Shounen Jump Issue #50 announced that Medaka Box will be getting a Novel!

considering who the author of the manga is im not surprised at all but it should be good since it will likely have the same author nisioisn doing it.

i dont recognise the director....and when i wiki'd and looked at ann for his name he didnt have a result....which can only mean hes a new guy oh well maybe the other staff will be gainax regulers. the key visual art however does look good.
the toc looks about as i expected it so no surprise. st%rs is defenitley going to be axed with its poor sales and bad ranking.

Actually I checked the directors name using the kanji instead of relying on google translator(piece of crap). His name is Shouji Saeki(google translate gave me a completely different first name) The guy directed This Ugly and Beautiful World, He is My Master, and a few episodes of FLCL and Gurren Laggan so he's a Gainax regular it would seem. Still would have been nice if it was Imashi though...

As for the TOC, there's nothing too surprising going on, though it looks like Nura's left the doghouse and St&rs and Harisugawa are headed there. Magico looks like it could be in trouble too. It just really isn't a good time to be a new series in JUMP it seems...

The Cover from Sket Dance is really cool, i'm looking forward too see the color page.
Gintama is very high again
I hope Beelzebub rise up, i can't belive that the story is so worse now.
Bakuman is high again, i think i should read it. And it seems kurogane is doing well so far.

Re: Weekly Shonen Jump [2011] - Discussion and TOC Talk - Part 2

This week's St&rs ranking is based on chapter 12 or 13; I started to get why those chapters are so rushed. I think the reason is the examination arc didn't have good reception, so the editors must told the authors to end the arc quickly to move to their actual school life as soon as possible. Since, the pace of this series has settled down, so I'm looking forward on how it'll do in this arc.

For Beelzebub, the ranking is based on its (another) training-arc. So, as soon as the recent chapters got ranked, I think Beelzebub can restore its ranking.

The Kuroko no Basket and Medaka Box Anime's will both begin broadcasting in April together.

I also just purchased ST&RS volume 1 and it was really enjoyable. I'll be sad to see if it gets cancelled but i'm expecting it to happen.

Do we consider SPoT as Jump anime or SQ anime?

i think we should probably classify it as a SQ anime since unlike its last series its not in jump.

Re: Weekly Shonen Jump [2011] - Discussion and TOC Talk - Part 2

The One Piece movie Strong World wil be broadcasting on Fuji T/V November 19th, 9:00pm.

Some important news will also be announced at that time. There is some speculation that it might be another movie announcement.

While ago I see a list with the selling numbers of the most important Shonen Jump titles (old one too like DB, JoJo or HnK).
Does anyone know where I can find it? Possibly updated?

Re: Weekly Shonen Jump [2011] - Discussion and TOC Talk - Part 2

Every week in a certain thread on 2ch. Members rate the Jump series from 1-5 (with 1 being the least interesting and 5 being the most interesting) and a certain person accumulates of the votes together. These are not an actual reflection on how the series will do when the actual rankings come but are nice to see how the Japanese intertenters think about the current chapters.

Re: Weekly Shonen Jump [2011] - Discussion and TOC Talk - Part 2

I agree in some parts of this poll.

Spoiler

Kurogane is currently the most boring manga to read in Jump. The Arcobaleno Arc of Reborn is quite entertaining but that chapter of Tsuna and his Dad is not that good. One Piece is just throwing random fights and I'm glad Oda finished it in this week's chapter. It looks like Jinbei will be the new nakama and I'm not happy about it. They need Weakihoshi instead of him. And on Bleach, things get more clearer and clearer which is good. HxH Aluka chapters are as good as the latest Naruto chapters. And on that rivalry, I choose Kagami no Kuni instead of Nisekoi.

↑ In the future, remember to add a spoiler tag when talking about a chapter of a series in detail.

Reborn has broken the top 5 so it seems that the current arc is doing pretty well. Here's hoping it won't go downhill in the latter half. I can breathe easily at Nurarihyon's ranking.

Boo at Beelzebub and ST&RS' rankings.

Re: Weekly Shonen Jump [2011] - Discussion and TOC Talk - Part 2

One Piece place being so low makes me wonder. The current arc displeases more One Piece fans than usual ; it seems the same on 2ch but we still have to see it in the TOC. Bleach and Bakuman place was seriously impacted by their weak plot but so far One Piece is not. Maybe it's too early since the most hated chapters are yet to be ranked but still that is a huge difference !
And seriously Beelzebub third from the last with 48 issue chapter ! If it's I suck at math we are talking about I really don't understand.

Re: Weekly Shonen Jump [2011] - Discussion and TOC Talk - Part 2

A well deserved first place for Hunter x Hunter, so far the new arc has been brilliant. Fishman Island has been a bit of a disappointment but I would not put it that low. Fishman Island, Skypeia, and Davey Back are my least favorite arcs of the Grand Line.

I got to agree with HxH's and Reborn! position. KHR been painfully boring these last 3 chapters... ugh. HxH on the other hand is more interesting than anything else i read atm.

Re: Weekly Shonen Jump [2011] - Discussion and TOC Talk - Part 2

Uh not really. From what I know, Most japan netizens have been constant haters of op since before and most of them really like naruto.
They find op generic..and they are the same people who are huge fans of vns, moe stuff etc(do I need to mention the otaku/neet population?). To put it short, they don't really care about jump series..at least a majority of jump series. On the other hand the people who actually vote for the ToC is not made up netizens, the netizens really make a small group of voters. Kurogane hate seems to be from the fact that the author is not so popular online..and maybe it not so brilliant story, I'm not sure because I'm not up to date.
I don't have any source to what I said, just my 2 cents.
Also I don't find the current op arc bad at all. It's not the best but it's good esp when I look at the larger picture oda is trying to show.
