Hana ni Kamiguse Manga Ends on April 3: Nakayoshi Confirms Final Chapter Date

You know that feeling when a sweet romance starts hitting different… and then boom, it’s already ending? Yeah, that’s Hana ni Kamiguse (Flower Biting Habit) for you.

Hana ni Kamiguse is officially ending

The April issue of Nakayoshi announced that Hana ni Kamiguse will end in the magazine’s next issue on April 3. That’s it. Final chapter. No “maybe later.”

If you’ve been following week to week (or month to month), this is your “ponete vivo” moment. Catch up now or you’ll be the chero asking for spoilers after it’s done.

What the story is about (and why it hooks you)

The manga follows Suu, a second-year high school student who just wants a normal, fulfilling school life with friends. Simple dream, right?

Then life says: “Nah.”

A mysterious, beautiful boy named Yuki shows up with amnesia, and Suu’s whole world flips. If you need a quick example: it’s like you planned a calm lunch… and someone drops a whole drama combo meal on your table.

Release notes: volumes and pace

Kotoko Ichi launched Hana ni Kamiguse in February 2024. The series is ending a little over 2 years later, which is a pretty tight run for a shōjo title.

Kodansha shipped the 4th compiled volume on December 12. That’s four volumes in roughly two years—about 2 volumes per year. Not a slow crawl, not a sprint. More like that steady “I’m going, but don’t rush me” vibe.

Other manga from Kotoko Ichi (quick recap)

If you’re thinking, “Ok, and now what do I read?” here’s the map:
