Mag Talk Weekly Shonen Jump [2017] - Discussion and TOC Talk

[Kave]

You can dream with Pochi Kuro. How much is Ishojo+ selling? I doubt its as good as Shuumatsu no Harem or even eldlive.

Around 10k. Boys Over Flowers sells 100k+, KnB Replace Plus 80k and Karada Sagashi 40-50k

 

[Mammo]

Pochi Kuro, the most popular series on the site. Still going strong with no signs of ending any time soon shut up and let me dream I need this

a long running anime adaptation by madhouse should start airing soon too

seriously, don't close your eyes on Akuma no Memumemu-chan , it's having the reprints after reprints

threads on 2ch are pretty active

it could be Jump Plus new hit

Anyway, what about the dance manga and Zumou? Are they really ending?

 

[Halloween]

Another great KnY chapter.

 

[Kefka Palazzo]

It's a JUMP+ manga... Pretty much everything there is irrelevant. Excent maybe Eldlive (because now it has a anime). Shuumatsu no Harem (because it's the fanservice hardcore ****** perv dreamland) Fire Punch (still don't know why it's a "thing") and... what else? Can't remember right now.

Besides the one you mentioned, there's Ana no Mujina. Not that it's a good manga. And that's it, I guess.

 

[Mammo]

beside everything everyone already mentioned
there are Kanata no Astra and Kiss x Death, both sell ok
KxD even appeared on oricon a couple of times

Dance-bu : From the translated chapter (73) and the newest chapter image (83). It's heading in that direction. Unless the author is planning to do one more arc.

 

[G_I_A]

Thank you. It's a shame, with the Ballroom e youkoso anime, it could give him some ideas to improve.

Don't get me wrong, I don't want this series to "fail". I want all to be as better as possible, but if they are middle toc series and failling in sales, it's better to open spots to brand new ones.

Actually,

Spoiler: Some Dance-bu spoiler

The author only has 2 tournament, and 1 training camp in between. The first one is the debut tournament in many sports manga. The training camp, and the next one is the NATIONAL tournament. So, the author doesn't have plan to drag it out.

It's probably just a coincidence that Dance-bu and HZ are close to ending, and both are 30k-40k seller. Just like last year.

 

[HIGAN0]

I refuse to believe that HZ is ending soon...........I don't read the raws but I think series still has lot more to go........and there no reason for series to end this early....

You mean, aside from the sales being low?

I don't think it has that much to tell, but I also don't want it to end. It's such a great series, and I'm just happy it's been allowed to go on for this long at least.

In all seriousness, iShojo+ is doing pretty well, and Karada Sagashi is based off a popular novel series and sells decently on its own but I think it's ending soon.

Pochi Kuro was nice, I read a couple of chapters, but I didn't continue reading. I focused my attention on Osengai no Medusa, which also continues pretty strong in the site. XD
Have to read Wadachi Taira new series by the way, it is cute...

 

[HIGAN0]

You mean, aside from the sales being low?

yeah.but still popular in the magazine......

 

[RafaFedKilla]

HZ will take place in an alternate universe where Sumo is globally popular, so it will enter a world arc. Just you watch.

 

[Swavey]

yeah.but still popular in the magazine......

5th most popular in 2016 based on rankings HZ's future is unclear

 

[savethecat]

If HZ is reaching its end I would imagine it was according to plan, and not because of cancellation

 

[Scruffy8642]

I just think given its sales, Kawada didn't want to drag it out because it would just end up cancelled. But yeh, it will definitely end naturally, can't imagine a cancel ending now.

 

[tirakai]

Zumou ending naturally feels like a given at this point, it's so close to a great end point that even if it suddenly dropped in the ranks it would be pretty much done before it started getting really risky.

Sure the story could go further and start focusing on the pro circuit but that doesn't fit what kind of series it's been up to now. That's more like something I'd expect to see as a sequel in some other magazine a few years down the line if the creator's other ideas for series don't work out.

 

[Mammo]

a couple of hours until the toc, the last new year oneshot will be in it, which means next week issue will be 50+ pages shorter than usual

unless they start something new or wt return from hiatus

Spoiler: pics

here's something fun, kny fandom have been editing sister Krone into the manga and it works better than expected
