Assuming Kiyoshi sticks around for a full natural run, what does everyone expect it to do story-wise going forward?

There's only one more Great Demon Lord to go after the current arc so it could end after that as a simpler, shorter series like Mashle did, but the setting is loose enough to introduce a whole new set of villains for a part 2 if the author wants to keep it going.

Like the one line in the Black Parade arc about a character being contracted with an angel, said with an ominous tone (implying angels may be dangerous ie a possible future antagonist?). Or it could do a 2nd level of hell or something that even the regular demons are afraid of.
I think there is enough to do left (spoilers for upcoming potential arcs) (exploring angel realm, last 13 club member, jogasaki clan, exorcist traitor, more underworld gate technique users, next exam, solomon flashback?, 3rd great demon lord, possible king?) idk if were going to see all of that tho. could see it end shortly after hima-ten!

Actually Kiyoshi isn't hated or anything here, in our votes is doing pretty fine for most part, the fans here are just not as vocal as we Nue fans are lmao!

It's more like few vocal members having problems with the way the manga is treated compared to the sales and etc, not even necessarily about quality, but i don't want to start this discussion again, i had enough of it at the moment lol
if he were here 2 days ago he would already understand 🤣 🤣

I need to know if Kinato's Magic gets a color page. :narutokyu:narutokyu:narutokyu
My bet is that because hero girl ended this week, and we already know blue box has a color page, then we’re going to have a oneshot take that last slot.

Potentially, I think we usually get oneshots after the round ends tho. Not saying it'll be Kinato, I've lost all hope but think it'll be something else. I'd prefer a one shot if not Kinato or Alien tho

I'm more interested in it and Aliens placements now, over like them getting color pages. I just want to see if they're stable rn, or if they're starting to fall. The bottom 5 is cleared out now, so it'll be interesting to see what series hits bottom. We don't have a clear candidate for it yet. I'm betting it'll be Kiyoshi, Himaten, or Nue.

2025 was such an garbage year for jump in terms of new series.
Yea, the only series that made the cut is Someone Hertz, which is excellent, but I'm curious to see how they'll handle the cultural translation challenges when it's released in languages other than English.

I’m certain there will be those that will rise to the challenge, especially its translator David Evelyn.

You're 23 years old and can't stop ragebaiting about One Piece. Ok fine, you don't like OP (or not as much as you used to), but you've been making these dumb comments for more than 2 years. It's seriously becoming cringe.
It's because they are cringe.

I think this new wave of authors is lacking a bit more boldness. I’ve been missing ambitious stories in Japan’s main shounen magazine. Maybe when One Piece ends, new authors will feel inspired again. We’ll see.

I have an interesting opinion about that, but before I can answer it, I have one main question. Of the new wave of artists, how far back can you say the new wave has been where the stuff they are putting out is disappointing?

Drawn To The Flame sounds so much nicer. Idk why they wouldn't just go for that.
Well they did just name a series Otr of the Flame, and we saw how that went…

It is funny that between these two and embers, we’re getting a lot of fire-based series names lately, not to mention two of which are sports series with nothing to do with literal fire.

We Disney here.

That's kind of a weird name to use for the series. In the one shot, the MC was the "firefly" in it and the title was referring to him and how he played. But the full series title and this summary makes it sound like the rival is the fire in this relationship? I sure hope that this isn't a sign that the series is going to be way different from the one shot...

This happens at times. You get used to it.
