In 2015, Koji Kumeta released the manga series Kakushigoto: My Dad's Secret Ambition is a story about a man Kakushi. He is a single father who writes best selling manga that isn't exactly for children. Because of this, he is forced to keep that from his young daughter. However, that is easier said than done. The series released in Kodansha's Monthly Shonen Magazine and, as of now, has published 11 volumes.
The manga was such a success that an anime series soon followed. The series premiered this past April and has been developed by Yuta Murano and Aija-do. The series has been streaming on Funimation, as well, as it airs. The anime has been just as successful as the manga and manages to capture the heartwarming and simple line work that the manga does so well.
In a recent announcement from Mainichi Shimbun's Mantan Web site, the manga series will be reaching its conclusion. It has been revealed that the series' 12th volume would be the final volume. The announcement that the end was coming soon was made in the manga's 10th volume. That would put the ending of the series as releasing at the beginning of July.
With the series now concluding, and no sequel series planned, what will be next for Kumeta? We would love to hear your thoughts in the comments.
Kakushi Gotou is a single father with a secret: he's a top-selling manga artist of a raunchy series that perhaps isn't suitable reading material for his young daughter, Hime. So he does what any doting father would do—he hides it all from her, no matter the hijinks that ensue!
The final chapter of Kakushigoto is set to release on July 6th!
