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

[Tamil]

How was this week BHA rating? It should be 4-4.5%

Much lower than that.

 

[Mammo]

Man, this issue of Giga had so many amateur and unrefined work, I don't think jump will give some of these volumes releases

I think it will be more like how RINGO never got released on volume last year

I only skimmed through the magazine, among the new mini series only Exo Arts stood out
among the oneshots only Ken Tauros left an impression on me

among the omakes. Vigilantes omake was 18 pages long, that's like an average weekly chapter

Poro's omake was pretty lewd, it's almost if it was parodying Yuuna or TLR

 

[RafaFedKilla]

Someone did, Giga is available on every raw site now


I think it's true

I don't think it's "we won't publish you anymore" situation and more like "we will publish you, just not in the main magazine"

May releases: http://www.shonenjump.com/j/comics/

Thanks. Now I just have to find a way to overcome the university's slow dl speed, so I can view it from the comfort of my apartment.

Series that got an anime after they had already ended:
Busou Renkin, Hatsukoi Limited, Black Cat, Level E, Jojo

Hoping for some anime announcements this year

 

[Nakura]

I'm confident there will be a Yuragi anime announcement by the end of the year.

 

[Tamil]

I want an anime announcement for KnY next year, preferably fall 2018. Wow, HxH got it's anime a lot sooner than One Piece.

 

[tirakai]

Most likely Kimetsu too with how it's grown. Kimetsu's current arc once it's done will probably be a good end point for a 2 cour s1.

 

[Tamil]

Never seen Bobobobo Bobobo, how is it as a gag series? Anime or manga?

It's... really weird. I'm not sure what the general consensus is, but I really liked it. I've watched the anime more than I read the manga though, so I can't really say which is better.

 

[Mammo]

Both are great

it's be random for sake of being random type of comedy series, but it's very funny imo

 

[savethecat]

I enjoyed the Bobobo anime as a kid. Would like to own the manga but Viz only released one volume. I do own that though

 

[ChocoBar9]

Never seen Bobobobo Bobobo, how is it as a gag series? Anime or manga?

I liked it. There's a momentum to it that makes it work compares to other gag series where its just a series of rapid fire gags every minute with no sense of structure so even if a gag does fail its not lingered on. The anime also has a very good dub which takes out the Japanese centric weird humor and adds its own crazy weird humor that makes it flow just as well. The anime got canned at 75 episodes but the manga continued on and even got a sequel True Theory....its not as good and by the time it came out the formula had gotten stale and was canned after 9 volumes. Since then the mangaka hasnt struck another hit since with his only claim to fame being that he's the only mangaka to have a seried cancelled in the shortest amount of time and has resorted to doing moe spinoffs of Bobobo in Saikyou Jump.

 

[RafaFedKilla]

I'm going to go through Giga tomorrow and post my impressions. First time entering the raw community, these brahs don't mess around.

How many chapters does Viz need of the each three series to be caught up?

 

[Scruffy8642]

Interesting to note anime announcements seem to be coming earlier. It shows how much of an exception HxH was to get one so damn early back then.

Anime announcements im hoping for this year: HQ S4, Jojo Part 5, Yuuna, Yaiba, Hinomaru Zu- goes and cries in a corner .

In all seriousness though, if Samon doesnt end soon im suspicious it may have an anime in the making. There was that Osomatsu director saying he was interested in it, plus the series has been on a low for quite a while. Save for the new series, its been first on the chopping block for like 6 months now yet still surviving. Its probably just a coincedence because they were all trash, but I cant shake the feeling.

 

[tirakai]

How many chapters does Viz need of the each three series to be caught up?

I think they need 1 each for Stone and RxL, and 6 for We Never Learn.

Not so much time ago people here had the opinion that Jump should hold anime announcement as long as possible to make room for material. Now series with less than a year has anime talkings. We are not the best public to theorize over, but maybe there is a trend in Japan going to the same direction?

But no one even mentioned series with less than 1 year

I don't think anyone expects a Neverland announcement

I could see one being announced by this time next year but probably not any earlier

A good question I make about this is... Why is important to make room for the material? "Because it will be a good adaptation" And it will be a bad one if they work with not so much chapters? "Yes it will be bad" Will that save an awful manga? Will this transform an awful manga into a good series? If not, then stop caring about faithful adaptations, for God's sake. The fidelity is not important for everyone. It's just wish-fullfillment for the fans. And no, the main audience is not the established fans. nor it has to be. I'd rather have a good anime loose adaptation for new fans than a faithful adaptation but sucky anime for everyone.
