Mixed Feelings
Preliminary (268/279 chp)
I'm not going to hone in on specific characteristics of the manga like characters/plot/art/etc because there's plenty of that in other reviews here already, but I'm dropping this review as a WARNING to anyone who wants to pick up this manga these days,

DROP THIS MANGA AFTER CHAPTER 194!

It's very obvious that the manga wasn't planned to go for this long and is being stretched out bc it sells like hotcakes. The story in chapter 194 reaches a sort of natural endpoint, coming shortly after the biggest arc in the series, Tenjiku. Everything that came after has been torturous to read week after week, from something I once considered a very good shonen, 9/10, into something that gets worse and worse with each chapter and has become a complete irony read for me and my friend group with how comically bad it's gotten. It's also the type of bad that recontextualizes earlier parts of the story so that you can't enjoy it as much anymore.

If the idea of dropping a manga before seeing it through or a very bad last 70ish chapters is not appealing to you, do not bother reading this manga. If you're fine with dropping it before the end or with a bad ending, then there really is some great material to see in this manga, a delinquent shonen with great characters and good execution of emotional scenes and some hype ass fights. Was never anything too deep but man the author shit the bed with what was otherwise a really fun read.
