The new chapter of Neverland is the best chapter yet

The new chapter of Neverland is the best chapter yet

Indeed, best chapter so far. I hope it gets position 1 in toc.

Would be well deserved

 

[Halloween]

That was easily the best chapter of Neverland so far. I'm still trying to process everything.

I really hope it survives.

 

[savethecat]

Seriously curious why they're promoting the first volume if it's ranking so badly

 

[ElJin]

I never read SW, but i really hope it survives too.
I won't care if it get axed, I just... Like this kind of completely childlike gag manga, reminds me a lot of "Run! Daihatsu Tanto" from Bakuman

Same feeling. If t got axed I wouldn't care, but at the same time I don't mind it staying

What Jump series do you guys think have the best volume covers?

Tegami Bachi

Death Note

Had amazing covers that felt like pieces of art rather than a splash piece of characters from that specific volume.

I really like Bleach's honestly, especially since character designs are Kubo's specialty.

His covers were good for their simplicity but when he started using neon lighting and shading is when they turned bad also the fact that he would randomly waste covers on unrelated characters was also stupid like how Renji got the second to last cover when the volume wasn't even about him.

As great as MHA's art is, it's a bit sad the volume covers don't quite live up to it. The only volume covers that looked good is if it's focusing on a single character. Like #5 and, #11. Maybe Horikoshi might want to consider switching to Kubo's style?

He's gotten a lot better at them since the beginning and this goes for his coloring too. I like MHA covers for the same reason I like One Piece covers they're just brim to the rim with creativity from front to back with the adverts and having characters on the spine do the synopsis of the volume in character and the fact that the logo has a different cover every volume. I kinda want him to do the single character covers for special occasions like The Origin chapters that's why I love #5 and #8.

Hunter x Hunter

Really? I mean I love the manga but a lot of those covers are pretty meh and forgettable especially when Togashi gets lazy and just have characters in chibi form or a single character on it.

Looks alot better then the other one. So he just wrote 2 one shots for the same manga? For what purpose?

I suppose he really wants this to be a full series and went back to this once he improved his art and writing
