The popular manga series No Longer Allowed In Another World (Japanese: Isekai Shikkaku) has officially entered a three-month hiatus, with its return scheduled for October 29, at which point it will begin its highly anticipated final arc.
Hiatus and Anticipated Conclusion
The serialization on Shogakukan’s Yawaraka Spirits website paused on June 25, 2025, giving readers a temporary break before the story’s climactic conclusion. The announcement of the final arc has generated significant buzz among fans, eager to see how the unique dark comedy isekai narrative will resolve.
About No Longer Allowed In Another World
Written by Hiroshi Noda and illustrated by Takahiro Wakamatsu, No Longer Allowed In Another World first began its serialization in October 2019. The series is notably licensed in North America by Seven Seas Entertainment, with thirteen tankōbon volumes released as of April 11, 2025.
The manga stands out for its unconventional premise. It follows a melancholic and depressed author, known only as Sensei, who, after a failed suicide pact, finds himself transported to a fantasy world. Far from embracing the typical “hero summoned to another world” trope, Sensei’s primary goal remains to reunite with his girlfriend, Sacchan, to complete their original suicide pact. The title and protagonist are a direct reference to Osamu Dazai, the real-life author of the classic Japanese novel No Longer Human, known for its themes of alienation and despair.
Anime Adaptation and Series Impact
The manga’s popularity led to an anime television series adaptation, produced by Atelier Pontdarc, which aired from July to September 2024. The anime further expanded the reach of the series, drawing in new fans to its distinct blend of dark humor, fantasy elements, and psychological depth.
As No Longer Allowed In Another World prepares to embark on its concluding narrative, fans worldwide await its return on October 29 to witness the final chapters of Sensei’s unusual journey.
