it doesn't have fujobait for the girls or cute girls for the male audience
Akane Banashi not having cute girls is an insane thing to say when the main character IS a cute girl 😭

I can see the logic tbh, if you picked out half the cast it'd look like an otome game demographic.

That being said I'm like pretty certain the Akane anime is either coming with Jump Festa or we're all missing some key factor in its delay like if they're looking for rakugaoka experienced VA or something (although the vomic did feel like they already got this done fine)

No one is ready for this opinion yet, but Kagurabachi is basically a romance already if you think of the swords as love interests
The week "die as mine at my side" dropped will go down as one of the funniest chapter reactions I've ever seen because of just the pure volume of yumes self inserting as kuregumo
We are evolving. What if Chihiro's mom is a katana? It's Xenoblade 2 all over again. Is Kunishige, perhaps, the gigachad Rex?

Akane is "hot" but she isnt really the type of female character that will drive hordes of male fans crazy, nor the author do much to entice that, and is not a criticism because the manga is obviously popular but i dont see that "viral" factor that can make manga sales explode

Honestly, I believe it depends. While there is no traditional "viral" moment, one could naturally arise as the seasons continues. I can see something like the "Jugemu" being nailed perfectly it can cause an increase of sales, a la Demon Slayer. An good drama sells about as well as a Good action, Anyways.

Besides if push comes to shove, Akane-Banashi can always just appeal to the Himedanshi. I saw an lot of Hikaru x Akane shippers on Reddit and Mangaplus after all.

You mean Demon Slayer level of boost? if it's that, not gonna happen even if Ufotable themselves animate it.

I'm not saying Akane will not get a boost, with a well produced anime i totally see getting one but i just dont see the series exploding in sales, would love to be wrong.

Not saying a demon slayer level boost, I’m using demon slayer as an example of an anime that got a boost late.

But I do agree with everything you said.

People who are interested in the newest graph showing the share of digital sales of manga in the Japanese manga market, HERE YOU ARE

There is a graph on this link, but I don't know how to put it with the link INSIDE the forum like you all do. Anyway, if somebody can repost it... yoroshuu~

And there is a new documentary on tokiwaso, the dormitory for young mangaka who want to become pro here

All in Japanese of course, but I explained the graph in English in the link above. Not really hard to understand though.

At this rate, I'm going to surpass everyone and become the Yapper King.
As much as I like collecting physical volumes, digital versions are honestly my preferred way of reading by a mile. Extremely convenient, often considerably cheaper while still being perfectly legal, better for the environment, etc.

I cannot let this happen. Initiate the "Kagurabachi vs Nue" protocol.

Unless they have HUGE faith in the series, I predict they'll wait for volume 1 sales before deciding on a pre anni cover or not
Nue cover soon [Copium]
