Is the Anime Really Finished?#
If you are wondering whether you can get a complete story just by watching the anime, the answer is a bit more complex. While there have been multiple anime releases, including a second season that began streaming in September 2021, the broader story continues in the source material.
The original Getsuyōbi no Tawawa Dōjin-ban manga began serialization on Twitter in 2015 and later moved to Weekly Young Magazine in 2020. Because the manga is still active—with news of serialization and periodic breaks as recently as 2026—the overall narrative is ongoing. If you only watch the anime, you’ll enjoy the comedic and romantic vignettes, but you’ll need to buy the manga to stay up to date with the full breadth of the series.
What to Expect and Who Is It For?#
Getsuyōbi no Tawawa Dōjin-ban (and its anime adaptation Tawawa on Monday) falls firmly into the comedy and romance genres. It is best suited for viewers who enjoy short-form content and lighthearted romantic tension. The appeal lies in its charming character interactions and the slice-of-life atmosphere of the series.
If you enjoy these themes, you might also want to pick up some official merchandise to show your support for the series.
