this is completely how i feel, like exactly. i stopped reading it a bit after the shibuya ark and have just kinda been checking in every now and again to see how the story is going. i honestly don't understand what gege is doing anymore, it feels like he has REALLY lost the plot and im tired of the cheap shock value of another character dying because gege sucks sukanas dick at every opportunity.

After the Shibuya arc, everything just kept going downhill. Ngl, even the Shibuya arc was a letdown in some areas, but it finished strong in the end. With all the dumb characters he kept introducing, the death break-neck pacing of the story. I feel like it has become a lot more boring and less impactful. I am not even a huge fan of them doing the whole backstory/info dump in the middle of a fight scene, either. Alot of Mangas do it well, but jjk has done it to much, it breaks up the pacing, and a lot of it feels kind of forced ( which yes, i know is to explain why they are doing it, but it just feels out of now where) this is esp the problem with Yuji since his progression just feels super ungratifying see him do all these things...
tldr: the story feels ungratifying and boring. I have kinda stopped caring about a lot of characters, and wished the author would have given itself more arc between the bridge suicide arc and shibuya arc and then also another arc btw shibuya and the culling games
