I suspect some people have decided that Medaka Box is a deconstruction of all things shounen and then get upset when certain parts don't seem to match up their idea of what a deconstruction should be. I personally think MB has fun with shounen tropes, while sometimes containing deconstructive elements (particularly the characters of Kumagawa and Ajimu, though not always). But! I don't need it to be or not be a deconstruction to enjoy it! Even when I don't always like the direction of the manga, it's still damn entertaining every week. And thus, I sincerely enjoy it. /endrant

Main characters are supposed to be main characters you know. Its not just shounen thing. And no Luffy didnt get back up, he was knocked out cold, nearly died and did not defeat the guy but got himself a nice pair of new scars. |

The mangaka has more than enough money to never work again. He'll only come back if he 'feels' like it. |

Yeah I hope he comes back. The last couple of chapters really opened up the possibilities with lots of really intriguing plot points that he could continue on. Then there's the Kurapica gaiden which could continue a storyline that everyone is excited to revisit.
