Nodame Cantabile Manga Ends in Two Week

Not ALL the news comes from New York this weekend

 
Surprise! Well, maybe not. Everyone's favorite musical prodigies will be concluding their story on October 10th. Currently standing at 22 volumes, Tomoko Ninomiya has alluded to the series ending before, but two weeks? Oh well, it doesn't make too many waves over here. Del Rey is currently localizing Nodame Cantabile and released volume 16 just this July.
 
Its terrible, but I'm probably 10x more likely to check out the manga now that I know it has an ending. Anyone else like that? Afraid to start a short story and then end up with a One Piece?

I hope it doen`t have an ending like To Love-Ru what a boring short ending just to tell that its gonna continue :C

Guess this explains why Nodame Cantabile's third season coming up in January is being called "The Final."

@Dream: Nods. Is the anime worth checking out? I enjoyed the first two or so volumes I read.

@John_Martone: First season's definitely worth checking out and is one of several titles I'd like to see get licensed at some point. The second season is decent, though be warned that it will seem rushed thanks to the short number of episodes it has compared to the first season.

OH MY GOD IT'S ENDING! 
    Yeaaaah! Can't wait to read the last few volumes (on either 14 or 15).
