This year's 28th issue of Akita Shoten's Weekly Shōnen Champion magazine revealed on Thursday that Paru Itagaki's (BEASTARS) SANDA manga will end in four chapters. If there are no delays, the manga will end in early July.

The manga tells the story of adults and children in a future with a declining birth rate. An ordinary boy named Sanda finds out that one of his classmates, Shiori Fuyumura, is trying to kill him, because of Fuyumura's missing friend and a certain "curse" that Sanda is carrying.

Itagaki launched the manga in Weekly Shōnen Champion in July 2021. Akita Shoten published the manga's first compiled book volume in December 2021, and the 14th volume on June 7.

Itagaki launched her BEASTARS manga in Akita Shoten's Weekly Shōnen Champion magazine in September 2016. The manga ended in October 2020. Akita Shoten published the manga's 22nd and final volume in January 2021. Viz Media published the manga in English.

The first television anime of BEASTARS debuted on Netflix in Japan and on Fuji TV's [+Ultra] programming block and on TV Nishinippon in October 2019. The season debuted on Netflix outside of Japan in March 2020. The anime's second season premiered in January and again aired in Japan on Fuji TV's [+Ultra] programming block. Netflix debuted the second season outside Japan in July 2021. The anime's final season will premiere on Netflix this year, and will be split into two cours (quarter of the year).

Itagaki launched the Drip Drip (Bota Bota) manga mini-series in December 2020, and ended in February 2021. The manga's one compiled volume released in Japan in April 2021, and Viz Media published the manga volume in English in October 2022.
