this can't be the end of this right

Man, the axe hit hard with this one.
Were any of story/plot points even closed or explained properly?

 

[ErikTheRed]

So she was his mother all along and the cosmic censors were actually kinda bad.
Not a good way to wrap things up for such a promising series.

 

[Jachinz]

TY for sticking with the TL for this series.
It sucks that it ended the way that it did but I blame the overall pacing of the story. To much went unanswered for so long.

 

[wanfai]

Just... huh.
So endless cycle story eh.

 

[Albertillo]

Man... One rare cool sci-fi series that was interesting and it got the guillotine treatment.
Does anyone know why it got axe? I don't think it got overly tedious/monotone/stale.
Oh well, time to wait for the next planet-alignment for another interesting sci-fi manga.

 

[Smokron]

Wow....I have no idea what was going on.

 

[dafzetxd]

you gonna be kidding me what an cliff hanger for a series

It really did, a couple of chps ago, I was wondering how is this series gonna end in a few chps with so much left unexplained, introducing maki childhood friend a major story character that apparently is from the previous universe and a part of the other group and information right at the end of the series. The flow of the story should have been paced from beginning, middle and end not just right at the end with the info dump, then it turns out the censors are the bad guys. I still have so many questions, but I don't know, this series had at least another 30+chps easy. I enjoyed the premise of the story, unfortunately it just wasn't executed properly.

I feel that was the authors F-U to everyone for having to cut it short

 

[Bornsinner]

Dammit I really wanted more!

 

[Siderealist]

Cosmic Censors couldn't stop the Axe, sadly. Thanks for TLing this series!

I think the issue was that the mystery box was played into too hard and the female lead was just too passive/static. Instead of actively seeking to understand the mysteries of the series she basically passively waited for those mysteries to be explained to her. In a well done mystery the readers and characters should be detangling the mysteries at roughly the same rate. In several cases various "mysteries" where comprehended by the readers well before the characters who were implied to have more information than the readers solved or explained it.

Thank you for the translation.

Unfortunately, not even they can stop the axe.

Just because the world is destined to die doesn't mean you shouldn't attempt to prevent it from happening. Although they were going overboard with their reboots. The amount of reboots the Cosmic Censor did is something that even DC comics could be proud of.

Expected the axe, story is crap but good drawings. I will not miss this work. Hopefully the author will start new manga but he need to hire a writer.

Yeah it was hardly perfect, but you’re telling me there’s more appetite for a thousand shitty power fantasy isekai harem manga than there is for this? Anyhow it’s a decent end to the arc, name-drop of Roger to develop intrigue, maybe in some timeline the author will be able to continue it. Like as a Twitter comic, or through a pay-per-view host.

 

[nachtness]

lol Ryuuichi's manga got axed

again smh

The events of this final arc could have been a great catalyst for Maki to actually start trying to figure shit out herself, but alas.
