Mag Talk Weekly Shonen Jump [2018] - Discussion and TOC Talk

Black Clover isn't even late night. It airs 6:25 PM. Same time period as Yu-gi-oh, Yokai Watch and Puzzle & Dragons http://www.tv-tokyo.co.jp.e.ck.hp.transer.com/index/genre/anime.html

I'm aware of that however that doesn't mean that otaku don't watch the show just like it doesn't mean otaku don't watch OP or DBS or whatnot despite their daytime timeslots. These boxsets however are aimed at them and the tiny fraction of kids and parents who watched it with their kids and decided to buy the BDs for both to enjoy after its done airing.

You dont even need to watch PAD as it airs since they do a great job adding it to youtube for a week, if you dont mind a two day wait. Wish TV Tokyo did that for all their animes.

TV Tokyo is a great network imo, was surprised how many famous titles they broadcasted. If BC ever got to that status maybe they'll do an hour special like they did for Shippuden's first two episodes. Huge if, but can't rule it out if the anime gets extended and is profitable in areas we aren't aware of.

I don't even think its doing well ratings wise either. It got people to buy the manga but these boosts tend to not last long. The only thing left is the card game and upcoming PS4 game at this point.

Darn I guess HeroAca and BLack Clover missed the cut off for inclusion. Haikyuu!! is amazing

 

[Nemesis]

I'm also not a fan of RxL, but I don't think it's going anywhere until WSJ is sure that it has found some new stuff that will sell well. RxL is still the best selling series between it, WNL, and Dr. Stone (which is somehow the lowest despite an insane amount of pushing).

I thought that RxL was the worst selling between the three, even if they're not that distant from each other.

Between what I put yesterday of main manga featured in 00s and 10s exhibitions and this...

Prince of Tennis, Kuroko no Basket and Haikyuu sure are the Big 3 of Jump spokon of this century. Shueisha is giving them all time the very same status as legendary icons like Hokuto no Ken or Slam Dunk.

EDIT:

I'm still surprised Kuroko, Prince of Tennis, Assasination Classroom, and Kochikame were picked over Toriko and Gintama for getting main halls (Toriko and Gintama will be in the exhibition, but sharing the ''00s'' hall with rest of Jump titles which didn't get main hall).

The ratings are decent. It's holding up well against PriPara and doing a bit better than another show (forgot the name) that aired in its slot previously.

Ratings: 2/26 - 3/4
PriPara → Black Clover
* 0.9 → * 0.7
* 1.3 → * 1.0
* 0.4 → * 0.3

Ratings: 3/5 - 3/11
PriPara → Black Clover
* 0.5 → * 1.0
* 1.3 → * 1.0
* 0.9 → * 3.0

Ratings: 3/12 - 3/19
PriPara → Black Clover
* 0.8 → * 0.7
* 2.2 → * 0.6
* 0.3 → * 0.8

Ratings: 3/20 - 3/26
PriPara → Black Clover
* 0.8 → * 1.3
* 1.0 → * 0.9
* 1.2 → * 1.7

Edit: It'll be interesting to see how the ratings will be affected now that Gundam Build Divers has replaced PriPara.

I could be wrong, but I was pretty sure it went RxL > WNL > Dr. Stone when it came to volume sales. I think you're right about the distance not being too different between them, but it is still significant enough that it makes a noticeable difference.

WNL overtook Robot in the latest volume I believe.

It'll be a stretch to call those ratings "decent" but its par the core for the timeslot these days.

WNL overtook Robot in the latest volume I believe.

Not yet, it only sold 72k before falling off from the chart. Robot manage to get to 80k+ before falling off

RxL > WNL > Dr. Stone is correct

Thanks. Could have sworn the last volume of WNL sold 80k.

Any early reviews on Build King yet?

Also, this week's One Piece chapter was one of the best chapters and ends to an arc from Oda.

 

[Mankichi Togawa]

The two pics from Build King posted yesterday reminded me a lot to current One Piece aesthetics

hasnt his art always been criticized for one piece esque, they looked so similar in crossovers even

nah fake news. That would be early Hiro Mashima.

 

[Tamil]

That's because they're both goofy/exaggerated artstyles but I can easily distinguish both.

Honestly, from the first preview we ever got of Build King it gave me early Dragon Ball vibes. Now with the spoilers it's reminding of TTGL/mecha

 

[Tamil]

A glutton MC(?). Are those Puffer whales? The one shot is out in Japan

 

[savethecat]

Interested in Jujutsu’s future rankings. Personally I enjoyed it enough to see it stick around. And imo the quality didn’t necessarily improve or decrease since the first chapter(based on the 3 Viz chapters that is)

 

[MangAniMY]

Cast for Nisekoi Live-Action Film revealed,
Kento Nakajima as Raku Ichijō
Ayami Nakajo as Chitoge Kirisaki
