Wait, what do you mean their story finally begins and part 1 complete. 😱
That's Hip Whip Girl all over again.It depends.
Sure, the consensus in this kind of situation is that the manga got "Axed", with "Axed" meaning "It got cut short by the publisher because of sales", but the reality is that there are many reasons for a manga to suddenly end, ranging from the author's health, to them simply getting bored with their story, to problems with their editors, and many more.
Hell, we recently saw the case of Schwinn's Hanamonogatari (Yuri manga) which got axed 3 vols in, despite vol 1 doing so well, that it reached the top list of Amazon's bestseller.
The reception of vol 1 was on the level of a popular shounen, and what did the publisher do?
Backstab the manga giving it absolutely 0 ADVERTISEMENT, not even on their official Twitter account, hell, their account wasn't even following the mangaka's, destroying all momentum by vol 2, and killing it by vol 3.
And we know all this because the author herself came out on Twitter to talk about the situation in wake of the support she was getting not only from Japanese fans, but also overseas, when the announcement of vol 3 being the final one came out.
So no, it's not always about money.
thanks for the hard workWell everyone, I guess that's it. This manga has ended, the dumpster fire has been extinguished.
I'd like to thank everyone for reading this manga and our group's translation of it. Thank you too and Shoutout to Goddess Scans for translating the manga before we picked it up.
Go support the author in any of their future works, as well as our group's!
