You know, I have no idea if it was bombing or not, but I suspect it wasn't doing *that* badly. I really have no idea why they pulled it, especially since as demonstrated in Ruroken, Watsuki's plots just get better and better the more involved the story gets, once it's picked up enough momentum. I mean, Gun Blaze West didn't do all that well, and I can kinda see why, but Busou Renkin? I dunno, it seemed kinda abrupt that they pulled it.
Some parts of volume 9 seemed a little rushed to me, largely because several new characters were introduced in the last plot arc that I think Watsuki had more plans for than he actually got to play out. However, the actually ending in the last part of volume 9 and into volume 10 is just fine.
