Author Masaki Andō announced via his X (formerly Twitter) account that his ongoing comedy manga Mojiponika! is scheduled to conclude in the next issue of Kodansha's Afternoon magazine, set for release on November 25. The series, which began serialization in Afternoon in May 2025, follows Tsumugu, a young man who begins to learn the meanings behind kanji characters through his work stitching them onto the tokkōfuku of a foreign exchange student named Gina. Kodansha has released three compiled volumes of the work to date, with the most recent volume published on August 21. Andō is also known for his previous work, the regional comedy Yatogame-chan Kansatsu Nikki, which ran from 2016 to 2022 and inspired a four-season television anime adaptation.
