But you buy everything though.
I didn't buy Lady Justice, Devilyman or anything like that. Though outside of Yusaku Shibata's family, I'm the only person that owns two copies of Yoakemono.

Kazue Kato owns both copies of Yoakemono as well. I think he might have been an assistant of hers at one point, or maybe a close friend because she bought and showed Yoakemono off on her twitter when it was still running.

I didn't like UBS due to it's lack of story. The art could've used some improvement as well.

Yoakemono had excellent art, but lacked in pacing. I can't really comment on it's story due to lack of knowledge since I didn't follow it past chapter 3. Chapter 3 killed the series for me. It was such a waste of a chapter. First chapter, battle to the death. Second chapter, if memory serves correct, another fight takes place. Third chapter, the main character is cutting down trees. Ok. That chapter was very ill placed. Events are supposed to build up. Each event getting more exciting. Events aren't supposed to regress in excitement. I wish him luck on Zippo though. If the serials good, I'll definitely pick up the volumes. Jump needs some more "quality" series.

Yeah, I think Zippo will be big when it comes. I worded it poorly but I have two copies of each Yoakemono volume. Probably do Mitsukubi Condor as well.

Speaking of Mitsukubi Condor, does anyone have the link to the authors recent one-shot? It looked interesting.

No, but I own the Next Volume. It was pretty good Red Sprite was pretty decent.

But I guess you can say I do buy a lot and supper the mangaka. I purchased The Day of Switching-On, a ping pong manga from Shonen Champion last week.

Red Sprite looked interesting. Is it more sci-fi or more supernatural? Iron Knight was good, even if the protagonist was way to young for that type of story. I got to look at some of Red Sprite, and I hate to say that I don't think it will succeed in Jump. Maybe SQ, but it just doesn't feel like a "Jump" series.

Red Sprite is sci-fi, pretty much nothing supernatural about it. I honestly didn't like it at all, even though I really liked Iron Knight.
I actually do have that full issue with the Condor author's oneshot downloaded somewhere, I just have no idea where I put it.

Yoakemono had very neat art and character designs but the writing was pretty awful.
It was also Black Clover levels of derivative.

Black Clover is slowly recovering from it's, in my opinion, terrible start. This weeks chapter was pretty exciting and is a good set up for next week. Hopefully it gets better from here. Still not liking enough to buy the volumes though.

Golden Futur Cup 2015 Winner : Genjûi Toteku / Hitsuji Gondaira.
Well deserved, can't wait for the serialization. I hope Galaxy Gangs gets the chance as well.

Genjui Toteku won the gfc, so that's a guarantee that 2 two things will happen:

1- it will get serialized in wsj next year
2- it will flop & get cancelled next year


also, bleach is back to its normal position

Im just glad Kaminari made 10th and Todoroki placed in the top 3, all my otp considered popular.

Also BLack Clover maintaining rank even in its off week. Im so glad original manga are finally being embraced by jump readers.

When are the last three new series getting the ranked chance?

Very few people voted considering its popularity.
