Looseboy and Iori Furuya’s Talentless Nana is finally approaching its endgame.
According to the June issue of Square Enix’s Monthly Shonen Gangan magazine, the manga will wrap up in two more chapters. If the release schedule stays on track with no delays, that means Talentless Nana should reach its ending in July.
For fans who have been following this one since its mid-2010s run, this is a pretty big moment. The series first launched in Monthly Shonen Gangan back in May 2016, which means it has been running for around a decade by the time it reaches the finish line. That is a long time for any suspense manga, especially one built around twists, hidden motives, and constant mind games.
For those who somehow missed it, Talentless Nana — also known as Munō na Nana — is set at an academy located on an island surrounded by unnavigable waters. The students there are trained to fight the so-called enemies of humanity. The story follows a newly transferred student who arrives with the same mission: eliminate humanity’s enemies. From there, the series leans hard into psychological suspense, questions of justice, and the messy line between heroism and villainy.
Square Enix’s Manga UP! Global service is currently releasing the manga in English. That matters for readers in Malaysia and the wider SEA region because digital access is still the easiest way to keep up with series that may not always get consistent physical releases here. Previously, Crunchyroll had released the manga in English through its web manga service, but that platform shut down in December 2023. After that, Manga UP! Global took over digital English releases.
Square Enix also published the manga’s 14th compiled volume in December 2025, so readers who prefer volume-by-volume collecting still have a clear path to catch up before the finale lands.
The manga also received a TV anime adaptation, which premiered in October 2020. Funimation streamed the anime as it aired in Japan and later released it on Blu-ray Disc in February 2022. For Malaysian anime fans who watched the anime first, this manga ending is probably the proper chance to see where the full story lands beyond the adaptation’s initial hook.
What makes this ending worth watching is that Talentless Nana is not just another school battle setup. Its whole appeal comes from the way it flips expectations and keeps readers second-guessing who is right, who is lying, and what “justice” even means in its world. With only two chapters left, the pressure is on for the manga to deliver a conclusion that feels sharp instead of rushed.
If you are into anime and manga that mix survival-game tension, psychological strategy, and morally messy characters, now is the time to catch up before spoilers start spreading across timelines and fan groups. SEA anime communities love a good ending debate, and this one has enough long-running baggage to fuel plenty of Discord arguments.
