The latest installment of Young Gangan is arriving in Japan and early scans have revealed within that the manga series Arakawa Under the Bridge from Hikaru Nakamura is set to end with the next installment on July 3rd, 2015. Nakamura began the series back in 2004 and has had fourteen compiled volumes so far, with one more to bring it all to a close after this. The property spawned a pair of anime seasons back in 2010, which were licensed and released in North America. The property saw solid success in general as it also spawned both a live action TV series and a live action film as well.

Plot Concept: Ko Ichinomiya’s family motto is “Never be indebted to anyone,” but after losing his pants and falling into the Arakawa River, he quickly finds himself in debt to his savior, the cutely insane Nino (who happens to live under the bridge). To repay her, he vows to help her with her desire to “experience love.” Along the way he’ll meet the river’s other residents, including a hot-blooded kappa, a Sister in drag, and a literal rock star. Sorry, Ko—when you fell into that river, I guess you really got in over your head!
