#2. No bait or troll comments with the intention of being annoying or starting serious heated discussions, if i notice it's a continuous behavior, i will warn the user or delete the comment.
#3. No toxic attitude towards series, no one is obligated to enjoy any series and it's totally fine to criticize what you don't like, just avoid posting gratuitous hateful or toxic comments about X or Y series, if i notice this behavior, comments will be deleted.
#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.
#6. Any tweet, specially japanese, about news, update or some interesting thing about the magazine or series has to come with a text of what that tweet means and also be on topic, if not it's going to be either deleted or i will edit the post.
#7. Refrain from self advertising or advertising Youtubers videos in the comments.
#8. Constant fanart posts just for the sake of praising a favorite series is prohibited, this rule doesn't apply for official art by Jump artists posted on social media, they're fine to post.
#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.
~ Shinuki

I hope everyone reads the rules and use it as a guide to behave well in the thread, thanks! :kkthumbs

Okay, that's an interesting day for leaks.

Very happy to see UD living! With a color page next week yipeeee! And Shinobi anni cover? Neat.
And please let's put Hokazono on hiatus again bruh.
So, yet, we might have 3 "winners" this year, with Roku, AS & UD.

About Nue, heh, I want to believe that Lerche new rumor. That could be pretty nice, tbh. Maybe it's completely fake but that's okay. As far as I know, they don't have anything except COTE S5. But anyway, let's wait and see. Pretty hyped tho, for the next Jump Press. They kinda teased there would be another one, last time.

Animal Signal color page is pretty nice, btw. And congrats Ichi for 100th chapter & 2 years!
Also, kinda surprised they didn't give that 300th chapter color page to Roboco.

On another subject, I think Pierrot will take a new Jump series yeah, between the 2024 buddies probably. Bleach is finished, BC S2 has cour 2 in production and then nothing else. Sooo yeah.

That'll really only run into late 2027, according to reports. So what is on their 2028 slate and beyond? Thats most likely when any of the 2024 action series would have their anime air.
I assume they bring Boruto back around then

You could easily be pulling our legs, but I will decide to somewhat believe in this.

It FEELS plausible, and I don't think you have any reason to lie about this either.

Know that if you are betraying my trust, one thousand Ishu shaped locusts will invade your room as response!
If it turns out not to be true I will deny my punishment cuz it wont be on purpose 😂

But I do think its true

People really aren’t enjoying this kgb arc huh

or is hokazono always delivering late?
I think it could be a combination of the 2. He probably isn't fully healthy and back to the grind, while it seems the reception in Japan for this arc is lackluster. It is the opposite for me, I personally am liking this arc better than everything that came before it.

We will only know that on January or so. Since the volumes will only come by then.

Lerch is a good studio, 99% of their anime adaptations has at the very least a 7 score on MAL, and they adapted Assassination Classroom perfectly well so they're clearly a competent studio, the thing is that they're not a "action heavy" studio, so it's hard to judge it for a actual battle shounen, the closest thing they have is Radiant.

While i'm not "disbelieving" @Baes, since i don't see why he would be trolling and picking Lerch is such a out of the box studio to use it as a troll, Lerch would be, like i said, such a out of the box pick for a WSJ battle shounen lol

But again, like i said, if they're giving it all the fanfare of a Jump Press + Cover & Lead CP combo for Nue, i can't see they doing that for a mediocre/bad studio, i would expect just a regular color page like it was with Hinomaru Zumo (Deen) or Yuuna-san (Xebec, love the anime but Xebec was at the end of its life) if it's the case, even Yozakura with a decent studio like Silver Link only got a regular color page and announcement on Jump Festa day.

Could be the adaption has a lot of money, care, and belief put into it. I know Ufotable did Fate beforehand, but were they the gold standard for anime back then?

In the end is all about the staff and schedule. Ufotable has always been known as a amazing studio "sakuga" wise.

Under Doctor 8 chapters ago would be ch27 with color page and the return of the old doctor from ch1, so that makes sense 🤔

Any non-mainstream studio is treated as trash by hype beast anime accounts and social media, ignoring how projects vary based on production side and the staff working on the project, besides the downplaying of the quality of anything that isn't a wobbly mess convulsion of colors for action. We live in a world where Engi made a widely beloved Medalist anime, meanwhile Mappa's Chainsaw Man season 1 is disliked by many fans.

This isn't even getting into personal taste. Kimetsu no Yaiba may be "technically good", but each season/movie keeps drowning more and more in effects that pollute the screen and make the motions harder to follow, but for some reason I'm expected to be hoping for my favorite shows go to ufotable.

Hal Formula Volume 1 is getting a recommendation by Shuichi Shigeno, author of Initial D & MF Ghost!

"It was beyond my wildest imagination. You're drawing things I could never draw myself, I'll continue reading, keep it up!"

Getting a Shigeno recommendation is insane lol I don't think i saw anyone actually predicting him, that's as high as you can get with a racing manga, like getting a Oda recommendation, i hope this makes many people interested in picking up 🙏

They overuse the effects and bright color to hide the fact that they do very limited animations. It is so obvious that characters actually do not move that much and there are lots of static image spam with just camera panning. Not to mention the stupid pacing and directional choices.

azami voice actor reveal!
I really hope Cypic goes all out with Azami’s first appearance because he barely shows up or does anything until the kamunabi raid arc😂
Also I’m pretty sure the next important character to show up is Sojo so I’m pretty hyped for that.😁
