Re: Weekly Shounen Jump [2009] - Discussion & TOC Talk v.3

I agree with akainu, a movie couldn't jusitfy this row of CP. It is extremely abnormal and I am even wondering if information of 4 issues can justify this. So there's different possibilities:
- a movie? well it is a first movie but is the anime and manga as popular as bleach, naruto and one piece to have an own movie? Well the anime is still ongoing, I won't say: surely no. You never know that those CP might be CP of some movie shots, char designs, etc
- the end? Highly unlikely. If WSJ would get this into its head then I am going to dig my grave, lie in a coffin and come out ten years later

My guess: I think it will be storylike. I have always believed that to win against the millefiore, the vongola should change to their future selves (with some technology, don't forget Irie preserved their bodies). So I wouldn't be surprised if the mangaka will decide for an indefinite goodbye to the younger vongola. Maybe, Reborn will enter a new stage. A new stage doesn't necessarily come with an arc's end. It would be refreshing to switch the younger with the older ones. Some cool CP to promote all this sudden change

So whereas gaiden introduced a new stage in naruto. These row of CP might introduce a new stage in reborn (maybe mukuro's appearance was a prelude of this)

A movie is not impossible, there are manga outside Jump who sold less than Reborn and got a movie such as Inu Yasha. Any magazine would want to have a hit like Reborn and turn it into a movie. Reborn may not be as popular as Bleach, OP, Hunter or Naruto, but if you look outside Jump, there are few shonen manga outside Jump that outsold it. It sold arround 500-600k, an amazing sale by any standard.

Oh come on, not even a movie could justify four consecutive weeks of colourpages that's extremly abnormal imo (not even Naruto, One Piece or the likes got that once, right?) IF it'll happen at all ...

Not so sure justify is the word I'd use. I've been wondering what reason the editors could find to give one series color pages in every issue for a month after a "big announcement" of some sort. An upcoming movie is the only announcement I can think of that I can back up with an empirical, or at the least educated, guess. Even the end of the Future arc hardly seems worthy of four color pages. I feel like the only thing big enough to justify it is if they are planning to move it to SQ in December or January. While not far fetched, plenty of popular manga have switched magazines, there's no way for me to argue it is anything other than a wild guess, probably an incorrect one. Most likely something more mundane will be announced; end of the arc, movie, major plot development, or the editors just like Akira - sensei.

Maybe it's not just one announcement but many. As in there might be a movie plus something else.

If Reborn moves to another magazine it's going to save another botom series LOL if this happens it will be asecond time in two months.

There isn't lots of reviews from Hokenshitsu and no reviews what so ever from Lilienthal. Even there aren't any translation/Edited Manga of Hokenshitsu and Lilienthal. I know it is too early to judge both new series, but I want to know how people think about them.

 

[Kaiten]

Re: Weekly Shounen Jump [2009] - Discussion & TOC Talk v.3

Without a script I have no opinion. I'd like to read both, particularly Rilienthal.

Re: Weekly Shounen Jump [2009] - Discussion & TOC Talk v.3

I'm really diggin' Lilienthal [sorry, it's a name in my mother tongue and I just don't have the heart to write "Rilienthal" even though the author romanized it that way...it's f'ugly lol]...it's pretty funny, quite wacky and the art style is very refreshing (well, mainly the dog's design that is).

If it weren't for several weeks old TLs I'm lagging behind and still didn't find the time to tackle, it'd be a candidate to translate...but right now I can't afford it.


As for Hokenshitsu, the OS wasn't really my cup of tea, so I didn't check it out yet...

 

[Kaiten]

Re: Weekly Shounen Jump [2009] - Discussion & TOC Talk v.3

Now I really want to read it **wishes he could read Japanese**

If anyone can TL let me know, I'd love to scanlate it!

You should try Hokenshitsu. It is way better than one shot.

And I agree with you about Lilienthal, it is pretty funny.

Re: Weekly Shounen Jump [2009] - Discussion & TOC Talk v.3

Both of them seem pretty good.

Hoping at least one succeeds.

Official translations of the first chapters of both Hokenshitsu and Rilenthal are available through Shonen Jump's website. You have to download a "manga browser" to view them, though it's nothing too complicated. I don't know how long they were up (I only just discovered the site last month), but the first chapters of Ane-Doki, Kagijin, and Wajimania were all up as well for awhile (I guess they were added shortly after they each officially debuted in Jump).

You're right...how silly of us to not realize this, thanks. I'm gonna go readin'

Completely forgot they do that

Re: Weekly Shounen Jump [2009] - Discussion & TOC Talk v.3

I liked Lilienthal, not for comedy or gag, but just for the story and characters (weird right?) it was pretty amusing.

Hokenshitsu is not bad. It's been doing pretty good with introducig characters, and new characters have been pretty likeableb or interesting at least. But not sure how it will compete with others. It needs something more solid in my opinion, but it is off with a good start I think.

Wow... Is Jump gonna be the one Editing this series?

 

[Kaiten]

Re: Weekly Shounen Jump [2009] - Discussion & TOC Talk v.3

At least for a few chapters. They've been posting translated versions of new series for a while now, on a rotating basis. I'm not sure how many chapters they will do but it won't be the whole series.

The Death Note and Bakuman pair are a lot older than I thought.
I expected the artist to be in his 30s along with the mangakas of Big 3...

Oda is still pretty young

Re: Weekly Shounen Jump [2009] - Discussion & TOC Talk v.3

Funny sket's author is older than Sorachi I spected him to be younger since assistants usually are younger than their "bosses". What did he felt while working with a younger serialised artist. This reminds me of Nakai from Bakuman.

What the, some of the big hit authors are pretty young, wow. Except for Togashi, what the hell is he doing playing dragon quest at 43 years old.
