Back for one opinion to say: Under Doctor to me is the most boring thing to survive in a long time. Not even upset anymore that Kinato and Alien are gone, I'm more upset that it's staying at this point lol. I truly think it does nothing exceptionally well but just solidly above average at best...
Yeah I'm just tired of WSJ. Things I like are axed, things I don't care about staying. Kinato's early stuff at least felt much better than Under Doctor to me but obviously just a skew in my taste to JP tastes
I'm stepping aside, not reading enough here to follow closely and I don't care about...
Could be wrong but that was always much more popular than Kill Blue lol. More popular than Chainsaw Man? I wouldn't go that far but it feels like comparing Ichi to Kagura versus Shinobi to Kagura.
Makes much more sense Ichi would do better than Kagura versus Shinobi. Makes much more sense...
I'm not a Kill Blue fan in the slightest so I'm obviously more negative but I doubt it. It's hard to predict imo what series generally just, blows up. But ultimately I don't know if a lot of people are going to turn out for a comedy/action series that's already over with no hype to the name...
I don't mean this disrespectfully but based solely on openings and trailers, the Kill Blue adaptation looks leagues better than Sakamoto Days which is... interesting to say the least lol. Idk if they thought this series would blow up more but yeah, good for Fujimaki I suppose
Also, I am a Kpop...
Tbf, the studio used to do gaming and animation. They just announced recently they're completely moving to just animation. IF KB is under the studio, kinda says to me they wanna invest all their time and resources into it
There's pessimism and there's blind optimism. I think calling the funeral on Under Doctor is pessimism. It got a color page, this is pretty much the worst chapters so it's probably going to rank better. Saying Kinato is in any position to succeed is blind optimism. It's my fav of the batch and...
I feel like there's a lot of strong opinions here.
On the negative side: Look, jump has all the data and knows what is gonna live and what is gonna flop. I have to trust that a business that's been alive this long knows what its doing for the most part. That being said, the decision with the...
Seems like new batch is dead, especially after how much everyone raved it was the best in a while lol
Under Doctor still has a chance with that color page and it's the worst chapters being ranked rn but yessh
Not saying he's going to fail but I absolutely see a future where Sorachi gets axed despite selling more than like Under Doctor Volume 1, but the TOC is bad so they axe the series.
Cause usually every year we need the next example of "Jump doesn't know what they're doing" from Western...
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
