While not the first or the last of the enduringly popular “popular person falls for unpopular person” sub-genre of romance anime, Say “I Love You” is probably one of the more complex of the lot with its complicated cast of characters and men who all have the coolest haircuts of all the shoujo boys. However, while the Say “I Love You” anime gave a good taste of the story, there is still quite a bit more to explore in the manga.

Where To Start The Say “I Love You” Manga After The Anime?
If you finished the Say “I Love You” anime and wish to continue the story with the manga, you can start at Chapter 29.
The anime adapts through all of Volume 7.
What to Expect From The Say “I Love You” Manga?
The Say “I Love You” anime starts off as a pretty good adaptation, but the anime starts to rush quite a bit and starts leaving things out around Episode 9 when Kai gets involved.
You may wish to start closer to Chapter 17 if you don’t just want to read the manga from the beginning. Do be aware that the anime did skip about two chapters closer to the beginning, so it gives reading the story from chapter one a little more value.
Is The Say “I Love You” Manga Over?
The Say “I Love You” manga is complete. It ended in 2017 with Chapter 73.
Will There Be A Say “I Love You” Season 2?
As the Say “I Love You” anime came out in 2012 and the manga is long concluded, I would say a season 2 isn’t going to happen.
