Give a try to Nana to Kaoru

As far as I recall the anime stopped at volume 14 of Darkness and there are 18 in total so yeah, that by itself is a bit weird because there wasn't much left to cover. I guess they felt it wasn't worth the effort to continue after the manga finished publishing but still

One theory I have heard sometimes is that since Yabuki is now also a father, that might be a reason for him to be a bit hesitant to draw borderline porn anymore whilst at the same time having a child hanging over your shoulder looking up to what he is doing all the time. Don't know how much truth there is to that idea but I could understand the reasoning at least

Yeah I don't know all the details about the situation regarding what exactly he could and couldn't do with Haruna. Just the general gist of it

It always triggered me that he went off to doing the manga for FranXX, partially because I didn't like the anime anyway but more so because as long as he's doing that, he's most certainly not continuing TLR. I do remember seeing hints since Darkness ended every once in a while that Yabuki may want to return to the franchise eventually but there was never any confirmation regarding in what sense. Would it be another true sequel if so or some spin-off or something else? I don't know. Either way I'd take any of those options over FranXX but considering that Darkness' ending is undoubtedly its most unsatisfying part (since it's all still very open-ended), I definitely think it needs a continuation still. Not so much because I love the series but more so just because the story deserves a more conclusive ending than what it currently has

There's a lot more to it than that but yeah that is a quite well known story. Basically Yabuki's ex-wife turned out to be a bit of a bitch and cheated on him which later led to their divorce. This happened already back when the original TLR was publishing and is widely believed to be the main reason for why that manga somewhat spontaneously ended in the first place. Yabuki then had to take some time to recover his personal life before resuming TLR, this time as Darkness a year or two later

On top of that, Haruna was based on his ex-wife as a character from the start, and now with them being divorced, she didn't want him to utilize Haruna in the same way anymore because in her eyes it was basically the same as sexualizing herself. And so she actually sued him over the legal rights to Haruna's character in court and won. I don't know exactly what the details of the resolution was but basically Yabuki was no longer able to do whatever he wanted with Haruna's character in Darkness' story. So presumably because of that he had to have a rethink and change the direction and focus of the plot and characters for this part of the manga, as well as reduce Haruna's role in it quite a bit. Unfortunately this is one of the biggest problems with Darkness: while it is statistically true that Haruna is probably the most disliked heroine of the whole series (at least in the west), it is still already canonically established since the beginning that Rito has been in love with her since a young age and that is not something Yabuki could simply retcon at this stage without breaking the legitimacy of the story. And so thus we found ourselves in the situation where Yabuki could no longer use Haruna as a main character for legal reasons and he also can't simply ignore her for backstory reasons, so she inadvertently thus ends up doing quite a bit of cockblocking throughout the manga simply because her mere existence makes it harder for Rito to be wanting to progress romatically with anyone else
