Re: The official Jump Square thread

BTW Kirimi, can you scan unfotable and Pat-ken please?

All that will be left to scan is Dragonaut and i'll try scanning that before the second issue arrives.

Hehe. I was going to ask if you needed help in scanning anything. I can scan right away tonight, but my weekends are usually occupied with translation for WJ.

I'll scan Tales of Innocence and Dragonaut, if that's okay? The girls' soccer looks kind of meh to me. Well, if I have time, I'll scan that too, sometime next week, and PAT-KEN. ^^

EDIT: I was bored and wasn't thinking and scanned Dragonaut for some reason. ^^;;; So, uh, that's one more off your list. I'll scan ToI next if I don't hear from you~

Re: The official Jump Square thread

Did the magazine include a One Piece poster?

If it did, I'll have a reason to buy it.

No, it had a Bleach poster. But it does have a One Piece postcard that kirimi posted here.

Re: The official Jump Square thread

Check Kinokuniya, I think they sell it. Anyways the stores are only located in areas with a relatively high Japanese-speaking population like NYC and some cities on the West Coast.

Re: The official Jump Square thread

Here's an ad from WJ #50 for the second issue of JUMP SQ.



It shows a preview of the BLEACH postcard that will be included in the second issue's postcard book, as well as the double-sided poster featuring REBORN! and CLAYMORE. Wooo!!

The series lineup for the second issue is the same as the first issue, with two exceptions: a new series, Shiki (by Fujisaki Ryuu (art) and Ono Fuyumi (novel)) will be starting, and the second commemorative one-shot, Kishibe Rohan wa Ugokanai -Mukabesaka- by Araki Hirohiko will be featured. This is a spin-off story from Jojo's Bizarre Adventure. Since I don't know anything about Jojo, I'm not sure if I romanised 六壁坂 correctly. ^^;

Shiki (Corpse Demon)
This series is about village with a population of about 1300 people, and during one fiercely hot summer, many mysterious incidents happened one after another... Shiki is based on a best-selling horror novel by Ono Fuyumi. Fans may know of her other novels such as Twelve Kingdoms (which has been animated) and Ghost Hunt (adapated to both a shoujo manga and anime). Fujisaki Ryuu is a long-time JUMP mangaka of series such as Houshin Engi (recently released by ViZ), and Waqwaq, both of which ran in WJ.

The second issue of JSQ goes on sale on 4 Dec!

EDIT: The preview at the official site shows different images for the poster. I think the one on the web site is more accurate.

Notice of reprint of 100,000 copies of the first issue

On 2 Nov, the new magazine, JUMP SQUARE was launched (first issue quantity: 500,000 copies). It is highly unusual for a magazine to be reprinted, but in this case, the first issue of JUMP SQUARE will be reprinted.

This was decided due to numerous requests coming in from many bookstores that they were sold out on the first day, and from many readers who were unable to obtain a copy. The last time our company had to reprint the first issue of a magazine was 32 years ago, for the first issue of "Monthly PLAYBOY" in May 1975. All 22,000 copies of the first issue were sold out in the first day.

This has thoroughly proven that the manga put into "JUMP SQUARE" are true favourites, and this is a magazine that is "manga that sells because it's interesting."

Re: The official Jump Square thread

I think that at least for the first six month there will be a new manga that every month will increase the line-up, (even something from Shaman King's Takei Hiroyuki).
Also Beet is going to return on this magazine.
So, this Jump Square has a really solid line-up, I would have preferred Kurohime instead of Pat-Ken (even if I didn't saw it yet), but I'm happy that way.

 

[Maxy Barnard]

Re: The official Jump Square thread

I think the minute Beet returns will be when this becomes better than (or at least equal with) what jump's like nowadays....... except it doesnt have series that are stupidly overpopular killing the smaller ones. tis well balanced

 

[haya5h1]

Re: The official Jump Square thread

I think Shueisha really only needed to reprint the postcards... but maybe that's just me.

 

[Ju-da-su]

Re: The official Jump Square thread

WOW! First time in 30 something years??!! XD

Well . . . many of SQ manga is actually interesting. Have to agree. X3

Re: The official Jump Square thread

Re: The official Jump Square thread

Alright Kirimi. My return date is still set to Friday and Saturday so expect me back by then.



P.S. Since you've scanned ToI already then you should just scan one more series and leave the rest up to me; it'll keep me busy. I have total dibs on Kure-nai so scan either Pat-ken and Unfotable. Then on friday/Saturday I will scan Kure-nai and whatever you don't pick by then. Thanks! ^^

BTW guys, I stumbled upon this on my free-time. It's about beet's hiatus. I wonder what it specifically says though...

Great! I will scan unfotable's soccer series then, since there was a request for it. ^_^

First, it explains that Monthly Shounen JUMP was cancelled, and replaced by Jump Square, etc. So, Beet went on hiatus as well. The author has been unwell and has not completely recovered. So, they haven't decided on a return date for the series. When the series does return, it will be announced on both the home pages of Jump Square and V Jump.

Re: The official Jump Square thread

I believe the injury is a recurring one that struck the artist twice during serialisation prior to this break of his miffle finger breaking apart and the nails coming off.

although there have been rumours of serious illness

Re: The official Jump Square thread

OMG the cover for issue 2 looks awesome! I so got Dibs on Shiki! That'll be first priority on my list once i get my hands on this issue!!

P.S. Just finished scanning Ginpachi, just started scanning Kure-nai and after i'm done with that i'm going to wrap up this issue with Pat-ken.
