1day refers to the 3 magazines of Kodansha named after a part of a day (morning, afternoon, evening). I'm not sure if there is an editorial coherence between the 3, Kaiten probably knows more about that
fx comic is the label under which are printed the manga prepublished in Manga Erotics F in particular

The early spoiler provier for Medaka Box that gives correct spoilers Medaka Box 1 day before even the other famous series like One Piece, Naruto and Bleach told us where Medaka ranked this week. He never gives out the TOC or spoilers for any other series, but he did say where Medaka Box's position was this week and that it was third from the back.

He also said that the oneshot published in the 21-22 Double Issue will be written by KAITO.
KAITO wrote the oneshot Cross Manage which was published in the 2011 Winter Jump NEXT!

St&rs and Genson! are possible candidates for the last two.

Definately.

There is also some speculation going around that Inumaru Dashi might be ending soon because of the development that happened in the latest chapter.

I don`t care about Inumaru Dashi. Hope that nura and kuroko aren`t in bottom again.

Volume 18 should begin from chapter 152 and volume 19 would be start from 161. That mean's volume 20 should start from chapter 170, so Bakuman should end in chapter 178 which mean volume 20 will be a final volume.

I highly doubt that it'll continue until volume 21 because if then, it really has nothing to talk about. So, I think Bakuman should end around early to middle of May.

Wouldn't Jump announce the end of Bakuman 4 weeks before at least?

Jump don't announce how many chapters left before end, like Magazine.

Than you didn't need to mention your disregard towards Inumaru. :P And St&rs being a last place candidate isn't really noteworthy, since it got that place for months now.

Kaito's Anti Love Sentai wasn quiet funny, but I wish he'll be drawing "more" backgrounds this time and less sketches. Couldn't find any info about Cross Manage though.

Yeah IIRC JUMP endings basically just slap your face!! Be thankful if they announce a series is ending a week prior to its ending.

Well, it is not a slap your face. You can expect the series will end based on the story flow.

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

Really? Try and guess when Naruto is ending then. This is more than likely the last arc but when the arc actually ends is anyone's guess.

I'm not saying like predicting the end of series if it is in a final arc; I mean the series that most likely going to end in this or upcoming session like St&rs and Bakuman. I do agree that Naruto is most likely in final arc; but, it doesn't mean it will end within few months.

To Love Ru, Yu Yu Hakusho, Hikaru No Go, Dragon Ball, Slam Dunk, Shaman King not to mention every cancelled manga ever.. All predictable endings, yeah..
Not all manga end when the main goals have been reached.. Some just end..

And even mangakas finish their works diferently.. I.e. Yoshihiro Togashi, without spoiling he is infamous for how he ended his previous work, Yu Yu Hakusho, and his current work Hunter X Hunter could have been finished with a satisfying ending in the last couple of chapters, yet Togashi decided to continue HXH.

Then there are some mangas like BLEACH that well.. Basically could have ended ages ago but continued.

TL: DR most of the times manga endings aren't that predictable. Especially in a series that doesn't really have a main objective, i.e. YYH, BLEACH, To Love Ru, Dragon Bal.. vs Naruto, OP, Bakuman (all with main goals basically set since its first chapter)

Yeah, I agree with your statement. There are some series that are difficult to predict its ending.

However, there are other factor to help the series' ending; it is Jump has a specific period for its ending/cancellation session and putting a new series. Jump has a specific time period which helpful to predict when the serie will end.

Magazine and Sunday tend to end the series and put new series at any time. For example, Sunday recently started three new series without ending anything; plus Sunday has four irregularly serializing series which can resume at any time.

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

I am curious. What exactly is the main goal in Naruto? Bakuman and One Piece are clear, but Naruto?

 

[perroloco]

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

Being a hokage at first.. Though gradually that kinda changed to "rescuing" Sasuke.. Still the main goal is Naruto achieving Hokage.

 

[Drmke]

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

Yeah....the Hokage thing was in the first chapter. I was under the impression it was pretty obvious.

 

[Ikzer]

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

Yeah, I know that Naruto said that, but I never really thought throughout the serie that he really was aiming for it, having the opposite in One Piece where their only and unique goal is reaching, well, the One Piece.

 

[wintercry]

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

Actually it's rescue Sasuke then become Hokage. Something about what's the point of being a Hokage who can't even save his comrade

 

[Kaiten]

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

Actually it is the power of friendship vs. the power of hatred. Has been since the beginning of the series, as far back as the Land of Waves arc. Naruto has always represented friendship, acceptance, tolerance, etc. while his enemies were always overcome by feelings of anger, hatred, vengeance, fear, and jealousy. Zabuza, Gara, Orochimaru, Akatsuki, Pain, Sasuke, and Tobi all fit that description. The series ends with the war because a victory by Naruto symbolizes friendship overcoming hatred. His goal of becoming Hokage never had the literal importance that everyone always places on it. It was meant to symbolize that Naruto's ambition is for the top and nothing less. His goal of becoming Hokage has never had any impact on actually events within the story.
