A Ninja and an Assassin Under the Same Roof, the popular action-comedy manga, is living on borrowed time. The revelation came this January 2026 weekend, right after the release of the sixth physical volume of the work. According to the released information, the series created by HundredBurger will reach its conclusion in the seventh volume, which still does not have an official release date. The ending marks the end of the journey of the ninja Satoko and the assassin Konoha, two characters who have won fans in Brazil and worldwide with their unique and chaotic dynamic.
The plot, which has already received an anime adaptation, follows the unlikely cohabitation between the two protagonists. Satoko, a young ninja fleeing her village due to a misunderstanding, ends up sharing a house with the lethal and unfriendly assassin Konoha. Despite their differences, they form a peculiar pact: Konoha offers protection against Satoko’s pursuers, while the ninja takes care of cleaning the house and, why not, her roommate’s professional “messes.” The series stands out for balancing action and comedic situations, a formula that earned it a nomination for the Next Manga Awards in 2022, in the Best Print Manga category.
Trajectory and Where to Follow
The story began its publication on the online platform Comic Dengeki DaiohG, from publisher Kadokawa, in August 2021. Since then, it has won readers and evolved into other formats. For the Brazilian audience, the good news is that Seven Seas Entertainment holds the English licensing rights, which facilitates access for local fans. The first English volume arrived in stores last December, paving the way for more people to discover the series. Meanwhile, the 12-episode animated version, which premiered in April, remains available for exclusive streaming on Crunchyroll.
Therefore, although the original manga prepares for its final arc, the legacy of Satoko and Konoha remains alive. Thus, fans who have not yet dived into this universe have the opportunity to follow the story from beginning to end, either through the manga pages or the anime episodes. The announcement of the end, although sad for followers, ensures a planned conclusion for this narrative about survival, strange friendships, and lots of humor amidst chaos.
