From previous spoilers posted (some with warnings, some without) you could figure out that their first manga would have a fairly short run. I'm actually glad they got enough in to bring out at least one volume. Now we'll get a chance to see how they develop their next (and hopefully more successful) story. Azuki is really patient--most seventeen year olds would not be willing to give a 23 year deadline for their love interest to make up their minds.
Please don't feed the trolls!

Trap ended with 35 chapters, but do you guys know that there are some manga in Jump that don't get past the 18th chapter? Yeah, compared to them Mashiro and Takagi can consider themselves lucky that Trap didn't get canned only after a few months.

Lucky? They just made a series with a certain amount of quality.

Not that would b news, though. Bakuman has said stuff like that all the time, right from the beginning.

Hiramaru is so funny, I love the face Mashiro and Takagi made when they told him IT's A TRAP! But Crow looked like it could seriously be a pretty cool anime if it were actually made into one, and the opening was awesome. I was pretty sad seeing TRAP canceled but I'm not so excited for there next work, I'm guessing it's going to be a gag manga. =/

Nice episode I can't wait to see other manga get animated and show the OP in the show. Thats gonna be cool.
Yup I agree the next arc is my least favorite since i've read the manga. Though I'm pretty sure that this arc doesn't last too long. Maybe a few episodes if they try to get through it quickly.

Many people are saying the next few eps are going to suck.. personally I thought the "i'm sick in the hospital" arc was mostly lame aside from the boycott... so I'm interested to see just how lame it's going to be (or not be)

Yeah, and I'd watch the crow anime... looks tight.

the Crow op was pretty cool, I wish in the manga they'd show cool stuff like that but it works here.

yeah, now comes Miura sucking it up. their next work is my least favorite as well.

I like seeing more of the mangaka's mangas like Trap/Crow/Otters.

When I'm watching this anime I feel like I'd hit "skip forward" button over and over again.. next week, next mounth, its like watching only the main plot. I want to know what they were doing during this time! not only jumping forward... Also would be nice if we could see some story plot of their manga chapters :/

That mail at the end, Mashiro gets motivated so easily by Azuki.

Wow Nakai was a complete dick to Aoki by trying to take over her manga, such a desperate move makes him look like an even bigger loser. Pretty sad to see TRAP get cancelled, hoping their next manga will be more successful.

Ouch, that hurt. But at least, when they'll present a new manuscript, they will already be known by their reader, so they'll have a popularity.

Hiramaru is hilarious with his glorious car :P

To people who criticisized Mashino in ep7 for risking his life: See what happens when you take a break?

And that was just after 2-3 months break. It'd be even worse if they waited until graduation. Tough I don't get why they couldn't publish what Mashiro drew in hospital earlier, maybe without break at all. I mean it was there anyway. I guess it's just magazine's fault. And what about chief editor? He knew that was gonna happen and he let it happen. And he actually made the call with no shame, even if it's his work.

If only they explained it was a genetical condition he shares with his uncle I'd agree with chief editor but there was none...

Anyway hope to see a more interesting '#1 to be' work from them.

Definitely agree with the comments wanting to see Crow and Trap as anime. In fact most of the work showed in Bakuman was worthy of seeing as anime, including Ashirogi Muto's earlier work and all the works by others that aren't mentioned.

Feels bad for TRAP and Ashirogi Muto as their efforts despite working so hard and trying the best they could to recover from the damage the popularity of the manga took while on hiatus + try to survive given the new competition the mystery manga genre had present in Jump, they just couldn't in the end. At least Mashiro got some motivation and optimism to take into the next series they try to make by getting that sweet Azuki e-mail, who is still willing to wait 20+ long years for them to be together and have their dreams come true lol.

And while Ashirogi slumped out along with Ko Aoki and Nakai with Hideout Door being cancelled too, Niizuma managed to get an anime adaptation with CROW and that opening looks and sounds sick I can't lie. Definitely would watch that if that got a real anime.

really bad going back from hospital to get lower in scores due the hiatus...
you were good ashirogi, but that's life for you.
that's end was kinda good though, miho had her own way encouraging mashiro.

CROW anime look so badass, too bad it's not real anime.

now we going to some of my least favourite arc, but very meaningfull

Well, TRAP didn't seem like it would go on forever, but I didn't expect it to fall through so quick either. It probably wouldn't have happened, at least so soon, if Moritaka hadn't been hospitalized either. So that sucks.

But, I suppose I didn't care much for TRAP either way too. Here's hoping their next series is even better. Whenever that might be. Though, with how this series is paced, it could easily be within an episode or two.

Anyway, again with the MoritakaxMiho stuff though. Having her mention wanting to be married by 40 is just exhausting. Just get married already then? I would literally prefer them eloping at 18 and just supporting one another. Their romance is really and truly terrible.
