Sorry, wrong choice of word there. Should have said "cult" that will vote for the manga no matter what instead of a fanbase. Calling it a fanbase is underestimating it

Wdym by "no matter what"? Nue is a genuinely fantastic battle manga. With very well written characters, grounded & raw feeling drama, exciting battles, interesting lore, high stakes, and funny as hell too. It's weird how many people seem to write it off due to the harem elements & light fanservice.

Sorry for dissapointing you, but I am not a fan of Nue's fanservice, especially that boobs grab . The girls are nice and have cool designs tho

Edit: Also in the case of Nue suddenly switching to yaoi route

Any fanbase that I am not a part of is a cult. Basic rule of internet.

But the manga is high quality regardless of the fanservice. I'm not really a fanservice guy myself, I just kind of ignore that part to enjoy everything else.

Not to mention, Nue fanservice is extremely mild compared to something like To Love Ru.

Kill Blue has the best color page in my opinion, i suppose is Noren as a maid in the cultural festival? Cute

Akane color page is very meh, it is trying to go for a "retro" vibe? definitely the least good lead cp of the series. Chojo is just fujobait but at least stylish and Kiyoshi could be more creative.

Sanji in One Piece smokes, amongst other characters. Seen characters smoking in a handful of other Jump manga as well over the years as well.

Hinomaru Sumo ranked #1 with its first ranking. First series to do so since Hokuto no Ken.

Daaaamn wtf haha, I looked it up chapter 8 it ranked #1

Why was that for haha, made you believe it would be a big series, anyways thanks for the info

To change topics a little, I'm gonna say a few things about Murakami despite not having read even 1 chapter (so I won't be saying anything about the actual contents)

The treatment this series got was so weird and I really hope they don't do it again. Let us all be honest: it would have been dead last every week without the fixed placement.

I have never seen such a hateful reception online for a series' debut, so much so that even without proper placements everyone and their mother knew that it was gonna die sooner than everything else.

My biggest question is... What was the plan for it?? For it to become an end of magazine mainstay? Why would they get the author to such a huge flop like Shugomaru for it? And besides, they had MULTIPLE gag series that would have done far better in the same spot.

Top it all off with the actually really cool volume 1 cover that is straight up false advertising when it comes to the tone of the series and it just confuses me to no end.

Nobody here is even talking about it ending. Man.

There are so many aspiring mangakas from awards to submitions. Yeh I don't work in the Jump office but cmon, yall can do way better at picking. Picking Murakami author was just beating a dead horse
