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

[Koshi_Inaba]

That's how it always sell, nothing much to write of, really. It's the number of sales that's important, not it's rank in the chart

 

[Tulkas]

Worst Case would be Mago moving to Jump SQ.
Sry, did i say worst??
Shiibashi in a monthly Magazine would be awesome, just my 2 cent.

TOC is still boring without new series, nothing to talk about, even Light Wing is safe at the moment.

 

[Divinenega]

Solid rankings this week, other than Reborn floating just above the bottom 5, and Nura being at the top of the bottom 5...

It also looks as though Enigma is settling into the middle rankings. I suppose that's solid enough for a new non-mainstream series.

Cover WSJ #09:

So, is news about One Piece taking over Jump's cover/color page during February a false?

Not really, One Piece during February will be all Jump's cover, but these cover won't be realized by Oda.. For example next week OP will the cover, but it will be to achieve Hideaki Sorachi.

Who will have the lead color, in number #10 Gintama have it, will also draw the cover for OP

Ohana didn't say that Medaka had a CP this week, but unless the editors made another boo-boo, it should be a mistake on Ohana's part...

Other than that, a nice top 5. It's great to see Toriko doing so well. Mago is fifth from the bottom, still...

Sweet, Gintama's first color page of 2011. So wait, what? Sorachi will be drawing an OP cover AND the Gintama color page? Considering how much he complains, I wonder if he'll be able to pull it off? Well...I'm sure he will, seeing that he usually does. I hope that eventually he gets a bit more self confidence, especially since Shuiesha seems to like him enough. (I think.)

I am... very amused to see KHR yoyo-ing around the ToC like that. xD
It is as if the fanbase can't decide whether it is awesome or crap. Personally i think it is both.
I still think the upcoming chapters will be awesome.

 

[Rejuvenation]

Great week is great. I've got Medaka, One Piece, and Sket Dance colors to look forward to. Plus Toriko is #2 and Bakuman is #4. I am very pleased.

Mago is still in a lull it seems and Kuroko has been dipping again lately as well. OD appears to have fallen back into the bottom as well. Reborn is low again as well. I'm sure some of these will get a boost when Jump brings in more cannon fodder in the coming months.

 

[Jaiden82]

Don't like where Reborn is at the moment, hope it improves.

 

[Savi]

Better quality cover, and it seems that Luffy is the new JUMP symbol

 

[Josef]

Hm this ToC is similar to ones that went through in 2010 the rankings I mean are similar, Toriko being really high, new series and such being low, and one thing did surprise me here though Reborn! being low, I don't know why though since I dropped it after the future arc but oh well.

Also the OP cover is great I love how realistic the sunny looks thanks for the better quality of it.

The Luffy pirate logo is the best thing Jump has done in years. I love it. TOC itself isn't all that interesting. Nothing is in danger of cancellation, I don't think they've replaced the series canceled in November. The one shots are filling one space, unless I'm forgetting something the other hasn't been. But hey, I don't even remember what was canceled

Light Wing has been rock bottom for quite some time I believe, or if not in the low 5 for sure, also the WSJ logo weren't they going to pick a Naruto one? Or do they go by the most popular series?

 

[Kaiten]

I'm assuming the new logo is part of the OP celebration. No idea of they are going to have a new one after that.

It's usually a series canceled for every new series. If two were canceled in November but nothing new added than everything at the bottom would survive. At least until the next round of cuts. If they plan on adding more than two series Light Wing would be dead.

The previous one was a OP logo as well, it had the face of some pirate now it is just Luffy looking similar to the pirate, lol, you have it as an avatar now.

Ah so it depends on how much they add, no wonder there were a lot of cuts in 2010 they were adding new series and a lot of One-shots were tried out, thanks for the info.

I think the pirate logo before had nothing to do with OP.That was the WSJ logo from the beginning.

Beginning? Since the magazine was established? I don't know it looked like a OP logo of some kind, oh well I guess it is no big deal it is similar and it is Luffy, so it is cool.

 

[Kubukurin]

What series have the color page next week, apart from Gintama?
Will Soreachi draw the One Piece cover?

 

[mngapro]

Have any of the one shots from jump next winter 2011 been translated yet? I can only read like bits and pieces of the stories and it's killing me!! Lol
