  • Act-Age. Yes, you should read it.
    Every once in awhile I'll stumble upon a manga that'll keep me up at night, reading chapter after chapter even though my back hurt from this shi**y chair that I have. Anyway, Act Age, potentially the new big title of Shonen Jump in 2020, is certainly a special treat that bursts with emotion. No one reads descriptions anymore, but here's everything I love about it so far.

    This part should be ignored for your own safety.
    Act Age is about Kei Yonagi getting into the acting industry. Great manga, one of Weekly Shonen Jump's best, in 2020 of course, that'll probably get an anime adaptation (nevermind, the manga might actually get cancelled, what the f-). But you should still read it, you don't want to miss this. The art alone is worth the read. Made by Shiro Usazaki, a great artist, support her. Tatsuya Matsuki's writing is very good but he's not a very good person. So, yeah, here's my review, you can also call it analysis, hello and bye.

      I feel you. The video was made before and scheduled. I thought that with the, almost confirmed anime adaptation, the manga will get more attention and people will get into it. But, well...now it's just awkward.

    I'm so glad I never read this series up until now.
    1. I wouldn't be as heartbroken as all the other fans who have been reading it for a while
    2. I don't have to wait for so many chapters.
    but now I'm sad asf. I hate that I loved this series. I just wish the author never did that.. just why! It was so good. And the art.. oh my god it's amazing.
    this whole series was amazing and I feel bad for every single person who was a big fan of this series.

    The Night of the Galactic Railroad is my favorite arc, Usazaki absolutely killed the panels there, and she's only TWENTY-TWO YEARS OLD, unreal. Act-Age's (Act-a-due) story is so grounded to real life but also feels like a roller coaster from the stars above.

      It's really a shame because it was indeed a great manga, but I don't think Shonen Jump will allow its serialization anymore.
      Best case scenario, the manga goes on hiatus. Maybe it'll come back a couple of years later with a different artist and in a different magazine.

      Not the best timing :) or not the timing I wanted. The video was uploaded a few days ago and scheduled for today. I heard the news this morning, and it really sucks. I was looking forward to an anime adaptation, but it seems like the manga is, more or less, cancelled.

    Even if they could continue the series without the writer (which I don't think they can, he co-owns the IP), it wouldn't be the same without him.
    A similar situation happened with the Asterix comics. The writer passed away and the artist tried to continue his legacy but most fans would agree his solo Asterix volumes were nowhere near as good. And breaks between volumes became longer and longer. At one point fans had to wait 5 years for a new volume. TWICE. IN A ROW. Yeah, only two new comics over the course of a decade.

    • @SylvanesW

      Yup, I agree. I'm not even sure if the illustrator would want to continue if she had the chance, considering the situation.

      Hey, thank you :) I really appreciate your support. I have been reading quite a lot of manga recently, mainly for an upcoming video but also searching for a series to pick up. I would like to try to review a manga weekly.
      I am actually reading Rent-A-Girlfriend, 60 chapters in, and I was really looking forward to making a video on it at the beginning, but the more I read the more I feel like I'm not digging it anymore. It frustrates me that when everything moves one step forward it almost immediately goes two steps backwards. So, I'm in doubts about Rent-A-Girlfriend at the moment. I'll keep reading though :))

      I think it's yet to be officially confirmed. Knowing a bit of the Japanese law, most of the times, they will arrest anyone until proven innocent. But from what I've read, it seems like the author admitted it. So...there's that :(
