So I was looking through the black clover sub-reddit and I stumbled across this image of the background scene of the early parts of Black Clover. It looks really good in my opinion hope this level of quality is sustainable. Original post by asterik_blue over on the Black Clover sub-reddit

I'm going rein in my hopes a bit since it is just a still background.
But I'm actually really glad that they're not phoning it in.

This image is from the Pierrot's anime? Please, can you send me the link?

Straight from the series site.

The Promised Neverland : 4 volumes : 1 200 000.

Shueisha really needs the Black Clover anime to be a success. Togashi is back selling volumes. But I think you will see a stark decline in sales for One Piece soon. The quality of the series has been abysmal the past few arcs, probably the whole New World. But Whole Cake Island has taken it it to another level. Togashi is going to show Oda how to do a new world arc.

Nah, for the most part, the New World arcs have been progressively getting better. Fishman Island had trash villains whose sole purpose was to show how strong the Strawhats became after the time skip. Punk Hazard was okay. Dressrosa was long as hell, but a lot happened and the characters involved were interesting. Zou was a nice change of pace as a transitional arc. The Big Mom arc isn't amazing, but it's definitely better than the first two time skip arcs. Like it or not, One Piece and it's monumental sales aren't going anywhere anytime soon.

9 New Jump+ Series

 

[Scruffy8642]

Wait, on top of the 5-6 new ones in August? That's kind of crazy.

 

[TyVip]

So many series in Jump+ is a blessing and a curse. Hopefully the authors will find audiences for their series.

Defining one arc by the level of strength of the villains. :

Some would say that a good story relies on the strength of its villain/conflict

I know yall like to track MHA tv ratings it was no. 10 this week

Everything is down tho and it only has 2.7

 

[vampire killer]

Dont worry next week should see big increase

 

[Leoat12]

Black Clover replacing the sales of a supposedly decrease sales on One Piece will be the funniest thing I will read today, probably, so congrats. XD
1) Black Clover will never sell enough to replace 1/10 of One Piece sales
2) One Piece sales will not decrease anytime soon, Black Clover will end before it happens.

Bonus: Whole Cake arc has been great, I don't know what you are talking about.

....its a literal still image for the webpage

 

[Shinji Hirako]

For me Whole Cake Island is the worst arc so far in the New World. Perhaps only the Fishman Island arc can stop that from being true. I have never seen such blatant plot convenience in terms of how it was handled and how frequently it has appeared in any other arc in One Piece.

 

[Koi Kage]

So from the information that has been given the anime will at least reach the Clover Kingdom Invasion arc, and honestly if the anime is done as a seasonal one that's actually a good place to end off on chapter 36.

 

[Scruffy8642]

There's no way Pierrot is going to do 1 cour of BC... They wouldn't have waited so long if that was the case. I think it's safe to assume we can expect 2 cours minimum.

 

[Mr.Fujimaster]

Dr. Stone's new chapter was simply AWESOME.
That explains his position on TOC.
I have a slight impression that Dr. Stone will sell more than Neverland when the anime is released in 2018 or 2019.
And it will still become one of the pillars of Jump.
Inagaki and Boichi are amazing mangakas.

About Shaman King, an Argentine publisher named Ivrea said one of the reasons that Shaman King is in a hiatus in Argentina is why Shueisha lost the copyrights of the work, which are now with the author.
Can anyone tell me if this is true?

The chapter being ranked in the TOC is the 16th chapter from 8 weeks ago

The importance of the newly released chapter (in that case, chapter 23) also helps to classify the manga into TOC.
