Gachiakuta Creator Claps Back at Soul Eater Haters With a Viral Post

As a die-hard manga and anime enthusiast with over two decades of passion under my belt, I can confidently say that Kei Urana’s response to a Soul Eater hater has solidified their spot in the pantheon of great creators. With Gachiakuta gaining momentum since its debut in 2022, and an upcoming anime adaptation slated for 2025, it’s clear that this series is destined for greatness.


It turns out that the artist behind the popular manga “Gachiakuta” has gained widespread attention due to a passionate defense they posted online against a critic of the anime “Soul Eater”. This manga, initially published in Kodansha’s Weekly Shonen Magazine in 2022, and soon to be adapted into an anime, has already garnered a significant following among manga enthusiasts. However, with its official anime adaptation scheduled for next year, the series is set to gain even more fans due to the creator’s ardent support of other popular franchises, including “Soul Eater”, which is marking its 20th anniversary.

Atsushi Okubo’s “Soul Eater” is marking its 20th anniversary in Japan with a new art exhibition showcasing its most memorable scenes, and Urana showed excitement about attending on social media. However, when someone criticized “Soul Eater” on platform X, Urana’s response was unexpectedly harsh: “Soul Eater : god[.] You go to work.” This statement resonated strongly with fans, causing the original comment to be removed, as the person may not have anticipated such a strong retort. Now, it adds to the anticipation for the “Gachiakuta” anime.

Soul Eater : god
You go to work.

What Is Gachiakuta?

The popular manga “Gachiakuta,” initially penned by Kei Urana in 2022 for Kodansha’s “Weekly Shonen Magazine,” will be animated under the guidance of Fumihiko Suganama, who is set to direct it at studio Bones. Hiroshi Seko will be responsible for writing the series scripts, while Satoshi Ishino will oversee character designs and serve as chief animation director. If you’re eager to dive into the world of “Gachiakuta” before the anime debuts, the first few volumes are available on shelves now.

In Kodansha’s hint about the comic book Gachiakuta, they suggest that readers should anticipate a story about Rudo, a resident of a floating town’s slums. He resides under the oppressive gaze of the wealthy who live lavishly and carelessly toss their trash into oblivion. One fateful day, Rudo is wrongly accused of murder and faces an unthinkable penalty–exile beyond the edge, among the rubbish. Down below, cast-off human waste has spawned vicious creatures, and if Rudo wishes to uncover the truth and exact revenge on those who banished him to Hell, he must learn a new ability and align himself with a group called the Cleaners. These individuals confront the towering trash beasts in the Pit.
