Mag Talk Weekly Shonen Jump [2017] - Discussion and TOC Talk

Yeah, ignore Nisekoi, Haikyu, Kuroko, Saiki and BNHA conveniently, seasonal is the way to go, no padding out and no dumb filler, these are all recent WSJ series. And Food wars's anime is better off than Black Clover's and whatever Toei and Pierrot made regarding WSJ in recent years for the most part, at least Food Wars isn't a filler fiesta.

But food wars is a boring adaptation, Nisekoi had problematic distractions and as you see unlike Kuroko it was never optioned for an additional season so there was clearly some aspect of Nisekoi that didnt deliver to the financers suggesting the seasonal is not the way to go. Saiki probably wont get an s3, wasnt the manga writer already shocked that it even got an anime in the first place and a game too. HeroAca seems doubtful it will get an s4 anytime soon. Haikyuu s4 seems to still be in the vaporware stage.

If seasonal is the future, why isnt Boruto a season anime?

MHA has exactly one filler episode.

Yes, not half of the show. You get what I meant. I knew someone would bring that up.

On a lighter note regarding the topic of anime adaptation and manga boost, why do many people (more specifically many Japanese) like to spoil their anime watching by rushing out to buy manga volumes while the anime is being aired? I know one episode per week is too slow too few, but if I get into a series via its anime first, I personally would prefer to enjoy my anime spoiler-free.

Would you wait for the anime to finish before picking up the manga to avoid later episiodes' spoilers?

Really depends on the series, what mood I'm in and things like that. I don't really have one particular way of approaching things.

Not having jump this week is killing me

 

[Doughboy]

Don’t worry about it, Dark Continent arc will back on tap, we’ll get Jump Festa stuff leaked this weekend, plus the topic of anime adaptions led to fruitful debate.

 

[Avok]

Jump Fest stuff should make up for the slow week. Hopefully good things come out of it.

Kinnikuman and Black Cat needs reboots

Rising Impact needs an adaption

I completely agree with Kinnikuman. There's so much to adapt that I'm curious why it never got picked up again. Correct me if I'm wrong but I believe Nisei had an anime original ending too so I don't know where they'll go (adapt from the start sounds ridiculous but it could introduce the series to the younger generation).

I would love if Kinnikuman was done in a retro style too, similar to this CM

Toei also did OP/ED pachinko remakes recently so I hope they go back to Kinnikuman one day. That's one of the few Toei titles I would look forward to.

 

[Franz]

Nah Kinnikuman doesn't need a reboot

Jump Festa 2018 large poster outside the event area

Shuiesha would makes some money if they print those out every year and sell as posters.

Or at least make a digital poster so people could print them out if they want to.

 

[Tanzo]

I didn't know this was a thing, and don't know why it is
Some SW#1 cosplay for ya

 

[Nakura]

Surprised to see Ruroni Kenshin still on the poster.

Looking forward to all the Jump Festa stuff. MHA's event is the first one so I'll probably stay up late tonight to see any PVs that will be shown for it.

 

[TM2]

Jump Festa 2017 just for comparison's sake.

Jump SuperPush... And it has what you would expect there, the new upcoming manga from the magazine. (and of course Black Clover) :thinking:

With this SuperPush Shueisha admits that SW#1 isn't even worth pushing.

Does anyone have a QR reader on their phone to see what the QR code leads to?

Here's the Jump Superpush website

http://www.shonenjump.com/jsuperpush/

 

[ShenGao]

It leads to the same Super Push site as the link under it.

 

[cody]

I checked the QR code myself with an online website, it leads to the website, so nothing new to see there.

Here's the main picture from the website

So looking at the Google Translated page, you need to solve a little puzzle and you'll get a wallpaper for it. You need to find some keywords after reading the first chapter for each series?
