So, the trini set explained, everyone teams up, everything solved, though the last panels leave a sense of discomfort. Well, this was one of the worst and most disappointing chapters in Reborn. What happened to the Mafia world? Why is everything so rushed? How disinteresting are Checker-face's motives and how short-lived was his duration as a villain. Absolute disappointment
I have to agree. I hate the fact that the ending is obviously rushed. Compared to the rest of the story, the last two months have been pretty terrible. My guess is that its not the author's fault...but more so her superiors at JUMP that want to bring this story to an end so she can concentrate on her next rumored work.
I became interested in this manga because of its shounen roots and the fact that it was a story that involved a "mafia world." The fact that this world was only slightly touched upon at times and the utter disappointment of how Check Face evilness turned out is just tragic. I see only 2-3 chapters left...most likely two, but this last arc is going to knock a few points of the final rating of this manga I'll give it.
