Deadpool manga is suddenly suspended

Chapter 20 of the manga "Deadpool: Samurai", written by Sanshiro Kasama and illustrated by Hikaru Uesugi, announced that the series will enter an indefinite hiatus due to "various circumstances". Although a date for its return has not been specified, the Shonen Jump Plus service reported that updates on the status of the manga will be made through its social networks.

Kasama offered an apology via his Twitter account, but was ambiguous about the reasons behind the hiatus, sparking even more speculation among fans. The announcement was accompanied by a color page from chapter 20 that parodies the cover of the first volume of "The Quintessential Quintuplets" by Negi Haruba. In recent chapters, the manga has also made references and parodies to Gosho Aoyama's "Detective Conan" and Yusuke Saito and Jirou Takidaira's "Mochimochi no Ki."

The pause has left many fans speculating about the real reasons behind the decision. While some fans believe that it may be due to creative or editorial problems, others think that it is simply a way to buy time. One of the most viral comments on social networks expresses: "It no longer has a future, they are just closing it in an elegant way". Others have pointed out that too many parodies and references to other manga might have exhausted the original ideas of the work: "The manga relies too much on parodies. It's entertaining, but it feels forced."

One of the most discussed elements has been the use of the "fourth wall", a characteristic resource of Deadpool. While some find it outdated and unoriginal, others defend it as an essential part of the character. Comments like "Breaking the fourth wall is already so old-fashioned. What year do you think it is?" reflect the growing dissatisfaction among certain readers. On the other hand, some die-hard fans of the character believe that style is part of the show's charm: "It's a Deadpool manga, it's supposed to be that way. Those who criticize are not the target audience."

The series has been plagued by surprising moments since its relaunch in August, when the manga, originally billed as a romantic comedy titled Secret Steward, revealed in its first chapter that it was actually the second season of "Deadpool: Samurai." This turn was enthusiastically received at the time, but the continuity of the project is now in doubt.
