Not sure if anyone else is following the official site of the author, if not, and you have some basic understanding of japanese, you can head right over to http://usachu.seesaa.net/

 

To give you a short TL;DR non-moon version, In April 2014 the author posted about their health not recovering as hoped, and that after the short story (33.5) which we saw in the May issue of Comic Alive, they will reluctantly have to put the manga back on hiatus. The author said that while the outlook is better than last time and he wasn't told to 'get 18 months of rest or somesuch', we should still expect a few months before we see any new chapters.

 

Since then, we saw the 'abriged' electronic version release of the 6 volumes so far. Also, in June 2014, there was another post, with Pro Shiki writing how he's making a grumbly 'umumu~~' face at his health not improving as much as he thought, and how there will be a drama CD released - talk about late, it hit the market with volume 6.

 

I guess we need to wait patiently and hope.

I don't believe that reason of "very long" delayed release would be like this! keeping in faith to author will be well and will release new chapter asap.

The last Post from the authors Website is from 2014. So I guess there arenĀ“t any new News about this.

At this point, I don't think we'll ever see this continued again.

Sorry for taking long to revisit, now that I did, I managed to miss re-serialization post on their blog.

 

To give you a run-down of the news, in June 2016 the blog was updated. The TL;DR is, the author's health has been gradually improving, their illness in slow remission. The post also said that the author has actually been using the days when they felt particularly well to prepare for re-serialization - under the watchful gaze of their cats - and that they are aiming for the September issue of Comic Alive with manga restart. Then, in July, this was confirmed.

 

Now, with new chapters up, this has been confirmed.

 

On a private note, good job buying the manga - this is the first time since Kannagi that I see a manga not only restart, but actually get their publishing spot right back. If you haven't yet, gogo, show your support now!
