That's nice but it would have been nice to get an epilogue chapter.


I would also really enjoy PCP as an anime/manga.

Great, I hope it's about them doing nothing.

Seriously, where's the story *before* they met? I'd rather have a "where are they now?" epilogue featuring all the characters or something.

I'd like to see the movie, it's the type of manga that translates to live action well (maybe better than it did to anime). Doubt it'll ever be available stateside legally, though.

I concur, an epilogue would be better. But I like Bakuman so much I'll take what I can get!

Also I'd love to read some PCP.

My hopes are that with Obata abd Ohba getting back together we can have another manga in the future. They are without a doubt my favorite manga team in the industry.

Yeah, don't really get the point of a prequel, an epilogue would've been much better. It's not like their pasts are much of a mistery, what's the chapter going to be about? Shujin brooding because his mother has huge expectations of him and Saiko brooding because he likes Miho? I really can't think there's much story to be told there, tbh.

When I read the title I thought it might be about Saiko's uncle.... but I guess not? I'm with the others here, what is there to tell?

A live action movie would be rushed so I doubt it would be one of those type of movies but it should still be good since it's a great type of manga that caneasily be adapted to anything.
