Noah's Notes is the true MHA killer.

 

[TyVip]

GOOD, Success, Jump’s Pillar and Ikezawa in the same sentence.

 

[Chuck_Atlas]

Hey in a different universe, Kurogane would of had a decent run of about 5-6 years, and some fine anime, getting Kuroko and Haikyuu level of success

Being real, Noah’s Notes seemingly has a better chance of survival than say Bozebeats

 

[Nemesis]

I mean, I'm hyped for the series for the designs and artstyle alone. Still need to see if I will like the story, characters and plot of it but otherwise it's just from the information that we have.

 

[Doughboy]

Probably cause the heroine is best girl

More like the only thing people cared about in the preview. I understand now more than ever of what age we’re in now and it’s kinda amusing. Our own iceemperor brought it up before. Having a heroine who “looks good” seems like an actual trait to have as much as their character development and plot significance. I’m the last person to complain about this, it’s just notable cause it’s what we want...

Neverland will have an exclusive cover for the French Market

 

[ShenGao]

Looks fucking ugly. If they don't want people to read this then they are doing a great job.

I think it'll be more like a special edition or a side edition for whoever wants it. But yes, it is fugly and a fucking joke.

Edit: Yeah, it looks like that's some sort of a different edition, since I searched for the French release and I got the usual cover.

Does the series take inspiration from something Benjamin Lacoumbe did or???

Benjamin Lacoumbe is the name of the person who illustrated the alternative cover.

 

[xAsum0x]

Why are you dickriding NN before it even comes out?

Leave him alone

 

[SharkBait]

Benjamin Lacoumbe is the person who illustrated the alternative cover.

yeah but why did they choose him? I didnt know if he had a connection to it, if the jpn artist likes his artwork or if he had some relevance or connection.

Since the others are done, I guess the company just chose artists at random.

BLack Clover got the best one.

Are these just rereleases? Shocked if france is really only just starting to release these series when us in America had the mangas for a while.

 

[Caiops]

One Piece has great adventures, but I feel that since the timeskip its main genre isn't adventure anymore: apart from Zou arc it's just battle battle and battle.

Don't get me wrong, I don't blame Oda or think One Piece is bad because of this. It's the natural progression of the story.

Adventure is still the focus point.

The series is still about adventuring and exploring new locations

Hell people complain because Oda doesn't focus on fights as much and off panels them or rushes them. So idk how fighting is the focal point as u said.

 

[Bluenotebook]

Even if I ever got that attached to a series, normally there'd be weeks and weeks of that series sitting at the bottom to emotionally prepare yourself for its cancellation.

Rereleases. For example, Black Clover has been released in France since september 2016. What's new is the fact that, for the very first time in France, some mangas will have an alternate cover drawn by French artists who admire those works. It would be a reversible one.

And yet we get a full page of posts whenever Togashi recommends something.

Togashi is not a famous person, like an actor or singer, he is a famous mangaka, it is completely different. Mangakas are also fans, hardcore fans, so hardcore that they chose their profession based on it. XD
Even so, I don't get hyped with recommendations by other mangakas, the only I remember now was when Oda recommended Your Lie in April and I was already thinking about reading it.

From Jump, the saddest cancellations for me were Ougamadoki Zoo, Samon and Cross Manage.
