Another week in the books. Let’s chat about manga in the general discussion thread! Feel free to use this thread for questions, comments, recommendations, etc.
Like normal, please be careful with spoilers. I wrote a guide about spoilers in case you need a refresher on how to handle them (also linked in the sidebar).
I haven’t had a lot of time to read much this past week, but I was able to read the conclusion of Otr of the Flame. Overall, I was enjoying it, but it was very obvious from the ending that it was axed waaay before the author intended. It was fun, but I don’t think it will be that memorable. I did really enjoy the art a lot.
One of the few other series I was able to keep up with this past week was Akira Failing in Love and the past couple chapters have been excellent. The series is really on a roll right now and it has quickly become a series that I really look forward to each week.

The author is the same as Hunter’s Guild: Red Hood, which had the same kind of rushed ending. There’s the saying “2 times is coincidence, 3 is a pattern”.
Regardless, I’m starting to wonder if the series aren’t getting axed early and instead the author just gets bored with an idea after a few dozen chapters and tries to wrap things up quick to move onto the next project. I don’t have proof, and it’s only been 2 instances so far, but it’s seeming like a potential explanation

Weekly Shonen Jump manga get axed really often. The magazine is kinda famous for it.

On one hand, A Cool Girl and a 12cm Promise got some new English chapters after two months of quiet. On the other, I once again have to migrate over 20 series due to Mihon source getting hit.
You win some, you lose some, I guess.
