Mag Talk Weekly Shonen Jump [2019] - Discussion and TOC Talk

[Konja9]

I think that's a valid argument, but there's def a break. Like, if something sells 7k on Vol 1, it might be worth keeping it around a bit longer to see if it manages anything, but, if it sells 2k and people have to reminded that it even exists (which a friend of mine says was happening with Taisei), then it's prrrrroooobably not worth the effort.

Yeah. If the TOC and sales of a manga are pretty bad, they won't mantain this manga for a long time. It is what happened with Saiyuki (they don't wait to see if Yozakura or Mitama will be succesful).

However, the axe still doesn't happen so soon as before, probably because the magazine would be too small. At least, they need to put in the magazine some new mangas they have expectatives to replaces the empty spots.

Okay, they're definitely being canceled now. Not even surviving two days on Shoseki is just sad.

Strong drops for Day 2 seem to be the conventional for Kamio Yui.

Kamio Yui Vol 1 ranking for Day 1 was #67, while Day 2 was #113

Kamio Yui Vol 2 ranking for Day 1 was #46, while Day 2 was #104

Now, Double Taisei Vol 1 and Beast Children Vol 1 ranking in Day 2 are much worse than Saigo no Saiyuki Vol 1 in Day 2 (#300)

At this rate Fukuda isn't even going to get a third chance. To Makai he shall go.

Quick question, where does Beast Children stack up compared to infamous bombs like Seiji Tanaka and Tokyo Wonder Boys?

@Buranchi here is my gift for you


Also, this happened when 1986 was ending and it became a legendary opening:

Expected, but somewhat worrying. They’ll be caught up with the manga in no time at this rate. I don’t feel like they’ll stop it, so I wonder if they’ll pull a typical Pierrot and do like 50 eps of straight filler lol.

I think it was obvious that they would continue to cover the entire arc of reincarnation, it made no sense to close the matter in the middle is to leave the matter without conclusion for who know how much.

At this point there are two options:

1) They go ahead with the fillers maybe by inserting one or more mini arc between the period from chapter 216 to 217 since they spend several days in the manga (quite probable)

2) They stop the anime in chapter 214 (ie

Spoiler

Julius' return among the living

and leave everything with a sense of conclusion.

TSS doing better than what i expected, will not be surprised if gets a second chance with everything already said in the last pages about the current situation

I'm betting on it lasting until the end of the year (with Taisei and Beast ending in a couple issues), but no longer than that.

Talking about early cancellation, here is the infamous U19 club.

Yoooo that's a good one lmao

I guarentee you all. TSS & yui kamio are the that's gonna survive from their batch. BC & taisei are gonna get axed

So they have redesigned Samurai 8's MC a bit. I wonder if that was an editor's suggestion, or planned.

Guys, no talking about chapters before the official release.

 

[westabyss]

Kishimoto is really writing the series thinking of volumes instead of chapters. It will not be easy to recover from the bad initial reception of S8 but if it keeps this level of quality, people will eventually return to it through WOM. Its still not really there yet but at least its average now with potential.

Seems Yozakura has gotten a thread on 5ch with people talking about how they find the series interesting. Obviously not a hard barometer of anything, but it's evidence of a potential fanbase growing already.

 

[Leoat12]

The magazine is with around the same number of series it always had and it was never a impediment to cancel in mass when needed, it just depends on the amount of series they have to start, if they have 4 series, 4 series can be axed in one go without any problems.
The only I think is going to survive until the end of the year is Yui Kamio, the rest is probably going to get axed, not including Yozakura and Mitama for now although I think the former can be a great series and the latter be axed very quickly.

 

[4Eyes]

It's not like the current batch is any better. Jump is just not as ruthless as they were one year ago. Maybe they can't afford to axe new manga left and right any more, due to many established series ending?

I find it funny how looking back, U19 seems more amusing than at least 5 series running in the magazine right now. This doesn't feel right...
