Mag Talk Weekly Shonen Jump [2017] - Discussion and TOC Talk

[TyVip]

Full Drive takes too much "inspiration" from PoT. Especially the upperclassman.

Kimetsu first place, that's some good shit right there. Also, it seems like MHA is going to be a high middle ranker from now on, since it hasn't ranked high in a while.

Finally Haikyuu getting a low ranking, the manga has been terrible lately

Yeah, I've been thinking that as well. Not terrible, but not great. But the recent chapter about the twins was much needed to be able to connect with them better. Before, they were kinda just there, but now they seem like actual characters.

Man, I wish the Samon mangaka had a personal twitter.

Haikyuu has completely gone off the rails this match. A shame really.

I love Shun Numa. Really looking forward to this next one-shot. His art style and comedy are just so good.

 

[shoyoboyo]

Yeah it's really a shame it didn't stick around. A new scanlated chapter released a few weeks ago and I got happy but then I got sad because I remembered that it already ended.

 

[OfficialHxH]

Yo shoutout to Heiji. I see him all over magazine forums putting out news asap. Really appreciated man

I love Shun Numa. Really looking forward to this next one-shot.

Same here. The art style is very distinctive, which I appreciate. Is there any info about what the one-shot is about besides that picture?

Yeah it's really a shame it didn't stick around. A new scanlated chapter released a few weeks ago and I got happy but then I got sad because I remembered that it already ended.

If you're talking about Samon still, then I agree. Chapter 59 was actually just released yesterday or the day before in English. I saw it on Reddit, and the translator said that he's aiming for a chapter to be released every Saturday until completion.

Oh cool, thanks for the heads up. Must have missed that chapter then.

ゆらぎアニメ続報1号にて発表

Announcement about the Yuragi anime will be in Issue 1 (next issue).
This was with the MHA S3 news too.

 

[DJBlitzkrieg]

Decided to post here to say that Kimetsu's ranking is 100% deserved since in my opinion, the current arc easily surpasses the Spider Arc (which is regarded as the best arc of the manga by most).

Some anon posted the average rankings for 2017 on /a/.

Spoiler: 2017 Avg Ranks

Average of 2017

1 One Piece 1.71
2 Hero Academia 3.5
3 Neverland 3.59
4 Black Clover 3.81
5 Dr. Stone 3.83
6 Kimetsu 3.94
7 Haikyū 4.72
8 Sesuji 6.71
9 Sōma 6.78
10 Hinomaru 7.47
11 BokuBen 7.54
12 Saiki 7.56
13 Yūna-san 7.769
14 Lycopene 8
15 Robot 8.27
16 Gintama 8.76
17 Samon-kun 9.4
18 Hunter × Hunter 9.67
19 No. 01 9.67
20 Amalgam 12.22
21 Ole Golazo 12.4
22 Shūdan 12.47
23 Poro 13.3
24 Marie 13.33
25 Cross Account 13.44
26 Demon's Plan 13.6
27 U19 13.9

Interesting to see that despite the mediocre rankings for MHA, it still barely managed to average out to 2nd place.
Cross Account is ranked lower than 4 manga that were axed, yet it's still here. Really makes you think.
I also, didn't realize that Sesuji actually ranked better than I thought. I imagined it would average 8.5ish
I think the top 5 would be perfect if Kimetsu and Black Clover were swapped but hey, what can you do.

Looks like Nobuhiro Watsuki (Rurouni Kenshin author) is charged with possession of child pornography: https://headlines.yahoo.co.jp/hl?a=20171121-00050067-yom-soci

 

[shoyoboyo]

What the fuck

 

[savethecat]

RIP to Kenshin's return I guess

 

[Tanzo]

"Shimabu" is also trending on Twitter along with RuroKen and Watsuki

[Nemesis]

A collaboration between Yuna and WNL is great.

And what the fuck is this about Watsuki.

 

[Scruffy8642]

Lol, guess I'm not the only one who thought of Shimabu the second I saw this .

 

[OfficialHxH]

I guess no more Hokkaido in Jump lol
