This is going to be a quick short review because this is from my phone at work which is about to die.

~SPOILERS~

The last three chapters of the series and by three chapters I mean chapter 19 to 25 seemed extremely rushed and there's a bunch missing like the final shot killing the gaster level 5, all that stuff is missing.

This story left me... kinda empty.

I watched the anime a few years before I decided to read the manga, since the anime never came back.
