So uh, changing the subject, I was listening to the complete OST for The Promised Neverland the other day on Spotify and I can't believe how good it is. For a newbie, Takahiro Obata did an amazing job (to be expected from someone who studied under Yuki Hayashi). He perfectly captures the feel of the story's fantastical, yet mechanical and insidious world.

My two favorite tracks are "Their Own Thoughts" (unused in the anime) and "Emma's Determination", but there are so many gems. Not to mention "Isabella's Lullaby" which is honestly one of the most iconic anime songs. I really recommend giving the entire soundtrack a listen.



On that note (heh), what other Jump anime have exceptional OSTs, and what are some standout tracks? Besides TPN, Haikyu!! is definitely up there for me. "The Battle of Concepts" is an amazing tune!

#1 answer for me is Tatsuya Kato most of the time

Also love the JJBA Part 3+ OSTs from Yugo Kanno (+P2's from Taku Iwasaki), and Kenji Kawai's World Trigger OST.
Not to mention of course legends like Kohei Tanaka (One Piece), Shiro Sagisu (Bleach, though certain other series he's done far outclass it), Shunsuke Kikuchi (DB, Dr Slump + many others), Psychic Lover (known for OP songs mainly but their Saiki OST kicks ass), and Seiji Yokoyama (Saint Seiya).

Well we might get to see more Andy development considering the rising popularity and good online reception of UxU
Well, first we actually have to establish Andy's full character before his character can go through a development. We are still only 3 chapters in and in all three actions scenes took1/3-1/2 of the content. So far we know he is immortal, got no tact, has no problems running around naked, was in the war or several wars, is rich af considering his weapon hideouts and he got yachts waiting for him and probably planes as well and what not, is direct, a jerk, good at fighting, would love to die for real, can cut hair, has no sense of personal space, is actually quite a battle thinker trying to figure out opponents negators while hiding his as good as he can or mislead his opponents, refuses to have sex with "desperate women" and well i think that's it. And most of the stuff I named are abilities not characterization like for example is afraid of the dark or loves to eat Burgers or is a dog person or his hobby is to play chess or stuff like that.

Seems like Honto Ranking for Feb 4th is out:

#1 Kimetsu no Yaiba 19
#3 Act-Age 10
#4 Dr. Stone 14
#5 Seraph of the End 20
#27 Platinum End 12
#30 Yuuna-san 20
#38 2.5D Seduction 3
#47 Majo no Kaigashuu 7
#48 Saotome Sisters 6
#52 Mission: Yozakura Family 1
#54 Mitama Security 1
#57 Interrogation Princess 2
#69 Memumemu-chan 9
#72 Yui Kamio 4
#92 Mizore-chan 5

Missing: Jimoto ga Japan 5, Spotless Love 3, Curtain's Up 3, Dark Gathering 3, Hearing Voices 2, Hina Change 2, Monster Girls 2, Sweet! 1
This is like music for my ears, both Yozakura and Mitama doing decent to good!

So Yozakura confirmed to sell at least over 10k copies? if is doing on par or slightly better than S8 you can expect that, maybe the "out of stock" from Amazon was indeed people buying more than printed, but i know, better wait for Shoseki but is definitely a positive sign.

Since we're one week away from seeing KNY 19's first week numbers, how much do you guys think it will sell? Do you guys think it can sell more than OP's biggest 6-day week in the past few years (1,862,800 with OP 85 back in 2017) or do you think they aren't going to send out enough reprints this week to cover this number?
The reprint won't be there in time most likely.

It doesn't confirm any number. It doing well on one shop doesn't give you enough info. Besides, absolute rankings depend on the week.

MHA anime got its highest ratings ever this week, with 5.2 ratings points, and managed to get in the top 3 most watched anime of the week. The previous highest rated episode was season 3's finale with 5.1 ratings points. I guess this is what happens when the episode is focused on the two most popular characters. (For another reference, OP anime hasn't crossed 5 ratings points in over two months)

The reprints go out on Thursday, so the effect might happen on Saturday or Sunday.

Well, that's mildly ironic...

Volume 18 got reprinted on the 17th and arrived in the shops 3 days later on monday

Volumes 15-17 got reprinted on the 23rd and arrived in the shops on the 27th, monday

I wouldn't count on it if the past reprints are any indication.

This... is honestly kind of underwhelming. xD


This is before official release though. But I'm not familiar with OP's day 0 numbers.
For comparison: Kimetsu Volume 18 sold a day before official release, and it charted #1 for that day, IIRC.

is this good or bad for yozakura and mitama?
I'd say it could go either way as these aren't hopeless first day sales (such as what Taisei, Beast Children & TSS had), but they're also not super high starts. As long as they don't sharply decline, I think both could have a decent shot at continuing on for a bit, so long as Zipman/Agravity/UU/Mashle/Witch don't all sell like hotcakes.

Maybe the bookstores limited the amount of volumes they would sell the day before? Just so they wouldn't run out of stock so fast.

True enough, but it likely also depends on what the shops decide to do I guess.

That could be it? Or it just wasn't put up early to the same extent. It's honestly pretty low, lol.

Is it just me or is it strange that JJK anime hasn’t released its studio yet? It’s been over 2 months since the announcement

That was because of the character cards that were included in the volume, everyone went crazy to get theirs so in that way the most of the stores had to open a day before.

Dafuq? Yeah I mean, it's pretty obvious what's missing.

But man, if those aoashi numbers are right...it debuted below like 9 kimetsu volumes on shoseki on day 1 and had 4 days of sales.
Kimetsu might be close to 3mln this week if not even higher than that.
