| Even though I'd have liked to see the wedding, I think this was actually better. We got the wedding as a cover so I'm good<3 The ending was rly so cute! Just like 10 years ago, it was finished where their dream began C: Even though I was kinda bored with some of the arcs with Bakuman (especially that "villain" *rolls eyes* How many times did he return? >.>) but I feel sad it actually ended :< Well it was good though! *thumbs up* |

| It's a good ending, but could have been better. I will miss Bakuman Can't wait to read the next piece of Ohba and Obata sensei. Hope it will be as amazing as death note and Bakuman |
| Good ending to the series, hope there is some epilogue ^^ |

The last chapter was what we could predict... glad that there wasn't anything anoying in it... well chapter of bakuman every week will be Missed. |
| Strange ending. Most of the characters didn't appear. And after so much talk about wedding, we didn't actually see it. Just proposal or sort of. |
| Where were you, when everything was falling apart? |
| A little anti-climatic, but I guess it works. ..what to read now? |
 |
| I really wanted to see the wedding!! But it's ok, a beauty ending. I suppose there will be an epilogue chapter to complete the 20th volume. Maybe the wedding or a "2 years later" chapter. |
 |
| Nice ending. but i want more after story. woonie said: I hope there would be a special epilogue chapter. pretty much this. |

| good chapter. can't say more. i'll miss this series |
  |
| I thought the last chapter would be longer as it did feel a little too short but enjoyed the series. |

| It feels a bit anticlimactic, but its got the same "awwwww" feeling that I got from the first chapter :). Great series, hoping for an epilogue as well. |
| I was looking forward to a more Grand ending finale for the series ... but it was okay despite the ending being quite short. |

Hawaiian420 said: It was bitter sweet to me, it was bitter cause I really wanted to see a wedding and more of the other characters. Don't have to go all rage mode on me, dam dude, chill out. Bittersweet ending - An ending that contains a mix of sadness and happiness. There wasn't anything sad in this ending, man. Don't make stupid definitions. It was just anticlimatic Ferrari end. |
|
| Good end. :') |
| Well the ending was OK but coulda been much better. 3/5 for the ending and 9/10 overall. I'm glad they didnt drag this manga till no end like most of the shounens and ended it on a high note. |
 |
| ...that's it? Disappointing end is disappointing. 2/5, 8/10 for the manga. |
| No wedding on scene. You'll never see Akito as best man and Kaya as bridesmaid. You'll never see Ashirogi Muto's children. You'll never see anymore of Eiji. Fukuda will never be happy. You'll never see Hiramaru and Aoki marry either. This ending is as disappointing as the Mass Effect 3 one, only instead of having three colors to pick we have only two: black and white. |

I feel like chapter 175-176 were both rushed as heck. |
| Ending was a bit underwhelming, an epilogue might be helpful. Been following this manga since day one, not because I knew it was a new Ohba/Obata's work. There were many ups and downs but generally it's been a nice ride. |
| First impression... WHY DID IT HAVE TO END ALREADY?!? though the ending was wonderful i'd like to see the wedding and after the wedding -___- GREAT MANGA!! DIFFERENT FROM OTHER MANGAS!!! BAKUMAN FTW!!! |
| I can't believe it just ended. It didn't feel like one when I opened the chapter. I was totally expecting more chapters for the wedding, the reactions of people, more hardships. They really gave us another surprise in the end. Oh well, it was a great chapter. Overall, Bakuman was a manga that made me look forward to it each week. It was a great ride. If only they made my OTP canon it would have been perfect to my eyes. /endrant. |
| So... that's it? I have to agree with those who call it a rushed ending. It was almost as if the manga was cancelled and the two mangakas were told that they have to finish Bakuman this week. I wouldn't have anything against this chapter if it was the penultimate chapter, but for a final chapter it was too sudden. It would have been nice to have another chapter for an epilogue. |
| You know, there's a fairly high chance they'll release a one shot with the wedding. In any case, I thought it was a fine ending, and I've quite enjoyed reading this series. 9/10. |
| This felt kinda... I don't know. I still can't get into my head that it's the last chapter. Not because I wouldn't want it to end but because it DOESN'T feel like the last chapter. NO other charatcers but Mashiro and Miho got an ending. We don't know what will happen to them. We don't know if Ashirogi Muto will make another succesful manga. Heck we don't even know if Mashiro and Miho got safely back or crashed on the way!! O.o I seriously hope this is will get lots of bad reactions that the authors will be forced to make a REAL ending chapter. Possibly a look into the future, that would be ideal imo.

I agree with you but I think it's certain that it wasn't cancelled since Bakuman had quite high sales and was nearly always in top 5 (many times in top 3) in Jump questionnares. Maybe the authors had enough of it and wanted to finish it as fast as possible, maybe to start on their new manga. Either way, the "ending" feels like a huge let down. |

I wouldn't have anything against this chapter if it was the penultimate chapter, but for a final chapter it was too sudden. It would have been nice to have another chapter for an epilogue. I agree. The last page was really cute and all, but it doesn't give a conclusion on the story. Mashiro and Azuki aren't even married yet, only proposed. For being the main character, we sure don't get a lot of screentime for Mashiro. Now we didn't even get to see their wedding or their life together. I would rate this chapter as a 4/10 because the pacing was forced as heck in this chapter. But we had more than a hundred good chapters, so I'll just pretend I didn't read this chapter. The previous chapter (175) was a far better point to end Bakuman than this chapter IMO. After all, either do it well, or don't do it at all. This chapter was just ... half-hearted. |
 |
| WTF?! It ended just like that? NOOOOOOO I want more Bakuman! |
 |
| I hope there'll be one epilogue chapter. |
 |
| I'M CRYING. I don't want it to be over!! T_T The ending would have been perfect if they had said more about the other characters. |
| Ahhh... That felt right.......... Only thing that should have been done is to hint a bit about the future of the other characters. How will I ever know if Hiramaru found his precious happiness like this? I love Azuki... She's perfect. How I wish there were girls like her in reality (waited 10 years for her one and only, never doubting their love, never cheating, only communicating through text messages - that's simply amazing). Well probably the same goes for Mashiro in a way, but I think that his part is possible, oh well. Great Manga. Unforgettable. Deserves more love. Bakuman, you will be missed. |
| So thats the end of that. Enjoyed reading it all. Why can't mangas end with or have a marriage scene in it, that would've been a lot better. I was kinda hoping that they continued the manga and that we saw Mashiro and Azuki's new life and how they do stuff now. |
| Garbage. Just as shitty as Reversi ending. Troll hard. |
| it ended similar to reversi, just like that going to miss this show, i dont even remember how much time has passed since i firts read this i agree it could have been a better ending, but this one suits bakuman a lot so im grateful and i hope Ohba and Obata´s next work appears fast |
| Being a fan is like having a penis. Its nice to be proud of it But don't pull it out in public and wave it in other's faces Kyurem Black. Kyurem White. Together they are Pretty Kyurem. |
| What a joke !!! They call this chapter an end ?? 5/10 for Bakuma.. |
    |
| Probably the most underwhelming manga I've read since xxxHolic. Both started off great and had excellent potential, but quickly became formulaic and predictable. |
| it was a nice and very sweet ending for Saiko and Miho but i think it was lacking bcoz all the other characters somewhat felt ignored ;p so... woonie said: I hope there would be a special epilogue chapter. pretty much this. |

| I really would have wanted the wedding to happen at least. And Mashiro getting Azuki's hand from her parents. But it didn't. Need to be contented with the chapter cover. And I feel that Azuki's kiss was kind of forced and not romantic... But they still managed to make their dreams come true! They made their dreams into a reality. An epilogue chapter will help... even a timeskip chapter, I would love it. It said on the news that Bakuman will officially end at April 23... There is probably a oneshot of the epilogue. Anyways, awesome series. I know this might be close to impossible, but I wish they make some bonus volumes about the one shots (I mean the whole story of one shots.) that are published in Bakuman. Got 10 volumes of the english version so far... cannot wait for the release of the next 10 volumes I don't have in english yet. I will miss this series badly. *suffering from withdrawals. |

| and a great manga ends at the same place where their promise took shape. Now they will always stay by each other's side and never have a conversation just sit by each other. ^_^ anyways Y U NO MAKE EPILOGUE, SENSEI??? |
 |
| and thus it ends was hoping to see a bit more of what happens after the proposal, but i guess its good how it ended. |
