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

Just saw a tweet about the Rugby World Cup, it is rolling, 1 month and 9 days until the Final. It is not that much of a time, only more or less 5 chapters so I don't think Beast Children is going anywhere until there. What do you guys think?

I think this will largely depend on how well Japan does in the RWC. If it does well the series might if not I guess we'll see it go pretty quickly.

I have this problem that I really enjoy reading Jujutsu Kaisen but at the same time I can't even remember who some characters are... This is one of them.

 

[Franz]

An anime transposition could be helpful.

Japan is 10th in the world, surprisingly good, I thought they didn't have tradition in the sport, but again, I don't know anything at all about rugby. XD
So they have a good chance to go far at home.

To be fair, this character has only had one appearance in the series so far. Not remembering him is understandable.

I mean dunno, they're in the same group as Ireland (first in the world) and Scotland who's 7 right in front of France in the IRB ranking so winning against these two teams is gonna be really hard for them. Plus if they don't get enough points they might be pitted against a strong team for the next round so I think their chances of winning are really dim. It's like the fact that even while being 8th in the IRB ranking France is never gonna win this thing.

That's where the home advantage comes into play. You never know what a home team can do. South Korea in the 2002 World Cup for example.
Let's see...
I never thought that the performance of Japan in rugby could influence the survival of a Jump series. Never thought we would be talking about this here. XD

Well it's the same for sport series and international tournaments. For Japan, the Japanese team doing well means more people might get interested in the sports and for some it can mean checking the comics out on that sport so the team doing well in rugby could mean free promotion for Shueisha.
But yeah I guess the home advantage could play in favour of Japan but I don't think they can beat Ireland except if they can prove faster and stronger but dunno if that's the case for the Japanese team.

 

[Mr.Fujimaster]

All options deserve a remake.
But for me, Slam Dunk is what I most want to see happen.
I always wanted to watch the match against Sannoh in anime.
Slam Dunk deserves.

I'm asking this question in terms of current Jump because the question was addressed in terms of historical Jump and the answer wasn't easy.

From current roster, who would you say is the most powerful character?

For me, it would be Gojou Satoru (Jujutsu Kaisen), followed by maybe All Might (and having in consideration that All Might hasn't been at his 100% in any moment of MHA manga).

Satoru in particular could maybe be in the top-10 of most powerful characters in Shonen Jump history.

We will see on Saturday when Japan takes on Ireland. Even if they don't win I think they still can qualify.

What makes you say that? Remember, be cognizant of spoilers. Also, in Samurai 8, we have confirmed moon/planet/star destroyers.

In Black Clover there's several people that are faster than light. I don't recall anyone in JJK or MHA having similar feats. Granted, I'm not caught up on either.

i would say makima from chainsawman but we dont know how many or what contracts she deal with. but i agree on gojou being the #1, that man has endless stamina cuz he prob can ?reverse technique his stamina too?.

 

[vinceled]

Chainsawman is gonna sell like hotcakes what's with the massive cliffhanger at the end of volume 3.
Most powerful character for me is Senkuu, can't beat the power of brains.

Yeah they can if they have enough points compared to the other teams and it'll also depend on how well the other teams do too.
