Is Love So Life Finished?#
When deciding whether to dive into Love So Life, the biggest question is often whether the story reaches a satisfying conclusion. While you can watch the anime on Prime Video, it is important to note that the narrative expands significantly in the source material.
If you are looking for the complete story, the anime is only part of the journey. The original manga, Love So Life, concluded its initial run in August 2008, but the story continues in a sequel manga titled Life So Happy, which ran from 2016 to 2017. Furthermore, fans of the series recently received a special 1-shot for Life So Happy in April 2023. To get the full resolution of the characters’ arcs, you will need to transition from the anime to the written materials.
