Mag Talk Weekly Shonen Jump [2011] - Discussion and TOC Talk

[SoulEaterFreak]

Inumarudashi has a CP and 17 pages this week.

Wow. That's brutal. I never thought I'd see Bleach in the bottom half two weeks in a row. Kubo: Plot, NOW.

I bet you'll see it even three weeks in a row in the bottom half.

 

[Rejuvenation]

Looking forward to Medaka and Toriko color this week. ^__^

No surprise One Piece takes the #1 spot. Sket and Bakuman in the top 5 with it really makes me happy though. Good on them.

So it seems all the new series are struggling except Magico. Well, if at least one makes it I guess thats alright.

Bleach where it rightfully belongs though it should be lower. Kubo has been putting minimal effort in this train wreck manga for too long.

man, we have a dense list of ranked series this week. Good to see Magico holding on at #7, and... well... you can totally see which series about football will die horrifically in the short future, at least.

They never seem to learn. But those football manga serve their purpose as fodder so I welcome them. Jump editors can keep churning them out all they want.

is this medakas real rank? because of the colour it will be unranked in the 8th chapter from now, or not? if so it would be a great "comeback" for a bottom dweller.

bakuman is great as well. bleach is okay and will rank higher when the next fight starts.

No, series with CP's are unranked in the issue in which they have a CP.
In other words, Medaka Box is NOT ranked this week.

 

[Koen]

Is bleach lucky that the new series such as dois sol, meruhen and sengoku armors are failing? Imagine that one or two would have gotten a satisfying ToC position then Bleach would have ended up in the bottom five

Anyway, cool ToC the three last series are one I don't care about

Somehow i find the Toriko cover to be really disturbing:/

Anyhow,it seems Naruto is struggling lately,probably because of the war.Maybe Kishi will decide to give it a little more effort after seeing that the second spot isn't granted anymore.

 

[Nuno]

Meh, wtf is Bleach doing down there, it's certainly been bland as of late (not counting the last 3 or so weeks), but it doesn't deserve such a spot. It's like the fanbase is sending a message "we want something else" instead of being good judges.

Hooray for Gintama. (PS: Bored with #1 being there always. Like that manga's chapters are always best. Again this is proof of votes being rather useless).

Going by the latest chapters, it seems like it will most likely get #2 and possibly #1 in some cases too in a couple of weeks.

 

[Bomber D Rufi]

Well damn Gintama. Although I'm fairly sure that it's rank is indicative of the anime returning.....nothing particularily exciting has happened in the last eight weeks to suggest that it recieved that rank from something that occured in the manga. Still, Gintama rules, even if it is only in Japan sadly.

 

[R4n]

I won't mind seeing OP take the number 1, i actually enjoy OP chapters much more than the rest of the current wsj series combined (except Enigma). Before anybody accuse me of being an OPtard... i am not. I am just a casual reader who really do enjoy One Piece.

I am unhappy seeing Enigma near the bottom, but then competition in WSJ is ridiculously fierce. At least it is above Bleach. Well deserved indeed.

 

[Jaiden82]

12th Bleach seriously man wtf!!! Damn voters ARGHHHH!! Moving on I don't even want to talk about it anymore, moving on. My other favs are doing well Naruto and Bakuman are in the top 5. Reborn in 10th but am cool with that. Mago still wish you were higher.

Agreed.

 

[Finestela]

Someone was asking about these.

Anime Ratings, the latest numbers:
Ao Ex:4.1%---3.4%---(Below 4.7%)---(Below 4.2%)
(The number for 3 and 4 won't be available until the magazine publishing the complete data is out, due to the fact that it's too low in the time slot to be ranked in the telephone data inquiry. The "below xx%" number is simply the lowest ranked rating at the same time slot.)
Beelze:1.7%---2.0%---3.0%---2.5%---3.1%---2.6%---3.1%
Bleach: 3.8%---2.3%---1.7%---2.2%---1.6%---2.1%

 

[Divinenega]

Bit sad to see Enigma so low, but both it and Reborn are above Bleach in addition to getting color pages next week it;s all good.

But damn, I;m surprised at the amount of buffer we have this time around. Guess I don;t have to worry about Medaka getting cancelled anytime soon...although it looks like Shinigami is going to barely dodge the axe again.

 

[StrangerAtaru]

I have noticed that with Bleach slipping, Kubo is actually starting to wake up...which is probably good for it's fans but not as much for it's detractors. Heck, it literally is "this close" to finally reaching bottom five!

And as for the TOC...yeah, I doubt it has anything to do with Naruto and more to do with Gintama just being notable and getting an anime boost for the time being. And congrats for both Toriko and Medaka's color pages.

 

[NANAhashi]

Sorry for butt in, but Naruto indeed deserves lower rank in this issue. Those previous 8-4 chapters were seriously boring. Those war fillers and side characs drama are not enjoyable at all.

But I hope it will rank as #2 or even #1 after that. Recent chapters are quite nice.

Also, time to say goodbye to dolsol and maybe along with grim&Senkoku armor.

 

[SoulEaterFreak]

12th Bleach seriously man wtf!!! Damn voters ARGHHHH!!

I don't know if I'm the only one who's read that Inumarudashi has a CP this week, so BLEACH is 11th, like last week. Sad but true.

Bleach: 3.8%---2.3%---1.7%---2.2%---1.6%---2.1%

Just because I'm a little curious, how low were the Ratings for KHR before it got off the air.
I'm pretty sure Bleach will not go off the air until the Manga is finished because the DVD do sell well and that's the only thing that matters for the Studios. KHR will also probably get the Anime back once there is more Material.
And one more thought. Could it be that KHR is going to end? I always thought KHR is one of the immortal series which means there Ranking doesn't matter at all but the recent pace of the chapters do make me think.

I doubt it. There are still too many loose ends for KHR to be ending anytime soon. The Ceremony arc is about done though.

I count about 2 loose ends, after Naruto (assuming it ends by the end of next year), I think KHR will follow suit.
