Yuusuke Kozaki manga series Donyatsu is in the planning stages of ending this year as the fifth volume of the series, which arrived this past weekend, will be ending with the material that will make up the sixth volume. The series began in 2011 in Young Gangan magazine and inspired an anime adaptation which was just streamed this year by Crunchyroll. No specific end date has been set yet for the series.
The anime adaptation was produced by Gathering with Mankyuu serving as the director. It ran as a series of shorts in 2013-2014.
The full twelve episode series is available now to Crunchyroll users worldwide excluding Japan.
Plot concept: The “loosely science-fiction adventure” is set in the summer sometime in the 21st century. Tokyo’s Shinjuku ward has become a wasteland, void of all humans due to an unexplained catastrophe. What remains are these strange creatures such as “Donyatsu,” the half-cat, half-doughnut hybrid, and “Begaru,” a feline bagel composite.
