Mag Talk Weekly Shonen Jump [2012] - Discussion and TOC Talk

[gananime]

I'm really surprised to see Kuroko no Basket selling so really well and above many popular long running series like Gintama and Bleach. Considering how poorly it polls every week in the Jump questionnaires, it really is a surprise.
As far as I recollect, in comic rankings,Kuroko used to be always lower than Gintama or Bleach or even Toriko. That's why it feels strange seeing it so high.

Seeing the top selling manga by volumes

http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2012-06-01/top-selling-manga-in-japan-by-volume/2012-first-half

There's not a single volume of Kuroko...does anyone else find it strange?

 

[vampire killer]

I don`t think it`s stgange. Evryone are baying the older volumes. The same thing happend to Toriko and Nurarihyon.

Kurogane Vomic Chapter 1
http://vomic.shueisha.co.jp/kurogane/

The Kurogane vomic was broadcasted about a month ago but nobody has bothered uploading it online.

The Nisekoi vomic broadcasted about 5 minutes ago. Nisekoi has alot more hardcore fans than Kurogane so we might see it uploaded sometime tonight.

Ohana anounced 2 weeks ago that she cannot get the new issues of Jump on Wednesday anymore. She was flamed hard and hasn't came back on since.

seriously? someone who does something good gets harassed because of circumstances he can't change? just sick...

Because Japan.

Not going to check out the VOMIC, have no interest unless its animated.

Like vampire killer has said, they are buying older volume probably because of the anime.
Same goes for toriko when it started airing and nura when it started s2.

Nisekoi Vomic Part 1

I wonder who would have bet that HQ! would do so well when it started. It's rank so far are impressive for a new serie. I almost wish it hadn't these color pages to see if its real ranks continue to stay at 1 digit.

I sure didn't. Now I'll really have to read it! It may be the first sports series I don't mildly dislike!

After reading raw of Issue 27, I think Magico is beginning to heading toward its ending.

 

[wintercry]

You mean the introduction of the cats?

In the end what happened with this serie of Yokoda Takuma since, in the end, he continues to work for jump.

btw, how did you and the japanese readers find the first chapter of this mini-serie ? No disappointment wrt his previous works which were well received.

The issue of Jump containing Koganeiro doesn't go on sale for another 2 days so most Japanese people have not even read it yet.

I personally thought it was pretty good, liked it more than every other oneshot that has been published this year except for Cross Manage (loved Cross Manage)

Well I'm pretty sure a lot of those who post in 2ch and comment spoilers have read the scan too :-)

Nobody on 2ch has given their opinion on Koganeiro yet. Most people on 2ch actually buy Jump in real life and wait until Monday to read and give their opinions on series.

The Koganeiro thread only has like 17 comments and they are talking about the author rather than what they thought of the series.

The author of Pajama na Kanojo started a twitter account yesterday. He has already made friends with the author of Bleach, Saiki, and the guy that did the Hiyokoppu oneshot last issue.

I hope not, Magico is the only manga I read the WSJ, with desire.
then there's still a popularity contest, I hope give the results.

Well, based on the last development, I'm not sure how the author going to do further story on Magico if it revocers the ranking.
