A press release reported that the popular manga written and illustrated by Mashiro“My love story with Yamada-kun at Lv999 (Yamada-kun to Lv999 no Koi wo Suru)”, will be suspended for an indefinite period due to the author's health problems. The publisher responsible will inform when the date for resuming the work has been decided.

It should be noted that this manga had already been on hiatus since mid-February of this year, but this suspension was “partially defined” until the author recovered sufficiently to resume work in the short term. Apparently that goal was not achieved, so it now becomes an “indefinite suspension” because the editors have no idea when work might resume.

In turn, Mashiro began publishing the manga through the service Ganma! from the publisher Kadokawa in March 2019, where it is still being serialized. The work inspired a thirteen-episode anime adaptation produced by the studios hospice and released in the period of Spring-2023 (April-June)getting excellent reviews on MyAnimeList.

Synopsis of My Love Story with Yamada-kun no Lv999

After her boyfriend dumps her for another girl, college student Akane Kinoshita struggles with heartbreak and the memories he left behind. Loading up Forest of Savior, the MMO they used to play together, she hatches a plan to get revenge on her ex-boyfriend through an in-game event. Along the way, she meets someone she doesn’t expect: Akito Yamada, a video game legend who turns out to be her guildmate.

Desperate for support, Akane convinces the antisocial Yamada to help her with her plan and give her a shoulder to cry on. The differences between Akane and Yamada soon become apparent as they spend time together, though they can't help but notice each other's inner qualities. As the two gain more experience with each other, both in and out of the game, their shy knowledge may grow in ways neither of them expect.
