Kaku is back. And he is in Jump now with another wild manga with yakuza, yokai and supernatural sutff with fun and crazy characters. Art is great as you'd expect. I love the character designs. But when I saw Maruo's design, I thought, "Huh, Kaku really made his protagonist the most jump like it can get." But guess what, it was intentional and Maruo is actually a big fan of shonen manga and that's why he's imitating it. Great start. Really hyped for it. Hope Kaku can find success in Jump too.

Very promising start. I hope this series delivers on its premise and leans heavily into the yakuza theme.
Protagonist felt a bit too genre-savvy, but the art is on point ( as expected of Kaku) and the jokes landed for the most part.

Quite a promising premise, really liked it. The parodies were really funny. Liked the protag and the loli yakuza girl. Hopefully this'll be a fun ride.

Lol, Kinniku Buster caught me off guard.

Nice start. The premise of the MC living his childhood dream seems fun. Let's see where it goes from here. Kaido is a fitting name for someone who appears to be the strongest creature. However, I could do without the waifu bait.

Off to a great start? Nothing new or innovative, but the execution was good. Seems like a mix between Jujutsu Kaisen’s world and Chainsaw Man’a quirky characters

The premise reminded me of Tokyo Ghoul. The rules and stuff between monsters and humans etc. The mc's goals is basically to become a manga protagonist. All the references were pretty fun. Aside from that, it looks promising for sure. Kaku's back with another supernatural manga. It has some similarities to Hell's Paradise. It should become a pretty good serie later. The kid is basically Saitama with hair and a mix of other shounen protagonists. I LIKE IT!

pretty decent beginning

chapter 1 didnt hook me as much as hells paradise did but im pretty interested in the abilities of urara

Mc is sort of a meathead and punches hard which is pretty generic but i think the girl and him can form a pretty amusing duo... also his motive is interesting lol. i wonder if in the future, something will make him question his own motives in some way and how hed react to that...

anyway, ill keep reading this

This manga is a distillation of current trends in Shonen Jump and has easily one of the most straight forward elevator pitches. This leads me to believe this manga will have a low ceiling and won't rise to the top of the magazine. The good news is that the authors proven ability for execution and the ease of digesting the story means it has a low floor. This manga feels like it will have a good run in the upper middle of the magazine.

I love the Yakuza series, so I am fucking in already from the setting alone lmao. They're even in Kabukicho. Maruo is a bit meta, but I like him. He reminded me of Saitama, except this time he ain't getting bored lmao. Regular human did Shounen training and it actually fucking worked. This seems like it's gonna be a lot of fun and it has potential too.

The 1st chapter is basically what if Saitama finally got what he wanted but also its supernatural yakuza edition

Pretty sure Kaku-sensei is gonna take a lil bit of time to set up the word and themes of the story (else this would become reparative and boring) which he can now thankfully do (cuz of his other AWESOME and decently popular series-Hell's paradise) without the infamous SJ axe

Top-notch and detailed art as expected by Kaku-sensei
Fun 1st chapter, loved the meta-joke and references though I'm not sure how I fell about the Hentai-protag version of Jotaro:

1000% agree. I've been trying to get into the Jump stuff that is more Sci-fi/normal fiction but it keeps getting cancelled. The only new-ish manga I'm reading that hasn't gotten cut is Sakamoto Days!

I mean this is still good and I'm gonna continue but I agree with your point.

Good first chapter, combination of two themes I love, yakuza and youkai. Also love me some yakuza family name dropping. I'm hopeful for this one. Also I should get around to Jigokuraku.

Yes, not relevant at all to know the creator's prior work to predict how the new one will shape up, you are 100% correct.

It's not a sequel so I don't see how any prior series has made is relevant to reading this one. That's like saying I need to read Dr. Slump before Dragon Ball or Yu Yu Hakusho before Hunter x Hunter. Makes no sense.
People aren't able to read properly, that must be why you didn't understand the chapter.

i believe he's saying if you read jigokuraku you would have more faith in the way he writes and that it's different from what you believe it to be i think that's what he meant? idk
