It is so damn hilarious how Honoka won but Ono decided to draw Himari in his last author message lol (or that the editor decided to put Himari there)

Curious to see what we will see from the newest batch, if we get a few more hits in it.

Also kinda surprised it was Under Doctor that broke the winter debut curse that was going on. That happened after Akane Banashi debuted, any series that launched got axed. So kinda happy that we are seeing a change in that.

Tbh, while I say congrats to Under Doctor for doing good on the sales chart, I completely don't understand why it's charting so well and whether we're dealing with scalpers or grade schoolers.

Both Kota Kawae & Mitarashi Santa left comments for the end of Hima-Ten in this Weekly Shonen Jump Issue #31:

Kawae: "I've always felt a sense of defeat when it comes to the cuteness and skill with which Ono-san draws girls."





Santa: "Congratulations on completing Hima-Ten! Thank you for providing us with so much cuteness every week!"

UD sells 20k and they still want to cancel it, while Kiyoshi gets the cover and color pages despite low sales?

And is constantly repeating poop jokes like 2B does any more fun?

Roku just kept putting up big text the whole time and claims he was developing characters.
I hate class b2 as well, there’s no way this is not a push from the magazine just because is gintama’s author. But this manga is terrible
--- Double Post Merged, , Original Post Date: ---

ROKKUUUUU YESSS, love it.


As for Drawn to the Fire, it probably would have done better if it did the chapters it's doing right now first, instead of hastily running into a scrimmage vs rivals who were rushed into the story for the sake of being rivals just so the series could have a match.
It repeated the same structure Kuroko made, don’t know why people didn’t like it

Unrelated but Blue Lock backlog boost is crazy. Can you imagine if Japan wins the World Cup?

Jump is really losing out on that World Cup money.
And they were too late on the F1 as well, since this year Yuki Tsunoda is not racing lol

People keep hyping Sorachi up as a "writing genius and the best Jump mangaka" because of Gintama, only for him to put out a manga where the characters spend most of their time making poop jokes.

And Roku isn't much better; people argue that the manga excels at character development by focusing on a different ghost in each chapter, but it gets tedious and exhausting—after all, the author doesn't even care about developing an actual storyline.

You guys really don't like comedy, huh? Sorachi is a genius mangaka regardless of what you think about some poop jokes that come on 2B because only him could write an enticing story using comedy.

He’s a great mangaka, but his new manga is trash

If the real point of the series is to develop the relationship between characters, the there is nothing to worry about an actual storyline. I think it eventually have some arcs with some chapters of real storyline, but it will be a series about characters and their interaction regardless of actual time.
