Gotw is not just generic// its stiff, boring and dull/dump...

UU > AB > Mashle > Yoza Fam > mitama

thank you very much.. i too hype forgot to tag spoiler..
you don't have to be so aggressive. I don't offend any manga you like. I just gave my opinion, I never said that Guardian would be a success, so you don't need to be offended.

Nah, Shokagukan has become more focused on slice of life and sports while shuiesha still emphasizes action which is where the author’s talent will shine.
--- Double Post Merged, , Original Post Date: ---

It feels like UxU is taking more influence from 90’s Shonen than most other new series
What 90's Shonen do you mean exactly and what kind of influence? MC? Story-telling? World-building? Art-sytle? Paneling?

Spy x Family got 2nd place in Manga Taisho. Lost only to Blue Period.
Wow and only 6 points behind first place. This could mean it might get first place next time or is Manga Taisho something you only get into only once? In any case, 2nd place is pretty damn impressive for such a young series and something to brag about. Will certainly get it even more attention.

With two manga in the top 10, Shihei Rin must be one satisfied editor
Yeah. he is the best horse in the stable so to say. Nearly everything he is involved with turns to gold. The Midas of Manga! XDDD

You can still get nominee of manga taisho if you have less than 10 volumes by the time the next one comes around

It's 8 or less. But otherwise, yeah, you can get multiple nominations. Spy x Family should get nominated again, I feel. CSM would be past the threshold by then.

Do we assume this is about the movie date reveal?
Based on the full event this is just replacing Aniplex's presence at AnimeJapan (nothing else Jump related was mentioned) so basically anything they would have announced there. I could see them hesitant to announce a date if it's this year though since movies are being delayed due to the virus.

Mashle's chapter was pretty OK. Way better than chapter 6 which was the other one with more serious action.
The main important thing for me is that the characters and action weren't cringy.

And it was still funny in various bits. It's very much following Beelzebub by mixing action and comedy and interchanging their moments.

Also, I know this isn't relevant to this thread but I hope you all are safe and healthy. Please keep an eye out for the elderly people around you as they would be the ones most affected by what's happening.

I have noticed people here really like Mitama Security. Can I get an explanation as to why? Other than the baseball arc (which ended disappointingly) I hate to read it week to week.

Well, for me it's just a comfy read week-to-week, and I really like the ghosts. The series really started working for me when we got more spirits with different personalities, and I enjoy reading their interactions. So now, even when it isn't specially funny, the slice-of-life feel makes it a pleasant read.

Same here. To me the spirits and their funny personalities make the manga. They're better than Mitama himself imo. I love Zobirou, the commentary spirit, salmon and babe ruth

Thanks for the response. My only issue I guess is that even though the characters are quirky and unique I feel like the author is forcing comedy by throwing jokes or situations at random. They come off as cringe, this lion chapter as an example. If the characters can carry it why not make comedy a secondary focus. It’s not selling especially well and with this big cast they could really do something else that may work.

For me, I wouldn't really care about the magazine, as long it is a weekly magazine with a weekly rhythm (not just being in Weekly Jump and then still releasing monthly like Boruto), as I prefer following weekly manga over monthly manga. Biweekly is also somewhat okay.

For Kubo’s health, I want monthly. For my selfish desires, I want weekly.

Ultimately it’s what he wants, and I’ll support whatever he chooses.

It's just a fun and comfy read. Even if this chapter wasn't a gold standard in comedy, I liked how insane it was this time around. By the looks of it, the Body arc may be why it dropped in the rankings, so I don't think that making the comedy a secondary focus would be such a good idea.
