Phantom Seer is yet another Shonen Jump manga that faced an early cancellation. But for me, this manga was different. Let’s discuss the sheer amount of potential Phantom Seer had to become truly something great.

out of all the phantom seer videos i’ve seen, i think this has got to be my favorite one. im glad you took your time, did your research, and edited this beautifully. i’ll always miss phantom seer but im glad it resonated with so many other people as well. also thank you for the little shoutout xD

@Mikeyuubi 3 года назад

Thanks so much!! And thank YOU for contributing to not only the video, but to the Phantom Seer fandom too! Really appreciate it!

@yohanedescends4683 3 года назад

the staff treated it unfairly compared to other series and never gave it a fair chance. it sold very well despite no promos and low rankings yet it was axed while other series are allowed to sell poorly and even regress in sales and still continue. i feel bad for the duo and they deserved better.

@Mikeyuubi 3 года назад

Yeah I feel really bad for the two and the situation they were in, especially after working years to develop this idea for it only to be treated poorly. Hope they get a better opportunity the next time they return to the industry.

@otto_jk 6 месяцев назад

Maybe their editor was incompetent and wasn't able to sell the jump higher ups of it's quality in the axing meetings

@saudbintalib5701 3 года назад

Phantom Seer could've easily been the next Bleach in terms of success and impact if it realized more of its "hidden potential"..........

@Mikeyuubi 3 года назад

You're 100% right. It does also share very common elements with Bleach like you said. When I was talking about how certain manga have succeeded with the monster of the week structure I had Bleach in mind. The only difference is that Bleach was handling it much better since they were continuously bringing in story elements and themes that felt more important for the future.

@saudbintalib5701 3 года назад

@@Mikeyuubi I mean isn't Jujutsu Kaisen also similar to Bleach in a way heck I even have seen people compare it to Yu Yu Hakusho and Hunter X Hunter as well...........

@elmokoko1612 3 года назад

Finally! A video on my favourite urban fantasy story. I ain't gonna lie. I'm a big fan of Jujutsu Kaisen and Chainsaw Man but 20 chapters into Phantom Seer I already connected with it more than both. The episodic-like storytelling is something that also got me along with the crisp visuals the artist brought to the table.

@elmokoko1612 3 года назад

Maybe you can cover Bungou Stray Dogs as well since just like you, it's pretty underrated

@Mikeyuubi 3 года назад

@@elmokoko1612 Phantom Seer really had a lot of elements that made it special, such a shame it's gone just like that. But either way I'm glad you enjoyed it! I remember a few years ago I watched the first few episodes of Stray Dogs but I completely forgot about continuing it. I'll check it out again sometime soon!

This was my first manga that I read. So bummed that it was canceled, I loved the artwork.

@m00nsw0rd2 2 года назад

I was gonna watch this video but decided to go binge the manga first, short as it is. I ended up enjoying it quite a bit. I really liked how straightforward the setup is and how easy to understand the powers were. The art, especially the horror elements, were excellent. The design of Senju was particularly creepy. Thank you for shining a light on this series. Shame it got canceled but the Mangaka clearly has chops so maybe we’ll see another great work of theirs sooner or later. 🙏🏾

@Mikeyuubi 2 года назад

Ayee thank you for checking out the series! Definitely worth the read considering how short it is, so I'm glad you gave it a go! Shame it didn't get to develop further, but like you said hopefully the creators will return sometime soon :) Glad you enjoyed the video!

Ok so I finally read it last night and man its a shame that such an amazing series got axed. It had really good art and compelling storyline. The story was setting up nicely really unfortunate

@Mikeyuubi 2 года назад

For sure still worth a read even if it was short lived. Blue Blox has been doing incredibly well so I don't see it suffering the same fate as Phantom Seer :)

@NorthernWind_Vlll 3 года назад

Wow, this is a beautiful breakdown, I watched the first 6 minutes and I don't want to watch the rest but to read the manga, don't wamna spoil a lot... Even tho spoilers might not be important as it is ending. What a great premise! And it infuriates me so much that it got canceled. I've already read a few manga that hot canceled such as Samurai 8, Black Torch, Hungry Joker (this one was a top tier kind of story, never understood why it got canceled) and Shaman King: Flowers. If you're into that shaman premise from Phantom Seer, I must recommend Shaman King, the manga is simply, one of my favorites, the main character is downright one of my favorite characters ever, it's an amazing story you'd probably like.

@Mikeyuubi 3 года назад

Ayeee nice! Do check it out since it's a very short read, I'm sure you'll love it! I actually plan on making a video talking about Samurai 8 since you mentioned it. A lot of the videos I've seen online is people just hating on it and ripping it a part, and while I didn't enjoy Samurai 8 either, I would really like to make a proper analysis video on what went wrong with the series instead of being unprofessional about it. Would also like to check out Hungry Joker too since it's by the mangaka of Black Clover! I have also been wanting to check out Shaman King! I was waiting for the new anime to come out to give it a watch but I've heard a few mixed things regarding it, so I might just stick to reading the manga since it seems like the best experience!

@NorthernWind_Vlll 3 года назад

@@Mikeyuubi eyy that's awesome, samurai 8 was too complicated too quickly, even after a lot of chapters I still didn't get what was the premise all about. I understood a few things about the keys and swords and stuff. But nothing too deep. And yeah, Hungry Joker was super fun, I think it has a lot of potential, it had some flaws, but overall, it was so original and well composed. I liked the premise, but for a 27 chapter series, unfortunately, we know it didn't work out. And about the new sk anime, it's actually not that bad, but it's rushed, they're doing a shorter version of basically every fight/arc. And that is sometimes bad for the plot and the characters, so yes, the manga is a much better of an experience. The art on the beginning vs the end tho haha, you'll see what I mean if you give it a read. The author evolved a lot with his style.

@Mikeyuubi 3 года назад

@@NorthernWind_Vlll Hmm interesting. Guess I'll stick to reading the manga then! I watched a documentary on youtube about a year ago called "the soul of shaman king", and it takes you through the life of the author and his stories when developing Shaman King. It's really interesting and just made me want to check out the series even more! Might sound like something you'd like to check out if you haven't already!

That would be great, but like you said I highly doubt it would happen since Shonen Jump has very little faith from this series making money unfortunately

bro whyd it have to get cancelled 😪 the art looks amazong im gonna have to start reading soon even if its cancelled

Have watched Naruto and realy enjoyed it. Have been thinking about reading Samurai 8 and o-parts hunter do you have any opinion on this titels and if they are worth picking up to read.

@Mikeyuubi 2 года назад

Haven't checked out o-parts hunter but I have heard it's pretty good. However with Samurai 8 it's a bit of a mixed bag. I've read it and it's unfortunately nothing that great and doesn't show off Kishimoto's skills that made Naruto so great. It got cancelled, meaning its a short read, so if you're interested you might as well experience it for yourself. I plan on making a video about Samurai 8 in the future to talk more about it critically, but for now give it a read to see if its something you'll enjoy considering how short it is :)
