With Haikyuu ending, what kind of series do you guys want to see Furudate do next

 

[SharkBait]

With Haikyuu ending, what kind of series do you guys want to see Furudate do next

A year of rest. They havent take any hiatsu in 8.5 yrs

I’m sure he will rest and I’m not exacting them to return with another series until maybe 2 or 3 years at earliest.
Just saying, when they do return, what would you like to see them do

 

[tirakai]

That's interesting. I had no idea this was already confirmed, I thought it was still a rumor only. Anyone have some kind of source? I would like one if someone ask me someday lol

It was discussed here about a year ago, I looked through my old messages and found the source of the confirmation


although I don't know what the talk they're referring to is.

 

[OniluapL]

With Haikyuu ending, what kind of series do you guys want to see Furudate do next

Honestly? Another try at something in the vein of Kiben Gakuha. I really liked that series' style, although unpolished. Furudate could do something really great with their current art and paneling, I feel

 

[SharkBait]

Kind of dont want Furudate to come back to JUMP, Go to Jump Sq or something. We haven't had any ultra successful author come back to JUMP for another success in over a decade+, and it will just ruin all of our views of Furudate, as

Samurai8 ruined Kishimoto for people and kind of took him down a few pegs
Illegal Rare for the Nura writer
Yui Kamio for the Nura writer
Hungry Mary for Beelzebub writer
Kagamigami for Psyren
Robot x Laserbeam for Kurobas writer

Dr. Stone is a return success.
But I agree that I’d rather see successful veterans come back on Jump+ or other magazines

 

[Shinuki no Reborn]

I don't think Furudate will stop working on Haikyuu at all even with the "main" series ending, franchise still big, anime will get more seasons, probably more novels and i wouldn't rule out any sort of sequel/spinoff with him in charge, it's almost the norm with big sport series, also Furudate doesn't seem tired of the series at all and is one of the healthiest Jump authors. What i mean is that i see a good possibilit that he will just keep working with the franchise and writing/drawing more stuff for it than just leaving and trying something completely new on Jump.

Editors were Torishima and Yahagi (first editor for HxH and Naruto; current EiC of Jump Square).

So I’m finally catching up and binge reading Act-Age. And I can honestly say that I believe this is by far the best written series in Jump right now. And I would go as far as to say this may be one of the best written manga Jump has every had(at least in the 20ish+ years I’ve been following Jump)

So, estimating by linear interpolation, we have

Volume 1: 9223
Volume 2: 9192

For agravity boys. Obviously linear interpolation isn't the most precise method but there's definitely no visible improvement here.

 

[James Rye]

So 2nd Volume sold more first week but less second week than first Volume and is pretty much the same in sales total after two weeks. Not good, but compared to Mitama who sells less and less with each new Volume it still sells better. Though that has nothing to say as both series should be the next axe candidate if WSJ wants to give all new series of the newest batch time to prove themselves.

 

[yadayada]

Agravity boys did 3,674 second week which is 9,259 total
Volume 1 had 9,223 second week in total, and did 4,037 that week

It's 3607 week 2.

 

[Minsel]

It's 3607 week 2.

yeah woops u right

 

[RafGL]

I'm happy that Mashle has returned to the ranking (even if it is at the end).

Mashle has never left Shoseki since the day it went on sale.
