The March issue of Shueisha’s Jump SQ. magazine revealed on Friday that NisiOisin and Akira Akatsuki are ending their Shōnen Shōjo (roughly translated, “Illness Boy, Illness Girl”) manga in the magazine’s next issue on March 4.
Writer NisiOisin (Bakemonogatari, Kubikiri Cycle) and illustrator Akatsuki (Luger Code 1951) launched the manga in Jump SQ. last January.
The story centers on an 11-year-old boy who hates the lack of unique individuality in the world, and hates that he himself lacks individuality.
He later learns that this is a fatal disease, and that he will not live past 12.
