>another arena fighter

give me a rpg, give me a beat em up, give me an open world
give me anything but another one of those

Just wait until they announce the Kimetsu arena fighter, and after that the Jujutsu arena fighter, followed by the double announcement of the Samurai 8 and Chainsaw Man arena fighter.

Arena fighters just sell man that's just the fact of life. Even Xenoverse sold more copies than DBFZ despite the latter being vastly more well received most casuals don't care due to the roster limitations and not being good a fighting games. Jujuts would actually benefit from a arena fighter given how its mechanics involve spatial manipulation and the only person who can possibly do Chainsaw Man justice is Suda 51.

last year we had Fist of the North Star: Lost Paradise

it had the same gameplay of the Yakuza franchise and it's one of my favorite 2018 games, not just anime games but generally
it was legitimately fantastic, dunno why wouldn't they try collaborating with those guys for other ips


speaking of Chainsawman game, it should be done by however does the Splatterhose games which i think is Bandai

 

[Ryuusei]

looking at this list again, some of these titles are first month sales and others are first week sales
which makes it even weirder

also, Ryuusei are you original maker of this list? Marecllo something?

MangAni explained it later. Even though in the title it's stated that those are first month sales, some of those are estimates based on weekly and some are based on daily rankings, so the same criteria wasn't used for all series.

Also, nope. I just translated the list.

 

[pamuchi]

I don't think KnY would work as an arena fighter game. I see it more like Dynasty warriors. Characters vs demons.

last year we had Fist of the North Star: Lost Paradise

Which was just a glorified DLC sold as a full retail game. Definitely a breath of fresh air in terms of anime tie-ins which are always fighters and cheaply made it was good to see them actually use the engine for something ingenious like an open world FotNS too bad it was so short. Given the success of Conan Exiles in Japan they should be making Lost Paradise into a sister franchise from Yakuza than whatever the hell Judgement was.

The reason Naruto didn't get the cover of Jump for its final chapter is because, as explained by the "How Jump is Made" graphic novel from 2015, is that Jump was looking towards "THE FUTURE", as it put it. Rather than dwelling on Naruto's legacy, Shueisha felt it was more efficient to look at what comes next, hence Assassination Classroom got the continued push.

Yeah, nothing says "we are looking towards "THE FUTURE"" like giving the ending series 2 chapters with 1 full color chapter in that issue, multiple covers and color pages leading up to the last chapter and starting a sequel manga in the same magazine with a name so similar to the original solely to capitalize on the original's popularity.

just think of how easy other ip could be adapted into the Yakuza gameplay model, like instead of arena fighter #538338
Deku replace Kiryu, mc run around town to help people
Bakugo replace Majima, the rival, run around town stalking Deku and trying to pick up fights
All Might replace Komaki, the mentor, unlocks Deku's special moves
Kirishima replace Majima's goon, calls Deku every now and then to warn him about Bakugo
main quest replace some yakuza thugs, with some villain thugs
side quests replace helping the Kamurocho residents with helping UA students
minigames replace them with heroaca games, cavalry battle, obstacle course, licenses exam etc
karaoke song get replaced with anime openings

and voilà here's your game

than whatever the hell Judgement was.

but muh Kimutaku wank fest

 

[ElJin]

Wait, I'm a little bit confused here. Is there a Chainsaw game being developed?

 

[OtterBrigade]

no just talking about what they want

 

[Caiops]

I want The Promised Neverland game developed by Naughty Dog.

 

[CrOF]

I just want the Jump Ore Collection reboot to finally come out.

 

[IzayaDLL]

I want The Promised Neverland game developed by Naughty Dog.

No, thanks. I don't want another walking simulator.

 

[Shinuki no Reborn]

I'm actually impressed with Nakano's incompetence, in the issue that will be released in the same week than the first 2 Samurai 8 volumes, they not only will not give a cover + lead cp but not even a normal color page? instead of that they're gonna advertise the first volume of 2.5D Seduction from Plus? lol Maybe for some strange reason they're holding a color page for #46 but you would think that they would really want to promote the first volumes of a new Kishimoto work in the magazine...

Who would’ve thought Ikezawa would be back in the main magazine so soon .

And with what seems to be finally a success but on Plus, how ironic for Shonen Jump :P

 

[RingoRoadOnceMore]

I want an Act-Age arena fighter.

No creo que KnY funcione como un juego de lucha de arena. Lo veo más como guerreros de la dinastía. Personajes vs demonios.[/ CITAR]


ehhh Samurai Shodown says hello, the problem is bandai, they only look for mediocre studies for the development of video games and, therefore, shorten the cost of production, throwing any example of bash of the game of My hero, jumping force, etc.

 

[Shinuki no Reborn]

With Neverland probably ending in few chapters and Yaiba possibly in few months if the author doesn't try anything new, i'm kinda getting worried with Shonen Jump, while this has been the best year for Jump Plus it's not really the same with SJ, despite getting two big hits these two are ending soon and they already lost many other popular series in the last two years, we don't how much Haikyuu has left, Yuuna still selling decent but just that and it can end anytime, Chainsaw Man and Act-Age are decent success but that's it, Dr. Stone isn't reaching what was expected with all the promotions and we still don't know about Samurai 8.

Also Jump is currently working with two less mangas than the usual + 4 flops and 2 new series that we don't know how will perform but Mitama being a gag you shouldn't expect that much from sales, they will have to step it up next year (specially with Plus rising and stealing their talents) and also make sure that Jujutsu Kaisen has a really good anime/studio because it's what they have at the moment with potential to become big.

 

[Mankichi Togawa]

Al this games talk and I've just discovered this:


Also, Hyoga seiyuu is Yuki Kaji and Ikki seiyuu is Sugita Tomozaku

EDIT: There is also a cool Hokuto no Ken game for Android.

Do not forget We never learn, counting on it are 3 manga that are close to finish.
And according to Rain, Yozakura Family doesn't seem to be doing well in Japan. If it's true the way is to forget 2019 and wait for 2020, because even if there are new manga this year I find it hard to get the public's attention.
But with Neverland gone, the jump competition will be less heavy, which may be good for the new series.
