I hope Demon's plan will have good ranking, because it's very good.
Spring weapon is getting a color page even before ranking? That's really weird.

 

[Mammo]

Besides Medaka Box... Which other manga was "relevant" with a female MC? I can't remember a single one.

dr slump? jojo part 6? video girl ?orange road? cat's eyes?

spring weapon have been ranking for weeks

 

[Halloween]

Even they (MCs) have great intelligent..... they are still 11 years old kids.....

Which was illustrated recently when Sister Krone knew they were lying by watching their body language.

Well Arale is actually a robot but yeah. Jolyne is the best answer indeed... I don't know video girl, orange roand and cat's eyes.

LoL Demon's plan chapter was SAVAGE . Cliche but enjoyable .

 

[Leoat12]

I'm still hoping that the demons will eat one of the MCs in Neverland... It would be awesome. (I hope it's the annoying girl who want's to save them all.)

It would be interesting indeed, but I don't think it is going to happen with any of the main characters. It is obvious (or at least I hope so) that somebody will die, there is no way to make everybody escape like that, it is delusional. It will be a lesson principally for Emma, that the world is not that easy. If she is able to save everybody with friendship power, I will be just disappointed with the series.

Plus, it's nice to have a female MC nowadays in Jump.

"""female"""" XD

I hear you. Black Clover's chapter this week was BEYOND annoying with all cliche that you can possibly imagine in the history of manga. And obviously, the friendship power was victorious.

 

[Leoat12]

I like The Promised Neverland, I really do, but it feels like a house of cards... So many things can go wrong with minimal mistakes from the author that I'm afraid to read every week. hahaha

 

[Lehran]

If the option is to become an appetizer to demons? F*** my "siblings" dude...

I wonder how you are able to enjoy Shonen Jump manga at all if you have such disdain for the values they convey...

On another topic, I'm really happy for Kimetsu no Yaiba. At first, I thought there was no hope for the series to become a success, as its performance was disappointing in both magazine rankings and volume sales in the first months. But both have been gradually improving, so I hope it is able to do like Sket Dance and evolve from a series that seemed dead on arrival to a successful long-running series. The author's art may be still kinda rough but it has a lot of personality.

I see no disdain... It's called cause and effect. I do appreciate the values of the characters. I just don't see they replicated in real life. I'm a realist, not a dreamer.

 

[savethecat]

I personally thought the last Demon's Plan was plain bad, and while I didn't necesarily love the past chapters, I didn't completely dislike them.
I honestly don't like the Eus kid and feel like him popping up with a backstory this quickly is just strange

 

[Halloween]

The latest Demon's Plan chapter was easily the best so far.

 

[xAsum0x]

I thought 6 was pretty good too, but chapter 7 was good also. Surprised that the chapter was that savage, we'll see whether or not it survives next week, it's seems to be another Black Clover where it's a hit or miss for some folks. At least it's far ahead of Red Sprite during this current time

 

[Kadir0]

This panel though.

Spoiler

 

[tirakai]

Speaking of Sket Dance, viz has ch 23 of Astra Lost in Space up now.

I like how much of a soap opera the series is turning out to be, Shinohara's drama always seems to end up being hilariously overdone.

 

[savethecat]

Eeeeh I honestly preferred Red Sprite over Demon's Plan. Not really caring for it at all

 

[xAsum0x]

That's why I said hit or miss friend

 

[Nakura]

I still think Demon's Plan is very bland. It's not grabbing me at all. I will say one thing, I would prefer Eus as the MC.

 

[xAsum0x]

It is quite bland but the past 2 chapters I felt were pretty nice in building the story and characters. For me personally I'm quite enjoying as its giving me something to read along with MHA, OP, BC, KnY and some other seinen stuff. As far as it surviving I'm not sure but apart from me feels like it will because of who the editor is (MHA editor) and maybe he'll know how the capture a japanese audience some way. I think it definitely is light years ahead of shit like Red Sprite, Amalgam shit even Black Clover when it first started.

 

[Nakura]

I mean, at least with Black Clover there is some sort of charm... plus it's fun to watch a train wreck. It's definitely not the worst thing(such as Red Sprite and Amalgam), but it's not what I'm personally looking for.
