Nice to see Shiori from KNIM again. I like how all of Seo's stories are in the same universe and you always see characters from past works show up occasionally.
Up to ch. 12
Their journey went too smoothly. Bakuman still better in the matter of progress. Bakuman has shounen vibes, fired you up but realistic. There are up and down, rise and fall.
I gotta admit that this is becomes weird when Tsubasa's dad is actually a famous author, something happened between them. Adding an unnecessary drama.
the thing about seo kouji, he prioritize the drama over progression, even if this is manga about mangaka, i bet it will eventually overrun with a whole load of unecessary drama.
