Well probably not that much of a surprise as it did look like it was coming to an end. Maybe a sequel coming for Black Cat in the mix next by the authors.

lol, guess it's still unknown whether or not the authors decided to end it themselves. Oh well. Didn't plan on reading this series anyway.

Man, this is lame. I can continue reading this manga forever. Why it has to end now?? T___T. Especially, it has to be rush ending T____T. I prefer the storyline to take time like 2 to 3 chapters before it end.

I think ending a 150+ chapters manga with love triangle from the very beginning, lots of love interests unresolved and the case with Lala's father there, too with a SINGLE chapter is an epic fail.

This is not the reason why it ended, though it's linked to it: http://www.scantrad.fr/plus.php?id=3339 (Yes it's in French, though i shall translated what's needed for you).

Basically it was supposed to end it Jump #42, though it's getting an abrupt ending because of a breach in contract with the scenarist (to do with a scenario from the game) has ended. So it'll end in Jump #40.

So high chances are we'll get those last two chapters in the last volume.

I mean it was an useless manga, it was slow as a turtle and ecchi has to be rapid.

And way too ecchi for WSJ, seriously boys read this stuff at 8. That's not right. If you wanna read an useless manga, read jaguar.

So for everyone who's been reading this manga, is there an actual ending or is the ending rushed and many plot-holes still unfulfilled.

I guess I'm asking is this worth my time to read?

Has to be a harem ending, otherwise I will never forgive the author for the last few chapters he's put us through.

You know something's not right when you realise you're reading a series just because it's there. Unless I've been reading a different TLR nothing much has really happened for the past few volumes; it's like watching Naruto filler but even less funny.

At this point the author would really have to subvert my expectations (which aren't particularly high of this series) for me to really care any more.

this is so sad, so i wonder how they're going to wrap this up? i'm going to miss reading a new chapter of this every week, so i wonder also what they'll replace it with?

WTF? Really? Although there has been some plot movement in the love department there is so many things un finished. How the fuck can they end it? Wow. Didn't expect it but if that's the case I'm not reading harem manga anymore. I mean at some point I was expecting a plot to come in (similar to that of reborn) but wow. I guess I should stop dreaming. An there's no way to finish everything in 2 chapters let alone tie everything up.

If you want a disappointing ending for all the hours you spent on reading this manga, yes, you should read it.

Other then that, no. There are indeed a lot of plot-holes unfulfilled, there are actually way TOO FRICKING MUCH to just end the manga like this..

They could of dragged this on even more in my book, I wouldn't of cared if they did; I enjoyed this series you get sometime to read instead of other mangas that are good or better than this one, isn't being picked up or the author is not drawing fast enough. For something you get to read every week I can't find something to complain about.

Considering what happened in the last few chapaters.

The manga ending is going to be rushed. Its going to either be slapped together or going to end up as a shit harem ending with all the girls around him "to be continued..."

Rushed ending is still rushed so its going to lack alot of things.

I still believe the fault lies with shonen jump, the manga was good and funny, there is now way they authors would be able to end this in two chapters. The last chapters would obviously be below par and ruin the whole series.

The manga was good, funny, and entertaining. I don't know what the hell these other people expect from a humor, ecchi, harem genre but its not healthy to have extremely high expectations. ;-)

no amount of fanservice is going to save this series....

There was no point in this series since the beginning....

The endless debate between fans and haters. At one point, after spending a lot of time on MAL, you just realize it's totally pointless.

How is it a spoiler if it didn't even happen? Hell, any "discussion" can be a form of spoiler. In that case, why don't we just "mass spoiler tag" whole threads of chapters, upcoming seasons, and episodes too or while we are at it we can just add spoiler tags to every single thread on this form because in some way or another it might spoil something for one person.

Edit: Also this thread's title in a way "Manga To Love-Ru Ends Serialization on August 31" can spoil it for people too if you look at it in a different way. I assume that if you read this post you would find discussions on what could happen and what might happen so maybe the best way around that was to not read anything beyond the first post?

on scantrad.fr, they also say that HxH is rumored to restart in october, and that is overall good news. (if you insist, I might translate all, but it didn't seems that interesting, saves the information we're talking about right now)

as for TLR, I don't care about an ending, from the start it was a "plot ?, what plot ?" kind of story, and I've had my fun with the drawing of jailbait babes in lascivious poses <3 <3

now maybe the artist will do some good doujin about it and we'll all be more than (f/h)appy with that XD, because from the start, that's the only kind of satisfaction you can get off a manga with a plot like that
