The manga Matcha Made in Heaven, a creation by author Umebachi Yamanaka, will go on a brief hiatus. However, the series’ return is already confirmed for this year of 2026, keeping fans’ expectations high. The work, which tells the story of a woman who decides to radically change her life after a failed marriage, has won over readers since its debut in Kodansha’s Be Love magazine in October 2020.
The break was announced by the author herself on her social media, assuring that the story will continue. This decision comes at a crucial moment, as the 13th compiled volume of the series was released in August of last year. The next one, volume 14, is scheduled for release on February 13, 2026, promising to keep fans fed with more content. Thus, the series remains relevant to the Brazilian audience, who continue to follow news from the manga world.
Series Trajectory and Future
Since its debut, the series has published 13 volumes through publisher Kodansha, solidifying its narrative about new beginnings and passion for cooking. The hiatus, therefore, is seen as a moment for the author to plan the next story arcs. Thanks to licensing by Kodansha USA Publishing, the manga also reaches international readers, reinforcing its popularity.
Thus, fans can rest assured. The hiatus is temporary and the story of Matcha Made in Heaven is far from over. With the return scheduled for this year and a new volume arriving in February, 2026 promises to be an exciting year for followers of the work. Stay tuned for more news about the return of this sweet and inspiring journey.
