 After almost a year of hiatus, Ichigo Takano's popular shoujo series "Orange" will be moving from Shueisha's Bessatsu Margaret to Futabasha's new magazine, Monthly Action. Chapter 9 will be re-serialized in the February issue, on sale December 25, 2013, and the newest chapter will run in the April issue, on sale February 25, 2014.Takano's brand-new series, "Re Collection", began serialization in Monthly Action on October 25, 2013. "Re Collection" tells the story of Kanade, a professor who suffers from amnesia, and his roommate who calls himself God. Orange's serialization will be irregular, and the two series are expected to publish interchangeably, alternating in the magazine each month. Source: Natalie |

| Is "Orange" popular? Interesting that this shojo is based in the city of Matsumoto in Nagano prefecture as I cannot recall another manga that is set on the same city. |
| So MAL finally starts locking news threads that are only a few weeks old? I wonder where was the announcement of this change? Or we are seeing yet another case of changes made that impacted users but not communicated to them? I wonder how long people would put up with this. As much as I have a bunch of information to share about anime announced recently I cannot share it in news board, and the anime series is too disorganized and chaotic to share information except with people already interested in the particular series. |
tsubasalover said: Orange’s serialization will be irregular and the two series are expected to publish interchangeably, alternating in the magazine each month. A bad idea imho. She should have ended Orange properly before moving on to a new one, especially if she can't keep them running simultaneously each month. Anyway, Orange is the only shoujo I read so I'm happy it's coming back. I wonder if moving to a seinen magazine will change the content that follows to adjust to the new demographic. |
| Finally *-* Found a good shoujo, a very good shoujo, and then... puff! Goodbye. I'm so glad it's back *-* can't wait for the 10th chapter >.< |
| I'm glad Orange is back! It's really good. Too bad its serialization will be irregular, but it's still better than nothing. |
| YES YES YES! There's still a long time, but I've been waiting so long that I wouldn't mind waiting a few more months. |
| Phew, I almost thought it was completely cancelled. That's better than nothing. |
| Interesting manga , I liked where it was going. What was her reason for going on hiatus if I may ask? |

lufforee said: What was her reason for going on hiatus if I may ask? It is mentioned on her official site that she wasn't physically feeling well (to the extend that she attended the hospital, stayed there, etc.) enough to continue working on it and among other things. That led her to be unable to publish on Bessatsu Margaret anymore and even thought about publishing it as web series. The editor of Futabasha is the one who accompanied her then, and that's why she decided to agree with the editor and editor-in-chief of Futabasha to put her manga there. Orange is irregular publishing because she's not completely cured. |

| This is good news to hear, I'm glad that Orange is coming back, although it will be published irregularly, I don't really mind since Re Collection seems like it will be interesting. |
 |
| YES FINALLY!! But I wonder if the upcoming chapters will still have its shoujo elements despite being serialized in a seinen magazine... |
| made my day:) |
| Almost cried reading this, so happy! I don't care if it will be irregular, there wasn't even hope for it to continue, so just this is better than nothing. Xinception said: Nice to hear that a mangaka isn't giving up for once. Also, I noticed that Orange is one of the top 20s in MAL. On a scale of 5 stars, which would you rate it out? I have a grudge against Shoujo demographics, but I'd like to try and get pass that barrier for once. Is Orange interesting? Can I have a quick plot synopsis? The main themes of the manga is? I would rate it 5. You might think i give away easily high scores, but i tell you, i've read over 300 shojos and i've only rated 8 shojos with 10. But well, for someone that doesn't read much (or at all) shojos, guess it's possible to no find it so great. I would say it's unique among shojos, a bittersweet story about regrets, and what would happen if you have the chance to fix them. It's not about going back in time, but to warn your past self, make you do the things you should've done. Of course it's about romance, but i also find beautiful the friendship in it and the selfness, and the drama is well balanced. There are such kind characters that it's obvious they would never exist lol. It isn't rushed, actually its pace is great showing us sometimes the future and making us cry with it. I'm just trying to say something here that isn't already in the sypnosis, so i'm sorry for the bad description. So the main theme guess it is Regrets, Future/Past and to save the loved one (is that even a theme? haha) Hope to have helped at least a little bit. |
| Wow this is such a great news! I had thought that it would be unfinished for forever, but it's good to hear that she's switching magazines instead. My favorite series are coming back, first Iris Zero, and now Orange! |
| Hell Yeah! This is a great news! I really love Orange, thanks goodness the mangaka didn't give up with this manga. |
 |
| These tears guys, these damn tears. You guys have no idea how happy I am. ;_; I'm not even into shoujo and yet I love this manga, even if it only has 9 chapters. |
| I am so happy Orange will be back! Can't wait to read the next chapter. |
| Wow, it's been so long! I've been putting it on hold for it to be completed before starting to read, finally! Well doesn't change the fact that it would still need more than 2 years, but hey, at least it's not on hiatus anymore! |

| Yeeeeesssss. I've been reading this and enjoying it of course so this news bring a smile to my face. |
 |
| Awesome! I literally discovered this days ago. I have not caught up on the chapters out, because while I loved the first two chapters I saw there hasn't been a chapter in a year and a bunch of comments about how the manga-ka quit. So I thought, maybe I should stop and save myself the pain. Now I found out it's going to resume. Pretty perfect timing! Well I guess December when the next chapter actually comes out would have been better, more real. I wonder if she plans to keep it going for a while or just wants to wrap it up. |

| This is great news! I'm glad to hear that the manga is being continued. |

| Yay Orange is coming back :'D I'm glad to see a new series by Takano but I'm even more excited for Orange! <3 Can't wait >//< |
 |
| IT'S BACKKK! Now I can start reading again *-* |
 |
| why is it in a seinen manga tho does that mean i can't read it anymore |
| ~"The place to improve the world is first in one's own heart and head and hands." (Pirsig) |
| Shojo, Shonen, Seinen, Josei : that doesn't mean anything, just words... the magazine is new but not the story and the characters. |
| YEEEEES! Orange is going to be back. I was afraid that it would never be finished like many good (also bad) manga now days (I am staring at you DN angel). |
| Yayy! >:'D I thought Orange would never finish! I am so happy! ♥ |
| 💕 |
| Oh thank goodness!!! But I wonder why it'll be published irregularly? Still, that's better than it being on hiatus.. |
 |
| Awesome news! |
| So now that it moved to a seinen magazine, will it change or something? I mean the mangaka will be working with a new editor too and all. |
