Horror-survival series likely to end in December

This year's 52nd issue of Kodansha 's Weekly Shōnen Magazine is announcing on Tuesday that author Muneyuki Kaneshiro and artist Akeji Fujimura 's As the Gods Will: The Second Series ( Kami-sama no Iu Toori Ni ) manga will end in five chapters. If there are no breaks, the manga will end in next year's combined fourth and fifth issue on December 28, 2016.

The manga launched in Weekly Shōnen Magazine in 2013 after the original Kami-sama no Iu Toori manga ran in Kodansha 's monthly Bessatsu Shōnen Magazine from 2011 to 2012. Crunchyroll has been simultaneously publishing chapters online along with the Japanese release, and Kodansha Comics has been releasing the compiled volumes digitally.

The story of the original horror-survival manga begins when strange and frightening things start happening at Shun Takahata's high school. After his teacher is killed, he and his classmates must play horrifying games in order to avoid death.
