Kagurabachi Ch.124: Japanese fans on Shiba stealing the show and the betrayal — "called it, I knew this guy was a traitor"
On Kagurabachi Chapter 124, Japanese readers agreed Shiba completely runs away with the flashback arc and the betrayal finally drops. The thread praised how the pace jumps the moment Shiba appears, swooned over his "I'll take responsibility" line, joked about him casually one-handing a 40kg crate, and weighed up Hiroto, Hayami, and the Sushi Chef. By the end someone is already smug that they saw the traitor coming.

Kagurabachi Goes on Long Hiatus: Japanese Fans React — "Please Don't Let Them Crush You… Rest Well."
Kagurabachi, one of Weekly Shonen Jump's biggest current hits, just announced a long hiatus — and the top Japanese reactions weren't "noooo, my manga." The very first instinct was protective: "Please don't let them crush you," "take your time," "rest as long as you need." From there the thread turned into something English fans rarely see — an unusually literate discussion of weekly serialization as a brutal labor system. The recurring themes: roll calls of authors who burned out before (Hunter x Hunter, World Trigger, Jujutsu Kaisen's rushed late hiatuses), detailed proposals to shift Jump to a biweekly schedule, anger that a weekly author was sent on an overseas trip at all, and — strikingly — praise for the editor who FORCED the rest as "finally doing their actual job." Underneath it all, the bittersweet timing (a hiatus right as the anime hype builds) and one wry, very Japanese verdict on weekly serialization as Osamu Tezuka's lasting curse.
