A special booklet included in the September issue of Monthly Shonen Sirius magazine revealed that Tsutomu Nihei's sci-fi action manga Sidonia no Kishi (Knights of Sidonia) will be heading toward its climax.

The booklet also included one-shot spinoffs related to Sidonia no Kishi by various artists:
Ena no Kyouei by Tatsuwo
Kidou Morito Suruuchi (Mobile Gardes Suruuchi) by Hiroaki Michiaki
Morito Kyouka no Zen-Katachi (All Forms of Gardes Strengthening) by Jyu Ishiguchi
Nihei-sensei Gomenasai (Sorry, Nihei-sensei) by Akiko Higashimura
SDK48 Keikaku (SDK48 Plan) by Koushirou Shimizu
Shippo (Tail) by Yayoi Ogawa

Sidonia no Kishi has been serialized in Afternoon magazine since April 2009. The manga was also the winner in the 39th Kodansha Manga Awards for the general category. The 14th volume is set to be released on September 29, 2015. Sidonia no Kishi has been published in English as Knights of Sidonia by Vertical, Inc. since February 5, 2013. The manga previously received two 12-episode TV anime adaptations and one anime film.

Maybe time to catch up with it soon. I feel like the plot somewhat lost the sense of direction at some point, so this will hopefully make the manga interesting again

Good and bad news at the same time. I hope it lasts for another 50 chapters or so.

Really sad to see this end, been following it since the start and its one of my favourite series.

Sigh, all good things must come to an end I guess. I hope the author starts another work after this.

Huh, there's quite a lot of loose ends to tie up. I wonder if heading toward climax means just a couple chapters or 2 more years.

The anime jumped around and changed the order of some events.

Season 1 ends at around ch 30 I think but S2 has scenes from 20+ or so.

Tl;dr just read from ch. 1 I guess.
