of course! the spider majik that i absolutely forgot about since we havent seen since ichi acquired. i thought ichi was going for pressure points to immobilize him
fight scene be like
I'm just a Holy Fool, oh baby
It's so cruel, but I'm still in love with Judas, baby
I'm just a Holy Fool, oh baby
It's so cruel, but I'm still in love with Judas, baby
the spider majik who got brutalized earlier is now utilized to restrain the brutalizer. feels poetic
and since ichi's clothes got torn off, how about using the same majik to mend it? imbue Ariadne's power to some sewing needles and it would make a very strong seams
Going by stats on MAL and number of comments on MangaPlus it doesn't seem to be super popular over here but as far as Japan is concerned this is what I could find at a quick look https://x.com/al_mavivi/status/1900385169556545679
1. One Piece 111 — 745 833 4. Kagurabachi 6 — 102 209 5. Ao no Hako 19 — 98 108 6. Sakamoto Days 21 — 74 206 7. Ruri Dragon 3 — 72 514 9. Madan no Ichi 2 — 49 340 15. Yozakura Family 29 — 31 489 29. Negai no Astro 4 — 13 437
Afaik, Oricon sales tracking isn't entirely reliable but if those numbers are in the ball park I'd say they're good enough to save this manga from the axe for a good while. Iirc, Sakamoto Days sold less per volume at start than Ichi but here it still is at volume 21 (its sales did improve over time tho' but for the first couple of volumes lower numbers were enough to keep it from getting axed).
