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

[Unok]

So much excuses.

I'm not getting triggered by Neverland. You think I'm getting triggered. Huge difference. Like I said, I don't care which is more popular or sales more. I never cared which series sales more (being MHA, BC, OP, Neverland, Kimetsu), I simply don't give a shit. Neverland can sell 5 millions per volume without anime. There can be 500 other series selling more than BC and don't have anime and I would still not care. BC can sell 9 million, I don't care. I enjoy what I read and don't care which series I read are more popular between each other.

What got me triggered is that he said 300k sales is below average. On the Earth I live, 300k per volume in Japan is not average. There are probably less than 30 titles that sell 300k+ per volume in Japan out of hundreds (or even thousands) titles in Japan right now. That is not "below average". And I asked you to show me that and you failed. You failed. Avoiding the question, avoiding the reason that I started this argument, doesn't make you right. You simply failed to provide what I asked and got in entirely different direction, trying to "trigger" me. Simply because you can't defend that, you try to trigger me XD That speaks a lot.

All this talk about manga we haven't discussed how financially successful the anime will be. Given how both are being handled by Aniplex I think Kimetsu has a shot at being a top seller if its online presence is as big as it is can also cross over to otaku/fujos supporting the anime since its not going to have the luxury of a daytime slot. Noitamina hasn't had a hit in years so its still up int the air with Neverland.

Snip

You don't care yet you're making a big deal out of people not thinking that a series that was shilled for 3 years and built up as the next Naruto only wound up selling a close to 300k on average is anything impressive? That your eschewed view isn't validated hence why you have to go full hyperbole saying that BC selling better than titles with much less print runs and circulation than it makes it "above average".

 

[Tarot]

Wait did someone actually say 300K sales is below average? Okay I've seen it all. I guess Seven Deadly Sins sales are just above average since its per volumes sales are 500k.

 

[Unok]

Continue talking about Neverland, continue avoiding showing me 300k is below average for Japan...

Attempting to trigger me again, I see XD Well you failed yet again. Btw just to point out, we don't know digital sales, and last year digital sales overtook physical sales in Japan. So sales are potentially much higher, yet 300k is actually still impressive. Only some delusional fans will try to make it like something bad and compare it to higher sellers to prove their point, but not to the hundreds of the lesser sellers

Here we go again...

Fervent prayers for Zigas rise this week. I wanted it and Jujutsu to become 2018s success stories.

When do you lot think the second PV for Hinomaru Zumo will be released?. Also, what are the chances of Production IG announcing a Robot X Laserbeam anime and a new season for Haikyuu in 2019?.

 

[Tarot]

Hinomaru Zumo anime will probably be worse than the third season of shokugeki no souma if they haven't even prepared any PV with actual animation yet.

isnt the haikyuu directed busy until mid 2019 on layton or something of that sort, i guess if haikyuu switched maybe.

Has Yuuna got one either? I know it had one with Yuuna sitting in a hot spring and that had minimal movement then there was another that had the main cast but I don't think that had much animation either.

 

[ChocoBar9]

I don't expect either Yuuna or Zumo to be well animated they feel like pure advertisements to go buy the manga than anything else. Not surprised that more hype has been pushed towards the upcoming anime adaptations of Neverland and Kimetsu than to either of them.

Do people interested in yuuna content really care about animation? People loved the pvs shown thus far and those had like VN type of scenes.

I dont think Zumo needs "well animation" they just stand in a ring. See something like Ballroom anime, where they basically just stand and do a circle in place. Nothing was that fancy or remarkable and people loved it.

Okay, like not to get involved but all your arguments make no sense because after 6 months of anime, all the color pages, high ranks, covers etc etc BC has gotten and still gets today, 300k is below average. It's the type of number Beelzebub got. That number was GREAT for Beelzebub because it was more comedy than action even though action was a big major 2nd genre for it but people remember Beelzebub for the comedy. BC however is an all out fantasy battle manga.

You gotta look at the genre and the magazine said manga is running to differentiate what is average and what isn't.
300k for a battle manga from an unknown magazine is FANTASTIC. 300k for a battle manga from WEEKLY SHONEN JUMP, is below average.

Considering one of the reasons I like Yuuna is the art style I care very much about the art style and animation of the anime.

perfect timing

I think RxL has bigger chances getting cancelled than getting an anime lol

 

[TyVip]

Yuuna isn't fun to read lately. It's like 20~30 chapters since the last plot chapter. Also, Kogarashi's power is getting stale and kinda boring.

 

[OtterBrigade]

I just realized, TPN wasn't announced with a key visual but a studio, KnY got both a studio and a visual and Kaguya got a visual but no studio despite all 3 being Shueisha properties with Aniplex producing and announced within a couple weeks of each other.

There is no studio announcement for TPN... We do not know who is producing Kaguya.

Edit: We don't know anything about TPN's staff.
