Tsuiraku JK to Haijin Kyōshi Returns! A Surprise 34-Page Sequel Chapter Arrives for the Beloved Manga
Hello manga lovers! Today we are here with news that is both bittersweet and very exciting. Tsuiraku JK to Haijin Kyōshi (Fallen High School Girl and Irresponsible Teacher), which left a void in our hearts after concluding in 2024, has returned in a completely unexpected way. In the second issue of Hakusensha's Hana to Yume magazine for 2026, a special 34-page sequel chapter written by the series creator sora was published.
This new chapter is not just a brief trip down memory lane, but a true sequel that moves the story forward. Presented with a color opening page, this 34-page adventure covers the events following the main series finale. The biggest surprise is the focus of the story: this special chapter tells the story of Mikoto Ochiai and Jin Haiba's children, offering fans a tremendous glimpse into the characters' future. The series' dark humor and emotional depth are felt in this next-generation story as well.
Tsuiraku JK to Haijin Kyōshi was originally planned to be a short series when it first began publication in July 2017. However, thanks to the intense interest of readers, it turned into a long-running adventure that lasted until June 2024. The manga, which was completed in a total of 20 volumes, achieved great success by reaching 4.4 million copies sold worldwide. The extraordinary relationship between Mikoto and the gambling-addicted physics teacher Jin, who stopped her suicide attempt on the roof, was etched into memories as a work that broke the classic molds of the genre.
The popularity of the series was not limited to the manga; a successful two-season live-action drama adaptation also met with audiences in 2023 and 2024. Author sora (real name Sora Mizuki) is saying goodbye to old fans with this special chapter while continuing preparations for her new project, Bо̄kyakugo no Aletia (Aletia of Forgotten Memory). Her new manga is expected to begin in Hana to Yume magazine on May 20th. Putting a period on the story of Mikoto and Jin in this way has been a wonderful farewell gift for the community that has followed the series for years.
