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

Well, another one bites the dust. I guess.
Do we think that'll be the last series ending? Inumaru, Magico, and Nurarihyon all ended. Usually long-running series don't end all together that fast. Do we think Kurogane and such will keep going?

 

[Limit]

So Magico actually ended, I never really got into the series so I can't say I'm shaken by it. I am sad about Beelzebub being in the bottom 5, hopefully it'll recover it's ranking. Also, it actually does seem like Bleach is going to be the new Mago.

I'm betting Kurogane and Pajama (and whatever else might end soon) will last till the next round of cuts.

 

[wintercry]

Another series might get canned after the Golden Future Cup oneshots are finished. So that's probably around Issues 38 to 40.

Yeah, it's too bad that even ch. 9 of Pajama couldn't even help it. I was kinda hoping for it to improve since it's really decent and very slice-of-lifeish.

Ooh, Sket Dance is above Naruto as well. That's rare, especially in this big climax-y fight. The rest is pretty average.

Also, the title is "Ansatsu Kyoushitsu". I don't see anything to indicate it has the title written in English anywhere. I'm hoping Takamagahara, I thought its one-shot was cool looking.

I thought it sounded cool and the translation is correct so it shouldn't really be a problem.

The same with PSI Kusuo Saiki instead of Chounouryokusha Saiki Kusuo no Sainan to make it easier for people to understand, but if it is a problem I can change it.

 

[k-dom]

It's nice to see a group of 4 new series all together so high in the TOC. Sket Dance beating Naruto is also a good bonus to this TOC.

I agree, english names are 100 more easier to remember and more explicit for non japanese speakers.

Totally not biased, I love it as well!! Assassination Classroom? Is that the name of this new series, since the teacher is a weird green octopus thing! xD Wow, this might turn out to be a really good new comedy, nice to see new series in WSJ that catch my attention. I usually do not give them a try due to the bad runs they have over the years.

Also Bleach has been in the bottom five for hoe many weeks now?

Center Colour: Haikyuu!!, Assassination Classroom, Medaka Box

Hum, it seems like half of the Haikyuu issues are in colored recently...

 

[wintercry]

Its position is always high, too. I might as well give it a try, eventually.

 

[nyamonyamo]

Should rephrase that. Its how many years not weeks XD

Jokes aside, will someone pick up any of the new series? That green ghostbuster-michelin looks cool

 

[k-dom]

Given the mangaka name, I'm not worried about it.
I rather wonder if Psi will be picked one day, its ranks are not shameful at all so I assume it's not that bad.

It was kind of a roller coaster over the years I think. In the last few years it was up and down a lot of times. Depends on which arc I think. It seems the current one really is not a favorite one. The previous was not liked as much, but that arc itself had ups and down in the ToC.

 

[Jaymie]

R.I.P Magico. At least you managed to wrap up nicely. Kurogane's probably next, though I doubt it will be canceled during this period. And depending on how the new series do, it may manage to barely hang on like Magico did.

 

[Jaiden82]

So they finally canned Magico huh? Too bad, I really like the series.

Looking forward to reading Assassination Classroom.

Ah Bleach....am not going to complain though.

This arc is way better than the last one and it keeps getting better. So am hoping in the next couple weeks the ranking gets better.

 

[Reith]

So, Magico will get an final chapter in Jump NEXT? They still have to show the result of character popularity.
