Authors serialized in Jump GIGA and their works from right to left:


Tokyo Kigo Tanpou - Shiibashi Hiroshi
Blue Archipelago Sapporo・September
Story by Tsukuda Yuuto, Art by Hirakei
Shinigiwa - Fukuda Kentarou
Ginatashiki - Miki Yuu
Flower Samurai of Sahara - Shibata Yuusaku
Gensou Kojikiden (Illusionary Commentary on the Kojiki) - Kyou Kazuro

Man, I really thought Shibata Yuusaku would serialized Zippo.....

Blue Archipelago Sapporo・September
Story by Tsukuda Yuuto, Art by Hirakei

Why does Tsukuda Yuuto have another serialization? He has his hands full on SnS already.

 

[UFOCat]

Is Miki Yuu the guy that did that one battle manga about the momtaro legend, but like modern day, and it was called "Peach" something? Wish I could remember the name.

While the story of Zippo wasn't really anything original, I really did like the robot designs. I wish Shibata Yuusaku stayed with Zippo because those robot designs where really cool! I'm more surprised that he's doing another samurai story. Hopefully he's learned something since Yokemono.

No, he did Cyborg Roggy. You are thinking of Peach Pluck and the guy that did Garden. No idea if or when he will be serialized, think he is a tremendous talent.

So in earnest, Jump Giga begins in September?

 

[UFOCat]

Yeah, your right, Yuu Miki did Cyborg Roggy. Dang, his art has changed so much I didn't even recognize it.

i think its just a one shot

 

[chrisbj]

Assassination Classroom has hit 24 million copies in print

So Tokyo Ghoul and Haikyuu should be somewhere around that as well.....

 

[KageTrigger]

I would like to read Shibashi Hroshi's the most. I liked both Nurarihyon no Mago and Illegal Rare.

 

[RafaFedKilla]

Yeah, your right, Yuu Miki did Cyborg Roggy. Dang, his art has changed so much I didn't even recognize it.

Oh, is there a preview pic available?

 

[UFOCat]

If you look on the previous page you can see his art there.

 

[Yaiba]

According Anime News Network are series.

 

[Xzone]

Don't see the Yugari-san volume , it because it will have more chapter in the volume than Kimetsu , problem with the stock , don't want release it with BnH and other or simple only it wasn't shown

According Anime News Network are series.

I don't think all will be series,at least shiibashi and tsukuda I feels more a One shot than a series.
And I don't think they will have more than 3 volume.

Thanks, it wasn't showing up for me earlier. Yeah, it does look like his art changed a bit. I didn't get to read the oneshot he did in NEXT from last fall. I think it's hard to launch so many series at once, and to determine which are successful. It seems with the recent magazine launches, there is only one breakout series and the rest struggle to survive.

Don't see the Yugari-san volume , it because it will have more chapter in the volume than Kimetsu , problem with the stock , don't want release it with BnH and other or simple only it wasn't shown

It's still scheduled for June 3rd, the cover just has not been revealed yet.

How well does Black Clover sell? I can't say I'm a fan, nor can I say I hate it, but it really baffles me that it's stayed around for this long while other series with the exact same premise get cancelled after two volumes (closes series that comes to mind is Sensei no Baruji). I'm more or less curious to see how it sells because the ratings on Amazon Japan never go above 3 1/2 stars, a lot of people on here complain about it, and while I know the people on here aren't the people who buy Jump and vote every week, surely the Japanese must share the same sentiments. Black Clover is just an enigma to me. It's just hard to comprehend it's survival let alone it's success.

Ill post the data for all six volumes so far.

The far right column is the volume number. These are the numbers recorded from oricon and from POS that are added gradually. The column titled "累計 (日数)" is the total number of copies sold for the data we have. Its selling rather well for a series this new.

 

[Mammo]

BLack Clover is popular for the same reason McDonald's is popular

cheap, easy to reach, easy to consume, looks good despite being bad for you......

 

[ryozen]

IMO Black Clover doesn't sell good enough given the fact that it's receiving almost the same treatment that, for example, Shokugeki no Soma got by Jump until its chapter 63

Spoiler

SnS: 3 covers, 14 color pages
BC: 3 covers, 16 color pages

And BC's volume 7 needed two weeks (14 days) to sell 118k while Soma's volume 7 sold 247k in 9 days... At this point BC should be selling 200k.

The are mangaka who professionally handle more than one serialization at a time. And Tsukuda is doing only the writing ever since his own drawn Shonen Shikku was cancelled.
