Orange Manga is Set to Draw to a Close in 7th Compiled Volume

Take out your tissues (if you haven’t yet while reading the manga): beloved and tear-jerking slice-of-life manga Orange is set to end with its seventh compiled volume. This was announced in a tweet from the official Twitter account of the manga’s author Ichigo Takano.

Takano’s tweet first says that Orange is an important work to them, and was done in the hopes of being able to help anyone who is experiencing a rough time. The tweet further states that volume 7 “will be the real conclusion”, as most readers think that the manga’s story was already complete in volume 5.

While the manga’s main story is already finished in the first five volumes, the sixth volume features Takano’s adaptation of the Orange Mirai anime film. The said volume also featured the Orange Suwa Hiroto spin-off manga, which shows Suwa in an alternate future.

Orange was first serialized in Bessatsu Margaret manga magazine in 2012, but was eventually moved to Monthly Action. North American rights for the manga are held by Seven Seas Entertainment, who describes the story as such:

“Everyone has regrets in life. So who wouldn’t take the chance to change the past if given the opportunity? When sixteen-year-old Takamiya Naho receives a mysterious letter, claiming to be from her twenty-seven-year-old self, her life is suddenly thrown into flux. The letter tells her that a new transfer student by the name of Naruse Kakeru will be joining her class, and to keep her eye on him. But why? Naho must decide what to make of the letter and its cryptic warning, and what it means not only for her future, but for Kakeru’s as well.”

The manga was adapted into an anime series by TMS Entertainment in 2016, with an anime theatrical film by the same studio released in that year as well.
