while i think the ending is a bit early, at least it isn't being drag out till the corpse is a stinking rotting mess *looks at Bleach.

There is no way he can finish this in a decent way even with a 60 pages long chapter. There are 5 heads, Enchou and Seimei remaining. This will turn into a one hit kill festival. This will be worse than Psyren. I really hope for an open ending or a continuation.

^ I'm not worry about that, but who's gonna be the "end girl"? Don't please be the human girl >_<

I want Yura!

I wonder if the editors of the magazine were suggested to drop Nura because albeit on the surface it is a shonen fighting manga, at the core it is a Yakuza apology. That is the only reason that comes to mind since no matter how I see it this is too sudden.

Yura or Yuki, both are better than the normal girl that lacks charisma... I forgot her name again

Gitsune so Rikuo can say to Semei,

Abe, i am your (step)father :heh:

NOOOOOOO! :heh:

Oh and Tsurara ending of course.

If it helps you, it seems Shiibashi had a child.

Financially speaking wouldn't it be the worst moment to start a new series? most mangaka's produce one successful manga after another.

midway into the final arc?

What a weird place to cancel a series

Then again.. if this was a manwha it would probably "end" here.

Then we'll have a time skip and continue the story in a new serialization

My guess is that he would move to the monthly magazine if it is a problem. But even with a daughter (who was born months ago) he was able to produce quality art.

I needed more Gitsune-sama!!!!!!!!! :sad:

What the heck? I thought the tankoubon sells nicely. Was the ranking that bad? o_O

After reading chapter 207 (which was just a set-up chapter), I still say it's impossible to wrap up the story properly in only 60 pages.

The rankings were mostly bad, but the sellings were excellent. The series isn't ending because of its popularity in the TOC though.

If that's the case, why did it end?

The author had been asking for monthly serialization for months. This combined with the fact he just had a child was an increase if his working time, thus he's moving to monthly magazine, for the last chapter and for his next project.

I know there are theories of this (I also theorize that this is the case), but is there any confirmation of this claim?

I acctualy think 207 was really well done for what the author is up against it didn't feel as rushed as i first believed and it kinda melded well with earlier chapters. granted it's definately still rushed given the circumstances, I still think it was a good set up chapter.

So what date will the next chapter arrive?

I see August issue at the end of the chapter, so that means when in July?
