ye if this gets popular it will become a long manga and not a short manga like they are planning here and thats good for gege too since he no longer needs to draw and just focus on the story
now if only togashi of hunter x hunter will finally hire an artist to draw his manga while he focuses on the story only will make the fans happy about that too

| It's the same thing, just a case of loanword being romanised back. Modulo -> モジュロ - > Mojuro. |

| Hopefully Gege will now have a more flexible schedule, given how his problems with the regime (in his words) affected his writing. @GoodBoy0069 As far as I understand, the manga will be illustrated by a different person this time. @deg Also Kaguya and Oshi no Ko. I don't know how much shorter they were supposed to be, but Aka implied that part of the problems with finishing was due to the editors begging him to write more than he planned. |

Orginal character design might be handled by Gege.As far as I understand, the manga will be illustrated by a different person this time.
| @GoodBoy0069 The general concept is possible, but not completely, otherwise he could draw it himself. |
|
| Iwasaki seems to like drawing manga with yapping characters in it, if Togashi allowed it he should collab wit him next, lmao. |

| I'm curious as to what this story will even be about. I think Gege said that he doesn't want to do another battle shōnen, so my guess is that this will be more of a mystery / psychological manga? Anyways, I'm super hyped. Gege is a good writer when he has time to think, and I feel like having a short serialization will bring that out. |
| finally the editors understood that akutami can't draw, now they will see he can't write |

| @Blue_Maroon The anime made the manga so popular like Kimetsu no Yaiba, both of the manga's are trainwreck. |

| @Catalano I love this sub-genre of agenda posts. Anyway I'm not touching this one until a couple of months into the run at least. The fumbling of JJK was legendary, if I hadn't experienced Game of Thrones it would have been the worst fumble I've experienced from a pretty good story. |

| @Icebreaker93 I haven't read the mangas, but just going off the shows, jjk has had much better writing than Demon Slayer so far. I've always felt jjk has been on the better side for shounen writing especially regarding characters and power systems. Maybe the "trainwreck" part is referring to the endings which I have not seen yet. |
Honestly? I’m just glad Gege’s not chained to another 300-chapter battle shonen grind. Man was clearly cooked by the end of JJK. Short run + a dedicated artist sounds way healthier. If it bangs, cool. If not, whatever. And yeah let’s not lie, Gege’s gonna drop at least one unhinged waifu, that’s just guaranteed at this point lol  |

| Gege Akutami threatens to make a new manga. |
| Always makes me wonder if what they have upcoming is going to be relating to some of their previous work sprinkled in. |
 |
| gege isn't drawing, so it'll already look way better. but gege at the pen again is the worrying bit. |
 |
| The plot really resembles Dan Dan Dan. Is this a coincidence? 🤔 |
| I am become death, the destroyer of worlds |
| The way this revived JJK Twitter, LOL. I'm here for it. |
