Since a lot of people are in this comment section right now due to all the updates that got dropped on here, I thought it would be helpful to write some information on the current series status:
-Currently, Sekaiichi Hatsukoi, as well as Junjou Romantica, update three times a year, every four months at the end of April, August, and December in a magazine called Emerald. (Yes, they made the magazine a real thing lol)
-The most recent chapter released as of this comment (November 23rd, 2023) is Ritsu Chapter 37.
-The countdown still isn't over, but at the current pace within the next year or so it's looking like it'll hit zero! As of August 2023, it's at three days left. We seem to be stuck at a day per chapter at this point.
-The series is **ONGOING** and anyone who says otherwise doesn't know better.
-Many plot points have been set up that cannot be resolved before the countdown ends, as they are months from the current story, so it's looking quite safe to assume that things will continue past the two becoming an official item.
If you have any questions about things, I'd be happy to answer. I have all the volumes and all the recent magazines that go past the chapters currently collected in volume form. (●'◡'●)ﾉ
you guys realize nakamura is releasing at least one ch of jr and sih consistently every four months and that it's the scan groups that are the ones taking awhile right? these chapters that just updated on this site came out all the way back in late august 2019.
And just bc there's no countdown box at the end of a ch doesnt mean it's ended. It's artistic choice, and if the boxes appear at all it has to be a ritsu pov ch. I feel like since barely any time has passed since ch 28 (probably not even 5 days?) she doesn't feel it's necessary to update it. We still have over 20 days left and at the pace we're going I doubt we'll being going faster any time soon
Hi all! The magazine Sekaiichi runs in announced ahead of this upcoming spring issue that the Ritsu chapter in it will be The Big One. It'll be a 68-page chapter in which there will be 0 days left on the countdown. To put things into perspective, Mangago is only up to Ch 35 that came out summer 2022, this upcoming Ritsu chapter will be Ch 38. I encourage you all to pick it up if you can, because I know it's a moment many have been waiting for! (●'◡'●)ﾉ

The magazine is Emerald Young ACE & will be sold on April 30th, June volume (6号). The cover is even Sekaiichi Hatsukoi with the "0 Days Until He Falls in Love" subtitle omfg（/TДT)/
Sorry, I meant (6月号). June volume.
Is there any English translation?
I don't think they do official translations for magazines but only the manga series published(￣∇￣")
Hi, looks like you got an answer already, but their are no official translations until it's compiled into a volume, the chapter will be in Volume 20 which won't even come out in Japanese until next year, probably not for another few years in English as they're only up to Vol 17 as of this May.
The magazine I was talking about above will be releasing April 30th, as I put in the title of my topic above. The link kimuchi added in their reply is correct :D If you're not in Japan at the time I'd recommend Amazon JP, as it ships directly without any sort of proxy to most countries: https://www.amazon.co.jp/dp/B0CTPKZB13/
darn ill be out of Japan by then ( T﹏T ) I'll check out Amazon when it does come out tho! Thank you!!
