@NC Well Hiro used to work for Shueisha, but got sick of their BS, and how strict they were, so he moved to Kodansha. Same with Hajime Isayama.

@Nick I'm certainly not painting Kubo as completely innocent, but he is getting fucked over regardless. I don't care if Shueisha think Kubo is the biggest asshole and pita to work with, you can't discriminate, bully and let personal agendas affect how you operate as a business. No business should treat their employees like this. And I highly doubt Kubo would just quit to say fuck you to jump. Kubo really appreciates and respects his fans and would never screw them over like that (he used to be active on twitter and interact with fans and everything). He also knows he's a role model to kids, and he wouldn't wanna send the wrong message. I think it's more likely jump are pushing him out, rather than him quitting. He has a contract, so he just can't leave whenever he wants.
