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

[SharkBait]

Not hyped for a single one of these.
Poodle won't get scanlated and doesn't seem like something I'd enjoy in the first place.
Can't believe Hinata with red hair actually got a serialization. Real artistic bankruptcy right here.
Golem Hearts could be okay but the MC design just looks like Meliodas with a paint brush.

Honestly kind of doubt any of these will survive. Which is fine by me, for cushions for Shuudan.

Why so negative?

 

[WyldViolet]

Why so negative?

Because those are my opinions and I'm a rather critical person?

 

[Aipom626]

After all of the discussion, I'm looking forward to reading the first chapter of Lycopene when it finally goes up on Viz's Jump Start free section

well, Hinata is just a ginger Ren and Meliodas looks like Oz

however Ookiku Furikabutte and Pandora Hearts are very different from Haikyuu and NnT

so let's hope that's the same case here

but if I'm real honest, I want Ono to flop so he can do the battle manga he was meant to write

I wonder if there's even room for another success right now, the only successful series we know is due to end soon is Gintama. The only other big series that could end is Soma but there's been no news on it being in a final arc and while the current stuff does feel like a big climax, I get the impression it's a part 1 type thing and it'll continue to follow the gang into second year. Unlike standard sports series where the big end goal is winning a tournament and can be done in their first year, Soma to me feels like a series where the final goal is graduation. I guess we'll just have to wait and see.

Gag series can end at any time I suppose but Saiki ending is pretty unlikely with a s2 coming soon and Isobe's rankings probably don't really matter much.

Got this weird feelings Tomato Poodle will be the only one to survive but it'll sit at the bottom with barely any sales

 

[Ecchi Boy]

I hope tomato poodle survives looks very interesting I like the aesthetic of it.

I still believe Hinomaru will end

I mean why keep a school club manga around after the students graduated? what's the point? to see the mc reach his goal of course right?

so I believe that's what's going to happen now, the author will give us Ushio defeating yokozuna and then that will be the end

What do you mean by "room for another success"? The more series that succeed in the magazine, the better for Jump. There's no such thing as "we need this many successes in the magazine and no more". Its entirely possible that all three of these new series succeed. Tomatoy might attract a niche audience. We don't know too much about the other two as Golem Hearts could be entirely different from the oneshot. However, they might also succeed. It of course depends on what we consider to be a success. Gag series have different milestones compared to regular Battle series and sports series. We cannot make any judgement unless 2 volumes have also been released. Shudan has been in the bottom along with Cross Account however, there have been some reports that Cross Account has been selling out in some stores. Ideally, every series in Jump is/becomes a success.

You guys think MHA Vigilante will receive an anime eventually?

Probably only when HeroAca ends, I can only think of Naruto SD and Soul Eater Not oh and Assassination Classroom as the only mainstream manga that got spinoff series animated.

 

[tirakai]

Magi's spin-off about Sinbad got a proper anime. There's also technically the Nisekoi magical girl thing but that was only half an episode from what I remember so it doesn't really count.

It would be pretty nice to see a Vigilante adaptation though it'll be a while until there's enough content for it. Perhaps if the MHA anime stays frequent and they start catching up we can see a Vigilante series.

Crunchyroll giving Black Clover a 3.1 after its debut episode. Next lowest among popular shows was Boruto at 3.8. In a way it's surprising cause this genre attracts the most viewers but it seems it'll take time before the west fanbase catches on to the series.

Main complaints have been dead on to what the main complaints have been on this thread and around: Asta's voice, voice acting, and/or voice actor is dragging down the anime for people. Ancient Magus' Bride, its biggest competition, debut episode has been nothing but praise from what I've seen. Deff an interesting anime season to follow.

"MY EARS HURT AND I HAVE A HEADACHE" comment was the best. When the fact that manga doesn't have sound becomes a plus. XD
Comparing to The Ancient Magus Bride, which is a awarded series and praised wherever you go, is not really fair.

It's growing as a meme

 

[SharkBait]

Odd people praise an anime in which the femchar is in shackles and chained and sold at an auction and becomes a servant to a pervy wizard. Im shocked such an anime is being praised. Speaks volumes of the state of gender relations in the english speaking world.

So you'd be okay with it if she were a guy?

Also on the subject of spinoffs, there's a difference between gag stuff and actual canon stories, a lot of those do get animated. Boruto might even count.

Yes, we need more Males in distress type stories, which seem to be rare.

Though I was actually bored out of my mind with Magus Bride. I found BLack Clover to be far more magical.

I will report this video an offense to Bugatti Veyron. It deserves more respect. XD
Good luck to you guys resisting 12 episodes of this.

Yes, there has to be some black magic involved to create what Asta's VA did.

Well the dub is an option.

I dropped it though.
