Mag Talk Weekly Shonen Jump [2014] - Discussion and TOC Talk

[Senkai]

I get that. Gintama is a whale to swallow even if you're caught up. Though it does several different genres so very well that at some point you're bound to find something you enjoy. Something about the loose narrative is endearing and a little bit refreshing. More than being a series that just doesn't take itself seriously, it's a series that bends and curves without compromising it's internal integrity, which I find comedies of other types tend to do a lot. That and when it DOES do serious shounen stuff it's still quite good.

But I've done my duty for today. Translating a Jump oneshot and the wordiest manga in the anthology. Can I have another award now?

You should take on the project of translating Bleach.

I am pretty sure it can give Gintama a run for the money on the manga with the most word count in the anthology.

You will win many awards if you are able to accomplish that feat.

Lol though it's wordier than it was before back in the Arrancar / Aizen arc.

These 4 series are really great!I wonder if we'll have 4 new big hits in Jump this year.
In my opinion are these in order of quality:
Stealth symphony
Tokyo wonder boys
Illegal rare
Ishojo
So,I hope every 4 one will be succesful,but especially Stealth symphony and Tokyo wonder boys I hope,and maybe Illegal rare,Ishojo is a good manga,but it doesn't attract me so much in spite of the others

Lol I wonder how you can rank Ishojo last without reading it? (Understanding the Japanese I mean...)

The Amano oneshot and Sket Dance mangaka oneshot are really exciting. Does anyone know when we will get more elDLIVE?

 

[BianchiChrome]

Hello!

I wanted to know if anyone knew what kind of one shot Akira Amano was writing. I am not completely up to date on the issues that have come out. Has issue 19 come out yet? Is anyone going to translate the one shot into English? Does anyone know if there is an English version of eLDLIVE?

 

[Kaizou 10]

Has issue 19 come out yet?

No

You'll have to wait next week for the oneshot to see if anyone picks it up since ut goes out next week. As for eLDLIVE, yes there is. You can read it in full quality on the "patoto" site with the name that starts with 'b' (I don't think giving Edited Mangas links here is that wise)^^

These last chapters of iShoujo seems really interesting, and is funny (or sad) how with 6 chapters iShoujo shows more romance than Nisekoi with 100+ (my opinion)

Also, the ecchi in the last chapters has improved

How does ecchi improve?

 

[Shinuki no Reborn]

How does ecchi improve?

Less generic, not "meh, just a pantie" and more interesting and creative, the cover of this week is a example (iShoujo).

The new trailer for Jojo's Bizarre Adventure Stardust Crusaders:

 

[Pietro]

I cannot understand why you overstimate so much Ishojo,is only a romance,and it's so boring

 

[Kaizou 10]

I cannot understand why you overstimate so much Ishojo,is only a romance,and it's so boring

Is that means we shouldn't overestimate Nisekoi as well?

 

[Pietro]

I neither like Nisekoi nor Ishojo,they can even be good,but I don't see nothing that can attract me with these mangas

 

[Kaizou 10]

Yeah, but I don't think you should really underestimate a romcom series, especially Nisekoi. There are many people who loves romcom in here, especially Nisekoi.

We already understood that you don't like romcom, but it doesn't mean that the manga is bad and deserves cancellation at all. You shouldn't underestimate something just because you don't like it.

Well, people have different tastes. And if Nisekoi's sales are anything to go by, its pretty popular.
I, personally, don't like Assassination Classroom and dropped it after about 20 chapters but it is a massive success.

I had initially told that iShoujo won't succeed if it uses ecchi as it's main attraction but going by the comments of the chapters from various people, it seems there is a lot in it that people love than just ecchi.
