I think it means the author got notified it would be cancelled but they left him finish it in 1 or 2 more chapters so he rushed an ending.
Well, it's a little bit more complicated than that. The average series that gets either Completed
or Cancelled
is probably somewhere in between. Due to how serialization and publishing work, a great many stories will finish before they were intended to. Yet usually when we hear about abrupt cancellations - i.e. what Cancelled
is typically reserved for - we learn that an author had at most just a few chapters to wrap things up. This case was quite different - the artist settled for much less, but still had one half to a third of the manga to develop the ending. It feels wrong to call it Cancelled
when it was given such a wide berth, yet it also feels wrong to call it Completed
when the author was feeling the burn of cancellation.
tl;dr It was kinda both Cancelled
and Completed
, so it got both tags. The end!
