This article includes spoilers for the end of the manga "Ijiranaide, Nagatoro-san". Discretion is advised to the reader.
The popular manga "Ijiranaide, Nagatoro-san" has come to an end today, concluding a serialization that spanned nearly seven years. Nanashi's work has left a significant mark on the world of romantic comedies, earning the affection and devotion of a large fan base throughout its publication.
"Ijiranaide, Nagatoro-san" began serialization in 2017, quickly capturing attention for its unique style and dynamic between its protagonists: Hayase Nagatoro and Naoto Hachiouji, whom she calls "Senpai." The story revolves around the relationship between Nagatoro, a mischievous and teasing girl, and Senpai, a shy and reserved boy, exploring how their relationship evolves through a series of comedic and sometimes touching interactions.
The manga's popularity led to its anime adaptation, which has had two seasons to date. The first season aired in 2021, followed by the second in 2023. Anime fans are still waiting for a third season, although the chances of its production are considerably reduced now that the original work has concluded.
The manga's finale has been met with mixed reactions from fans. Although there was a kiss between the protagonists a few chapters ago, many expected that the last chapter would offer a more satisfying closure, especially with a final kiss.
In addition, the timeskip at the end of the work spans only a few months, leaving readers without a true vision of what the protagonists' lives would be like in the future. This has left many with a sense of dissatisfaction and hope that the author will add some additional content in the final compilation volume, although hopes are low.
Despite these criticisms, "Ijiranaide, Nagatoro-san" has left a lasting legacy in the romantic comedy genre. His focus on the evolution of a relationship through mockery and affection has been refreshing and has inspired other works in the same genre. The series has proven that even the simplest interactions can lead to a rich and emotionally resonant narrative.
The impact of "Ijiranaide, Nagatoro-san" will be reflected in future generations of manga and anime, and its ending, while bittersweet for many, marks the closure of an important chapter in the history of romantic comedies. Fans will still remember Nagatoro's antics and Senpai's tender reactions, and will look forward to any future projects Nanashi may have in mind (or if he decides to return to hentai).
