Reiji Miyajima’s obsession for Chizuru Mizuhara, the lead character of Rent-A-Girlfriend, is no secret. And so when the author shared a cryptic tweet regarding the manga’s conclusion, fans were beyond surprised, as he had been previously accused of ‘living in his own ridiculous fantasy’ through the protagonist Kazuya.
Reiji Miyajima took to Twitter to drop the big news, stating, “The final episode has been decided“.
However, it’s worth noting that Miyajima had made a similar announcement last year as well, so it is advised to take the update with a grain of salt.
In response to the announcement, fans flooded social media platforms with mixed reactions, with many conveying their eagerness for the series to come to a close, citing a lack of plot progression over the last 70 chapters. Whereas, others speculate that the author is pulling the Oda move and drop another 100 more chapters.
