Re: Weekly Shonen Jump [2012-2013] - Discussion and TOC Talk - Part 2

theres no rule thats says a series wich was in the top cant be at bottom......past ranks dont affect current ranks

You are half right, but generally we don't see series have a fall that sharply. In the polls there is much more than only coldly choose 3 series that had good chapters. There is a bunch of factors that prevents the readers lose their interest in a series from a issue to another. This only occurs with new series that the readers are still testing if it correspond at your taste. Also there is people that votes in a series only to cheer up it because they like it, without take in consideration if the chapter were good or not, and many others factors that are uncountable.

So I agree with Eru13, a slump may occur, but it isn't common.
And still there is the case fo Hime-dol that isn't ranked and until now was placed in the middle of the TOC. It's quite illogical the editors put it in the bottom 5 so suddenly.

It could happen though, the most recent example I can think of is World Trigger between chapter 8-10 (forgot the actual chapter), where it got a color page and the week after it was on bottom 3. Sure the series isn't as popular as Nisekoi but well...

Well, Mutou Black isn't a good example because it was cancelled with only 12 chapters, it was a failure rare to see. I can say at least that put unranked new series in bottom 5 isn't a habit of the editors.

I've lost count of how many times the early bottom 5 turned out to be fake by now. Lol. We should just wait.

So, was that bottom 6 preview a fake?
Cause Nisekoi isn't a series to fall suddenly in a week. Even if it has to fall, it wouldn't be so randomly. Of course I can be extremely wrong also.
Also, with Gintama, AC, Haikyuu!! getting a CP this week, there are essentially only 11 series getting ranked, taking away Kochikame and Jaco. So, I really don't think this Toc even matters :P

 

[Kaizou 10]

So, is it confirmed that bottom 6 is a fake? Or just people assuming that it is a fake one?

I thought they were useful to people not in america or who didnt browse tumblr or the official jump facebook page (though they space them out during the week I think?)

I wonder if when caught up with the artists of One Punch Man contribute.

Good point. It's minor, and not like I'm posting chapters or anything. I'll keep doing it then.

WSJ #43 (2013.9.21)

absent: OP

 

[Nast.J]

I actually like those comments. It shows how normal and human mangakas are because let's face it a bunch of people think they're inhumanly genius or whatever that only draw mangas, sleep and eat

Im pretty sure no one expected that Oda watched Reality TV or that Naoshi Komi is now fat

It gives a little wind of freshness out of all these TOCs, manga news and it breaks those mangakas stereotypes.

So yeah keep doing em.

 

[Shinuki no Reborn]

OP absent again...

 

[[Cross]]

So soon? Might Oda still be recovering? Either way, well wishes to him.

The last absence was in issue 35, really soon in fact, but it was already months since his disease, I believe it is just a scheduled absence that shows that editors take care about Oda health. One Piece is 50% of the Jump after all.
We already can predict cover and Lead CP for OP in issue 44.
