Your work is in a weekly Shonen-type magazine.
The main character has been around for years, but your plan was always to eventually kill them off and let their progeny carry the torch as the story continued from there. Once you reached the point where you feel that you've taken the MC as far as you could, you go through with your plan, to the shock of your readers and editor. However, the MC was very popular, and months later, your manga is now suffering a gradual decline in popularity. Your editor is practically begging you to find some way to bring the original MC back; as of now, your work does not include a mechanism to revive the dead. Would you acquiesce with your editor's--and the fans'--wishes and find some way to bring back the original main character? Or would you continue on with your original plan for the story, despite your work's longevity being a sinking ship? --- "Be good to yourself, because everyone else in the world is probably out to get you." - Dr. Harleen Quinzel ...

That death was a masterpiece. I will not cheapen it by acquiescing to the demands of the unwashed masses.

Could always do a flashback
Or go full troll and bring back the MC but make him a loser and constantly humiliate/degrade him --- When the going gets tough, the tough go have a little cry in the corner. "Your mustache is crooked" ~ R.I.P Randy Savage. ... Copied to Clipboard!

I'd have sense to kill the MC and end the series instead of dragging it out afterward.

Unless the series gets cancelled, then the readers will have to get used to my character's offspring and their development. The previous protagonist was killed for a reason.
The idea of bringing them back and making them a total loser or the next main antagonist like others have said is kind of ingenious and funny though. --- *quote from a character from a game* ... Copied to Clipboard!

So basically, what happened with Dragonball Z?Not quite, that was just Toriyama realizing he didn't like writing protag Gohan. The Buu saga was basically unedited, unrestricted Toriyama (can't blame him after having to switch main villains like 3 times during the Cell saga due to his ex editor telling him the other villains were lame). He wasn't really led by popularity or even editor demands by then --- FC: 3840-6927-7945, have OR/Y/SM4SH/PSMD/S/US I'm a youtuber, here is my link: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCRj1lj8EWzRtw3jp3HUXCxQ? .I play games ...

Have the new protagonist walk into the shower only to find the original protagonist ahowering already in all his highly detailed muscular glory with minimal censorship for the magazine.
It will turn out that the last several volumes were actually a coma arc. --- ayy lmao ayy lmao || oaml oaml yya yya ayy lmao ayy lmao || oaml oaml yya yya ... Copied to Clipboard!
