“Nisekoi” – Manga to Anime Adaptation

lol, first manga that I read and it's getting an anime xD

According to a promotional poster found in Japanese bookstores, Komi Naoshi’s romance-comedy manga series, 「Nisekoi」, has been green-lit for production.


The manga currently has 6 volumes to date — with the 7th volume ready to be released on June 4th. It began as a one-shot manga in Jump NEXT! magazine in 2011. The series was then later serialized regularly in Weekly Shounen Jump magazine in November of the same year.

*Synopsis:

As a child, Raku Ichijo made a secret promise with his childhood sweetheart, keeping a pendant as a memento while his love took the key. He dreams of one day meeting his past love, but years later, reality smashes his hopes when Chitoge Kirisaki accidentally knees him in the face…
Though Raku’s a normal high schooler, his family heads the notorious yakuza gang the Shuei-Gumi faction! And he’s dragged into family affairs when he’s forced into a relationship with Chitoge, the daughter of a rival gang’s boss!
Despite their constant spats, the two somehow fool everyone with their false relationship. Raku then discovers that Chitoge has a mysterious key from her past, which she can’t remember… Plus, two other girls appear with keys as well—Kosaki Onodera and Marika Tachibana!
Caught in the midst of this love maelstrom, even more complications arise for Raku when his class decides on Romeo and Juliet as the class’s play for the school festival. Can the two false lovebirds pull off the impossible and make the play a success?

Did you like it?

I have only read the first 60 chapters but it's quite fun, not a masterpiece or anything though. Kinda reminded me of Toradora

Well I liked Toradora! so it's a good thing

Saw this two weeks ago but it was just a rumor. I'm glad they are going to finally make an anime out of one of my favorite manga.

@Ovyda I recommended it to Vin and he likes it, you should read it as well.
