I don't think the jump is that desperate now that Agravity boys, Undead unluck and Mashle are doing well.
You should probably get your numbers straight before you try to argue that :P
I do not know if Oda will be panicking or not, I do not have the pleasure of meeting him to confirm or disprove such a thing. But you can be sure that no person, no matter how good they are, likes the idea of moving to second place, even if it happens 2 or 3 years. I know that English is not my mother tongue, but I made it clear that opinions are subjective. But apart from that, we must undoubtedly base ourselves on what is objective. In statistics, sales, recognition, impact, etc. And that is something undeniable and does not give wings for subjectivity. It is or it is not.
Oda will be fine. He probably enjoyed finally getting some competition inside the magazine while it lasted, even if he ended up tasting defeat.
Well, I agree. It all comes down to personal preference. I'm not going to start a argument with anyone saying that this manga is better then the one he likes more. It's Just useless try to impose your opinion in someone else.
Is everyone forgetting Oda's statement from the end of last year? He seems to be fine with the competition, especially since he didn't need to give a statement to Oricon (or mention KnY at all) in the first place:
We're already at 8 including Ghost Writer and we're not even halfway through the issue numbers yet. We have one more confirmed (Burn the Witch), so we'll only need 3 more new series in the second half of the year to match up with the 12 we got last year.
Interesting that Yuuna is even an option. Considering that Seven Seas has the licence in the US and Panini has them in I think all of Latin America; I wonder how this will play out.If you enter Mangaplus via mobile app, a questionnaire will pop up.
Question 7 is interesting:
Mangaplus is asking about Yuuna-san, Prince of Tennis, 2.5 Dimensional Girl, Kemono Jihen, Bokyaku Battery, Matou Seihei no Slave, etc.
Basically the remaining Jump titles they don't have in the english or spanish catalogue (Haikyuu or Chainsawman for example are there because it isn't in the spanish catalogue, I think), plus J+ or SQ titles (for some reason, Moriarty isn't there).
I'm pretty sure they are considering every title they have chosen. Having translated titles already tells pretty much. I guess they're asking to choose 3 so they can gradually add all of them according to readers' demand and popularity.
That is what you believe, another thing is what really is.
And that serves as proof of what, exactly?Is everyone forgetting Oda's statement from the end of last year? He seems to be fine with the competition, especially since he didn't need to give a statement to Oricon (or mention KnY at all) in the first place:
Eiichiro Oda Gives a Nod to Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba
Demon Slayer was top-selling manga series overall according to Oricon, while One Piece took top 4 spots by volume saleswww.animenewsnetwork.com
Such a flawed argument.
So you are assuming that Oda is panicking?That is what you believe, another thing is what really is.
And that serves as proof of what, exactly? Can't I just leave you a message here on the forum saying how smart and how great you are, and then in my privacy I will curse you because you seem like a disgusting person?
Same for me. Voted Yuuna-san, Boukyaku Battery, and Prince of Tennis
Who decides what series is poorly paced?
I was also thinking that way until the pandemic started and also with the possibility of having more hiatos in the jump.
What I said to the user in question is that the fact that Oda is not affected is just a personal assumption. To which I added "that may not be true". Not with that I am affirming that he feels bitter for losing the first place, but neither can we affirm that he does not feel based on anything.
I have no idea what those arguments could be considering Dragon Ball is a far more successful and valuable property than One Piece, the legacy of YuYu Hakusho, and Kinnikuman isn't given much respect compared to series with better volume sales.
You're asking questions for which you know the answers.
Is there a point to this? You're just going to keep at it because you can't differentiate between being subjective and objective. I could literally state any series I want and it wouldn't matter.
I admit I was wrong.You're asking questions for which you know the answers.
You liking something is subjective because it falls under things you like, or it uses props/weapons/lines that you like. A character might have a scar on his left cheek which radiates with you because you have a scar on your left cheek. So you like that character more than someone else would. Subjective. Nothing objective about it.
Objectivity is about how well that something is put together in the context of that material/industry. For movies, if scenes sync well, are clear in what they attempt to portray, well positioned cameras to capture the right lighting required for the scene that was being portrayed.
If the camera angle only shows the person's nose when he is talking, it's objectively bad. Nothing subjective about that.
Similarly, please tell me which of the two drawings are better. You know one of them is objectively better. Please, tell me which one that is.
Sasuke 1
Sasuke 2

But just to play ball, FMA is a far better series than One Piece, objectively
