusive design that has been thoughtfully crafted by Aka Akasaka and Mengo Yokoyari, with a shimmering foil finish. Additionally, we’ll be unveiling a precise replica of the “Ai Infinite Permanent Eternal Oshi!!!” keychain from the series. Plus, several other initiatives to mark the end of the project are currently underway.

Following nearly five years of engaging storytelling, we’re approaching the final chapter. Although some fans worldwide might have been caught off guard by the announcement, given that the manga was wrapping up its main narrative arc, it wasn’t entirely unexpected. As early as June 2024, reports hinted at the ending in an interview with the series creator Aka Akasaka, published in Spur magazine, suggesting that the end was indeed near.
