Shokugeki no Soma : 7 volumes : 3.200.000

 

[taqzer]

Wouldn't be surprised if Shokugeki no Souma ranks first or in the top 2 for the next two issues. The shokugeki was handled really well in these few chapters.

Toriko's low, I enjoyed the chapter that was ranked, albeit I enjoyed the following a deal more. Hoping it rises

 

[AeonCalcos]

They should serialize a boxing manga like that Haru oneshot from Next. I think the big news from WT is an OVA with 1 episode like that 2009 Toriko OVA.

Offtopic: Im looking for a oneshot(from jump or next???), but i cant remember the title. Can anyone help me? The one with robot,afros, and a little girl. Thanks.

Bleach Colour Page

[Txapeldun]

That can easily be the worst Kubo color page I've ever seen.

or even the best in a long time. great colour choices and nothing but unconventional expressions. Exudes personality, where it could have so easily been generic or moody, as is kubo's wont to do

Well, I like those almost empty color pages Kubo has made us grown acostumed to. For weirdness there's Jojo.
The fact that I don't give a damn about those chicks may make my opinion biased, but I find those faces very unappealing.

 

[Senkai]

The fact that Hunter x Hunter is coming back next issue will definitely calm my extreme displeasure of the Bleach color page.

Wait, No cover and lead color?! Oh Togashi, why am I not surprised?

Bleach Colour Page

Bleach must be ending in a few weeks as hes finally including such terminology as final battle. I wonder if well be seeing a new battle action supernatural fantasy series added.

I would have agreed if it were 4 CPs before.
But this CP is the most colorful CP Kubo has done in quite sometime.

That terminology was there ever since it entered the 2nd half of this final arc. :P

Nah, no way it is ending soon. He's been using those final battle terminology since more than a year.

Bleach and ending shouldn't be allowed in the same sentence. Whether you are a fan or not you have to admit the pacing is increadibly slow, far more so then any other manga in Jump. I give it at least 2 more years

I don't think you should put a lot of weight on "Final Battle" because I'm pretty sure that's what's been used to describe this arc as a whole. We've already known this was going to be the last arc, but I think we're a lot more than just a few weeks from an end.

Alright, lets see what this Sumo series has...

I hope it will not be the case of good idea - bad execution. I am sure martial arts, or even sumo is a topic for more mature manga, thus my memory fails me if I did run into one that focuses on Sumo wrestling ... maybe someone knows others with this theme?

As for the rankings, the ToC is more and more provoking me in starting Soma myself.

Do it. Besides One Piece and Nisekoi, it is the series I'm enjoying the most. I recommend.

If Im not mistaken such terminology is used since chapter 399 and we are at 581

I was sure back then it was Final War approaches, weve gone from Final War to Final Battle, so the end is nigh.

 

[diogolsoares]

Soma is really amazing, it's almost unbelieveble that a cooking manga (even if it got some elements of a battle manga) hit the top of Jump in this moment with OP in the climax of Dressrosa arc, KnB and it's final marcha between Seirin and Rakuzan, Naruto with Madara controlling the world and AC and its huge popularity. It continues to rise and surpass my expectations. As for the rest I think it's not a bad time to announce a WT OVA in production, Bleach should take at least one more year to end and finalmente Nisekoi is starting to move its plot. Also, I'm waiting to see what Togashi as in head for HxH future.

 

[101nemesis]

I am not liking the Sumo manga cover. I'm still incredibly intrigued as to how it would do.

I was sure back then it was Final War approaches, weve gone from Final War to Final Battle, so the end is nigh.

I've been thinking of ways to make such discussions more interesting. How about we have a little fun with this?

If it ends within this year, I'll put something that you pick as my signature for 2 months. And if Bleach lasts more than this year, I'll make you do the same.
Deal?

 

[vinceled]

I'm giving Bleach at least 2-3 more years until it ends. 50 Chapters would be way to short by the author standards...
