^Is this because of the Tsunami??

^Is this because of the Tsunami??

Nah, 21st March (Mo.) is just a Japanese National Holiday, so called shunbun no hi.

 

[Newkerzy]

Oh, ok. Too bad we still don't have clear info about the impact of the Tsunami on the publishing issues.

 

[BianchiChrome]

Helllo!

I have heard that all the SWJ mangaka are alright. Is this the case? I am glad that they are going to try to get out an issue but it would be alright by me if they waited too.

 

[StrangerAtaru]

I sort of hope they keep to their schedules, but the earthquake/tsunami/partial nuclear meltdown is of higher concern so we sort of need to be mindful of that the next few weeks.

This was posted on the Jump website:

"本日（3/14）以降に刊行予定でした週刊少年ジャンプおよび集英社の全雑誌は、全国的に発売が不確定の地区が多くございます。大変ご迷惑をおかけしますが、ご了承下さい。"

Google Translate isn't helping much, but I think it says publication of any Shueisha magazine (including Jump) is uncertain right now.

 

[BianchiChrome]

Hello!

I thank you for this new information. If SWJ does come out this weekend it will be amazing to me. I think for all concerned they should take their time and put it out when they can. I think that with everything going on the fans can wait a little while for all of them to get somewhat back on their feet.

 

[come come paradise]

This doesn't mean that all the mangakas are necessarily all right, does it? Since they probably had this issue's chapters ready since before the earthquake. I kind of wish Shueisha would make some kind of announcement to confirm the safety of their staff so we can stop worrying, I'm not really concerned with getting Jump next week (or the weeks after, for that matter) by this point...

I think translation is slightly different. It said that the Shueisha's magazines will be diffitult to distributed to every regions in Japan. So, I think the regions with major damages, like Sendai and Miyagi, will not be getting the magazines for awhile.

 

[Divinenega]

Guess JUMP is making their authors work, huh? I'm pretty sure it means that their authors are alive and more or less okay though.

 

[Newkerzy]

^I hope not. If they have relatives living in the affected areas, they should be given some time off to check up on their families.

 

[Nayrael]

JUMP should have enough chapters to continue publishing in case something suddenly comes up.

 

[R4n]

I don't mind WSJ go on hiatus if necessary.
and i am totally going to slap all immature people who throw a hissy fit about it...

I heard people usually write 2-3 chapters ahead of the week's publication.

 

[Teeba]

Well, considering that chapter rankings are 8 chapters back, I 'd say they definitely have at least enough to release regularly for the next two weeks, maybe.

But, I'd be really surprised if they just resumed business as usual. o_O Even though Jump is a business, and business will contribute to the relief effort, its kind of a stretch when it concerns manga. (Maybe I'm being too soft?)

 

[Savi]

I pretty sure they not doing 2-3 chapter ahead since they get the ranking a week later (the same raking we get to see only 8 weeks later). If you following Toriko and Naruto, lately the releasing sketches since they are not able to finish the chapter.

 

[Asarii]

Let's direct all conversation about when/how WSJ will be distributed here please! Thanks a bunch.

 

[R4n]

They are writing 2-3 chapters ahead. Oda-sensei mentioned it numerous times. So is Takahashi Rumiko.

This week the rankings are also kinda skewed cuz of the new series and CPs... But nevertheless, it's obvious Mago is still in a spot, but Hokenshitsu takes the fall for Oumaga this week.
