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

[SharkBait]

Who is yonkou and why should I be interested?

 

[XtrnlArdent]

Oh, so Ao no Flag is selling well. I don't know the Shonen Jump + standards but besides World's End Harem that sells a lot it's a good number, it isn't?

Jump page announcing the 50th anniversary oneshots

I didn't check manga news for over a week and that's the week Kubo's one shot announcement comes out and the sales figures that shows just how well MHA is doing. *smh*

I'm so excited. I know Kubo is very talented. His portrayal of the fan sending him a fan letter, which he put on twitter, shows how talented he is.
That said, with his health, I honestly doubt this would turn into an actual serialization, as much as I'd love that. He himself stated very recently that he ended Bleach because of his health and just got it to an end which he thought was acceptable to him.

I'm gonna assume WSJ approached him for a one-shot and he obliged.

Also, about MHA sales. I wanna say "I told you so" to some people arguing that the 2nd season won't have an impact but I guess others have already done it for me. So I'm cool with it.
Given how the best fight of the series is still yet to be animated, it can only go further higher from here.

Togashi's recommendation didn't do anything for Shuukyoku Engage's sales
and lol at Giga miniseries, why did they even bother giving them a print release

We Never Learn doing well is lovely to see, same goes for Aharen-san. Aharen seems like it gets special chapters in the various Jump printed magazines fairly often for a Jump+ title.

Cross Account 3 + 4 (cancelled)

Not surprised there. It just couldn't really compete with the other series in Jump. Maybe in would've fared better in a different magazine, but it is what it is. Shudan's chance of survival still looking grim, but I've been surprised before. I looked up the author, and I had no idea he's been around for that long and that he wrote Chikan Otoko (one of the first series I ever read that helped get me into manga). I find his art style really cute, so I hope that if Shudan doesn't work out, he finds another venue for his next series quickly.

Something tells me it will be a Musou game.

Looks like just a quick cashgrab. I bet thats an Omega force game.

I should thank Shueisha for that Black Clover game. Now nobody can say that Toriko is the biggest pushed series of WSJ.
Also poor Asta's VA. Now he will have to scream for the anime and a game.

 

[SharkBait]

But every jump anime gets a game. How is BLack Clover any different.

 

[Nemesis]

But every jump anime gets a game. How is BLack Clover any different.

Yeah. Saiki had a 3DS game, MHA had a 3DS game and now a console game. It's pretty normal, most of WSJ has a game in some moment, either without or with a anime.

 

[Mr.Fujimaster]

Isn't RobotxLaserbeam selling more than Bokuben?
Please, don't be thats the sales are dropping.

Relax, it's just the first day of sales.
Probably in the next few days when RxL appears on the Oricon, it will be selling more than WNL.
I think the only possibility of WNL selling more than RxL, should be because of this:

Have managed to attract many people.
I do not think that's going to happen.

 

[ElJin]

Extremely excited for the game. That's a pretty huge budget game, the graphics are amazing, can't wait to see some teaser showing action.

I'm more than happy seeing BokuBen consolidated with sales. It's the best romcom I ever read so far in Jump, the mangaka's very decent, I never liked so much all the girls the way I like BokuBen girls. Dr. Stone I hated at the start, now it's one of the most exciting series to me in the magazine.

It's good to see the old volumes in Shoseki.
I hope it will increase more in sales.

 

[ShenGao]

But every jump anime gets a game. How is BLack Clover any different.

Most series don't get a PS4/PC game after less than 3 years of serialization. Or where are the Shokugeki, Haikyuu, Toriko, Beelzebub, Psyren, Nurariyhon PS4/PC games?

Could that text really have been so effective? Lol.

Odd, I dont remember PS4 being a thing when Beelzebub, Psyren, or even Nura were running. Quite sure Toriko was already in its sunset days by then so it wouldnt hadve made sense. I certainly cant be the only one. Vita is kind of dead if one wants their aniGame to go outside of JPN, and 3DS is also in its sunsettting days.

Who is yonkou and why should I be interested?

You've been here for four and a half years and you arent aware of Yonkou?
Did I just fall for (shark)bait?

 

[Avok]

Did I just fall for (shark)bait?

Yes.

 

[Drmke]

I've been here since 2009 and I don't really know who that is...a YouTube guy who talks about manga I'd have to assume. Definitely the type of thing I'd avoid, so it's easy to imagine others have as well.
