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

[shoyoboyo]

Nope, and looking at the MyAnimeList page tells me that I most likely won't like it. Why do you bring it up?

 

[Mammo]

^there are a lot of scenes in it where the mc have his dick hanging out

Beelzebub, Midori no Makibao and early Dragon Ball in WSJ did that too

 

[Scruffy8642]

Those nostrils!! Takeshi vibe already. This is going to be hilarious.

Off topic discussion but beside manga tanko, do you guys purchase/import merchandise good?

I personally don't (that will change in a couple weeks) since usually merchandise good aren't make by the author (with the exception of artbooks), and that kinda put me off of buying them.

and figures are expensive.

I buy a lot of figures. Hoping for some Boruto ones soon.

I have one Gintama figure, and that's about it. I have a Jump Ryu volume if that counts, and some data books. Art books too. I also have that Dragon Ball 30th anniversary book, which is badass.

We can't learn was nice this week. It's good atm. For me is one of the safest in this new mangas and I can see this running with 100 chapters or more with a medium sucess

Horikoshi's Jump Ryu ?

I have my eyes on that DBZ history book. I'll wait another 6 months to see if Viz will bring it over, if not then I'll import it.

 

[Kadir0]

Hungry Marie chapter was good, the plot is finally starting to move, can't wait for the new enemy to arrive. Liked that pizza analogy xD.

 

[Nakura]

Horikoshi's Jump Ryu ?

Naturally! I also have the limited edition of volume 7 that contains the drama cd, so I guess that counts too,

I have my eyes on that DBZ history book. I'll wait another 6 months to see if Viz will bring it over, if not then I'll import it.

Ever since it came out, every couple of months I'd be tempted to buy it... so one day I just did to get it over with. The quality is superb!

I was fine with it in Beelzebub because he was a baby and Beel was cute. This character is just plain ugly. I know early DB had goku's dick out quite often but I haven't read it yet, so I can't really judge it.

Also, on the topic of merch, I do have some anime figures. 4 Haikyuu (Oikawa, Kageyama, 2x Hinata), and 6 One Piece (the 15th anniversary ones, all the male crew members). Right now, I regret getting those One Piece ones because I don't really like the designs that much, and I only got them because my friend got me the Luffy one initially and I wanted to complete the collection sorta. Really wish I used the money to buy different ones that I would like more. The Haikyuu ones I still really love though, especially the Oikawa figure because I love the pose.

"I just wanted to cause trouple for your grandmother"
And then 200 chapters later she says it was just a prank and he chose him because of important reasons to the story.

 

[G_I_A]

I'm not into merch that much but... I import all my manga from cd japan.

 

[Leoat12]

It is impossible to buy anything besides books in Brazil without having to pay the double in taxes, so I'm not into merchandise that much, all figures and DVD's I have I bought in the US while I was there. I bought Kono Oto Tomare CD recently and I had to deal with the heavy taxes, I will not do this again in a while.

 

[Scruffy8642]

Don't really get merch. I buy a ton of manga when I go to Japan though (not like that happens often though). It's hard to justify importing it. Importing 10 books costs the same as buying 50-100 there and bringing them back in luggage...

 

[Koi Kage]

We'll it appears that Ryuuhei is moving away from the romance genre and going towards an all action genre if this chapter of Hungry Marie is any indication. Also and I'm not sure if anyone else thought this, but with the current chapter why does it look like this is series is falling apart at the seams as far as story goes?

 

[tirakai]

Has it even established enough of a story for things to fall apart though? Most of the first chapter was spent on beel references and the next two just explained the gimmick.

 

[G_I_A]

In Brazil they don't tax books/magazines and mangas fall into that category here but... The shipping costs is BEYOND expensive...

We'll it attempted to establish story on the latest chapter (it's fourth chapter) but it failed to do what I assume it was trying to do.

Stop.
Clearly you've never read Beelzebub.
Tamura loves switching around genres by arc or chapter.

So We Can't Study will be ranked this week right? What part of bottom you guys think it will be?

Tamura is doing pretty much what he did with Beelzebub... Making no sense at all
