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

So in your opinions, when does Kimetsu starts blowing up? I read about 20 chapters a while back and it's average imo lol

About chapter 25-30 I'd say. When you see one blond guy who is afraid and one guy with a pig head, then when the manga starts blowing up, and it truly becomes one of best Jump titles.

PD: No info about what will be cover of next number?

20 chapters then you are at the start of the Drum House arc. Read it a little more, around chapter 25/30 and from there to chapter 44 is Natagumo Mountain arc/Spider Family arc which is widely considered as the turning point of the series and as I know a lot of people start reading the manga after that arc (you are in the middle of volume 3 and the manga sales increases A LOT after this volume). So please yes, give it another chance. But don't expect a thrill plot or massive world-building like TPN or MHA. The strength of this manga lies on its characters, especially the MC Tanjirou.

 

[Mankichi Togawa]

HELL YES.

Hero Academia is surprisingly one of Jump titles with less covers. What would be the reason for it getting the cover? 4th anniversary was in August, wasn't it?

Not that I don't like it but isn't MHA already have cover 3 month ago?

Still, it has way less Jump covers than Haikyuu or Black Clover. Hero Academia deserves some covers.

Taijirou is my favorite Shonen Jump MC. He's so kind and sweet, and has a very good personality. Zenitsu and Inosuke are very funny companions, and Nezuko is so cute.

If Kimetsu gets better around chapter 25 then I'm worried about the anime. Most of Jump's recent adaptations have been paced really slowly. MHA season 1 adapted 18-20 chapters in 12 episode. Black Clover took 18 episodes to adapt 20 chapters.

Hopefully the MHA cover comes with a lead color of the top 10 heroes.

Soma and Haikyuu are the exception if that's what you're thinking about. I had battleshonen from Jump in my mind.

 

[Mankichi Togawa]

I'd say, right now in Shonen Jump, Kimetsu no Yaiba is the most similar title to HunterxHunter.

Also, wondering if anime will reach the Train Arc.

Aniki, I want to see you soon

I'm so keen to get my hands on the TPN anime. Not surprised it got an adaptation though. It's been the most popular new manga in japan since 2016 anyway. It was always a question of when, not if.

KnY also sounds like it's worth picking up. I'll look into it when I have time.

So little fanfare around kimetsu's anime.

Well, for good or bad, Kimetsu is one of less known Jump titles. Also, Viz doesn't help: Kimetsu is the only veteran together with Hinomaru (the other forgotten title), Gintama, and Haikyuu which isn't in Viz roster.

Still in Japan, is very popular. Even more than Neverland if I've read well.

 

[shoyoboyo]

Nah, Neverland wouldn't be selling 4 times as much if Kimetsu was more popular.
