"There have been many manga series where a new character enters the story and I wonder why. Either because we just had a new character not long before, or because the current characters haven’t had a chance to establish themselves, or simply because I don’t see what this new character adds to the dynamics of the story."
I can't even begin to describe how much I agree with this.
Thank you! Yeah, it's a real problem in some series. I genuinely can't think of any off the top of my head, which is usually indicative of the fact that the series that don't time their character introductions well... usually don't linger in my brain. I'm just so enamored with how well Dandadan manages this. It's remarkable.

Love this! I am all about ensemble, as you well may know with my love for My Hero Academia :)
