| Like everyone said.. manga was worth reading but ending was... :( and i also don't think they will make a sequel. and as one user said.. writer go should publish sequel from another publisher.. i don't think it will possible with this... because its dropped the lack of japanese audience. so another publisher might not get interested in publishing a series sequal which already got rejected from audience and from shounen jump. one of the most popular title.. |
| Damn it this manga was awesome, why did it have to end.... I thought: "Yay at last i found a nice manga" but in the end we can't have pretty things : / |
| ʕ • ᴥ • ʔ |
| indeed the manga's great. i was even hoping that taiga will be able to fulfill aika's wish and then i wonder if his memories will be erased and etc i got alot of want to see in this manga :p so great but sadly it ended like this but o well.... |
     |
| Damn it!!!! Why Did It Have To End!!!? The Manga Could Have Easily Had 99 More Chapters!! >< |
| yup...WSJ make mistake on this...it should not happen like this..if this manga made into an anime..i will surely give good rating to it |
 |
| Just finished it myself.. I loved it :3 Too bad it ended already.. So many unanswered questions! God, i have cancellations! WHY, OH WHY! |

StrayDog said: WTF who the fuck ends this manga....... this is bull f*cking sh*t................ freaking awesome manga........ Bull-f*cking-sh*t indeed. Honestly, Mx0 ends right where it needs to end; the title would no longer be relevant otherwise. However, I would very much like to see a sequel, since Kuzumi Taiga makes a fine protagonist. It's a huge shame that WSJ canceled something as good as this, considering the drivel that can go unchecked in shounen publications. I can only hope that this gets a great anime adaptation, which might spur the creation of a sequel. On the other hand, though, without the limitations of the M0 and a persona to maintain, Kuzumi would not be as often able to show off his problem-solving skills, which for me were always the highlight of the manga. There'll be no more "Oh, how will he manage to keep his guise up this time?" moments if he actually has a Gold Card. Granted, I have no reason to doubt the author's ability. |

| it was cancelled because it was too slow. Remember when in the begining he used gold plate and made cool magic? I was waiting for that again. The way it was i dropped it on 33 chapter. |
| It was getting really good:) i wish they would make a sequel. They should at least show him coming back and get somewhere with his crush!! |
| let's be optimistic! ;) though his new manga is very interesting and also the rating of it is very high so maybe it wont get cancelled or canned or because the author doesn't know what to do with it anymore loke mx0 (please?) :) |
princessnight said: It was getting really good:) i wish they would make a sequel. They should at least show him coming back and get somewhere with his crush!! The same here. It was very exciting to read....it was something else then just lets beat a crap from the bad guy with our powers ( like in other shounens) The main character was THINKING |

And it pisses me off. This. I find it way better thought out than Naruto, Bleach and the lot... What a shame. This manga was a gem among the shonen genre imo |

| All the matters in Shounen Jump of the series populations that's all it it. Since it's on the bottom lines and haven't reach so much in population they have to cancel it. |

| Ah. I was curious what this ending was but then I see it was in shounen jump. I'm not to surprised it was ended then... I feel like this series would have continued much longer if it was in a different magazine but I don't see it as a shounen really... |

| WHHHY? Seriously I really think this is one of the cool manga out there. It's really a shame. If this will be an anime I think it would be really great. |
 |
| well i'm starting to hate shounen jump (/and the people that buy it) more and more with every passing day, they really hate this mangaka not only did they axe Mx0, but Kagami no Kuni no Harisugawa and for what? some run of the mill extremely dull shounen mangas, and some other crap that cant even get a rating of 7.20+ |
| If I ever get rich I will start a manga co. and fund Yasuhiro Kano to make a sequel to MX0 and pretty face. |
| I don't think it is due to lack of fan service. A top-seller like Bleach has very little of that too and even less romance than Mx0. I have been reading a lot of manga since ages ago, even before Dragonball reached USA, so I would like to make a few guesses. 1) Could be due to the way magic works in Mx0? In other magic-based manga, if magic works then it pretty much works everywhere. Take the Harry Potter-verse for example. The students aren't allowed to use magic out of school, BUT it still works. So maybe this rule in the Mx0 world, that magic can only work in school, just doesn't appeal to fans of the magic school genre? Maybe it doesn't give them a sense of security? Thus making it hard for the reader to project himself into the world? Could there be readers out there who think, "Hey, I worked hard for my reward and so why aren't I allowed to keep it? Why do I have to return it to the teacher when I leave the school?" 2) Another rule of magic in that world states that once you graduate or transfer or drop out, you forget all magic-related memories. Again, that rule doesn't exist in other fictional works about magic schools. In Irregular at Magic High (a more recent work), the whole point of magic high schools is to make sure you know your magic and GRADUATE with that knowledge so you can be useful. In Harry Potter as well. But in Mx0, it was only later (towards the end) when it was revealed that Black Plate holders are exceptions. For all others, perhaps 99% of the student body, they get their memories wiped. I think that rule makes it less appealing to fans of school and magic school genres. After all, even in fictional works about normal high schools, it kinda renders the whole story pointless if you are told beforehand that the protagonists and his pals will forget their most precious memories IMMEDIATELY after leaving school. Then what's the point of the story arcs lasting 3 years? What's the point of intense fights and training WHEN THEY WILL JUST FORGET EVERYTHING AFTER LEAVING SCHOOL? So perhaps readers don't want to invest too much emotion into a story that's supposed to be about making memories with precious friends when those memories can be so easily forgotten. There's no sense of security there, when hard-won rewards can be so easily taken away. Hard work leads to victory. Hard work leads to rewards. That's a dominant theme in Shonen Jump series. But when the victory is only temporary and rewards can expire after a short amount of time, then what's the point? So yeah, perhaps it wasn't due to lack of fan service. Could be the two rules of magic that runs contrary to the idea of how magic should work, as established by other fictional works about magic. |
| If I had to venture my guess, the greatest issue many readers would have with the manga is the pace of the story. Despite all the genres that MAL claims it to be of, it is essentially slice of life in a magic setting. It is an enjoyable read, but the overall progression is really slow. There is not much of an overarching plot until the very late parts of the story, where it probably was already too late. You see Kuzumi take exams, participate in magic battles, join the student council, try to change the past and so on in fairly limited arcs with little connection. Meanwhile, the characters and the relationships between them barely advance, if at all. New characters, especially temporary foes, are introduced the entire time and leave the story immediately after. It does not matter whether the reader is looking for a bare-bone shonen, a slice of life story or an interesting fantasy/school setting, neither of those work with this sort of character-handling. For me as a reader none of this was a detriment to my enjoyment, but I can see how people would be turned off by the lack of progression and connection in the story. |

Tumerking said: Theres not even a point of saying "what if". Never has a series been picked back up years after it was cancled. It's never happened and it won't happen. Mx0, while being an awesome series, is too unpopular. There won't be anymore Mx0 anime. There won't be anymore Mx0 manga. There won't be anymore Mx0 anything. It's dead. what about hunter x hunter? |
| Sonic X is basically an isekai |
| Wsj Japanese readers sucks and have worst taste imo |

| It's very unfortunate ending. Great story, I liked all the work that has been done to breathe some life to characters. Especially Main one - Taiga, it was very interesting and refreshing to see actually some intelligence and wits and not some "I'm overpowered from the start and I'm going to fight gradually increasing threads to be best of all..." Maybe it was too slow to progress? For 99 chapters about school to be only in a half of first year it not very fast. Or the reason was magic rules itself? I don't particularly like the idea for about 99% students to end up forgetting everything and not able to use magic afterward graduation. It seems somewhat empty for these not so fortunate guys at school to end up with some messed up fake memories. For me it seems like not been able to use magic off some spots wasn't that dangerous, but still it's a bit unusual and that could be reason why public interest dropped. Lack of fanservice wasn't bothering me at all, even when it's labeled as ecchi, there is not really a need for unnecessary panty shots out of place and 3+ pool/sea/hot spring vacations for year. It was fun, It certainly had great feeling into it. I just had to compare here to Yamada and 7 witches...Why? It's also supernatural school theme, but completely different, where Mx0 ended up so abruptly in half of story, the latter one mentioned surpassed the point where it should have ended and continue on. Sometimes I feel so close to Japanese culture, but yet so far, when I see what is really popular in there. |
| there really are a lot that suffer the same way though. kind of annoying since a lot of the more "popular" ones are really boring, crummy or just simply blind fan service. really is annoying |
 |
| What the hell. Such bullshit. I honestly don't get why it always seems to be that the great series are getting cancelled. I really really liked this manga. Only to find out that it has been cancelled and won't get a sequel... I don't get any of the arguments that have been said either. Sure, the pacing may nit have been the best - But honestly, it didn't bother me personally either. Saying that there was "not enough fan service" is, in my opinion, bullshit too - What else was all that boob grabbing and naked fairy etc etc if not fan service (I usually dont like fanservice/ecchi at all but in here it didnt bother me either)? And yeah, the story was different than the usual weak-getting-strong of op-af MC. And that isn't a bad point. I mean, c'mon. I'm not blaming anyone or calling other opinions bad, but why are mangas like this one cancelled, awesome anime like Legend of the Legendary Heroes not getting sequels, etc, while meanwhile we get the same braindead ecchi-magic-school-with-random-apocalyptic-monsters-and-super-OP-MC-with-hidden-powers clones every single season. I mean, I don't mind if people like them, but how can people not like this stuff too? |

I mean, I don't mind if people like them, but how can people not like this stuff too? Well these is the reason why Jump cancelled this manga; lack of fan-service, most of time the story focus on main character get power-up more than the story itself, boring story telling (For Japanese people's opinion ONLY), romance story (Well Jump hate the romance story after all), unpopular rating in Japan, and the biggest reason is this manga have the same element as To Love-Ru series and it way more popular than this manga. |
| Even though it's been pretty old as far as I remember and/or can assume those were probably the reasons back in the day as I loved reading the manga: - The pace/progression might have been too slow - It had to compete in one of the worst environments with One Peach, Naruto and Bleach having a very high standing (The name "Big 3" doesn't come from nothing) And, as far as I remember this manga Mx0 was always like ranked at 4-5. Maybe this one was ahead of its time to really be appreciated?! We will probably never know, since I really liked everything (setting, characters, artstyle) and even appreciated the slow pace. |
| A decade later, and still wish this would get a sequel. |
 |
| My first manga that I loved, and first to break my heart. more than 14 years later, Gonna remember it forever. |
 |
| I feel like it being so different to the usual battle manga format is what killed it. As some users mentioned above, this is basically a slice-of-life manga with magic elements in it. It was getting interesting towards the end but even I have to admit, in comparison to other battle manga, this is pretty boring. I liked it but it's not hard to understand why WSJ didn't think it was worth continuing, especially if something more in the vein of traditional battle manga would be have a higher chance of being popular. |
