Shueisha’s MANGA Plus had announced last month, on August 14, that the series would conclude in two chapters. The penultimate chapter was released on August 27, followed by the final chapter today, on September 10, allowing fans to bid a bittersweet farewell to the series. As this heartwarming story draws to a close, fans are reminiscing about the enjoyable and emotional moments shared by Tsubasa and Minami.

Hokkaido Gals Are Super Adorable! follows Tokyo teen Tsubasa Shiki, who moves to snowy Hokkaido and meets the lively Minami Fuyuki, a local gal who welcomes him with open arms. Through Tsubasa’s eyes, we experience Hokkaido’s breathtaking beauty, its traditions, and the friendships that define the series. Minami and the other girls of Hokkaido help Tsubasa discover a deeper meaning to life, love, and friendship.

Fast forward to the final chapter – Tsubasa is walking his daughter Mio down the aisle (yes, you read that right!). As he is doing that, he also thinks back to his first meeting with Minami; Tsubasa is overwhelmed by everything they’ve shared.

The series ends with his final monologue: “Since you were there… since it was you… I came to Hokkaido, and I met you… and I’ve been happy ever since… thank you, Fuyuki-san, for all these years… and for all the years to come.” Not many romance manga start well…end well. But Hokkaido Gals is different. Kai Ikida not only ended the story well but also gave Tsubasa and Minami a happy ending.

Fans React on Twitter/X as Hokkaido Gals Are Super Adorable! Concludes

Manga readers flooded Twitter to express what Hokkaido Gals Are Super Adorable! meant to them and say their goodbyes. They also shared their favorite moments, favorite characters, and quotes from the series. Fans were incredibly thankful to Kai Ikada for creating such a fantastic story and ending it in such a wholesome way.

One fan, @en_richy, tweeted for all the single men, “Today, in an hour or so, the Gals from Hokkaido manga will end. It’s been a pleasure to follow this series for five years, but it will hurt to see it ending regardless. I wish I could find a cute gal from Hokkaido as well, long live to them

Another fan, @TaigataRRRo, wondered if they’d ever find another manga like this, tweeting, “They got married and had a kid and now their kid is getting married 😭😭😭😭 bro why does Hokkaido Gals have to end??? 😭😭😭 it’s gonna be hard to find another good Gal manga.” To them, we’d recommend My Dress-Up Darling. It’s another good “Gal” manga that fans love.

Don’t worry so much, Hokkaido Gals fans! You can always rewatch the story as many times as you want. Maybe give it a shot in anime form this time. Hokkaido Gals‘ anime adaptation was just released earlier this year. It’s produced by Silver Link and Blade, and fans have been loving it for staying true to the manga. You can read the manga on MANGA Plus and watch the anime on Crunchyroll. Currently, only one season has been released, and there is no news about Season 2.
