Welp, looks like East, Into The Night got cancelled.

What a shame. I liked that story.

Was that the series where the mangaka had a meltdown on Twitter over the series lack of popularity?

 

[Mammo]

It seems just credits him for original work (as this is a spinoff)? Because below it says 漫画は『ZIPMAN!!」の芝田優作先生が担当! aka The manga is in charge of Yusaku Shibata-sensei of Zipman, which they wouldnt say if he was only doing art.

to me it seems like they're saying Sanjo will write and Shibata will draw
if they meant it as the creator of the original manga, they would have mention Inada or at least credit him as characters designer

 

[savethecat]

This means it’s probably likely Viz will do a English release

He is having a meltdown right now. From an user on WSJ Discord he says something in these lines (Note: this is a digital-only volumes manga): "Thank you very much, but unfortunately this is the end. This is a natural result because the sales of Volume 1 e-books were terrible. It was all my lack of power, and a result that betrays the expectations of everyone who purchased in hopes of continuation. Sincere apologies from us, I am sorry"

 

[ThunderStorm]

Just by curiosity. What popularity poll got you 'shocked'?
Mine would be Naruto Popularity Poll 6 where Deidara got 3rd place and Naruto was 4th.
Sister Krone appearing in Kimetsu no Yaiba poll was funny.

The Jujutsu Kaisen one. I remember everybody was expecting Gojou 1st but he ended 3rd.

I recall the MHA one 2018 also very surprising for many people, with Endeavor, Hawks and Shinsou in the top-10 and no Mirio. And Kirishima 4th, and Jirou being the only girl in the top-10

 

[Azure Warrior]

To open a can of worms, some of the later One Piece polls always raise a brow.

Ace and Corazon being in the Top 20 despite

Spoiler: Massive One Piece spoilers

both being dead.

Same for Rebecca and Shirahoshi being so popular despite both being crybabies, the former would have to be the worst part of Dressrosa for me.

 

[Blink22]

A second reprint scheduled for Undead Unluck (June 15).

手
6月15日出来 ジャンプコミックス 『アンデッドアンラック 1』 戸塚 慶文

Selling better than Yozakura?

Chad Victor sama raising the numbers. Volume 2 will be interesting to see the first print numbers.

 

[NyanPower]

Damn that animation ain’t looking good

 

[TheEnhancedExe]

I don't follow TPN but they literally can just do a 10 chapter quick epilogue arc for one more volume, if required.
Then you'll probably see a LCP for the climax of the climax arc of the final arc.

I mean, in theory this would be possible, but I really doubt this will happen considering the final arc was rushed a lot, especially the last chapter. It just feels as if they want to end the manga as fast as possible.

 

[lazybones1717]

Damn that animation ain’t looking good

Did we watch the same clips? Besides the 2 second cut at 0:18-0:19, it all looks pretty good. The color design and effects are great and that scorpion cut is especially cool. It's shame that the video quality is so low, but that doesn't reflect poorly on the actual show.

Well, to each their own, I guess.

 

[Rouk']

It's out ( Series / Volumes )
Only 5 series and 25 volumes is disappointing

LN rankings as well... sheesh

 

[Ryuusei]

Meh, I hope they release the rest of the top 10 series and the top 50 volumes because this is just boring, especially the volumes. We have more or less an idea about the top 10 series anyway. But seeing every Kimetsu volume except the one that was released two weeks ago sell more than any One Piece volume is still pretty amusing.

 

[Stivie]

What are the chances of kimetsu no yaiba beating one piece in a second consecutive year?

The Dragon Quest PV looks good tbh. It has an old school look to it which is nice.

For some reason I have the feeling Toei is going to edo tensei Kinnikuman next

PD: I only wanted that treatment for Hoshin Engi, not that crap anime reboot ;_;

I hope so
