Didn't he have to draw up a chapter of MHA or something? That probably messed up his regular schedule.

Where did you hear that?

 

[Halloween]

Where did you hear that?

It was stated in here and corroborated in the author comments. Apparently Tabata is doing a MHA chapter, and MHA's author is doing a BC chapter in Jump GIGA, IIRC.

Since most of you seem to love Yuragi so much, i have two questions for you guys. Are there some of you that dislike fanservice/ecchi stuff but still love that series? What part do you like about it? I am someone that doesn't like ecchi genre completely, but if there's something worth reading for it, i'd like to give it a shot.

It's a lot of fanservice but what scruffy said is accurate. The characters' designs and personalities are nice, the plot (when's it's actually plot) isn't too bad either. The girls don't beat the shit out of the mc when "accidents" happen which is the best part. Just don't take it seriously, it's a harem and they never should be

This chapter of Black Clover was an okay chapter it's good that we got a small peek into one of the other Magic knights captains past this time, but it was, in my opinion, half-hearted. Also it appears that Yami has almost identical powers over women as Asta does. This chapter also seems to be the last in between chapter before the tournament starts.

MHA was kind of meh this chapter it wasn't bad but not really good either at least to me. It's good we got what happened between Shigaraki and Overhaul, but that second half left a sour taste. I liked how we actually got a look at Kirishima's intership, but

Spoiler

when Tamaki got shot by what I assume was an anti-quirk bullet

in my opinion didn't really have an impact like it probably should have.

Does anyone else think that reviving Yuzuhira happened way way sooner then it probably should have? The only real big problem I have with this chapter of Dr. Stone is that Tsukasa is supposed to be the main antagonist, at least he's portrayed that way, then how is he create a world free of adults if all he knows is half of the cure. Also and this is a small discrepancy but how would he know that the water in the cave was nitric acid just by tasting it I not saying he's not smart and all but it just seems odd how he'd know what nitric acid taste like.

This is just a side thing but Boichi's art is really starting to irritate me for this series I would prefer him to make it looks similar to the look of a seinen manga the overly shounen style is really not convening me that this world is dangerous.

There is a place on this site dedicated for each Black Clover, My Hero, and Promised Neverland it would be more convenient for everyone if you posted your weekly chapter "reviews" there instead of here.

Wow, BC had so many unfinished panels this week. It was either those Vines being a PITA, the Giga chapter, or the Cover + lead next week. That interview about his art certainly seems to hold true.

I'm guessing it was a combination of the giga chapter and the lead caused the unfinished sections, and at least you can tell who the characters are when MHA did that Icouldn't really make heads or tails of who was who.

It wasn't difficult at all to tell who was what since there were only two characters at a time in those pages.

 

[ElJin]

If next week we don't see a poster, seiyuus and a trailer on Shueisha's YouTube Channel about Black Clover's anime I'll drop the manga.

Jokes aside, I miss work on BC with you and your team, G_I_A.

I didn't know Kaidou was a Jaymes and Foreverafail subscriber

 

[TyVip]

Kogarashi's birthday is . Also

Spoiler

Potential new harem members, not 1 but 2 of them

@Mammo I too want to see a car racing manga in Jump, especially F1 Racing, although I will take Mario Kart type. Future GPX Cyber Formula is my all time favorite childhood anime.

 

[Mammo]

Speed Racer is pretty mainstream anime/manga too

you would think there would be more shonenish manga about car racing with superpowers

but nope

What about that Reborn spinoff in Saikyo?

 

[Mammo]

that's just 1 manga

I want a legit car racing manga with setting and dynamics similar to the Mario Kart games

the dude that did UBS (rest in peace you will live in the hearts of believers forever) did Hoshikusu wanderer oneshot last year

which was so close to what I've imagined so hopefully that will get serialized soon and hopefully it doesn't get axed like UBS

 

[ShenGao]

Isn't WSJ the wrong magazine for a racing manga? I imagine most of the readers aren't old enough for a drivers license.

 

[Mammo]

a friendly reminder Circuit no Ookami is a WSJ manga

anyway, Chousoku Henkei Gyrozetter and Reborn's spinoff were published in Saikyuu Jump and the target demo for that don't even know the multiplication table

also by your logic most WSJ readers aren't old enough to become heroes, mages, pirates, ninjas....etc

So you cant be interested in cars/driving if you dont have a license? Never played Mario Kart or a Need for Speed game as a kid? If anything theyre probably more interested because its something they cant do themselves.

Reading about teenagers fighting monsters with superpowers is something different than teenagers driving cars. One is fantasy that will never happen, the other is something they can experience when they become adults.
The author would have to come up with a reason about how teenagers are allowed to drive and how they can buy cars. Or the MCs are adults, but when was the last time a WSJ manga with a full adult cast became a success? Toriko which started in 2008?
Circuit no Ookami was published more than 40 years ago. The targeted readers from then are different than the ones today.
Chousoku Henkei Gyrozetter sounds and looks more like a shovelware Gundam ripoff than a racing manga. Is that truly what you want to see in WSJ?

Racing with superpowers is fun. Need for Speed, Mario Kart, F-Zero, Midnight Club, WipeOut and the Burnout games prove that, but i don't think it can work as a manga targeted at teenagers. And that's why nobody does one in this time.

Cycling oneshot better not let me down.

Not quite Mario Kart crazy, but did you ever read Capeta?
