And here I thought I had found a new series to read...
:parkcry:
I get ya. I was super stoked when it started. A yakuza superpowered story by the guy that wrote Jigo. I was like that's it. And it was good. And then it just got axed lmao. You can still read those 25 chapters I guess to see.




EDIT: This was the premise

Maruo, a boy starved for battle, meets Urara, a girl trying to escape from underworld thugs... A supernatural yakuza story by Yuji Kaku, the creator of Hell's Paradise: Jigokuraku!

Years ago, the death of the infamous Enma Syndicate's chairman, who united all those below him, led to numerous individual yakuza groups being created. These groups are filled with "ayashimon"โ€”supernatural creatures possessing various powersโ€”who now lurk in the shadows of modern-day Japan.

Maruo Kaido, inspired by his favorite manga heroes, has spent the majority of his life ruthlessly training. He has become so strong that no business will hire him and no martial arts organization will accept him. But just as Maruo reaches his wit's end, he encounters a young girl named Urara, a yakuza head fleeing from an enemy group.

Though Urara tries to chase him away because of his status as a regular human being, Maruo jumps at the thought of an exciting fight. Now in the midst of a new world filled with individuals wielding powerful abilities, Maruo feels that he cannot return to his old, boring life. Thus, he decides to join Urara's yakuza groupโ€”becoming its very first member.

Do they have something like kickstarter in japan? We're in the age of the internet, why do fans have to rely on magazines?
No idea. Well to be fair most people probably read it for free on the manga plus app. Doubt these mangaka would be willing to do something like publishing their work in that way as well.
