I def think a cinematic vibe bits Kagurabachi much more than CSM P1
Not surprising. Didn’t Hokazono say old-school action cinemas set in Japan was part of his inspiration? Something along the veins of Kill Bill, etc…

Yeah, I mean, I get it if you struggle with stuff like the Jugem arc in Gintama, this is probably the closest he's gone to that since doing that exact arc, I think it's mostly just, compared to what he did with the monkey where the two sole jokes were basically, him having long name and him throwing shit, here it's way more un-lazy Sorachi where you've got plenty of non toilet related humor.

FTR I wasn't even replying to your take in specific, obviously I'm not able to churn out a whole wordsalad in 5 minutes.



Yeah I agree, pretty impressive how the author managed to get such a strong payoff after I felt as if he was losing himself earlier on when he leaned into the action to such a degree, when, my read is that, the author is probably below average for a rookie when it comes to drawing action scenes, feels like he blew his load in the plane during chapter 1, past that the art kinda lacks the impact he wants.



Did I really say something that sounded like that, I mostly just wanted to explain some of what made me laugh since most of the people who I think are new to Sorachi (Like they've actually voiced that fact) are kinda left on an island because of how large of a percentage the references were for this chapter.
No I was talking about myself. People said it’s too Japanese but it felt normal to me

That's what i meant. After Full Drive and Draconir, he switch to a more romcom artstyle.
Terrible decision making. His art became completely generic after that.

Megumi? I thought it seemed more likely as todo since he was mentioned a lot already.
--- Double Post Merged, ---

Is it a multi chapter thing or just a one shot
It sounded more like a one shot but no official clarification was given.

They said the bonus ch is about a character that didnt appear in jj modulo. Megumi was the one that never appeared at all.
Todo has atleast been brought up like 3 times.

Exact wording
" The volume also includes notes about characters from the main series, along with a special bonus manga showing the future appearance of ‘that character’ who never appeared in Modulo "

lol i can't believe Shonen Jump teased Black Clover news only for it to be literally just Saito repeating what has been repeated by the official channels a hundred times that is "Black Clover is reaching its story/serialization climax next GIGA issue" LOL What a joke, is it so hard to just say it's ending? Unless it's not ending lol

Btw, the Jujutsu Kaisen Modulo news is just a short extra chapter in the final volume, of course there wouldn't be the announcement of yet another sequel spinoff :grin

About the The Promised Neverland spinoff, man, Saito is really that desperate huh? Seriously do we really need a TPN short spinoff? The manga has been totally finished for years...😴

Yeah definitely looks good but like others mentioned, there''s something slightly off about some moments, i don't know exactly how to put in words, but no doubt it will look pretty great, btw, a freaking whole year to broadcast? Jesus...

I really doubt Gintama fans will enjoy it. In fact I doubt people who believes this has actually read Gintama
You know you're not a spokesman of Gintama fans right? specially the japanese ones, the manga 1st ch and PV are doing numbers on J+ and on Youtube, and Gintama fans are the main ones praising the series in Japan lol

Brought up but don’t appear and we know he’s alive. I’m leaning towards it being Todo as well.

Literally everyone who read modulo was asking where Megumi was throughout the spinoff. Don't let the Fraud Slander work yourself into a shoot. Alot of people still like megumi regardless of his outcome.

We’ll see then. I thought the final chapter implied he was already dead. I’m still betting it’s Todo

BACHI ANIME, YEAH!!!!
The fish are adorable - and the animation is great as expected! Also that trailer music is PERFECT vibe. Traditional Japanese instruments mixed with a more modern, darker-slightly gritty-industrial(?) sound?

Haven't caught up w Kagurabachi but am super happy for y'all


Taihi Kimura, most notable for playing...

...

Well, congrats to him, he got his big break.
He did voice Takumi in The Hundred Line, but not sure how many people know that.

Well, if I recall, Bocchi's VA wasn't that well known either initially. (Though she started in 2014, 8 yrs before the Bocchi the Rock anime, and Chihiro's started in 2024.)

I am spot on about the epilogue chapter.

About the PV.. hmm they are being coy about it. It got to has something to do with the epilogue

Its not surprise after Sorachi was named the most beloved mangaka for at least 5 years straight. And a lot of fans of certain series feel something akin to obligation to support author new work. But it only work to until realization that you doesnt have to if new work just isnt your thing.

Could be todo and megumi. Maybe they had a mission together. I just feel gege had a reason for bringing up todo a few times.

Considering every Jump Press has had anime news, I'm hoping we do get another one soon (in June/July), so that we can finally have hxh return news. So funny that people thought it to be in this one.

I just do not vibe with like the actual style and look of the thing itself.
Never been the biggest fan of how those earlier chapters looked so the only thing I'm kind of torn on is the loss of Hokazono's shading...



I think everything else looks really really great.
a freaking whole year to broadcast? Jesus...
If it's already in production I suppose that means we have to be getting 24 episodes which is great but still... I had my fingers crossed for January 😭

And now Nue's Exorcist is literally the only series missing a anime adaptation, so please Shonen Jump, don't make us wait for much longer, next month with the 3rd anniversary please 🙏

I mean either way, this will be the style for up until the auction, and I'm kinda bummed thinking about that. I'm not the biggest fan of KGB, but this is reminding me of CSM s1 in the style its going for. Feels more like a fan project over actually representing the vibes of the series.
