Moderator Notice:
Henceforth, I will be deleting posts that complain about Weekly Shonen Jump having too many/not enough gag/battle/exorcism/sports/etc series.

These posts are not insightful, and do not meaningfully contribute to this thread. Also, this decision is not up for discussion, so posts discussing this decision will also be deleted.~ Halloween

Not exactly sure why you dislike Fumino, but that’s your opinion. More power to ya.
They did do a collaboration cover for Valentine’s Day that one time. Honestly, though, 22i has definitely exchanged more notes with Negi than Miura.

All three are obviously part of a secret RomCom mangaka cult of some sort.

Could be worse, like the outrage of a certain Black Clover cover looking similar to an old One Piece cover.

Astra holding his fist up backwards with one black hand, like Luffy holding his fist up with Armament Haki the same way.

Was there an Outrage in Japan or was it an Outrage on the Internet ?

Given asta's powers its more than likely a coincidence even if it wasn't and it was an imitation it isn't much of a problem(unless the original author says its a problem) ,after all imitation is sincerest form of flattery(do people really have a problem with this) .

Just the West and on the web as usual.

It was cool to mock how generic Black Clover was at the time. Even when some used to call the series "Diet Naruto with Wizards".

It was still funny. I find the whole pose coincidental, doubt Tabata has any bad blood for Oda and possibly respects him.

I doubt few twitter comments and forum comments = outrage.
If anything, MHA was the one that received more comparisons to Naruto especially for its exam arc.

 

[Azure Warrior]

Good times.

Everyone and their mother kept calling Bakugo "Sasuke 2.0" and hoped that he would turn against the heroes.

Which didn't happen since the hothead sees himself as too good for the Villains Association.

Common pose along with significant differences. Theres no reason for Tabata to take inspiration from Oda when Tabata is paving his own path forward in the most beautiful of ways.

Guys, this isn't the MHA thread. If you want to talk about the characters in MHA specifically, do so in the MHA section of this site.

Talking about tropes (of the series) and stuff is fine, since that's more general.

 

[Azure Warrior]

Seeing that Jump covered almost every sports in existence for manga, thinking of a truly lesser used sport for a new series will be tough.

Bowling is an idea, but bowling competitions are not that big and wouldn't lend to an ongoing series. There is also the question if bowling is really popular in Japan at all.

MMA is another one. Just normal mixed martial arts grounded in reality unlike the typical martial arts shonen like Dragon Ball. It's somewhat unique from boxing, and with the right righting should be good as Rokudenashi Blues.

*cough* cough* Running manga *cough* *cough*

I would do absolutely anything for a running manga in Jump. There's so much potential...

 

[tirakai]

But we already have One Piece.

I'd definitely be up for an Amano ice hockey manga though.

Nah. Badminton should come first. It'd really blow up here in my place if it's good. Bonus points if the MCs are mixed doubles based on two of our Badminton GOATs.

 

[Azure Warrior]

Running sounds like a good one.

I would say swimming too, but we all know how that went (cancelled and flopped).

 

[Newkerzy]

Oh, I have, and I’m laughing.




This, especially since most shonen anime tend to shit the bed to varying degrees.

LoL, you made me curious, so I went to check and suspected as much.

Hell yes. That would be exciting for a new manga.

Surfing is another good one. If it is huge in Japan.

Paintball would be nice

I don't think Jump has had a Kendo/Kenjutsu manga before, right? I'd love to see that.

Didn't we have a poll previously and discussed this very subject?
