Mag Talk Weekly Shonen Jump [2011 - 2012] - Discussion and TOC Talk

Actually it is the power of friendship vs. the power of hatred. Has been since the beginning of the series, as far back as the Land of Waves arc. Naruto has always represented friendship, acceptance, tolerance, etc. while his enemies were always overcome by feelings of anger, hatred, vengeance, fear, and jealousy. Zabuza, Gara, Orochimaru, Akatsuki, Pain, Sasuke, and Tobi all fit that description. The series ends with the war because a victory by Naruto symbolizes friendship overcoming hatred. His goal of becoming Hokage never had the literal importance that everyone always places on it. It was meant to symbolize that Naruto's ambition is for the top and nothing less. His goal of becoming Hokage has never had any impact on actually events within the story.

what a reply, i thought you don't read Naruto but i was wrong. yup you are right that's what the story is about and because of it i think this IS the last arc for sure

Dammit. Pajama's first rank is even worse than Hanasaka Ikkyuu and Sengoku Armors. Is also the only series since Hanasaka Ikkyuu to not receive a CP on chapter 7-9. The future is definately not looking to good for it

Atleast Haikyuu and Nisekoi are doing well

It would be really stupid if they stretched (continued) Bakuman, after an arc that especialy deals with this stuff. I'm really really looking forward to O&O's new series.

Took a long time but STARS are being cancelled... well it's fine.

I was hoping bleach won't return to the lower half for a while...
I kind of don't like this TOC xD

Oh wow. Another One Piece color page already? What a treat. Hopefully Oda does something a little different this time though. I love his color pages always, but I'm getting a little tired of the same old "Straw Hats hanging out" pics. I'm still a little disappointed he didn't give us a "villain face-off" color page with the New Fishman Pirates, like he did with the Arlong Pirates, Baroque Works, and CP9...

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

Isn't that Pajama first rank ? That's not terrible compared to HQ (a color page followed by 23 pages). Did jump readers do not like overuse of ecchi pose ? It seems like Manga Editors took the wrong horse.
Now that St&rs is gone, the last place will become interesting. Although if some series naturally end like it is suggested it could be safe for some time

And a one piece color just when the covers reach the war arc, damn you teaser Oda !

Lol @ Bleach.

Haikyu!! is doing great it seems! I'd really love to read more past the first chapter. Wonder how many new series we will get this time around?

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

Nisekoi volume 1 cover wasn't very good I was going to buy multiple copies but I'll probably just buy one now. But there is always hope for future covers to be better!

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

I don't like how Bleach, Reborn! and Kurogane are near the bottom 5.

Spoiler

If going by the -8 chapters rule then the final arc must of begun (people must of really liked Ichigo vs Ginjou since it got rank 1 2 weeks back or was it Tsukishima dying?), Reborn! had the Fong vs Mammon fight and Kurogane had Hiroto vs Kurogane or the thugs.

I could see Bleach falling a bit but not Reborn or Kurogane.

But I guess thats what the audience in Japan like even if I don't agree with it.

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

Beel and Bleach seems to have changed places, almost.
Reborn! isn't that great nowadays so I understand the placing.
Mago is still around the bottom (which chapter is that btw)

#21-22 :

Bakuman (Color)

Colour Ending or Colour Climax-pre-Ending? xD

 

[Silverblade]

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

A really good top five? Bleach and Reborn shown their rightful places? Nice.

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

I hope Kurogane rises the current tournament matches have been great and I feel the author will only continue to improve given time Paki should be next to go

Likely Colour-pre-Ending; Mashiro proposing. Check Heiji's post. Though, I still think they might stretch the story with a final Eiji arc.

Heiji's the same with Mangastream's (Nisekoi-Bakuman-Kuroko)
Maybe an error on ohana's part

Well its about time STARS ended and am guessing Pakki will be soon to follow. Don't like this TOC at all (flipping table in anger). Bleach had a major swan dive this week from the previous weeks and the rest of my favorites are all in the bottom. Don't really care for Pakki though.

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

If someone interested I made Top 35 Best selling manga of WSJ, it's not very updated but it's way more updated than "Top 40 Best Selling" which on youtube already four years.

For those who are interested, Cross Manage is a sport love comedy oneshot.

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

Mago is still around the bottom (which chapter is that btw)

Either c189 where Rikuo fought against his first Gokadoin or c190 which was the aftermath of that battle and explanation of what Gokadoin's plan to do.

Nah, I think Bakuman cannot stretch anymore; it should end very soon.

 

[Kubukurin]

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

No more series will be axed, Bakuman will end soon and we'll have two new series in issue 23 and 24.
Pakki is the only series really in danger of axing but it will be featured in spring's next, and usually only the series not featured in next are in danger of axing. The only series not in the next this time is ST&RS which has just been axed.
Unless there are still fools who think that Mago could be axed.
