Manga was axed because author was harassing mangaka of Yani Nako through multiple accounts on social media.

Just to add infomation in case you're interested

-
- the mangaka of Yami Neko is group of mangaka like CLAMP
- The Mangaka of Satsudou wrote a letter to Kodansha anonymously where he wrote that he would like to pay money and settle things behind the scene but obviously didn't work out
- Because of the letter was written by hand, Kodansha was able to analyze the writing style and identify him as the culprit
- Since he was already suspected before that they were easily able to identify the writer of Satsudou
- Satsudou is made by two creators, the one who spread BS on social media was the writer
- the writer was apparently jealous of yami neko's success
- he complaint not only about Yami Neko but also about Kodansha in general
- It's not axed but just on hiatus because the writer of Satsudou Yukinaga denies everything above
- In the end we gotta wait since all the information above is actually not officially released by Kodansha....
- It could be that Kodansha wants to avoid releasing some statement, cause Satsudou is quite the popular manga after all
- Maybe they didn't expect Yukinaga to be the culprit and they just wait for the right timing, or it's really just BS in the first place
- be careful what you write on the internet, if the opponent got money you're gonna regret it lol
- *update* now it's really canceled.. RIP

Between him, Watsuki and the Act Age guy, why can't mangaka just be fucking normal?

Take care of yourself

I sort of feel bad for the author. He probably is what can called "mentally unstable", and likely placed too much of their worth on the success of their own work. This is not to justify what they did, but they were likely someone whose experiences emotions to their extreme, be it extreme jealously or extreme despair. As disgusting as their harassment was of Yamineko, it was not some irredeemable act.

Yes, I am placing my bets on suicide. If it is, they absolutely did not need to kill themselves. They did not need to do any of this. What a fucking waste.
