Very very low quality, but at least we can see Hiro is the main character of the cover 2. That means for me Sachi is getting volume 3.

Fire Force is getting issue 31 cover

--- Double Post Merged, Jun 22, 2020 ---

-Senpai ga Boku wo Torinikiteru (the magapoke manga from Twin Stars Exorcists author) is getting special chapter.
-Blue Lock and Xevec have additional pages
-Hajime no Ippo and Bakemonogatari are absent

I was right about Fire Force getting this week issue because anime starting airing. I'm 100% confident Kanokari will get issue 32 cover for the same reason. For issue 33 I feel we are back to idol covers, but I want Blue Lock to stop being the only veteran without any cover.

[Tamil]

What was Edens Zero recent copies in print figure? (and at how many volumes)

 

[Shinuki no Reborn]

Shoseki, June 19 (day 3 and last):

5 (-2). Hajime no Ippo 128
7 (-5). Kanojo, Okarishimasu 15
10 (+18). EDENS ZERO 10
12 (+10). Soredemo Ayumu wa Yosetekuru 4
14 (+5). Runway de Waratte 16
41 (-7). Gotoubun no Hanayome 3 color
53 (-7). Kanojo mo Kanojo 1
55 (-12). Senryuu Shoujo 13
205 (+14). Beyond Good and Evil 2

So Kanojo mo Kanojo is doing well, SM readers for sure never get tired of these romcom but in the other side they never like these dark and edgy series SM keep pushing everytime

 

[Lil meen]

So Kanojo mo Kanojo is doing well, SM readers for sure never get tired of these romcom but in the other side they never like these dark and edgy series SM keep pushing everytime

I wouldn’t say they don’t like dark and edgy series I just think they don’t like poorly written ones. I actually thoroughly enjoy Reaper’s Dice Game. Tokyo Babel is gradually getting my attention but even then I wouldn’t consider the series 100% dark or edgy. Beyond good and evil started off okay but then just became dumb. Absolutely none of the characters in the manga are likable and it is filled with them making stupid decisions. The manga feels more like one of those corny and low quality “violence for the sake of violence, fan service for the sake of fan service” magazine pocket manga than an actual shonen magazine manga.

 

[Doughboy]

if xevec wasn't getting canceled it could've been that edgy type of series, it has fanservice and comedy for the crowd this mag goes for. tbh given how well bakamonogatari is doing they should get danganronpa creator to do a DR v3 manga adaptation, easy money

 

[Koni]

I mean, last time they got the Danganronpa creator, his series didn't exactly do well and I don't think he took it too kindly. Still, he's probably got a lot of other work to do now at his new studio.

 

[Ravellino]

Gamblers Parade was kind cool

Even better, why doesn’t he make a tribe-9 manga. It definitely seems more of something that a shonen magazine reader would want to see. It will probably have yankee and super powered battle elements on top of the creator’s signature black comedy and fan service which based on the manga that has ran on SM will probably have a larger appeal on there audience than danganronpa. Either that or he should just make a original manga.
