I just finished reading Ken Ishikawa's Majuu Sensen. This manga had more references to the bible than fucking Devilman.Judas is the one who betrays God, of course
I saw some complaints about it, and I'm not sure what they are, other than the cliffhanger ending.
Other than that, just purely from a revenge story, this was a blast. I can see why they carried some of the designs into the Getter Robo OVAs.
I also heard there's a sequel manga, but that will have to wait since it's not scanlated.

I think the anime adaptation is one of those randomly chosen violent-and-over-the-top-thus-bad "WORST ANIME EVER"s
Funnily enough the show that was brought to the west as "Ninja Resurrection" that has the same reputation (but this time over people mistakently believing it's related to Ninja Scroll so at least there's some explanation) is also based on an Ishikawa manga

I meant complaints about the manga on /m/. He never explained more other than saying it's bad.
Which Majuu Sensen adaptation you're talking about? There are the ovas and tv series.
Also I never heard of ninja resurrection. You're being mistaken.

The hot meme is to hate everything Ishikawa made

I doubt that. If he hated Ishikawa, he wouldn't have checked out Majuu Sensen.
Getter Robo is everyone's first stop for Ishikawa.

Okay, I finally figured out what you meant by Ninja Resurrection, and you're wrong.
The Makai Tensho OVA has nothing to do with Ken Ishikawa's manga other than the fact that they both adapt Yamada's Makai Tensho novel.

Anyway, I was talking about the cliffhanger ending in Majuu Sensen, not Makai Tensho.
Also, here are the Majuu Sensen OVAs.

There is too many hot memes about hating classic /m/ creators these days.

Didn't ADV market this as a direct sequel to Ninja Scroll?
Is it all of Majuu Sensen in english already?
Hope they can tl the sequel.

No. Only the original manga.
The sequel manga only came out in the early 2000s either way.
