@Erinyes@revo Didn't realise new chapters were scanned in December. Are you guys up to date?
I just ordered vol 5 which should be chaps 21-25. Vol 6 comes out in April this year, vol 7 in September. At this point, the books are quicker than scans.

Seemingly, the manga will get an anime adaptation : source Here
"A domain listing for "Totsukuni no shoujo" (The Girl from the Other Side) by Nagabe indicates that the series will get an anime adaption "
Yeha the series lenght is perfect not rushed not stretched, just good as it is. I hope the ending is as satsfying as the the whole series, either it's a happy or a sad end.
Apologies tho i did a mistake , its not 10 volumes but 11 seemingly. i thought the 9th (up to chap 45) one was the penultimate, but theres another volume, the 10th which is not yet out on scan, probably was released later due to being delayed.
Volume 10 Japanese release was september 2020 -> English release 13 april 2021
Volume 11 (last one) - manga serilaization ended this week. Japanese release scheduled on April 10th 2021 -> English release unknown yet
+ Extra volume special -> Japanese release scheduled on March 2022

Vol 11 (end) cover

Chap 46 up to chap 49 out ( Vol. 10)
A lot of reveals in this volume, we get to see Albert's past with his family, and 2 guys who were nice to him, he met after being cursed, and then more reveals about Shiva. Art is stunning as usual, story is full of twists, 'm really looking forward the last volume, hopefully the ending will live up to my expectations !
Some amazing panels :
his waking up.
their escape.
persecution again .
those scenes reminded me the 1st volume when he shielded Shiva and when she was pursued.
after his waking up an realizing what happened slowly.
some flashback with the old man and his grand-son who were kind to him and how it ended.
Last chapters from vol 11 are available here
It was really a nice manga to read with a bittersweet ending ( we were warned from start the story would be sad, it is). The ending is satisfying, how a work is wrapped often is the hardest thing, most manga have disappointing to decent ending, at best, so a nice ending often is the proof of a good writing. The last pages remind me Hunter x Hunter Meruem and Komugi scene, even the format.
Hunter x Huner Komugix Meruem :
The last volume art is as usual, stunning a lot of darkness and light contrasting scenes and, cold/warm too. Some panels are gorgeous. Here are some selected ones.
Overall, it was really a great manga from start to the end, that had many emotional moments, everything was enhanced with the sublime art. i enjoyed reading it, even though I admit I didn't want shiva to be what she was actually, but the explanations confirmed the fact that her soul was always a pure one as expected, but in the end Sensei was the one who suffered the most. I still don't understand how the story is related to Suil A Run song, in the title. But I have the feeling that the story might have some Celtic inspiration ?
Even though I have hard times assessing/ ranking my favorites manga, Totsukuni no Shojo manga was defnitely among my faves and still is, as for now.

Sharing the trailer here too , it's really beautiful, atmosphere seems really faithful to the manga. I do enjoy the musical background, the visuals and voices too, they fit the characters, imo, I'm looking forward to it !
Seinsei is voiced by Jun Fukuyama ( Saiba Asashi (SNS) Lelouch, Shinra (DRR!), and shive by Rie Takahashi ( Megumin, Emilia, Takagi-san)
Finally finished the last few chapters... it was a bittersweet ride indeed. I suppose that's the only way this story could go - starting from us being told it wasn't going to be a happy story to the art work, which suits the sad fairy tale perfectly.
In the beginning of the story, I thought it would be a story about Shiva and her journey in their strange little world. But thinking about it, I think it was always more about teacher. Loved how the last chapter looked back at his life, his memories. The black and white of the artwork beautifully portraying the contrasts of the manga, between dark and light.
It's honestly a bit sad this manga has come to an end, but on the other hand I'm glad it wasn't dragged out needlessly long. I'm considering of rereading this manga sometime soon (when I have the time for it, that is...) - as I feel that the long waits between chapters kind of messed up the hype I initially had for this story. Or perhaps it was the flow? It was hard getting back into the story sometimes, and I feel because of the long waits I missed/forgot possible foreshadowing (and symbols).
Ah they deleted the twitt. Oh It was nothing more than indecent accusations, based on the fact the story features a child and a man. Seemingly it happened when he was in Spain, he was upset about it, and got a lot of support from Spanish fans.
