The 45th issue of Shueisha’s Weekly Young Jump this year announced on Thursday that Aka Akasaka‘s Kaguya-sama: Love is War (Kaguya-sama wa Kokurasetai – Tensai-tachi no Renai Zunōsen) manga is officially entering its final arc.

Additionally, the manga will also take a break in the magazine’s next issue, and it will return in the 47th issue on October 21.

Previously, Kaguya-sama manga had gone on hiatus in May, so that the author could write and compose the manga’s new act.

Aka Akasaka already teased it back in December 2020, saying “From now on the story enters the final phase”.

かぐや様の話数カウントはミラクルジャンプ時代のも単行本ではカウントしているのでヤンジャン本誌と10話分ズレがあるのですが
単行本カウントで200話の入稿をしまして想像以上に長くやったものだなと思ってます
かぐや様の中盤戦も終わり、終盤戦に突入です
あとしばらくお付き合いください
