agree on the marketing stuff, and its so sad because the coherency of the story is suffering from it. ntm we have enough material on them? there is so much more to explore.. yet with skk shippers making 80% of the fanbase you end up with people dropping the manga or complaining 24/7 because their favs aren’t involved. anyways chuuya is a better character in the novels, in stormbringer he’s actually likeable, but that’s it? which is disappointing. <— and i have many complaints about that novel too +
Chuuya is actually a quite likable guy but his insatiable rabid fandom made me dislike him. For a miniature part he has in the main story he's given too great part in the marketing, for reasons we all know. If we were being fair that spot should be given Kunikida or Ranpo, or maybe even Fyodor as the main villain. As far as I recall Asagiri said himself in one of the recent interviews that Chuuya sort of hijacked the manga and it doesn't take a genius to read in between the lines and figure what he meant by that
