Rain Spectre was 18+ when he appeared, so be careful of what you wish for... :derp
Fair point lol.
Boy had the brain of a 12 year old though.

Honestly so excited for Alien Butthead tomorrow. I don't think I've been this excited for a new serialization since Hard-Boiled Cop & Dolphin.

A advertising campaign for vol 7 that seems like it resulted in Boruto as a whole going viral pretty hard on Japanese social media in the last 4/5days and still going right now :^_^

Natsuki went viral hard on Twitter but unfortunately not as hard or we would have gotten all Nue volumes charting too 😭

The fact that BORUTO is above Gokurakugai for 3 days already is crazy

And also the fact that all tbv volumes are still charting… it’s the beat month of the year omg

I always complain that SHUEISHA does a terrible job at promoting BORUTO, even more on VJump… but this time it was perfect lol

the “Konoha vs Boruto” was definitely an amazing title

What i found interesting is how BB managed to be #1 in the first day, above CSM, is it having a boost?

It's not out yet. Due to the English version releasing at midnight Japan time, we read Jump earlier than the majority of Japanese people do.

Heck, I live in Hokkaido and due to the extreme snowfall recently Jump's physical releases are a whole week behind in many shops (and it's probably even worse if you go into the countryside).

Just to clarify for the ones who dont know, this is about the physical version, the digital version is released in Japan at the same time as Manga Plus releases, 12:00, but for them it means midnight.

First chapter of Alien Headbutt was weird, and sadly I’m not sure if it’s in a good way for me yet. The execution was just off imo, but I still have hope it can be something cool.

I am actually starting to think Inui Akira is Inui Shutarou

This premise is just as metal and punk as his oneshots, and I'm seeing some similarities with the art with his last oneshot which was released in 2021

I also am just hoping he's finally arrived to jump after wanting him to come for years
lol Congrats it turns out you were right, Inui Akira is Shutarou! I just want to know what kind of training this guy went to change and evolve his art in such a drastic way :grin

Explosive debut of Alien Headbutt, a charismatic protagonist, a simple but working background and A LOT of hands being thrown...

That's what I needed in this magazine

I AM BACK IN THE UNDER DOCTOR HYPE AGAIN!

Kinato also had a strong chapter 2. I'm fully on board now.

About to start alien headbutt. I'm scared.

Minsel, I tip my hat to you for making that incredible deduction. I admit, i thought you might have been wrong, but man, you have a good eye, dude.

Much better than mine, to be honest.

I legitimately cannot think of a better way to word this but Alien Headbutt felt like it started on chapter 2 with a 20 page recap of chapter 1. I don't think it picked a good place to end at all.

First chapter of Alien Headbutt was awesome, it has an energy I've been missing in the magazine for a while. Really, really think this can take off. Same with Kinato, one of the best second chapters in a while. Under Doctor is still solid but it's doing the least out of the batch so far.

Also kind of mixed on this week's Nue... I thought the content itself was good but I'm disappointed they just skipped through what was being set up as a longer series of battles again. I guess I should be used to it at this point lol.
