With this news that Neverland entered it's final arc, I wonder if Shirai and Pozuka have some deal with Shueisha to work in a new series after Neverland ends with a new story already planned like Toriyama had with Dr Slump going to Dragon Ball

 

[De La Croissant]

Calm down, people. It's the final arc, not the final week. It can take years.

Posuka, always consistent.

I did remember Beelzebub but my post was more about wanting a delinquent manga with gag elements, not a gag manga with delinquent elements. Besides, the action was never Beelzebub's main draw in my opinion.

I just really like the manga delinquent aesthetic (for lack of a better term), with the whole apparel style, "strongest in the school", KORRAAAAA, etc. I blame Worst for this, and ever since then I haven't found a delinquent manga that really hit that same note. I've tried Sugarless and A-BOUT!, but those are not as good nor have they had any recent releases. I was hoping that a shounen delinquent manga would be pretty cool but I've never really seen it done before so I'm also wary. I just want a Kubo delinquent manga dammit, stop teasing me.

I realize this went sorta off topic, but just wanted to explain a bit of my frustration.

Have you read Crows? Highly recommend.

I was just about to say read Crows

 

[shoyoboyo]

I was thinking of reading it a few years ago because I knew it was connected to Worst in some way, but I never got around to it because I was without home internet connection for months. Maybe I'll get around to it sometime but I have such a huge backlog of manga from the summer that I don't know if it will be any time soon.

also, gag manga with delinquents elements can scratch that delinquents-itch

Angel Densetsu is GOAT

while we're talking about gag delinquent manga, Rokudou no Onna-tachi is a really fun and pretty unique one.

WSJ trends over the decades:
80's = bodybuilding
90's = delinquent
00's = ?
10's = ?

this, some people on the world wide web are acting like its ending in like a volume or two, even going as far as claiming they need to quickly get caught up before it ends...

WSJ trends over the decades:

90's = delinquent
00's = ?
10's = ?

it's not WSJ trends, it's manga in general trends
80's =manly men doing manly things Jojo, HnK, Sakigake! (this was started by Arnold Schwarzenegger's and others 80s action stars films)
90's =tournaments arcs SD, DB, YYH (this was started by these 3 manga)
00's =royal roads Naruto, YugiOh, Reborn, you can put OP here since it started in 1997 (this is the affect of DBZ ending)
10's = exorcists and horror Neverland, Kimetsu, Jujutsu (this is the effect of Attack on Titan giant success)

Not WSJ but to add on 10s Blue Excorcist, Twin Star Excorcist

I wouldn't really put the royal roads as a manga trend as those are universal. Sure they may be dying down now but you do get huge successes like Heroaca and smaller successes like Black Clover which are royal road series to a T.
