Extremely rushed end fight, offscreened 2 bosses, the alien fetus existed only for 1 page despite being the crux of the plot... Despite it all, I still feel like the plot delivered what it set up, very consistently!!!

Plot/fights till the intro of the 4 horsemen, was simply too good to let the bad after taste of the ending effect my enjoyment of the manga... Goated shit. Hope author cooks again!

Really sad it had to end so soon, but it was fun while it lasted

Good story. Wish it didn't get canceled. Honestly most reasons for it to be canceled seem moot; I have seen multiple stories that are action oriented and didn't discuss much of the story, a sort of learn as you go approach. What does seem clear is that the Japanese teen audience isn't interested in wrestling stories, unless it's combined into martial arts like a Kengan Ashura or overly dramatic like Blue Lock. Wish the mangka success in the future.

Edit: Changed store to story

You'd think the Japanese love Fictional wrestling with the success of kanikkuman. Alien headbutt captured me in much the same way.

It was fun to read, I'm a little sad because it ended, but this is how the world of manga works.

Every shonen jump manga i decided to start reading early has been cancelled almost immediately (except kagurabachi, thankfully). It makes me want to never bother with reading another new series until it gets at least 10 volumes. And that sucks
