Maybe someone should submit a story about a super muscular female fighter taking place in a world similar to Black Clover or Fairy Tail. A gendered reversed DBZ/Fist of the North Star.
Now that would be something worth seeing!

I see that one comment got removed for whatever reason.
My guess is that one user's comment was in bad taste or something. I thought he was joking and really wasn't against the idea of a strong female protagonist in a shonen manga, especially one from Shonen Jump, but oh well.

What was wrong with Claymore?

Oh, I really liked Claymore and the concept behind it.
Sadly, it never caught on like some of the more famous SJ works. I really wish it was more famous than it was. It could have inspired many other works.
Not to mention, the anime adaptation didn’t get the best kind of reception.

Besides, I think it is high time we got a muscular female styled Shōnen manga.
