For TPGW, I mean I'm personally not going to fully judge the flaws of the series yet till I see how the story develops outside of this last chapter. I don't really see that many flaws yet that can be used to critique the series while the plot hasn't had the chance to go beyond it yet. Which it probably will in this next chapter.
Btw, this is wrong. Ghostwriting as a concept has nothing to do with plagiarism. A ghostwriter can plagiarize like a normal writer, but it is not an inherent part of being a ghostwriter.
If I'm not wrong, ghostwriting, as in ghostproducing when it comes to music, is when someone makes some work and gives it to you so you publish it as your own behind an agreement with the original creator. That way, you get the credit of a work of some other author, but with no plagiarism involved.

This is more accurate. Someone else does the work and you take credit with no mention of this other writer in the background. For this manga, Ghostwriter implies the mangaka from the future providing the material and her version in present time giving the approval to keep going. Ghostwriter is technically correct for this manga.
I mean, the whole point of the story is for that moment to come. When it needs to. Honestly, demanding right now for the characters to do what you as a reader want is just wanting to push the story in the direction you want, instead of being expectant about what the mangaka does show in this story. All of these complaints just seem pure egoism of readers wanting for developments to happen however they want. How is that supposed to be writing a story if you had to stick to whatever people tells you to do?
Yeah, within the story it is plagiarism. But the title doesn't have plagiarism baked into it like Rain claimed, because Ghostwriting is not inherently plagiarism. You pay someone to write something original for you while agreeing that it will be published under your name instead of their name. That ain't plagiarism. It is also not what the manga is currently about, but that wasn't the point here ^^
Give it time? I'm sure if the series survives, there will be a moment when the female writer realizes what the truth is and confronts him about it. If anything, I'm fairly sure that this confrontation is a given at this point.
I'm talking about team paradox, you forget a detail.
