The laws of equal exchange don’t only apply to the use of alchemy to resurrect your dead mother, Fullmetal Alchemist fans. It also applies pretty accurately to the wide, wild world of manga. Just as plenty of new manga series seem to crop up every day, plenty of manga also say their farewells on a regular basis. Some of these concluding manga are minor hits or unknown oddities, but every now and then a major anime ending comes along. We’re on the precipice of one such conclusion, as manga author Katsuwo revealed that the slapstick stylings of comedy manga Mitsuboshi Colors are set to come to an end on June 27.
In the June issue of Kadokawa’s Monthly Comic Dengeki Daioh magazine, which is the magazine that the Mitsuboshi Colors manga currently runs in, Katsuwo stated that the series is set to end “in the next next issue.” According to the release schedule of the magazine, this means that the final chapter will be available in the June 27th issue of Comic Dengeki Daioh.
The Mitsuboshi Colors manga actually started serialization way back in 2014, but the series didn’t pick up much international acclaim until the premiere of the anime adaptation of the series in 2018. Sentai Filmworks licensed the series, streaming it weekly for overseas fans via HIDIVE as it aired in Japan. The series was later released on Blu-ray Disc with an English dub in April of 2019. Sentai Filmworks describes the story of the show as follows:
This world has lots of problems, but after doing grown-up things all day, adults never have the time or energy to fix them! Kids, on the other hand, have LOTS of energy and lots more free time as well. That’s why Yui, Sat-chan and Kotoha, three elementary school girls who live in Ueno, have formed COLORS, a secret organization that protects their town from whatever real or imagined menace happens to catch their attention. A monster cat who’s also a cat burglar? They’re on the case! A horrible surplus of bananas? They’ll sell the case! And a bomb that needs diffusing? Well, they might need a little help on that one, just in case! The local cop might think they’re a nuisance, but everyone else can sleep better tonight knowing these three heroines are saving the world in MITSUBOSHI COLORS!
