Re: Weekly Shonen Jump [2011] - Discussion and TOC Talk - Part 2

so Nisekoi really is getting serialized? excuse me while I go fangasm
Komi really deserves to get a series, I would have been fine with whatever series he gets published.

Good to see that ST&RS rank rised, maybe it's not doomed yet! I'm sad that Mago is so underrated but as it's not in an immediate danger it's no big deal.

Totally happy with the TOC, now I wonder if Enigma is the only series that will get canceled this time.

I would never expected Nisekoi being serialized. It is good as one-shot; don't know if it can be good enough as a serie in WSJ. But it is Komi Naoshi and I'm really happy for him. Like naruto-niichan, I would have been fine with whatever series he gets published as well.

Nice TOC this week. Naruto holding down the top spot. Bleach is fourth. Magico is evades the bottom 5 and ST&RS moves itself from the bottom. The only thing that would of made it better is if Mago wasn't second to last. Either good TOC.

Also this time Ohana missed Inumaru Dashi...

Inumaru Dashi is between Medaka Box and HunterXHunter.

*eyes pop out* please tell me I'm not seeing things.... Naoshi is BACK!!??? naruto-nii, you and me both

I agree Nisekoi was probably better off as a one-shot, but who knows this one might be be good as a series. Remember that one-shots and the serialized versions can be different. So I'm quite eager to see how he'll change things around.

Sket Dance in 3rd place again is great to see. If any series must be getting a massive boost from its anime this one might be it. Breaking into the top 3 like it has been doing is impressive. I'm a bit behind on One Piece but 2nd place doesn't surprise me from what people have been telling me. Medaka seems firmly entrenched in the

Harusigawa's downward trend continues. I shouldn't have read it yet after all. Whether it can climb up or turns into the new cushion time will tell. Enigma is as good as dead at this point I think. St&rs is at the top of the bottom 5 but still not in the best of positions. Another new series huh. Well, we will see if he learned anything from last time.

What a great ToC.
Harisugawa so low is a big surprise!

And I wish Magico to get a Color page soon and even a Cover, but it's almost impossible right now.

Is Enigma ended this issue or not yet?

Also, it looks like Nisekoi going to be serialized. I'm glad that Komi has returned but I'm not sure he brought right genre in right time. Jump already have two romance series (well, one of them is mix of action), so I'm not sure Jump needs a third one. I wonder if this means Kagami is keep doing bad or the editors try to do a another Hoopmen plan.

don't like it at all. i mean it's like every 2-3 years he gets the chance for serialization and if he gets one, i want a story which has a bigger chance to survive. it's not like i didn't enjoy his pieces, it's just is worst story of all of them, which seems dissapointed to me. maybe he changes a great deal about the one-shot, so just guessing.

it's not far off looking at it's currently pace.

...editors try to do a another Hoopmen plan.

was it a sacrifice lamp? don't know what you mean...

Kind of like a sacrifie lamp. I think Hoopmen is for making Kuroko much nicer by comparing both.

Nice ToC
Gintama has a really good place too.
I guess based on the ToC, sket dance is on the roll.

Very exciting that Komi is coming back. Of his post Double Arts one shots I actually enjoyed Nisekoi the most. I'm sure it will need some retooling, all one shots do, but the premise could make for a good series. If he plays up the antagonism it could end up having a nice "Moonlighting" vibe.

It bears repeating: Jump's audience has become older over the last year. Now that 70% of readers are over 16 there will likely be more room for sports, slice of life, and romance with the number of new action titles declining. If most readers were still in there early teens, to much romance would not have worked. But based on the media guide the trend will be towards genre that appeal to readers in their late teens or older.

This is only his second serialization. Personally I thought Apple and Personant were his worst one shots. Nisekoi was considerably better than either, in my opinion a more refreshing read. His first three one shots were the best but all were before Double Arts was serialized.

Although when I compare Hoopmen and Kuroko, Hoopmen was far superior on all grounds imo lol XD

Y'know what?? if that Viz Jump Alpha has a section for comments, we really need to spam it with Naoshi-worship!! (of course, it'll depend if it becomes as enjoyable as DA)

Re: Weekly Shonen Jump [2011] - Discussion and TOC Talk - Part 2

Wow, Naruto still nr1 spot <I still believe its due to OP being not soooo impressive, just good, imo> I'm shocked because its the first time in a long time Naruto managed to hit nr1 spots so many times <right?>

Either its because of the

Spoiler

Sasuke appearance <most definitely>
or because of..

...

the Second Mizukage dude little appearance <trolling, sorry xP>
