The staff of Shueisha’s Bessatsu Margaret magazine announced on Thursday that Karuho Shiina’s Kimi ni Todoke manga did not appear in the August issue on Thursday due to Shiina’s sudden illness.
The manga will return in next month’s issue on August 12.
The series has consistently ranked among the top-selling manga in Japan.
The manga tells the story of Sawako Kuronuma, nicknamed Sadako (from The Ring) because of her long black hair and pale skin makes her appear gloomy.
