Excel Saga's Rikudou Ends Kantan Kiss Manga Next Month
posted on by Lynzee Loveridge
The September issue of Shonengahosha's Young Comic magazine announced this month that manga creator Koushi Rikudou (Excel Saga) will end his Kantan Kiss (Easy Kiss) manga in the following issue on September 10. The "erotic spectacle" launched last year, and the first compiled volume shipped in April.
The manga revolved around a boy who meets an older woman over the Internet. As he gets closer to her, he wants to meet her in person, to touch her, and to do naughty things to her.
Rikudou ended his Sarakiel fantasy manga and his AGEHA manga last year. He is also collaborating on the Kōkaku no Pandora - Ghost Urn- manga with Ghost in the Shell's Masamune Shirow.
Rikudou ended Excel Saga in Shonengahosha's Young King Ours magazine in 2011. The manga was released in English by Viz Media with the final volume in January. Its anime adaptation was re-licensed by FUNimation after ADV Films, which acquired the title in 2000, shut down in 2009.
The magazine also announced that Yoshihisa Inoue's Ueno Kanna no Hatsujō Kenkyūshitsu manga will end in the next issue.
