Maria Holic's Minari Endo Ends Uchūjin no Shiwaza Desu! Manga

posted on by Karen Ressler
Alien romantic comedy launched in 2015

The January 2018 issue of Kadokawa's Comic Flapper magazine published the final chapter of Minari Endo's Uchūjin no Shiwaza Desu! manga on December 5.

Endo launched the manga in December 2015. The third compiled volume will ship on January 23.

The story follows a high school student named Yamato, whose grandfather runs a bathhouse. Thanks to a cursed wedding ring, he accidentally marries his class's transfer student Mira. She happens to be an alien, and when she comes to live with him he finds he is frequently involved with other aliens and strange events.

Endo launched her Maria Holic manga in the inaugural issue of Media Factory's Monthly Comic Alive in 2006, and ended the series in November 2014. Tokyopop published the beginning of the manga in North America, and One Peace Books is rereleasing the series. The story inspired two television anime in 2009 and 2011, and Sentai Filmworks licensed both.

Endo's Hatenkō Yūgi manga also inspired an anime adaptation. Tokyopop published the original manga in English as Dazzle. The manga will enter its final arc this month.
