The anime adapts all of Volume 11.
What to Expect From The Skip Beat Manga?
The anime skips mostly cute fluff moments that flesh out characters a little more, but not in a plot-important way. This means that there is some worth to reading the series from the beginning, but it is not necessary.
Is The Skip Beat Manga Over?
The Skip Beat manga is, surprisingly, still ongoing. Since launching in 2002, it has slowed down release to one or two volumes per year.
Will There Be A Skip Beat Season 2?
While the Skip Beat manga is a shoujo powerhouse, the anime aired in 2008. As such a long time has passed, it is unlikely to receive a second season. Furthermore, its shoujo sensibilities have fallen a bit out of style in the anime world these days.
