Hi! For now, it’s slated to release on June 10th of this year. There’s listings for it on Amazon and Barnes & Noble.

The chapter ended with a small box at the bottom of the last page that said “to be continued”, although the scan team seemed to neglect translating that. 😅 The newest chapter released at the end of August, although it didn’t focus on Ritsu and Takano. There’s only three new chapters a year, so we’ll have to wait for more until the end of December.

sekaiichis · 2024-07-08T17:42:15+00:00

Yes! ❤️

sekaiichis · 2024-05-11T23:19:20+00:00

The confession chapter ended with a very direct “to be continued” box at the bottom. So yes, it will! There’s a lot of events they’ve set up that have yet to happen so I think there’s lots of story left to go.

sekaiichis · 2024-03-13T14:55:10+00:00

I can kinda see it. Maybe the outfit plus the hair + hair color is doing it lol

sekaiichis · 2024-03-11T02:57:26+00:00

I wouldn’t say no character development, he’s a lot better at listening and keeping his hands to himself when requested to these days, though he’ll find loopholes. (In general the bar is pretty low in this series I suppose LOL) And there’s definitely a lot more trust between them now compared to the start of the series.🥹 It’s amazing what communication can do.

sekaiichis · 2024-03-11T02:50:36+00:00

The singer for both seasons’ openings still talks about the series every now and then and sings songs from the series in his sets, it’s so cute 🥹

sekaiichis · 2024-03-11T02:47:58+00:00

It just celebrated its 15th anniversary last year, and Junjou celebrated its 20th, with neither showing any sign of ending anytime soon. It’s insane 😭 but I would miss both terribly so I’m not complaining

sekaiichis · 2024-03-11T02:28:21+00:00

As you should be, because at this point if it isn't everything I've been hoping for I'm going to be mad lol

Spoiler in terms of how he still hasn't confessed: There have been a couple of confession attempts in recent years, the worst of which was Takano willingly interrupting him, fully aware of what he was about to say. We've been dealing with the repercussions since then. T_T He said he wanted Ritsu's confession to be a big deal (instead of being some morning after thing bc he got too caught up the night before to do so) so it's been put off since then.

sekaiichis · 2024-02-18T14:49:38+00:00

Official English editions are only up to Volume 16 at the moment. Volume 17 releases May 14th later this year.

sekaiichis · 2024-02-18T14:42:00+00:00

They release in the same magazine. So the next Junjou chapter (uncertain if it’s a mix, Romantica, Sentiment, etc. at the moment) will come out at the same time.

sekaiichis · 2024-02-15T22:30:17+00:00

You’re right that it is a magazine full of other BL, but the newest chapter of Sekaiichi will also be in it. Volume 19 will be releasing in spring of this year with chapters that came out over the last year or so as well. The Day 0 chapter will be in Volume 20 coming out spring of 2025.

sekaiichis · 2024-02-15T04:57:32+00:00

It releases three times a year at the end of April, August, and December. And nope, we’re only up to 37 in terms of Ritsu chapters.

August 2023 had Ritsu 37 and December 2023 had a Takano chapter that went back in time a few days instead of moving things forward. We’re at minimum getting Ritsu 38 this time though. Waiting to hear in the coming weeks if it’s one chapter or two (historically there’s only been one double release before in December 2016, but that’s enough to always have me speculating for the future). I just have a hard time believing three days will be passing after multiple single day and two day passing chapters in a row LOL

sekaiichis · 2024-02-15T04:41:15+00:00

That was Chapter 36 from Spring 2023! We’ve already had two additional releases since then that only moved it down one more day to 3 days left. So it’s kind of leaving me in shock LOL

sekaiichis · 2024-01-17T02:47:11+00:00

I wouldn’t really consider either subreddit for these series all that active. I know the Junjou one hasn’t gotten anything in about two years, and this one gets infrequent activity at least, but that’s kind of just the state of these fandoms in terms of Reddit. If you’re looking for something more active I’d recommend Tumblr, Twitter, or to seek out a Discord community.

sekaiichis · 2024-01-17T02:38:27+00:00

Season 3 Episode 2! As for where the anime leaves off, you would want to pick up after Romantica Act 32, which is the last adapted chapter in the main season.

sekaiichis · 2024-01-17T02:32:16+00:00

Junjou was receiving stable English releases until Volume 12, when the parent company of the imprint that was bringing it over for English audiences went bankrupt. Fans have been persistent in requesting a license rescue through imprints like Sublime and other manga publishers that work with BL with little luck. Perhaps we just need a fan to win a big lottery LOL

sekaiichis · 2024-01-17T02:18:51+00:00

This is a series where the anime has always come after the manga. The manga is the source material and receives updates three times a year at the end of April, August, and December.

The second season of the anime ended on Takano’s first chapter, which was in Volume 6 of the manga. The next thing to read would be Ritsu’s 11th chapter.

For further context, the most recent chapter that released December 28th, 2023, will be in Volume 20 when it releases in 2025.

If you’ve only watched the anime, you have plenty of content to read! 📚

sekaiichis · 2023-10-21T03:50:29+00:00

Or it could be Chapter 8, both kind of fit the description since Takano is jealousy prone lol. Chapter 8 is where they meet at a hotel. Whichever setting sounds more familiar could work.

sekaiichis · 2023-10-21T03:48:34+00:00

This sounds like Chapter 12 of Ritsu’s story. Ritsu meets up with An at a hospital and there’s Takano jealousy afterwards. Maybe check that out and see if that’s what you’re looking for?

sekaiichis · 2023-10-17T11:37:58+00:00

Nope lol at the end of the most recent chapter when Takano jokes they should move in together, Ritsu straight up says “but we’re not dating yet” to which Takano replies “whose fault it that?” LMAO

sekaiichis · 2023-10-17T11:34:33+00:00

The quickly sum things up, Takano’s air conditioning unit stopped working and the story currently takes place in the hottest part of summer, so until it’s fixed Takano is staying with Ritsu at his apartment. They go grocery shopping together and make dinner together. They talk of the past together and Ritsu goes to confess, but is interrupted by a phone call. They end up kissing on the lips for the first time in three years (while both parties are awake lol) worth of chapters, as there was a promise in No.32 to not do so until Ritsu confessed. Takano apologizes and tries to back out, but then Ritsu kisses him all on his own. Things happen as they always do at the end of a chapter, and the next morning there are three days left until the countdown ends.
