Fourth Kind - Fujiwara Takahiro

Yuragi's top 3 makes sense in the popularity poll... but big boobed drunk girl is more popular than Oboro? Why do big boobs always win? Japanese fandom needs to appreciate the other qualities of women besides their figure, everyone needs a girl like Oboro. Look how far she would go just to have kids with someone, that takes dedication.

 

[Nakura]

Finally, Oboro is on a cover.

 

[shoyoboyo]

All I care about is that Yuuna is the undisputed best girl. Thank you Japan for having good taste for once.

from godtier villain to cute girl. never change japan

 

[Scruffy8642]

That Yuuna cover does not disappoint.

 

[Tamil]

Sagiri is my fav. so good to see her in top 3

 

[G_I_A]

Yuuna is the best waifu, come on guys ;/

 

[Doughboy]

I mean everyone above is saying she is and nobody really disagreed. The best girls are Yuuna, Sagiri, and Oboro. Thinking of it, the main heroine being the best girl in a jump series is kind of rare. For example out of the Big 3 I would say only Rukia is best girl out of the main heroines, while Hinata and Robin would be the best girl from their respective series instead of Sakura and Nami.

Dr. Stone was briefly discussed on last night's (Japan Time) Ame talk. Neverland and Heroaca were also briefly mentioned.

 

[iceemperor]

Is that a really good thing? Could you please explain what this Ame talk is? I assume it's a popular TV show in Japan?

Ame Talk is a popular variety show in Japan featuring famous comedians like Kendo Kobayashi. They talk about a variety of topics including manga and anime and video games. Ame Talk is the reason Kingdom is the huge selling juggernaut it is today. Two seasons of anime couldn't do what 1 hour on Ame talk did.
On this latest episode, the cast were in a book store discussing their famous manga and during the part where they were asked about their favourite manga magazines, one of the comedians mentioned Dr. Stone being interesting in jump right now.

 

[G_I_A]

Just checked Marie's raws and yes, it's ending within the next chapters. 20/21 I would say.

Tremble WCS fans, you're next.

 

[vampire killer]

So we should expect another BHA boost from the tv show. Nice.

It was on the screen for a few seconds maximum. Its not enough screen time to get a boost. Dr. Stone and neverland are more likely to get boost as they were actually presented. Dr. Stone in particular was discussed for a good 5-17 minutes by everyone there.

I thought you would be sadder now that Hungry Marie is doomed because not so long ago you were like "VETERANS ARE GOD AND RECEIVE AUTOMATIC SUCCESS!". XD
~We should VENERATE VETERANS ~

 

[WyldViolet]

Hungry Marie is incredibly underrated and I'm sad it never really caught on. Another Illegal Rare sized hole in my heart.
It'd be neat to see Tamura over at Sunday if his next few serializations don't work out.

Wasn't that the same comedian who gave Hori an award last year for My Hero Academia?

Its a "personal favourite for the last year" kind of award. Kenkoba emphasized (comically) that that award has no prestige at all. Its entirely what he personally thought was good.

~We should VENERATE VETERANS ~

I never said it's good, automatically succcess or anything like that but yes, we should venerate veterans.

Dr. Stone is giving you a HUGE hello. If I were you I would be more worried about WCS than anything else because when this be canceled you won't have a single day of peace xD

Nah, it's not that great. It's a major step down from what Beelzebub was, it feels like Tamura doesn't even know what he's doing. The first volume cover shows that as it looks pretty subpar.
