Yet another victim of the machine. Super Eyepatch Wolf can be really prophetic sometimes, huh?

I don't think you need a pompous and elitist YouTuber to you tell you that this series wasn't going to last. No offense meant towards the series or the fans but it didn't reach wide enough of an audience with the demographic of the magazine, at least to my knowledge.

Also I never saw a ton of hype around the series, which usually if I see people in various communities talking about a series it usually does pretty well.

Meh, it a comedy Manga that repeats the same jokes. I feel the editors didn't want to cancel it since it lasts longer than E-Robot and Love Rush (they only got like two volumes). I still don't understand why people say Jump is a machine that destroys Manga. World Trigger still part of Jump, and it has been on hiatus for two years

Not surprised. It wasn't very good at all.

A shame. I really liked the premise, and the artist definitely has room to grow, but You can't blame them if it's not grabbing readers.

Would have been better if this and some of the other canceled Weekly Shounen Jump in the last 3 years had started out as e-manga? They could potentially have reached a wider digital audience. As far it being done weekly, that is between the writer/artist and the publisher.
