this morning I checked reddit for news and stuff, I read that Keijo!!!!!!!!!!, my favorite manga that I even followed the raw releases is getting axed because the japanese audience (shit taste audience) don't really buy the anime even though the manga is doing pretty fine and Holy shit. My mom came into my room to bring me a plate of chicken nuggets and I literally screamed at her and hit the plate of chicken nuggets out of her hand. She started yelling and swearing at me and I slammed the door on her. I’m so distressed right now I don’t know what to do. I didn’t mean to do that to my mom but I’m literally in shock from the news this morning. I feel like I’m going to explode. Why the fucking fuck is Keijo!!!!!!!!! getting axed? This can’t be happening. I’m having a fucking breakdown. I don’t want to believe the animanga industry is so shit. I want a great manga to read. I want Keijo!!!!!!!!!!!! to be top selling manga and fix this broken industry. I cannot fucking deal with this right now. It wasn’t supposed to be like this, I thought it was ranked well in Weekly Shonen Sunday magazine???? This is so fucked.

WTF MAN I'M HAVING A MENTAL BREAKDOWN RIGHT NOW

Stolen quote from reddit:

Alleged post from the author's blog (not sure if completely correct, taken from /a/):

I'm very sorry to write this but the timeline was not on my side. You see, the editor came to me last week and informed myself to increase the popularity of Keijo!!! This is not something you can do overnight. I was lost for words, as I believed we were doing fine in rankings. Today, I was informed by my editor that my manga is being removed due to the poor reception of the anime. The anime failed to make an impact, for advertising purposes, and the studio is carrying that loss because of it. It is my fault, and I am sorry. The source material should have been better and I've done a great burden. I was actually very surprised by the reception overseas. In various conversations, I was told it was greatly talked about in America. I'm glad some of you enjoyed it, but I'm sorry once again for failing. My sincerely apologies to Takahashi-san and XEBEC.

When ur so mad you even assume the gender of a manga (unless you refer to the author).

Well, at least it was enjoyable. The shitpost was nice too.

The Manga won't sell due to lack of source material... so what's the point of nagging to this kind of stuff??

It's obvious that Japan enjoyed watching gay men dancing on solid water more than cute girls fighting with their boobs and butts so.....RIP Keijo I guess.

Keijo didn't have a male self-insert so it didn't sell. Yes, Japanese otaku are the worst.

Hmm..? Really strange that a manga must end just because the anime fails. I think there are lots of manga adaptation that sells bad, but the source manga is unaffected.

Is it the real reason? Is the manga in climax and could end well, or it will end abruptly in a weird place? Maybe the author wants to end it?

It sounds lame actually. There's no author's fault in animu being shit, yet he still got his manga cancelled. Editors sure are the worst people.

You guys are weird too, some people prefer watching things they can relate to, not to fap to, if they want to fap there are tons of hentai out there.

The news you reading might be incorrect, the author simply has nothng to draw anymore and the sales has always been average. I doubt the anime has anything to do with it. Manga and anime are both seperate, so even if anime sold less, it won't lower the manga sales but increase instead. *An adaptation will only increase the manga sales any amount regardless of the anime popularity.

Well whether it was axed or not, the manga will still come to an end because the content/plot has hit the top stage(nothing more to draw). Currently(latest chapter 176) Nozomi is fighting at the last stage against the strongest Keijo player, the 5 strongest Keijo beaten and Nozomi is and will attain the strongest title, the story needs to end somewhere. There are no more stories to go beyond that because the sports are only in Japan, basically Nozomi cannot challenge the world. Again, you can say the story has hit the block.

I didn't fap to any of the Keijo stuff. It was entertaining as hell to watch and it shouldn't matter if it's a real sport since there are plenty of popular magic/superpower anime that obviously don't exist in reality but didn't stop them from being popular. There shouldn't have been an overwhelming difference in sales between YOI and Keijo

My cousin did this once. Got into an argument with his mom because of anime. He's crippled now. I guess OP is lucky because his mom is the type who brings nuggets to his room.
