Kimetsu no Yaiba CP

I could get used to this.

 

[Caiops]

So, if they win, are they going to face Fukurodani in the finals?

 

[savethecat]

Any scans for the new series yet

 

[xAsum0x]

If it aint on marumaru or netabare.city then no

 

[ElJin]

Kimetsu no Yaiba CP

..............what

 

[Tamil]

Kinoko Nasu (creator of the Fate Series, Kara no Kyoukai, Tsukihime) recommends you to read Kimetsu no Yaiba

That's KnY 3rd recommendation

JUMP
SUPER
PUSH

Those recommendations don't really do much for it's sales. We've been over this and it's clear that KnY's growth is thanks to Goutouge's improvement as a mangaka. Her writing/art has improved a lot since the first few arcs.

Although I hope she hops off this whole introduce a new pillar every arc and have them go through a near death (or death) experience. I saw the spoiler for the recent chapter and we're introduced to another new pillar. What she does with this new pillar is what I'm interested with. I hope it's something new.

I thought they had posted here that the sales grew after Togashi recommendation and... AAAAHHH YOU KNOW WHAT? FORGET IT! I'M TIRED OF THIS.

Again, Goutouge is really a "she"?

Jump GIGA should make Posuka draw the cover of Kimetsu and Goutouge draw the cover of Neverland, as they did with MHA x BC.
The way they trace the lines is similar.

 

[ChocoBar9]

Yeah let's just nip this in the bud and say that it was because it got better.

 

[WyldViolet]

Regardless of Gotoge's gender, it feels extremely sexist when certain same users always have to "ask" when Gotoge is referred to with a certain pronoun.

 

[De La Croissant]

I (an ESL) just asked because I want to write correctly when I talk about the author.

 

[shoyoboyo]

I don't really see the problem. It's not like we have any concrete evidence. And no, something some random Anon on 2ch said doesn't count.

 

[Tamil]

She is a female guys. I can confirm that.

I'm married to her. You just gotta take my word

 

[shoyoboyo]

I am a little creeped out by that, but I've heard worse I guess.

 

[Leoat12]

Another "author's gender" conversation? I bet that the next topic will be "the importance of female protagonists in Jump" or people would just jump to Black Clover again. XD

 

[cody]

Here's a nice Jump Shop banner, or whatever these are called, it seems to be new. Interesting to see how they still put Gintama on it, I guess it'll stick around for a little longer™. Seeing Emma and Tanjirou on there makes me happy.

 

[Leoat12]

Well, they are the best-selling mangas in the Jump right now, for better or worse, Jump doesn't have much choice.

 

[shoyoboyo]

Shokugeki still sells more, but yeah, it's nice seeing Tanjiro up there with the big boys.
