Shame it ended at just chapter 21. I was starting to get really invested into Risa's character besides just her strange personality. Had fun readiing this series though.

Welp kind of a nice way to end things I guess. It's a shame this series had to end this way. It looked promising at the begining but later chapters were kind of meh. Anyway we got Risa out of this manga so that's good enough for me.

Eh, I saw this coming. It's pretty unfortunate that this ended without anything being resolved tho. Even though I do think that this manga was pretty meh, I have to admit that there moments that enjoy from this, like the Phantom Thief arc.

I wish the author all the best and hope that he/she can do better with his/her future works.

It's a shame the manga ended so quick, I feel like ever since the mar arc the author found their footing and how they want to balance certain elements of the series. Like comedy, the more serious aspects, how to handle the characters. I found the premise very interesting and Risa could've been a very neat main character, plus I kind of liked the self-awareness with Sakon being such a cliché. It's a shame they never got much time to actually mourn Ukon (I really liked him rip sweet prince) and when they decided to kill him off I was quite honestly super surprised. Totally expected him to be around longer, or to actually not die?

Either way I assumed that they would leave the ending open and am sort of glad they did not try to cram a conclusion, however I now cannot help but wonder what the deal between Risa and her kidnapper was. Too bad we'll never know ... I wish Inaoka more luck and better sales next time, I hope this did not discourage them too much and they will be back with a new series soon. (And that maybe we will get a few answers on their twitter...)

Damn that was really disappointing how it just ends like that, I thought there'd be a shoehorned conclusion to the kidnapping case. I binged the whole series today (I've been meaning to read it for a while but I'm lazy) and I really enjoyed it. The hand guy and mAR arcs in particular were the best to me, and it was almost like a greek tragedy watching a lot of long term plot points get set up while knowing the series was already axed. I absolutely loved the concept and I liked seeing Risa get into all of her antics.

I hope the author is able to find success elsewhere, WSJ is a very unforgiving place.

rip. the start was actually really interesting and it could have definitely been better. I think i saw someone say it could be the next death note lol. Unfortunately it had to end like this.

i guess it was fine and i enjoyed it for the most part.

Knew the axe would come sooner or later, but was a little surprised to find out this was it. I was kinda rooting for it after the horrible "prologue" since it did get a lot better, but at the same time knowing the axe would hit eventually I'm glad it's over so something new can have a go.

It's a shame that this manga is getting cancelled, but that's what happens when you have a pretty good manga that has a pretty poor start. This manga should have just started with the MAR arc and cut every chapter that came before. It's because the MAR arc was so good that I believe the editors let this manga live for a bit, because I thought this would get axed around chapter 10.

Hopefully the author learns from his mistake and does better next time.

Honestly expected this to join the U19 club but it managed to hold on for two more weeks until now to make room for the new manga Red Hood that I can't wait to get around to.

Anyway, we all knew the ax was coming sooner or later. From the start, I felt it was an interesting premise but not one that would manage well in WSJ. Then came the issues in the writing. The art was good though so I hope the sensei can come back soon with something new just as interesting if not more. Would be a good idea to partner up with a senior writer maybe to solve that. Either way, I'll be looking forward to sensei's next work!

Rip. First shounen jump series i followed since week one. A little disappointed about such a sudden ending but overall I cant be too upset given it wasnt exactly amazing and it was pretty clear that it would be axed sooner or later.

I predicted less than 20 chapters and it held out for 1 extra. That's something, I suppose. All in all, good premise, but terrible execution and Sakon being a main all dragged it down to the depths.
