Mag Talk Weekly Shonen Jump [2011] - Discussion and TOC Talk - Part 1

[ick]

Last Toriko's share was of 6,3. It's the seventh most watched tv anime and he's over Pokémon, Precure and Tamagotchi. I don't think they will change so easily his slot in FujiTV.

 

[xNothingx]

Excuse me, but the ToC in #33 is the ranking for series in #32 or in #24?

I still don't get the 8-week rule so well ._____.

The first OP in Toriko has clips of stuff happening like 2 arcs from now and characters that show up way later. It's not gonna end anytime soon. HXH will probably air on another channel at another time. It's not a kids show, especially not the brutal killing and eating people and sticking needles in their brains that happen in the Chimera Ant arc. It wouldn't fit in that Saturday morning timeslot aimed toward kids where they can only show a little bit of blood.

 

[Bomber D Rufi]

*sigh* I was hoping they'd at least get Toshihiko Sahashi to do the BGM. You know that one theme that plays during the previews? I love that song. Hell all of HXH's OSTS were things of beauty.

I'm trying not to be disapointed until it actually starts airing though, cause besides changing up a lot of stuff this is good news for the franchise. Although I don't think my heart can take it if a new VA crew ends up taking over too...which is exactly what appears to be the case.

Sad that me whining happens to be my 900th post. :-P Sad and ironic.

EDIT.

So we have Tiger and Bunny's ost creator, and Nichijou's writer on this. Now I'm REALLY not sure what to think. Though two of the guys on this are behind Ninja scroll, so that's a good thing right? The character designer's kind of got me a little scared though. Just stick with Togashi's designs, for the love of god.

Madhouse has done 4 anime adaptions of Shounen-Mangas: Hajime No Ippo, Neuro, Claymore and Death Note. For myself, I have watched Hajime No Ippo and Death Note and these was good ( DN ) to great (HNO) adaption, which I saw of them.

Madhouse has made many animations like "Black Lagoon" or "Monster", which are more Seinen as Shounen. It would be nice, that they have more "famouse" shounen animes in thei lists. Besides that, they make more High-Budget-Animes as Toei or Studio Pierrot.


Anyway, what about the ToC this week ? Any news of that ?

 

[Crude]

Yeah it all depends on which animation team handles the series. A great way to get a look at some of Madhouse's animation styles is by watching the series Aoi Bungaku. It's an anthology series, each story handled by a team of animators. I would love for the team that animated Run Melos! work on Hunter x Hunter. I definitely wouldn't mind on the team that worked on Death Note either. And animation wise, Neuro was pretty good, but quite average compared to other Madhouse shows.

[raDar]

Oh, Bleach and Reborn is in it again, meh... And wow at Magico getting the CP twice in three weeks for the second time...

 

[Rejuvenation]

Medaka barely missed getting out of the bottom 5. Better luck next week. Mago finally got out again so good for it. Sket looks low but I had to check again to see that its actually in 5th place. Not a bad ranking.

So much for Bleach making some come back like people were expecting after the color pages. Dropping back into the bottom 5 is entertaining and deserving. Reborn in the bottom 5 again isn't surprising. No problems there. Looks like Ikkyu is the new cushion after all. I can't say I'm too surprised. Magico finally finds itself in the bottom 5. Lets see if it can pull itself up next week or if its finally crashing.

 

[jorped]

I still don't quite understand how the hell Naruto hasn't been getting 1ºPlace lately. This chapters that are now being ranked were quite interesting and i really thought that they would rank first place.

 

[Nayrael]

Pure rankings:

01. One Piece
02. Naruto
03. Toriko
04. Beelzebub
05. Sket Dance
06. Gintama
07. Inumaru Dashi
08. Nurarihyon no Mago
09. Enigma
10. Medaka Box
11. Reborn!
12. Bleach
13. Magico
14. Hanasaka Ikkyuu

5 more chapters till ranked: Harisugawa in Mirror World
4 more chapters till ranked: ST&RS


Big 3 are still big 3, Beelzebub is holding well, Nura jumped quite a bit, Bleach failling as usual, Magico and Hanasaka Ikkyuu seem to be turning into pillows...

don't worry it will get there .... as always i'm sad to see where bleach is at, this way it may actually be moved or canceled

 

[Jaymie]

Ouch for Magico. That must've been a really bad chapter. Bleach is still in the Bottom Five. Reborn! dropped quite a bit as well.

Enigma and Mago are hovering above the Bottom Five, but at least they're out of it.

 

[ZayCon]

I really like this weeks TOC a lot!

Top 3 is very good, even though I would prefer Toriko being in second place.

Beelzebub on fourth is also enjoyable.

Enigma on ninth is also good, as it's not really near the bottom.

The bottom 4 (I don't read Medaka Box) is very good! Either Reborn! or Bleach has deserved more than that lately. I'm actually still hoping the rankings will be a wake-up call for them, but it doesn't really seems like it'll happen. It's a shame that Magico is so poorly ranked, but the latest chapters hasn't really been any good, as the manga has turned into a generic and bad fighting manga. Ikkyuu on last is also good. I loved the one-shot, but the manga has been really poor.

 

[Finestela]

I don't know, I'm a bit sad about Magico, but the chapter being ranked here isn't the "generic and bad fighting" chapters you're talking about. Chapter 14 isn't remotely generic fighting in any sense of the word.

 

[BianchiChrome]

Hello!

I believe that Reborn! rankings will get much higher especially after the the current chapter and the last two chapters.

 

[Galactic Tomahawk]

Wow.

I was expecting Magico to take a hit soon but I didn't think it'd be that drastic.

 

[Divinenega]

Well Enigma's not in the bottom five so as far as I;m concerned this is a good week. Bleach is way towards the bottom where it deserves to be, and while I;m not completely happy with the exact placement, Reborn has had a drop in quality(which should hopefully cease with the Inheritance arc finally being over) so it deserves to be a bit lower on the poll.

I;m also not as upset as I thought I;d be about Magico being low in the rankings this week, I know it;s not polling the current arc, but the series is starting to lose some of it;s spark in a way. Rather than world building, or putting some actual focus on the romance aspect since it is partially that genre, it;s just devolved into mindless fighting without any real buildup for the arcs anymore. Hopefully it;ll improve but...

My only complain this week is Medaka being in the bottom five, but it;s not in any real danger at the moment anyway so it's not a problem. Wonder when it;ll get that color page for the 2nd popularity poll...

I still don't quite understand how the hell Naruto hasn't been getting 1ºPlace lately. This chapters that are now being ranked were quite interesting and i really thought that they would rank first place.

well One Piece gets most of the top spots, it's rare for any other series to beat it. Expect the "fanservice" chapters to stand a good chance, it wouldn't surprise me if Naruto gets the number one spot as soon as Itachi plays a bigger role (aka the coming chapter). And when Sasuke pops up, it will very likely get another top spot
Still I agree with you, I thought the chapters were definitely more interesting as f.ex. One Piece, which were rather boring.


Glad to see Mago and Enigma out of the bottom 5, both are very enjoyable and interesting right now.

Good to see Reborn down there, the last arc was a complete disaster. Only interesting thing was Deamon, whose character was ruined thanks to a boring fight and a very cliche backstory Hope Amano will get back to the good times with the upcoming new arc.

Magico is getting boring in a rapid pace, so the bottom spot is deserved. If the next chapters don't improve I wouldn't mind if it gets canceled.
Hanasaka is as good as doomed now, I can't imagine that it will recover :/

 

[Jaiden82]

Ah man what the hell happened to Magico? It was doing so well. Major drop by Reborn from last week. Awww Bleach, my sweet how long is this going to continue. I thought last week it would start to make a turn for the better but to no avail. Hopefully next week. Nura is finally out of the bottom and HxH is out back next week.
