Ole Golazo first chapter was pretty good. Excited to see how the games play out with the focus on strategy.

Congrats on discovering that and welcome to the club...not that it was *that* hidden but its redundant and rather troublesome posting this version

Troublesome? Says the person who reposted it last week on tieba and leaks a lot of digital japanese mags for what (that is a real crime)? For the record, it is not hidden, I posted the exact source last week

So do I. I really do hope it knocks it out of the park. The series has a lot of potential.

The artbook looks very nice, I think I'll buy it to support the mangka, at least until Viz will release print edition, if ever.

For comparison, 双星の陰陽師 (Sousei no Onmyouji) sells 60k in 4 days and 90k in 2 weeks

And 花のち晴れ 花男ＮｅｘｔＳｅａｓｏｎ (Boys over Flowers) sells 35k in 3 days and 70k in 2 weeks

I think these rankings are updated multiple times a day

 

[Bigivelfhq]

So
- Black Clover has 2M copies in print by volume 9(222,222 copies per volume)
- Yuragi 700k copies in print by volume 4(175,000 copies per volume)
- Kinnikuman entire series has 75M copies in print

right?

Truly BLack Clover, look at how they look at each other. I cant wait for 2017 to watch this visual masterpiece.

 

[Mammo]

Yuno still look like a girl

that being said, they should've skipped the first chapter to avoid Naruto comparisons

the demon destroying the city look like the Ninetales scene but with a different skin

That's exactly why they should do the first chapter. Too hook up Naruto fans.

Also is it just me or Naruto and Black Clover are the "only" jump "hits" where the protagonist is not a "japanese" but a foreigner?

I request a moment of you guys. How ecchi is Yuragi? I'm considering reading it since it releases because I'm fan of Miura Tadahiro and Koisome Momiji, but you guys gave the series a really "cute" nickname (Ghost Tits) and as you may know, I just tolerate a certain degree of ecchi. So? How ecchi is it? It is in the same degree as Koisome Momiji?
Ecchi series haven't done good in the magazine for a while so I think that it can't be that bad, but I'm asking you guys.

Dat CG at the beginning. The ova look amazing. Next year will be the year of Bc for sure.

Goku? Luffy? I mean, there's probably a lot of examples but i don't really understand the criteria.

Well,it`s not as "ecchi" as To Love-Ru Darkness (yet), but probably more that the regular To Love-Ru. Don`t know how Koisome Momiji is, since I think I read about a one chapter a few years ago, but it can`t be more extreme than Darkness.

could have sworn Naruto was Japanese.
And Luffy from One Piece is suppose to be Brazilian according to Oda(obviously Brazil doesn't exist in OP world, but if he was of any realistic nationality he'd be Brazilian.)

I'm sorry I think I did not make myself clear... Let me rephrase it... Despite the name and what the author says about the "nationality"... I mean the physiognomy of the protagonist of famous battle fantasy shounen: Luffy, Goku, Gon, Ichigo, Seiya (he is NOT greek, he is japanese), Tsuna... (the jojo and toriko exceptions are well pointed). They are clearly japanese.

But Naruto and Asta are clearly NOT (light hair and blue/green eyes). They are clearly a "foreigner". a "gaijin".

In Naruto this is particularly evident because of the antithesis of a foreigner (hated by all and disrespectful at the beginning) against the "loved by all, tradicional family spoiled kid" that is Sasuke (clearly a japanese).

Black Clover follows the same idea (despite coming from poverty) Yuno looks much more "japanese" than Asta (that is also clearly a foreigner).

Anyways, I think now I made my point.

If KnY doesn't sell at least 30k in 3 days I blame shueisha for not printing enough
