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

[Nemesis]

Really nice to see We Never Learn out of the bottom five. I'm happy for Robo X Laserbeam and Saiki in good positions, too.

 

[Nakura]

I'm predicting a Fall 2017 release for the Black Clover anime.

Didn't expect RxL to be so high. Guess I'll catch up to it now that it's relatively safe it seems.

 

[shoyoboyo]

Not too surprising to see WNL getting a color page, volume 1 releases next week.
Looking forward to seeing the Black Clover anime visual.
Great ranking for Yuragi, very happy about that.

I didn't realize WNL is getting its first volume release already. Looking forward to seeing the cover for it. One thing I like about new manga is seeing the different styles of volume covers each mangaka goes with.

I'm predicting a Fall 2017 release for the Black Clover anime.

I'm predicting a winter maybe spring 2018 release.

They were saying the same thing in the thread but WNL does a good job of with how much realism is used. Like nothing much stands out or noticeable even compared to Nisekoi, which had one of the best harem beginnings to me, but the author is finding his nich, last chapter was really good. It's a light read but comfy

I don't really see a reason to hate on it aside from it's genre which I understand some people don't like. It's been doing a pretty good job.

Let's take a moment to appreciate this part of the TOC once again, shall we? XD

Who is above who? Say it out loud so that I can hear.
Glad for We Never Learn, it is starting to grow on me, the last color page was great with Takemoto tanned skin and Takemoto love story... *-*
Thinking about buying the volume. I'm sure gonna buy digital, but I want it physical. It depends on the cover... Cover is very important.

 

[TyVip]

Still waiting on Yuragi's super delayed anniversary cover, there is next year I suppose.

 

[Scruffy8642]

Holy shit, what happened to haikyuu? I don't remember seeing it that low.

Its only 8th? Out of the last 5 issues its been 7th twice, 1st twice and not ranked once. So its not that bad.

Next week, Hungry Marie's 7th chapter will be ranked which was probably the best and when the series started getting better. Although I highly doubt it, I wonder if it will at least rise up out of the bottom 3? Tch, I really should stop having hope over stuff like this.

 

[tirakai]

I figured Marie would stay just above the other flops and potentially get past one round but it's below even Poro now, I wonder which will end first.

It is not how it actually is, but the editors think that a veteran can recover more easily and they can let Hungry Marie aside and cancel Poro at first. Hungry Marie was so bad that I don't think the readers will give it another chance, but the editors has the say... Sooner or later it will be cancelled.

Spoiler: NSFW

the PLOT aside, I really dig Miura's art. So much like Food Wars (I know he was an assistant or something like that) but the color palate and smaller detail stuff like her eyes really bring out the vibrancy of his characters. Can't go wrong with Karura either

 

[Nakura]

Is that a new girl? I don't recognise her. I must catch up soon!

You do brah, this pic basically describes how she's like. Good luck

Saeki Shun, the Food Wars artist, was his assistant actually.

 

[savethecat]

I kind of want to check out that Terra series that just started in Jump Plus

[G_I_A]

Black Clover 150k? Have it already reached this mark before?

About the voice cast... Pierrot has one job... Just need to use Naruto's voice cast. Instasuccess.

 

[Nakura]

If Asta ends up with the same VA as the OVA, then I probably won't watch it. His voice made the OVA really hard to watch for me.

 

[G_I_A]

Indeed, I had a hard time translating that shit hearing that annoying voice all the time.
