The January issue of Square Enix's Gangan Joker magazine is announcing on Monday that Matcha Hazuki's Isshūkan Friends. (One Week Friends) manga will end in the magazine's next issue, which will ship on January 22. The issue will feature the manga on its front cover, and the manga's final chapter, "Mata, Tomodachi ni Natte Kudasai." (Please Be My Friend, Again.), will have a color opening page. The manga will also have a special supplement in the issue.
The story of the manga revolves around Yūki, a boy who wants to become friends with his classmate and desk neighbor Kaori. However, she gently declines his friendship, saying, “But, my... Memories of my friends disappear in a week...” Even so, Yūki wants to become her friend, and so the two become friends over and over again as the weeks pass.
Hazuki began the manga in 2012, and a television anime premiered in April. The final manga volume will ship on April 22.
Crunchyroll streamed the anime as it aired in Japan, and Sentai Filmworks has licensed the series for digital and home video release in North America.
