Thats definitely a kinder way of looking at thinks, sometimes they do! SWOT being your first cancelled series is pretty wild, I'm surprised by just how many people have actually read it!
Based on your description, the protagonist's personality sounds like "what if they took Bakugo and had him *not develop at all* from chapter 1, and made him the main character?"
Honestly the biggest thing ive taken from this video is that Zan looks pretty cool and i might give its 18 chapters a try. That guy who animated 3 openings and 4 endings for something that could probably be adapted into a 12 episode season max is impressively dedicated.
@@jordanforbes149 Idk really, haven't read it yet, I just like the artsyle and it has at least one very dedicated fan, can't really say as much for Swat although I actually thought Swot was okay.
TY THIS IS THE BEST SURPRISE TO OPEN UA-cam TO AFTER THE BRUTALITY THAT WAS MY PUBLIC SPEAKING CLASS :D Your axed file series always brightens my day. I love your content :)
Swot it's a weird manga that i think about from time to time, probably because it was the first manga i followed from start to finish, and it was also the first time i noticed a total 180 in the history when they introduced super powers, years later thanks to bakuman i learned that that tone shift was probably bacauae of cancellation I'm glad someone it's talking about this manga in the current year Also i remember that after the final chapter i went on a rabbit hole trying to learn more about the mangaka just to learn that at that time at leat he hasn't had any hit yet, hope he's doing okay nowadays Thanks for unlocking a memory I finished the video oh God Well at least the man it's still around i guess
Ahaha yeahhhh he's still going although apparently the yugioh manga ended the day before I published the video. Always happy to talk about older Jump stuff!
+TrentinArt Great video. I got two suggestions for Shonen Jump Cancelled Manga. 1st would be Tokyo Shinobi Squad, a really bad manga only lasting around 20+ chapters.
Little shoutout for mentioning Earthchild. Yeah, that just did not sit right with me, with how the protagonist pretty much insisted that the whole world revolves around him and his family, a family, I might add, was brought about by him not accepting the situation to get what he wanted. He just felt like a massive spoiled brat to me. Maybe you should do an Axe File on that series!
@@TrentinArt I didn't think it was that bad. It was a good lesson about nailing your characters and concepts down beforehand. The sudden injection of more fan service at the end seemed desperate. I wish it had time to find it's feet.
@@TrentinArt On the other side of the shonen gag manga coin there is Agravity boys which i personally loved and had an interesting story with how it got an epilogue in a different manga. Would definitely be a good one to cover
@@woodyd167 Agravity boys is a shoe in at some point one of the weirdest and funniest gag series jumps had imo! I know a lot of people who love it too!
@@TrentinArtdespite lasting 50 chapters. It didn’t need to last as long as it did. It was a gag manga, it was funny and despite being Sci-Fi they were what they were doing and made the funniest space manga on the planet. Am I bummed out it never had an anime? Yes, but it didn’t need one. Most gag mangas don’t need a serious story. They are there for laugher and I am glad it existed 😅
I...actually like the idea for Swot, and I don't mind the Mc😅If I could survive something like Death Note, Chainsaw Man, or genuinely like Fire punch. I can give this a shot.
In retrospect, RalGrad was my worst jump manga. I still ha e the bolumes and i will reread it eventually, but boy it sticks out. Do hope you cover Psyren and Gengaku Pucasso eventually.
Interesting, I've heard a few people mention Ral Grad being bad, it might end up getting voted for as an axe file soon-ish! Psyren is a little large and I think veers out of the scope of these smaller shorter videos but I'll never say never! It could be a cool incentive or milestone for this little series. And sadly Genkaku Picasso is a Jump SQ manga meaning it doesnt quite fit what I had in mind with these, though I have been meaning to read it and am an artist so theres potentially of me talking about it one day~!
For me it's currently nue's exorcist the story feels so bland and dry being shoved with whatever it is shounen or light novel harem cliche and trope it can get it's hand on, It's like bleach but reduced to light novel harem fan service stuff. I don't get it why it doesn't get axed yet.
Yeahhh Nue is rough, i'd hesitate to say it's the worst though, it's kind of its own brand of bland slop, sadly i cant make a video on it since it's not axed haha
It did yeah! A death game in Jump was a really interesting premise but it got pretty shaky as it went on unfortunately, still an interesting read and I brought it up in my jump horror video!
Who approved of this manga? The MC's motivation is played off as a gag? Who writes like that? Why UFO? Why Aliens? Why none of this matters in the end? All in all I agree that it should not have being serialized in the first place. But I have something good to say - I find female delinquent that wants to stop being this way, to be a novel concept that would've been nice to see being picked up by other authors. And the manga about a guy destroying women's clothes could've worked if done really accurately.
Yeah its a grabbbag of missteps, definitely one of the worst Jump manga ive read. I think the last one could be a fun echii manga potentially if the context surrounding it was different and less misogynistic
I feel like it could have been more interesting if instead of having any shonen power system to just focus on the fact that the main guy is studying for this big dream he has, and maybe that drive inspires others to study to pursue their dreams. Idk Im spitballin' here.
Probbably? I feel like that would require and entire re-write of the MC (Which would have made it much better)! Theres possibility for a good manga in SWOT somewhere with a lot of tweaking haha
I know its not jump but would you consider doing an axefiles on the series 01 by Oku Hiroya of Gantz and Inuyashiki fame. Its shockingly bad in some ways but alos highlights some of his skills that hed later develop later on Also all the battles feel like Dragon Ball Ripoffs
honestly 01 and maybe GUN DRAGON Σ by Buichi Terisawa could be fun to talk about in a video on weird non-traditionally drawn manga so i won't say never!
@@TrentinArtYeah he wasn't especially deep or interesting if I'm being honest. He's kinda like a Disgaea protagonist with far less redeeming qualities and character depth, I like delinquent manga a lot so I'm probably a bit bias lol.
Idk, Hungry Mary always seemed like the worst Shonen Jump manga to me, crapy art, bad layout, a comedy manga that’s not funny, and a plot that just rips off a classic (Ranma1/2), checks all the boxes for me at least.
Hungry Marie isnt great and is pretty weird but I can at least take some enjoyment in it's absurdity. I dont think it's ryuhei tamuras best art either but its not crapy at all ... also not all gender bending/swap stories rip of Ranma XD
Ah, the first cancelled Jump manga I ever read. I always thought Shonen Jump made "miniseries" and thats why they were so short😂.
Thats definitely a kinder way of looking at thinks, sometimes they do! SWOT being your first cancelled series is pretty wild, I'm surprised by just how many people have actually read it!
Based on your description, the protagonist's personality sounds like "what if they took Bakugo and had him *not develop at all* from chapter 1, and made him the main character?"
Kinda but way worse imo 😅
Dude you jinxed it. Now you definetly will have to talk about Sporting Salt at one point
Ahaha well maybe someday, it is an axed manga afterall!
Honestly the biggest thing ive taken from this video is that Zan looks pretty cool and i might give its 18 chapters a try. That guy who animated 3 openings and 4 endings for something that could probably be adapted into a 12 episode season max is impressively dedicated.
Yeahhh thats probbably what id most look forward to covering if/when I get around to Zan very dedicated fan! I think they made an rpg maker game too
@@TrentinArt Hey I love RPG maker games, something else to do if I actually like it I guess
Zan is even worse than SWOT
@@jordanforbes149 Idk really, haven't read it yet, I just like the artsyle and it has at least one very dedicated fan, can't really say as much for Swat although I actually thought Swot was okay.
TY THIS IS THE BEST SURPRISE TO OPEN UA-cam TO AFTER THE BRUTALITY THAT WAS MY PUBLIC SPEAKING CLASS :D
Your axed file series always brightens my day. I love your content :)
Awwww great glad I could help after your class, thats really sweet!
11:57 Dude straight up wrote a power fantasy for r/incels lmao.
I know right!!!!
As I said in your Discord, the only thing I could add to this discussion are swear words directed at the mangaka...
I’ve always wondered what other Jump series got the boot super early, so this was a nice watch! Looking forward to the next video.👍
Thank you!! More to come!
Could we one day get an Axe file on Zipman?
Definitely on the table!
Swot it's a weird manga that i think about from time to time, probably because it was the first manga i followed from start to finish, and it was also the first time i noticed a total 180 in the history when they introduced super powers, years later thanks to bakuman i learned that that tone shift was probably bacauae of cancellation
I'm glad someone it's talking about this manga in the current year
Also i remember that after the final chapter i went on a rabbit hole trying to learn more about the mangaka just to learn that at that time at leat he hasn't had any hit yet, hope he's doing okay nowadays
Thanks for unlocking a memory
I finished the video oh God
Well at least the man it's still around i guess
Ahaha yeahhhh he's still going although apparently the yugioh manga ended the day before I published the video. Always happy to talk about older Jump stuff!
Really flattered to be mentioned in your video ❤
No Problem!!
Build king is the real king of the worst manga ever published
It's not great but there's definitely worse Imo!
Really? I thought it was okay.
The worst I’ve read is Our Blood Oath
1:22 no way Gintama ripped off the Kagubarachi pose 😭
+TrentinArt Great video. I got two suggestions for Shonen Jump Cancelled Manga. 1st would be Tokyo Shinobi Squad, a really bad manga only lasting around 20+ chapters.
Tokyo Shinobi Squad isn't thaaaat bad imo but it's on the table
I'd love to see you tackle Takamagahara and Stealth Symphony someday. I wanna see how far we can lower the bar lmao.
Takamagahara and Stealth Symphony are interesting picks, personally I think SWOT is much lower on the ladder than those two though haha
Could you make an axe file on that Sporting Salt thingey?
AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH (Maybe one day)
Little shoutout for mentioning Earthchild.

Earthchilds a prime candidate for one tbh! Many people have asked too so I'll definitely do one at some point!
4:23 Isn't that what Sparks from Fabricant 100 pretty much were?
Earthchild is really something esle
Yeah, I've never seen a series fall off from a great first chapter so hard.
Yuuup thats going to be a fun one to talk about!
I wonder if you ever plan on doing the actual worst axed manga in jump.
The infamous U19.
U19 is definitely getting one it's a very important Axe manga 🤣
5:58 - 6:03 💀💀💀💀💀💀💀😭 im dying
Nice to see someone else remembers SWOT.
Yeahhh I remember a lot of Jump manga haha
@@TrentinArt I didn't think it was that bad. It was a good lesson about nailing your characters and concepts down beforehand. The sudden injection of more fan service at the end seemed desperate. I wish it had time to find it's feet.
should talk about shugomaru next one of my least favorite recent jump mangas and came out around ayashimon which deserved so much better
At some point I might get around to doing a Shugomaru video, i'd feel a bit bad for dunking on it though
@@TrentinArt On the other side of the shonen gag manga coin there is Agravity boys which i personally loved and had an interesting story with how it got an epilogue in a different manga. Would definitely be a good one to cover

But those are all great manga 😅 ... idk maybe it'll be your thing but 90% of people seem to think it's especially bad
@@TrentinArt You're right. The themes and mood and tone were done near perfect.
As someone who hasn't read Swot yet...Its not what I think, huh?😭
I’m shocked Zan has a fan animation. I guess Japan loves it. Just not enough to keep it alive 😂

Yeahhh Nue is rough, i'd hesitate to say it's the worst though, it's kind of its own brand of bland slop, sadly i cant make a video on it since it's not axed haha
I'm gonna need a source on that movie/show.
Naked Gun! Really funny comedy film, that was the clip about the bribe. There's also footage of the X Files in there too
@@TrentinArt Thanks
Manga like this are good examples for aspiring mangakas as to what they should not do.
Yeahhhh most likely, it was a pretty big mess
Yoooo Enigma; long time ago I read some Enigma chapters but never finished. It got cancelled? I remeber I liked the premise
It did yeah! A death game in Jump was a really interesting premise but it got pretty shaky as it went on unfortunately, still an interesting read and I brought it up in my jump horror video!
@@TrentinArt gonna 'jump' on that vid now. Keep it up with the good work!

But is anyone else glad that Ruridragon is back
Absolutely psyched!
@@TrentinArt I hope it doesn't go under the almighty axe of jump
@@laxelford3533it’s moving to Jump+ so it won’t be like last time when the creator got sick for a whole year

@@TrentinArt Neat
I enjoyed Zan as a "so bad it baffling hilarious". Haven't read this but it really sounds like its not as hilariously awful as his previous work
Wait hold up that 2nd to last manga about the clothes blowey up thing.
It sounds like it had promise
Idk.... it sounds super rough
@@TrentinArtgiven its not translated we can’t know if it’s bad or not
@@NitwitsWorld ... Based on the premise and how sexist it is I can comfortably say it's pretty bad
@@TrentinArt sadly with most manga
Jesus Christ, this dude needs to put the pen down💀
Me or the SWOT MC XD?
@@TrentinArt The mangaka 😂💀
Bloody hell, i want it to read it for fun and, bro, i'm only at The chapter 11 and ive been three day reading it.
What a piece of trash
I liked Swot haha, i think the main character was cool. But to be fair it did have a lot of issues.
Glad you could like it! He's definitely one of my least favourite in recent memory though
@@TrentinArtYeah he wasn't especially deep or interesting if I'm being honest. He's kinda like a Disgaea protagonist with far less redeeming qualities and character depth, I like delinquent manga a lot so I'm probably a bit bias lol.
SWOT wasn't good but gotta admit... Muttsuri sure showed me it could still get worse!
Yeahhh.... Like the bar was so low but somehow they got under it
What's sporting salt???
Another not so great axed Shonen Jump manga about this guy who makes inventions to help athletes? Iirc
This was funnier than it had any right to be.
Yeahhh i kinda went a bit loosey goosey with it since the manga was poopy hahaha I guess it paid off
@@TrentinArt Cactus's pain made manifest.
Next: Demon's Plan and Red Sprite
Oh nooo not Demons Plan XD (maybe one day)
Great video, man 👍 And now I understand why the series is s***.
Thanks Gabe! Yeah its really not great haha
Higuma hellwarden will be interesting
One of the first axed manga I read Weekly!
Sport and salt sport and salt 😂
Begoneee sporting salt
@@TrentinArt haha sorry couldn’t resist lol
To be honest I really like the premise, smart guy must fight to study is interesting.
But character and execution really dissapointing.
A lot of premises can be interesting but this fumbles the bag so quickly 😅
@@TrentinArt tru 🥲
You see this is sort of manga you write when you are clearly trying too hard to be hip and down with the kids. And you don't understand any of it.
It definitely has "How do you do fellow kids" vibes ... or just teen writer vibes in general
@@TrentinArt It really does resemble something I would write..... whilst going through puberty.
Idk, Hungry Mary always seemed like the worst Shonen Jump manga to me, crapy art, bad layout, a comedy manga that’s not funny, and a plot that just rips off a classic (Ranma1/2), checks all the boxes for me at least.

To me, the worst Shonen Jump manga is Witch Watch.
Damn... I can see people not vibing with WW's comedy but the worst wsj manga? Definitely doesn't deserve that title
Swot Suck So Successfully
Absolutely!!!!!
