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

[Asarii]

Sengoku Armor's art style is a teensy bit like Shaman King's because of the guy on the left. This is the series I'm most excited about so I can't wait!

I don't know what Tsuna is doing (showing off perhaps?), but I like #33. It's a variation of the colour page a while back. Psyren and Bakuman's volumes are nice too.

EDIT: A break for ONE PIECE... whaa--???

 

[Kaiten]

I'm looking forward to it too. Probably the first time in a long time I cared about a new Jump series

I don't remember thinking this when I read the one-shot, but doesn't the art look a little like Fairy Tail (especially the girl)? ._. The character designs are a little different from the one-shot but I guess the story is still roughly the same since it still says "collecting the strongest weapons". Looking forward to it

The art style has definitely changed. The girl doesn't look as skinny as she did in the one shot. Not sure about Lucy, other than the smirk.

A good cover from both Shiibashi-sensei and Obata-sensei for Mago and Bakuman! Hiramaru is so hilarious and I like that this cover doesn't have him in any stock/cool pose. Not to mention the Otter #11 plushies!

Oh and someone asked about when Dois Sol and Grimm would get posted online on the SJ website? They're up! Dois Sol's been up for a week but Grimm was just added today.

Little Info About Jump #14

Sengoku ARMORS by Shouta Sakaki (Cover, Lead CP)
magico (CP)
BEELZEBUB (CP)
Meruhen (CP)
BLEACH (CP)
No ONE PIECE for this week issue.

 

[Crude]

Wait, Jump has 4 new series!? I thought they either stuck with 2 or 3. Not that I mind though, they all look pretty interesting to be honest, especially Sengoku Armors. It's artwork seems like a cross between early Fairy Tail and early Bleach.

 

[Divinenega]

I like most of the covers. The ones for Reborn, Psyren and Medaka Box stand out to me the most though.

I also noticed that the color for Volume 2 of Enigma is red not purple. It's sort of interesting to think that their may be a change in color for each volume.

Ah sadly it doesn't appear they are in English yet. Guess I'll have to wait a bit longer.

 

[Rejuvenation]

I like what Nishio did for volume 9 of Medaka Box. Shibuki probably could have been on the cover too but oh well its fine.

Hiramaru on the Bakuman cover made me laugh. I do agree that there has been a noticeable increase in his panel-time.

One of the better Beelzebub covers. I like this one.

Psyren's is a feel good cover. I don't remember if this was the last volume or not but it would make for a good send off cover.

As far as Sengoku Armors goes, well I'll wish it the best of luck in trying to succeed where the previous action series have failed recently. I do like the art for it and yeah it does remind me of Shaman King.

 

[R4n]

I do like the art for it and yeah it does remind me of Shaman King.

I agree. It is unnoticeable with the girl, but for the man the art really looks like Hiroyuki Takei's xD

 

[Mr. Prince]

I finally came around reading magico and I thought it was quite cool. Though I have to agree with everybody who said it had a certain One shot feel to it. Chapter 1 really comes off like some self-contained short story... I'm quite curious as to where chapter 2 will start from and how things'll develop.

Also looking forward to Sengoku ARMORS! I agree with the statement about the girl looking somewhat Fairy Tail-ish (i.e. like Lucy) in this version.

 

[BBB Banana]

Hey guys It's been a while since I visited this thread. actually since 2010 second thread.

Seems like a lot happened since then. I guess I'm gonna keep my self up to date from now on.

I came here to see if the was One Piece this week and turns out the info was true

Magooooooo Oumagaaaaaaa

I'm happy to see Bakuman so high for a second week, though~

 

[Oberon]

Uhm strange ToC.. Gintama and Bakuman climb over Naruto. Very well Toriko and Enigma, not good position for Medaka Box, Nurarihyon no Mago and Oumagadoki Doubutsuen.


@Saladesu: You forgot to put One Piece (Absent), and Meruhen has a 23 pages chapter not the color pages.

Naruto (Cover & Lead Color Page)
Sengoku Arms (25 pag. + Color Page)
Sket Dance (Color Page)
Kochi Kame (Color Page)
Magico (23 pag.)

 

[Googlez_kun]

I guess the Naruto color means that we'll get the poll results,or am i wrong?

 

[saladesu]

Has it been 3 months already? If so, I think that's it

@Oberon: Ah, my bad. I didn't see the "center color" on Meruhen in the scan either, but sodeq's old post had it as CP so I just followed suit I've fixed that and noted OP's absence. Thanks for pointing it out~

P.S.: green color is for new series, so Naruto shouldn't be green

 

[Divinenega]

NOOOOO, Medaka Box!!!!! Hopefully the new soccer series will fail in the rankings and act as buffer, though Medaka should likely be safe until it's two year anniversary(with an anime announcement hopefully following it).

At least Enigma's in the top 5 again. Hopefully this time JUMP won't print a limited run for Volume 2, so we can see how well it does on the charts in sales.

 

[StrangerAtaru]

Gintama and Bakuman beating Naruto...though upset with no OP this week, this probably made my day. Also like Sket and Enigma's positions as well.

 

[BBB Banana]

So nice to see Gintama and Bakuman up there. Mago still worrys me
