What a cliffhanger. I doubt Trap will get canceled...or will it? Hmm...

Yeah, I'm surprised the fan letter idea didn't pan out as I thought it would. One would think it would be somewhat a good idea to at least try to incorporate some of the popular ideas. But the editor brought up a good point about the story losing focus and Trap being in a Shounen themed magazine.

Yeah, Miura did good here. I think the result might have been worse if they went with that. One or two ideas might have been ok but it seems to me like they wanted to put too much...

Hiramaru got himself a Porsche; with GPS of course. LOL at his designer apartment too.

Still can't believe that Otter 11 is getting an anime adaption soon. I wanna read Otter 11 right now >_>

I think they might just scrape through although getting Hideout cancelled would be a way to prolong Bakuman and maybe inject a tiny bit of life into it. The life of and troubles of a mangaka just aren't interesting enough for this to carry on for much longer. Hopefully the end is near.

Ahh, Bakuman and their all mighty suspense. They always do this, which drives me crazy! It's to good!

Anyways, they're probably going to get canceled. And I'm going to go with what Clearsinz guessed randomly. The manga is called Bakuman for a reason, so I'm guessing that they'll come out with a new manga called Bakuman.

I also think they'll get canceled...or I'm just really hoping they do. Idk why, but I just hope Trap gets tanked that way they can start anew and go through more hardships.

This manga goes through dates really fast though, lol. Before you know it the main characters are gonna be in their 30s. xD

YAY!!!! Cliffhanger!!! We all love them, don't we people?!! Lol... MAn this chapter really shows us the drama most of the mangakas face in their way to stardom...Oh my so they're still in danger... adn them being in 17th in the 27th chapter and on 15 the last one makes me wonder if they will ever make it and get an anime... I feel they will get canceled... It's too uncommon for a first timer long running manga to be a hit... Well maybe the title of this manga will finally make sense the next 10 or so chapters if they're really canceled next week... Man Aoki lost it... Poor Nakai... He couldn't do anything to save his own butt... I guess Ms. Aoki didn't follow Miura's advices XD.... They should've gotten more shounen-ish XD... So the fan letters went bad :P XD... Well that ain't a surprise... Just as Mr. Miura said... not always the fan suggestions are a good idea... And they have to make his own manga... not a fan's manga :P Well done Mr. Miura :P

I'd have to agree that this is viable seeing as that author was fretting as well, guess we'll have to wait and see though.

if Detective Trap gets canceled instead of Cheater Thief, I'm going to blame the Editor-in-Chief's bias against them :/

I reckon. Although, Aoki would probably never see him that way anyway.

And agreed with the general consensus that Trap gets cancelled. It makes sense for them to have to start all over again, plus it's an ironic tie-in for the title of the series. They'll wallow in self-pity for a while before coming back with 'Bakuman' and use their experiences for material.

On another note, a random Hiramaru appears. I love that guy.

No way Trap gets cancelled - it'll mean the two aren't good enough, and the should be at this point. They'll never surpass Niizuma if they start over from scratch.

I'm happy their editor made that point about fan suggestions - even a cursory look at this forum makes it obvious that mangakas should never base their manga on their opinion.

What a cliffhanger, This manga's author really knows how put readers on the edge of their seats every chapter.
I don't think TRAP will last as a long running shonen manga, Takagi and Mahiro will be forced to finish it because they're way too young and they really need more experience.
And Hiramaru getting a porsche, hilarious XD.

Have her do a Koogi lol. Although imo that just shows how pathetic Nakai is though, Aoki realised it wouldnt last yet accepted that and stuck by her guns where as Nakai is just desperate

lmao, Hiramarus face when he relaised he is being caged in lmao

Priceless :)

He thinks he has freedom but alas hes just like a trapped rat lol

He is the only reason why i want them to hurry up an animate this, for everything else in it i want them to wait and not ruin this series, but the idea of seeing Hiramaru in anime form *drool*

I love this series

Why the hell do you assume that?

Thsis manga would take forever if that happened

the baku in bakuman could mean bonds as in the bonds in which the characters share?

Not sure about the man though

it could also apparently mean Burst of laughter man

them being cancelled would be so well annoying

I think they will end up being canceled. They've been in trouble for a while. But... ughhh I don't want to read about them going through the process all over again. Do not want.

I can't believe that Nakai betrayed Aoki like that. I never expected it, after all he did for her.

I hope they don't end up writing Bakuman. That would be terribly cliche. :/.

Hiramaru was hilarious. I couldn't stop laughing at that moment.
But then again, the cliffhanger broke everything. How I hate cliffhanger but at the same time I love 'em, especially in Bakuman.
I honestly hope they won't get cancelled and I even think they won't. Why? Dunno, just a random thought that popped in my mind when I was reading the cliffhanger again.
Tell me how it feels, breaking down the old walls.

And the chapter rly isn't much of a cliffhanger if you read it a week late. >_-

Taking adv. of Trap's hiatus, but it's good that the fans think Thief was unoriginal
Hiramarus porsche and condo, Mr. Yoshida's cleverness pawns him
Oh so its been 3yrs now, Azuki's 18, but the dream haven't been met yet
Judgment time!

To the guy above, it would be bad if they feature a character that always tops everything with no mistakes or so

This manga is so engaging. I always finish each volume in one sitting. (Yes, I'm old-fashioned. I like holding books.)

I actually know "Trap" will be cancelled eventually. I don't like "Trap" myself and can't image it realistically being the type of manga that is popular enough to get an anime. And this is a (mostly) realistic manga.

Yandere-chan said:

Here here.

And I don't get why everyone thinks Nakai betrayed Aoki. (She wasn't worth loyalty in the first place.) And the important thing is: They're both being true to themselves. She by being unwavering about her "vision." And he just really wants to keep being published. They were never a good match (professionally) to begin with.

I like how manic Hiramaru is. He goes through wild swings of emotion and confidence. His editor does what it takes to reign him in and keep him producing.

Hideout Door is finished huh? It's respectable that Aoki would rather accept their fate then butcher her story out of desperation. It's clear she genuinely cares a lot about her story and characters.

Holy shit Nakai what are you doing lmao? There goes that good working relationship he built up with Aoki that literally almost costed him his life. He really does come across as pathetically desperate sometimes. Go write your own story, buddy.

the battle of "how to keep the manga" between ashirogi and ko and nakai is good.
though nakai is kinda right, i'm with ko there, story should follow the writer, not the editor or the illustrator.
takagi though found really good "battle" style for trap, too bad he took time to realise it.

hiramaru as usual xD
