What exactly was so bad about the second season? I didn't watch it since I was already reading the manga.
Nothing, it was as expected. Believe me, absolutely, undeniably nothing.
It was fast paced because it was the Autumn Election finals with a culinary battle after another, which are fast paced, there are chapters which they just explain a dish, which in the manga is 20 pages full of text, but in the anime is just 5 minutes of conversation, they didn't let anything out.
Counting the number of chapters the episode adapted doesn't mean nothing when you don't consider the content of such chapter.

Man, I wish they would give us a breakdown on the sales rather than just ticking the categories. No surprise in seeing Academia but I'm rooting for it this time. Season 2 has been a lot of fun watching.

Good god how did Yuri on Ice of all things manage to hit number 2? It's literally within spitting distance to surpassing One Piece's numbers.

Flawed to be sure but not a bad show by any means, but to generate these numbers through home video and music alone?

Selling an average of 67,000 BDs and DVDs which just clocked up a month ago. Wouldn't worry about One Piece since this list is missing the main money maker , merchandise.

It is also important to notice that while One Piece success is eternal, these animes successes are ephemeral.
Do you guys remember when people said that Attack on Titan would surpass One Piece? No? Neither do I. XD

this month's Giga was the best of the current 2017 batch, and not just because of all the Kimetu no Yaiba extras

most manga started getting interesting because they have to set up the final chapter

and I liked Craftsman oneshot, you don't see manga with steampunk theme too often

You think this is impressive? Well just wait when BDs of Kimi no na wa release I'm pretty sure its going to the 2nd or even 1st.

Once again, this time around by watching ep. 13, MHA proves me that its concept of 1st year teens doing classroom stuff that 2nd, and 3rd years are supposed to do(internships, hero license, being sidekick to a superhero), is a huge suspension-of-disbilief issue. If the manga ended the 1st year of highschool at chapter 120 at least, it would be good. But it seems that Horikoshi wants to drag out the 1st year for 200 chapters. Then how much will be on the rest of the highschool?

Ironic that the manga runs at a fast pace, yet the highscholl year are a dragout.

Cute that you're making an attack on this when you clearly aren't reading the current arc which explained more what 2nd and 3rd year is like.

Although I do admit the attention to the sports festival being paid to just the first years bugs me though.

A bit offtopic, I've been searching for Tokyo Kigo Tanpou and Tsukumogami: Teito Jouhoubu Tokken Chohouin 007-shiki raws for a while, and since you usually manage raws here, I thought maybe you knew something about.

It is still possible to buy the Kindle version of the JUMP GIGA editions where Tokyo Kigotanpou was published, the first is here. The novel is also available here although there is no digital version for this one.

Of course I read up to the latest chapter, but my fact is the same. They're doing things that are supposed ot be reserved for 3rd year students.

This is not.
The thread.
For MHA.

Please either find a way to tie it into the magazine in general or start the discussion in the appropriate section, I would like to not have to delete entire conversations that at least one side of put some thought into but the constant derailing of the topic is really getting to be too much.

Looking at the volumes released this month I saw that iShoujo+ is already at its 13th volume... That's incredible for a series that was transferred from Jump to Jump+. Does it sell that much? How the story is going? The arts looks nicer than it was at its time in Jump.

It ended, volume 14 is out in a few weeks and that's the last one.

Oh... Never mind then..... XD
I was never really interested and when I ask, it is ending. XD
Well, now the author can focus on coming back to Jump, his artstyle is good.

Is there a site that has an archive of color pages? I want to find past Seikimatsu Leader Den Takeshi! color pages and/or popularity polls (I know someone posted an old pop poll here before).
