#4. Don't bring politics or off-topic stuff to the thread, this is about Weekly Shonen Jump magazine and mangas, so keep any conversation about topics that aren't related about anime & manga outside the thread.
#5. Don't post news about series from other magazine or publishers in the WSJ thread, post in the series own thread, but it's fine if you're mentioning other series or magazine to express a opinion or reflection about Shonen Jump.

#9. Don't discuss or hype chapter spoilers before Sunday release, only comment if is related to a series surviving status and do it only inside the spoiler tag.
#10. Regarding rule #9, an exception will be made for when we have new series, in this case, spoilers will be allowed only for the first 3 chapters of a new series for the users who are interested in knowing informations and details about the new series, these spoilers will obviously be kept under tags to protect anyone that doesn't want to be spoiled, so don't worry about it.

There's no way Sorachi's new manga runs nearly as long as Gintama. The WSJ of when Gintama was running doesn't exist anymore.

I don't think it will be as long as Gintama. But I personally think it will be long. At least 200 chapters.

Not if his new series is another Samurai 8 or Ichinose Family.

Do not compare Sorachi to the likes of those. He knows how to do his craft. Shinohara has learnt from him too. He is not as simple as what you might think.

There's merit in saying any author can get axed considering even Kishimoto was, but the market is down so much that I have a hard time thinking Sorachi's name alone wouldn't be enough to outsell at least Kiyoshi, the lowest selling mainstay. It would only need 10k to be safe. Gintama's fanbase is loyal and high spending enough I'm betting over 30K is a given for volume 1, and that this is a low guess even. After that... then sure, if reception is bad, maybe it'll go down.

Personal bias time: I just think Sorachi is a much better writer than Kishimoto as well. lol

They already have 16 volumes to adapt lol
Yeah, I'm talking more about how Iwashiro's plans were cut off by Jump when he was launching the original manga
The anime is a chance to "fix" parts of the story he couldn't make at the time

Impressive how Ichi the Witch has the most male-centric arcs every single time. Now we have a male magikeeper to look out. No women, only men...

Blue box ending. I don't see any more than 10 chapters in this manga after today.

Issue 18

1. Someone Hertz: The gags keep getting better every chapter and the relationship is progressing smoothly enough to the point I wonder if this will be like a 100 chapter manga. Not complaining though, somehow both leads are cute.

2. Nue's Exorcist: One of the "shortest" chapters in the whole series because how much it focused on the action. Watching Gekka using all her power again is really fun though and her design is even more beautiful in motion. Zenoblade and dark are still some of the coolest powers, got hyped from just reading their names again.

3. Himaten: Kanna framing her whole story so far is nice because she's not just a "sexy" character, but someone who's aware of everything around her and even how simple her love is, but it's exactly what she needed in a big cold city. Strong dialogue as always.

4. JK Hero: I wonder if it's because this did bad, but recent chapters give a feeling that the author is truly doing whatever she wants without caring much about reception. The mom is a fun addition and her talk about the dad leaning less on the "wholesome" vibes of the first few chapters brings a tone more in line to what the author seems best at when doing comedy or character writing.

5. Sakamoto Days: I care about this fight more than Sakamoto vs Uzuki. Shishiba's development through the story is actually something we got to see and what is at stake here.

I don't think is a girl lol
Color preview reveals she has a skirt lol. But even without it, it was pretty easy to tell with sorachi's style of drawing characters. XD
--- Double Post Merged, , Original Post Date: ---

Anyway yeah I don't have much to say this week besides, Hero and Demon Lord feels like it either has 2 or 10 chapters left, its honestly hard to tell. Blue box feels like its on the verge of ending, but I'm unsure if it'll blow past June or not. And then just wow, awful ending for gonron. There's been open endings before, but half of this chapter is setting up a new arc for the series that it knew it was not reaching lol.
