Yeah yeah, current line up is alright and whatnot. Sakamoto, Mashle, ES are great. Magu/HSF will die sooner or later. Roboco is Nak's illicit child. Gege, please live.
Shaman King franchise was dying. Just like Toriko's franchise was basically dying, so it got canned. Just like Beelzebub or literally just like any series that runs long enough way past it's prime getting canned.
There was also obvious drama between the mangaka and WSJ, in Shaman King's case...
As long as people don't post illogical arguments like you did before, I'm good. I didn't respond during the vast majority of the discussion. My sole response was to you and your hilarious comparison between S8 and PS circumstances.
Nothing is more cringe than people trying to sound logical by...
Eh. I don't care enough to go back and prove how insecure Yoza fans were and how whiny they were back then.
I literally just wanted to point how there is 0% logic in what Minsel said. I'm done with this discussion.
Yes. Twitter threads. The social media platform populated by the most logical, well behaved and reasonable user base. Lol.
Your bias for Yoza is blinding you from the fact that Yoza fans whined every week. It was just drowned out because there were far bigger things happening in WSJ at that...
Almost as if Yoza fans came here and whined week after week about low placements, lack of promotion etc for the first year of serialization. Fans do it all the time here.
But is that your excuse for your profoundly bad arguments? Because those two aren't related at all.
LMAO!
Your argument is that WSJ overprinted Phantom Seer once and then said "Okay, we definitely overprinted but we are gonna keep reprinting this few more times".
If you cannot see the problem with this selective narrative, then yikes.
All those hours talking about sales and backlogs here and...
1. Oricon doesn't track online retailers.
2. Most importantly, things don't stop selling when they are outside Shoseki 500 and then magically require reprints.
Yozakura keeps going out of Shoseki. Why is it still getting reprints? Because it's selling outside of Top 500.
What even are these...
Yes. Comparing a case of overprinting one volume (of S8) that ended up vastly underperforming to the circulation of 2 volumes of a series because it has gotten multiple reprints to get there is the same exact thing.
This has to be the poorest take I've seen in a while.
This is not even remotely true.
Shueisha spends most of their money promoting their product releases ie. manga volume releases not WSJ issue releases.
WSJ exists solely as a platform to provide their products (manga) maximum possible exposure at once.
And there have only been 2 instances of...
It's not even about if any promotion would've had any effect on it. Leave that argument aside.
It's simply about you promoting your new IP, in this case a manga. That's literally WSJ's whole purpose. To sell manga, its products.
That's where the incompetence lies. In the fact that he's not...
The mental gymnastics some of ya'll are showing trying to defend PS's lack of promotion or push is commendable, not gonna lie.
Mashle should definitely be getting 1M circulation announcement with the next volume.
Lmao at the timing of this post.
All the doom posting of PS and downplaying what it's doing. But here we are, 100K circulation with 2 Volumes.
Imagine not giving this a CP.
Further proof of Nak's incompetence.
