Shounen Jump manga series created by Hokazono Takeru in 2023, following the story of Rokuhira Chihiro.
Prior to its debut, its first chapter was leaked a week ahead of time. In response to several elements in the chapter itself, as well as the overarching discourse at the time over WSJ's line-up, the manga received an abnormal amount of attention on the online West, ironically labeling it the magazine's new torchbearer in a meme campaign comparable to that of Morbius, which then promptly led many to label it an 'industry plant'. Typical references to the meme include edits and redraws of the key art released with the manga's debut announcement. The aftermath of the meme would see appreciation for the manga go from the ironic to the sincere, due to its genuine quality.
