    Out out curiosity did anyone actually release reliable data about digital sales numbers? Is there incentive or disincentive to?

    Jump has had a history of running sexually charged and fan service heavy series. So I would assume there is technically nothing stopping authors from at least implying that their characters, (adult) protagonists in particular, have sexual experience right? Or as a magazine ostensibly aimed at...

    Not the comments themselves. But the number of twitter comments can be used to gauge the activity surrounding the subject.

    Just how much online presence does BC actually have? It doesn't seem like much even compared to its contemporaries. Even Kimetsu seemed to have a stronger and generally more positive presence than BC despite selling fewer copies.

    I wish we had a good Ace Attorney style mystery manga.

    Sorry what? Forgive my saying this but that is a dangerous line of thinking prone to slippery slope reasoning and assumes a false dichotomy both from the perspective of the consumer and producer.

    Is there a reason that Jump editorial is so focused on print numbers? What kind of advantage does it offer them over electronic copies?

    I can't help but feel that the approach they intend to take is rather dated and overly simplistic.

    Ok I'll refrain from talking about BC as much as possible but I would like like some thoughts on what will realistically change even if the Studio Pierrot does get a slew of Fate Apocrypha animators.

    Even if the anime does get a entire slew of new animators, even under the most optimistic of circumstances, realistically what will it change? Even if the show does develop a reputation of pumping out great animation consistently, it'll be difficult to overcome the memetically infamous first...

    Would you mind giving some examples of which Princes do you think are compelling? I am not trying to challenge your opinion here. I am genuinely curious because maybe I'm not seeing the same things you are.

    I don't think its the degree of complexity or the amount of detail that goes into the strategy is issue of contention here. I think the main issue is that Togashi is focusing so much on the thinking process and strategies (which may not be that complex to begin with), it comes at the cost of...

    For me it feels like Togashi is bored of Hunter x Hunter. Not that the writing is lazy, far from it. But it feels like the stuff he's writing this past arc and perhaps before it pretty much abandoned what HxH had been up until this point. For me it was exploring the world through the eyes of...

    MHA and Haikyuu appear to share similar circumstances when it comes to their position in the ToCs. By virtue of popularity of sales alone they should be in the top positions along with One Piece. However like Nemesis says there is an element of marketing involved so I wouldn't take the ToCs, as...
