Manga creator Hiroyuki announced on his official website on Saturday that his Aho-Girl manga will end in the January issue of Kodansha's Bessatsu Shōnen Magazine, which will ship in December. The December issue of the magazine will also make the announcement when it ships on November 9.
Hiroyuki added that the manga's 12th volume will be the final volume. Kodansha is listing that the volume will ship on December 15. Limited editions of the manga's 10th through 12th volumes are each bundling four episodes of the anime series on DVD in Japan.
Kodansha Comics is releasing the manga in English under the title Aho-Girl: A Clueless Girl, and it describes the series:
Yoshiko, a truly clueless high school girl, is never far from over the top hijinks. Her childhood friend has no choice but to look out for her!
Hiroyuki (Doujin Work) launched the four-panel comedy manga in Weekly Shōnen Magazine in 2012, and the series moved to Bessatsu Shōnen Magazine in 2015. Kodansha will publish the manga's 11th volume in Japan on November 9.
The manga inspired a television anime adaptation of 15-minute shorts that premiered in July. Crunchyroll streamed the 12-episode series as it aired.
Hiroyuki's Doujin Work manga inspired a 12-episode television anime series in 2007 that Media Blasters released on home video. Media Blasters previously also released the manga's first four volumes in English in 2009. Hiroyuki's The Comic Artist and His Assistants manga also inspired a 12-episode television anime series that aired in 2014. Crunchyroll streamed the anime as it aired and Sentai Filmworks released the series on DVD and Blu-ray Disc in 2015.
