That only indicates the original source is a completed work, it means nothing regarding translation status. If you click the link from the MangaDex page to the Official Raw there's still 3 more chapters to go.

Electric Phantasm posted:

I am saying that... hmm.

Under Ninja consists of an interleaving of wacky, cartoonish plot beats (orbital space lasers, brain transplants, shadowy ninja organisations pulling society's strings, AI motorcycles) with a sort of vulgar, earthy slice of life scenes acted out by a cast of oddball deadbeats, all granted the exact same weight and importance by the framing, and presented in this subdued, realistic, almost documentarian mode. The sum effect of which, at least for me, is this weird, floaty, dislocated mood permeating everything, and the sense that I'm not so much reading a coherent narrative but rather being witness to a series of loosely connected events (even though a coherent narrative is occurring, probably). That sounds like it should be a flaw, but it isn't somehow? And so when I'm reading it my reaction to every new development is "hahahaha what" or "hahahaha okay", regardless of what it actually is. Rooftop gyaru vs ninja fistfight? Sure. Secret television channels broadcasting propaganda gorn? Cool. Flashback to ninja high school where everyone is wandering around in seifuku and ski masks? Got it.

We're getting an adaptation in October and I'm incredibly curious as to how it's going to feel in motion.

This is like , exactly my jam. Monty Python, MST3K jokes per minute, YouTube poops all give that it's funnier if you just don't-care-about-understanding-everything feeling you are describing.

And I say Monty Python when it was airing compared to other similar shows at the time ;not now.

Under Ninja reveals are great because they are so out of the blue and unexpected that it can't be spoiled

Eg. I can say NINJA ESCAPE is the best "Fuuuuck, that's what it is?!?* moment

I really love how Nanao-sensei can just draw in such a cute yet clearly terrifying way. Then you see some of the other poo poo that turns up and wonder if you stumbled into a Junji Ito manga.
