Where To Start The Nichijou Manga After The Anime?
If you have finished the Nichijou anime and simply need more, you can pick up the manga at Volume 7, Chapter 121.
Nichijou is somewhat unique in that the anime sometimes adapts full chapters, but just as often takes small pieces of certain chapters to work into the randomness of various episodes.
What this means is that you might recognize moments from Chapter 121 and beyond from the anime, but Chapter 120 was the last chapter the anime adapted in full.
I strongly recommend reading the Nichijou manga from the beginning because the anime does jump around with what it adapts, skips some chapters, and only adapts one or two scenes from some other chapters. However, due to the true non-story nature of Nichijou, you can also…just pick up the manga and go, too.
Is The Nichijou Manga Over?
The Nichijou manga is still ongoing. Since launching in 2007, it often goes multiple years in between releasing a volume.
Will There Be A Nichijou Season 2?
Nichijou is a long beloved anime and manga series, and since it did the unheard of and restarted the manga series after officially ending, I feel like it can just break any rule.
While there could very well be a Nichijou Season 2 anime someday, there has been no official announcement for one.
