Does Jump usually cancel series that has a twitter page?

Samon was cancelled and it has 12.6K followers on twitter.

...Even now the description says that its still running....

 

[Caiops]

Well, at least RxL sell well, maybe it help.

Hello darkness my old friend.

 

[xAsum0x]

Wasn't this ranked Dr Stone chapter the chapter in which they made cola? Pffft lmao

 

[DyanSon]

Editor's mind game what do you expect? At this point ToC is joke

 

[ShenGao]

They didn't even create Cola. It's just the promise to create Cola in the future which was reason enough for the magician to join Senkuu and betray the other guy.

 

[shoyoboyo]

RIP RxL, the pushing weeks are over, back to the bottom it goes I guess. At least it sells well, so hopefully it'll stick around.

Getting ptsd, comment reminds me of G_I_A

Samon and Shoodan have a Twitter page.

Didn't Mononofu have one too? Twitter pages don't mean much, they're just inexpensive advertisements.

 

[savethecat]

yeah always, since it's the new Next/Akamaru

Full Drive artist released a oneshot there last year
the guy that's doing Grim Reaper next week released 2 oneshots in Giga, one in 2016 and the other earlier this year

I THINK I remember one of the one shots.

Was one a gag series?

Yes, it's a dead Twitter account with 2.7k followers and no tweet since september 2016.

 

[Scruffy8642]

Was just thinking how good Astra is and that Jump + seems to have killed its chances at getting anywhere. Better than Sket Dance imo. At least it won't get cancelled I guess. ThoughYabuki's promotion seems to have improved its rankings, maybe it'll have at least some effect on sales.

 

[OfficialHxH]

Viz Media's shounen jump app has all Astra chapters (up to 44) for free FYI

both are battle manga

one is Called Budda and the other is called Dogs

his artstyle is rough and amateurish and both have more action and fighting scenes than a story

Hate to ask, but any links to some images to them anywhere.
Just curious, since he's a young artist. Can't find any myself

Yuragi and Robot in the bottom is too much for me.
WNL will have cover in the next issue, it looks like my prediction worked.

I'm very interested to see if my Hype for Golem Hearts will disappoint me as soon as Hungry Marie let me down.
I'm also interested in this oneshot called Grim Reaper.

Having a mostly likeable cast who all appeal to everyone is WNL's main fault in my mind. What I love most about Nisekoi or Yuuna as examples, is the variability in cast. So while this means you'll likely hate certain characters at points and love others, those views are also open to, and likely will change throughout the series with character development. I personally feel very satisfied when a character I hate is developed in a way where I grow to like them. Recently it happened with Oboro in Yuuna who I've disliked most of the series run, and Nisekoi somehow managed to make me somewhat like Marika by the end.

Having mostly likeable characters from the start takes away that possibility. I think in Romcom harems where character development is everything, part of the purpose and entire enjoyment of the series is seeing how the characters grow and change in your mind. If they're already good, there's a lot less room for that, and you just get used to the series and characters being at a certain level. Not saying there isn't development, it's just less significant. I shouldn't be thinking the teacher, who's had extremely little focus, is already better than mainstream characters in her first few chapters. What room is there for her growth now? It kinda means all the time spent on the old cast is wasted if I prefer a new character to any of them. Alternatively, it means you get bored of cast members after a certain amount of chapters as their characters change too little to be interesting.

I agree with everything, polarization makes everything more interesting, the discussions about who deserves more go longer and there are more room to develop. I have a hard time thinking in aspects WNL characters can develop and it is bad, blandness comes to mind and blandness means Onodera and this is bad. XD
They will end up like Onodera, without development whatsoever.

 

[Doughboy]

Polarization made things interesting but tbh I like not getting triggered when I see certain characters. My mind and blood sugar are at peace.
