@anon If that is the case, he could always finish it and make an official spin-off that is entirely comedy and episodic in nature, without overarching plot. Everyone would be happy with that. It's the fact that the main storyline gets prolonged that irks us since we are supposed to take it seriously and have to take the butchering of characterization and plot as legit and permanent.

@Star98 By regular action shounen manga standards these days, if this is the climax, there is usually a lengthy portion as the finale that deals with a particular plotpoint rather than dozens of subplots. Seems he has the plans for it but it will take a little longer to get there especially if he wants to add more to the already enormous cast.
