Robico’s successful manga Tonari no Kaibutsu-kun will be ending soon, in fact the next volume, the 12th, will be the final volume of Tonari. It was confirmed in the release of the 11th volume and that the last volume will be bundled with an original animation DVD when it ships. The manga has been going since 2008 and was published by Kodansha’s Dessert magazine. The manga has even gotten adapted into an anime series of the same name, which aired last season.
The manga centers around Shizuku Mizutani, a girl who has absolutely no interests except for school and her plans for the future. A boy named Haru Yoshida would be seated next to her in class, but he has been constantly absent since the first day of school. By chance, she is sent to deliver class printouts to him, and that leads Yoshida to believe they are friends.
