Mag Talk Weekly Shounen Sunday (Shogakukan) - Part 2 (2015 - 2021)

[TanisKa]

#10 cover - Wild Police Story

 

[Serinox]

Oh, which reminds me, Aoyama said in one of his recent Animal Crossing messages: "I drew a [magazine] cover of Conan and Mary!"

Which probably means that the #13/2020 issue, in which the next Conan case will start, will also feature Detective Conan on the cover of Sunday.

This week's talkback. Did a little more quick peeks at chapters opposed to full on summaries and thus it feels a little shorter, maybe? Either way this is way more sustainable.

The difference between each volume is so small, it could be just an error in estimation. Afterall, shoseki estimates and the way I am calculating it is not the most reliable thing in the world. But, the fact that it keeps increasing with each volume and reports of reprint makes it clear that it is growing, it just grows very slowly. At least, according to shoseki that is the case.

Yofukashi no Uta #2

 

[Koni]

The Yofukashi no Uta cover is really nice! Has anybody read that manga? If so, what’s it like?

 

[Thundercat27]

It's decent and charming in a weird way.
It's about a emotional stun high schooler quit school, become a shut-in, go out at night and got charmed by a dumb wacky vampire.

 

[TanisKa]

Yukosae Tatakaeba will end soon.
4th volume will be the last.

 

[Serinox]

Wow, that's... weird. Did that happen before that the volume listing gave away the ending before it was said in the magazine itself or did I miss something?

Same thing happened with Undine of the desert world.

 

[Jovan]

Yukosae Tatakaeba to end in the next issue

 

[Bomber D Rufi]

Yuko gone next week, Birdmen gone this week, and Fire Rabbit in two weeks. The Mag is getting gutted and I just wonder when we're gonna get that new serialization round. Also "Hot Lady Enma" isn't a term I thought I'd use when talking about PingKong but here we are.

Is Yukosae ending in Issue 11 or Issue 12? Seeing Ping Kong under Daiku is a bit sudden considering how new it is, but hopefully it's just a temporary rather than reoccurring thing.

Also I can't remember, is Ariadne in its final arc? I'm glad the translations started up again after the long break.

 

[Serinox]

And that reminds me that Zettai Karen Children is also supposedly in its final arc... for over five years now xD Good old "Shonen final arc length".

 

[Tamil]

Anyone got first print data/records for the bigger hit titles like Ushio, Inuyasha, Magi, H2, Gash Bell, etc?
