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

How old was he when he won the award? Apparently he's the youngest mangaka in Jump right now isn't he?
afaik he's 22 right now, so that would make him around 19 y.o.

my favorite cover for the next month's releases is from Nuramago, then One Piece. Kurogane could use a darker bg imo. As usual Toriko's cover isn't anything special.

Shiibashi-sensei is absolutely the best Jump artist right now, all his work are beautiful.

I find his cover a bit overloaded, well, it's like his manga i guess. To me, the best cover is Gintama. Reusing cover was done by Oda too, but it fits the plot perfectly for Gintama.

i totally agree. his art is especially awesome whenever he incorporates traditional japanese art (esp. during the action scenes). which is why whenever naruto attempts to do the same, i always end up giggling. xD

i love kyosai's mini-arc, i'd totally buy the volume if i were in japan. sadly, i can only rely on viz releases.

It's easy to agree on what's objectively bad, and it's much harder to determine which artwork is the best. :) Each of the WSJ line-up have a unique and different style that sets them apart from others in the magazine.

I find his cover a bit overloaded, well, it's like his manga i guess. To me, the best cover is Gintama. Reusing cover was done by Oda too, but it fits the plot perfectly for Gintama.
At least the covers almost always have a white background. ;) The overloaded feeling in the monochrome pages might be because he uses a lot of black inking to create a scary atmosphere- at least in my opinion.

Mago covers always have a prominent character in color and a some bnw yokai bg (like a hyakki yako). You can line up the volume covers and it'll form one complete image (like DBZ's spine), so it ALWAYS has a white background with some black inking.

For One piece you mean ? It's the tankobon of the time skip. The color spread for the chapter is also a reused of the first one. I'm to lazy to link but they should have all of them at the wiki

Gintoki's evil robotic twin Kintoki. If you read Gintama you should read that arc as it is nothing short of a masterpiece.

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

Manga-News Japan tweeted Bleach débutera son dernier arc dans le Shônen Jump 11 (13/02). Donc la série pourrait se terminer cette année.

Bleach will begin his final bow in the Shonen Jump 11 (13/02). So the series could end this year.

What? Series final? Please translate :gwah

Manga-News Japan tweeted Kagami no Kuni no Harisugawa de Yasuhiro Kanô devrait se terminer dans le Shônen Jump 11 (13/02).

Kagami no Kuni no Harisugawa of Yasuhiro Kano should end in Shonen Jump 11 (13/02).

Was that speculation?

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

Yay, my predictions about Bleach and Nisekoi came true :D I'm guessing the Kurogane chapter next week will probably be a bit more romance orientated, since it's being released on Valentine's day.

I'm a bit suprised about all the promotion Kurogane is getting, volume 1 sold very bad and the pre-orders for the upcoming volume 2 are even worse. But I guess it has been ranking really well since it began (except for 1 week).

I'm also not a fan of Pakki, so I won't really miss it. I'm looking foward to hopefully 3 new series (Hungry Joker?) starting in the upcoming weeks and of course Bleach's new arc.

Since Kurogane is getting many color pages, I'm surprised that it is not getting a lead color page.

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

Also just noticed that the pre-orders for the new volume of Magico has gone up alot. Volume 1-3 remained pretty much constant so it must have gotten a faor increase in fans lately.

I'm also more surprised about Kurogane. Usually series that poll well will have a second volume with equal or even greater pre-orders than the first volume, but volume 2 has quite a decrease.

Woo, Toriko got even above OP this week. That's really something.
Gintama and Beelzebub also doing really well.

Bad news for Pakky and Harisugawa, though. If the speculation about Harisugawa ending is true, this could be a sign of it.
Nisekoi is the only new manga that looks like it's holding up well. Kurogane looks like it'll survive at least.

Indeed Toriko first without Naruto or One Piece having a color page is pretty rare. I guess japanese readers enjoyed the casino arc like we did.
Paki in last place is new, if it continues and Harisugawa stops next week, I would say that Magico is pretty much safe now for this round.
