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

[Animeace]

Hunter in the bottom 5 again not surprised been boring guess if it continues to tank it will go on Hiatus again. Looking like St&rs will be the first to bight it now if Enigma can just hang in there a little longer.

 

[kewl0210]

Hunter is almost always low ranked because of the hiatuses, causing it to have most of its audience getting the volumes. I really think the recent events have been amazing, though.

Even though Kuroko is getting an anime it still dwells at that 5th or so spot. Perhaps once the anime starts it'll do a little better.

So Hungry Joker win this year's Golden Future Cup. Hungry Joker isn't bad, but I hoped Murahagane to win.

Competitive Dance Club is a Oneshoot and thus not ranked
Bleach (~c461), Beelzebub (~c121) not ranked due to having a Color Page

Yes, I am including Kochikame and HxH now. While neither will likely get canceled, their positions in ToC make it unlikely that it is not affected by the ranking system. But even if they aren't in danger, WSJ will probably be a little bit more kind to series that rank better than those in Bottom 5 than if they rank worse.
Also added the "~" symbol behind chapter numbers to make sure that it is not necessary that exact chapter that is ranked. Might make some less happy to complain about the "8 chapters" rule.

P.S. I just remembered hearing once how Kochikame is not even offered as an option in questionaries. Can anyone confirm this?

 

[Estranho]

I'm not sure about the ranking of the other One Shots in Golden Cup, the image is too blurry for me.
Someone?

 

[SoulEaterFreak]

Haha =D It was obvious the chapter with

Spoiler

Sasuke

would take first place (I counted 8 chapter...560-559-558-557-556-555-554-553)

 

[Reith]

What a good start to Kurogane, but St&rs also have the same and now is dead last.

 

[Sky Render]

What's up with Magico being so high alluvasudden... and Harisugawa is going down. Oh well, might be just an one-chapter downfall.

 

[Jaiden82]

Nice TOC. Naruto taking the #1 spot should be no surprise. Don't believe the Kurogane will stay in the top 10 for long. Reborn slipped to 7th this week while Bakuman remains in 9th (dammit). Glad Magico and Mago avoided the bottom this week with Harisugawa behind them. Though I think it will rebound. Poor ST&RS I really don't want it to get cancelled, its good and it really just needs more time to gain more fans.

 

[Sayaendo]

Man, I really want to read Hungry Joker now. Still no translation for that one?

 

[Divinenega]

I;m sort of surprised Kurogane is doing well. I mean it isn;t bad or anything, but I figured with Kuroko now being the big JUMP sports series, interest in a replacement would have died down. It;s cool though, and hopefully the series will continue to get better.

And I guess Magico's low rankings over the last few weeks really was just the readers utterly despising that one story arc(I did too). I personally don;t think it;s really improved enough to go all the way back to the safe zone, but at this point at least one or two of the newer series need to live, and it will probably get better.

Everything else on the rankings is kind of where it should be surprisingly.

 

[Rejuvenation]

One Piece and Toriko in the top 3 as it should be. Sket Dance seems to be making a home in the top 5 which makes me really happy. Bakuman seems to have bounced back from its lull in quality. Magico has risen too and saved itself from getting killed in the process. Of course I'm mainly happy about Medaka's continued stability in the middle ranks as of late.

St&rs and Enigma are the next ones to go from the looks of it. Also figures that just as I start reading Harusigawa it goes and starts declining in rank. Should have just waited a year like I was intending from the start. Kurogane starts high but whether it stays there or levels off remains to be seen.

I'll be happy with the Bakuman and Toriko colors next week.

 

[Newkerzy]

It's not that bad. The chapter that was ranked was actually a pretty slow chapter, so it's understandable. But the fact that it barely missed the bottom 5 says something. Because I would think that chapter might probably be in the bottom 5 or maybe should have been in bottom 5. I think Harisugawa has a steady fanbase as of now.

 

[Mr. Prince]

I couldn't care less about the TOC... HUNGRY JOKER, f*ck yeah!!! I was sooo totally rooting for the series but I had a feeling that Murahagane and WOLF x RED had better feedback around 2ch and the likes. But damn, now I'm so happy and thrilled.

Congrats to this well deserved victory. I hope it will make a great series, it's got the potential to do so!

 

[Drmke]

Kurogane!! It's a solid sports series with potential. Has more mass appeal than Stars which sadly doesn't seem like it'll rise

 

[Nii]

The TOC looks fine to me, happy to see Medaka and Mago out of the bottom. Both definitely deserve a good ranking, the last few chapters were quite entertaining.
Happy about Sket Dance as well, I started the series recently and I'm enjoying it a lot!

Sad to see ST&RS and Enigma so low, both are pretty much goners now. Enigma's latest chapters already pointed towards the end and I have very little hope for ST&RS to revocer.

I don't read Harisugawa and Kurogane but if they should be able to have a consistent good ranking I might try them.

And I want to read Hungry Joker now

 

[Negative Syndicate]

It looks like Magico slowly recovers to his old ranking from struggle in bottom 5.

It looks like both Enigma and St&rs in danger, but in story-wise, I don't see St&rs is heading toward the ending. Enigma is heading toward the end of its story, but I don't see the St&rs author trying to wrap up the story. Maybe the fate of St&rs will be determined on number of new series; if there going to be three new series, then St&rs going to axed for sure.
