Its not that bad a time for Bakuman to finally end on a high, after all the recent chapters are more than decent. But again, I would not complain if they continued on with the manga but with some promising new plots and story.

But please let Mashiro finish his little love story with Miho already.

Enishi · 2012-03-29, 12:15

As the saying goes, the World is going to the end at December, 21. :-D They’ll have time. ;-)

Xellos-_^ · 2012-03-29, 13:06

eight chapters sounds about right. Another arc and a wedding would be a good time to end BM.

for their next manga they can do a spinoff with Hiramaru and his editor

amasposu · 2012-03-29, 13:42

8 chapters of Reversi does not equate to 8 chapters of Bakuman. o_o;;

Lexxus · 2012-03-29, 14:05

^ Yeah that's what I think also. I assume it will last about 15-20 chapters before Miho becomes the seiyuu for Reversi.

LeaD36 · 2012-03-29, 15:39

^this certainly seems like a build-up for a final arc, though i firmly believe that the ending scene will be their wedding + a shot of the protagonists looking up into the vast sky, thinking "the rivalry for the worlds best manga is still ongoing and will last forever" or smth like that
kinda like an open ending, but closed on all the relevant fronts

It’s about 4—5 months! Oh, c’mon!

Lexxus · 2012-03-31, 05:27

Those two are really stubborn. Oh wait, since from the start they were stubborn to begin with

Anyway, I really don't see 8 chapters in reversi is equal to 8 chapters of Bakuman. I could be wrong but like I said, I think it will last a minimum of 15 chapters.

totoum · 2012-03-31, 06:24

So wait Natsumi the assistant is still up for grabs?All you guys can have Rina!Take me Natsumi! Take me!

Oh yeah right the chapter.

What I wonder is how Hattori will convince the editor in chief to let them end the manga now?

Darth SpiderDen · 2012-03-31, 07:11

15-20 chapters seem like a lot before Miho becames the seiyuu since the mangaka has used less than that to resolve some major situations in the storyline before.
I see it more like 9-10 chapters at top.

Proto · 2012-03-31, 08:02

Ahahaha. coming soon: the firing Hattori arc.

ryuusei · 2012-03-31, 08:02

Why does everyone want this manga to end? Its not like your life ends after you've achieved your dreams. You go and find another one worth achieving!

Somnus · 2012-03-31, 09:55

Ah...alright, things are a little more tolerable now that I've read the full chapter (which was great, btw).

The reason Mashiro's delaying the marriage a bit is because he's planning something. I can't wait to see what he has in mind. Also, the little discussion the two had about money made me smile. I'm happy they were able to become so well off doing what they dreamed of. Brings back memories of when Takagi was first calculating how much they would get paid for their first one-shot.

Also, I was only half joking about the 8 chapters thing. I thought it would have been an interesting way to foreshadow, but there really is a lot to go over if they want to conclude it properly and 8 chapters would be rushing it immensely. However, much to my dismay, Bakuman IS at a point where it can begin to wrap everything up. Either way, this will stay as one of my favourite manga of all time.

Also, it looks like your waifu is quite popular, eh poisui? Ha ha ha.

Enishi · 2012-03-31, 11:00

They’re so beautiful. I’m so happy! ;-)

By the way, Death Note also has two parts. Is it a hint?

Well, it is a manga, and story always have an ending. We know that Mashiro's dreams that driven him so far are to marry Miho, and defeat Eiji to become no.1 mangaka together with Takagi. Since his marriage with Miho pretty much a done deal now, we only have the grand battle with Eiji left.

Well, the author could drag it, but I honestly doubt he would.

If its his first successful work (w/ anime adaptation etc...). I believe he might drag it. Look at Naruto/Bleach, both of these crap dungs are overdue themselves

If you're talking about Reversi, I highly doubt Mashiro would decide to drag the story and they did reveal in the end that they want to end it.

If you're talking about Bakuman., these guys are the makers of Death Note and that ended with 110 chapters even though its popularity was very high then. They don't drag things and if they wanted to end Bakuman, I'm sure they will. After all they will contradict themselves if the manga was talking about not dragging on the series but the series itself is.

Ascaloth · 2012-03-31, 12:24

Most important piece of info this chapter: Mina gets around much more than her elder sis does.

because it is better for a story to end on a high note then drag out for so long that it when it finally ends it is consider a mercy kill.

SoFarGone · 2012-03-31, 14:09

probably end at 200 or something.
