For once, the shitlibs weren’t just crying wolf: Drama Queen is pretty much everything they accuse it of being, and it’s GLORIOUS. Here are some examples of just how spicy this manga is:
a Great Replacement is depicted in all its soul-crushing, alienating misery: the Japanese are being rapidly crowded out and Replaced by aliens, who refuse to integrate, enjoy preferential treatment, engage in shameless nepotism, dominate sports and pop culture, and subject the native Japanese people to random, senseless acts of violence. Also, they’re a total eyesore.
pop culture has been weaponized to constantly push pro-alien brainwashing propaganda and make sure that humans Never Forget the debt they owe the aliens.
the (very few) benefits of aliens effectively colonizing earth are constantly highlighted and exaggerated, all while life for the average human has unambiguously become worse. “…but the technology tho!” is Drama Queen’s equivalent of “but the food tho!”.
this entire new alien-dominated world order is justified on the basis of a single event, which nobody questions, and which may in fact have been a hoax.
free speech has been abolished in order to suppress all criticism of the aliens, leaving those who dislike them feeling alone and isolated, as well as mystified by how seemingly “everyone” is embracing the current dystopia. As such, Nomamoto finally coming across a kindred spirit who’s also willing to admit that he hates the aliens is depicted as a joyful, liberating moment.
the fact that no case of a human killing an alien has ever been reported by the media reminds me of the obsessive censorship efforts by governments and Big Tech to suppress the video showing Tarrant’s kebab removal.
And that’s not even an exhaustive list! For this sort of content to appear in a Shonen Jump manga starring a cute girlfailure MC is truly glorious.
Of course, I don’t really think Drama Queen will be able to keep up this level of kino, even if it’s not outright shut down. I’m not even talking about an AoT-style story and character derailment here, it’s just rare to see modern Japanese media that starts off this strong not fall off fast. Goblin Slayer certainly didn’t manage to keep up chapter 1’s genocidal grimdark kino, and Redo of Healer also peaked very early with Flaire’s rape correction.
But even if Drama Queen falls off, even if the author is forced to ruin his story in order to atone for his crime of dropping redpills about mass immigration (the translation literally uses the term “peaceful invasion”), it has already done a great thing and improved our culture just a little bit by helping spread so many “dangerous” ideas and giving voice to the voiceless, i.e. millions of IRL Nomamotos and Kitamis.

That's the problem with manga that needs to shit out new content every week. There's no way it can ever have any quality storytelling in the long term. Plus, being as it's not about a retarded middle-school aged boy who wants to be the best combat-related thing ever, Jump will likely can it before it produces even one volume worth of content.
