*102907 *102907 Black Clover

Wait correct me if I'm wrong but
Black Clover 14 debuted with 139k sales in the first week.
Black Clover 13 debuted with 100k sales in the first week.

And now Volume 15 debuts with 102k sales in the first week. Did it just drop??

 

[ShenGao]

How many days of sales were there for the new volumes?

So 3 days. That means Kimetsu's growth slowed down again.

│*65861(3)│------│------│------│------┃65861(3)┃2018/03｜鬼滅の刃 10
From volume 4 to volume 5 Kimetsu sold nearly double the amount. From volume 5 to volume 7 it sold 16k more. But from volume 7 to volume 10 it only sold 8k more.
I guess at around 140k it will drop off from the list.

 

[Franz]

Why three days are missing ?

 

[razerxs]

First, I want to point out this

│36418 (3)│66013│-------│-------│-------┃66013 (10)┃2018/02｜Dr.STONE 4

So 3 days.

I'm actually not sure. One Piece is apparently down 200K so maybe my count is off.

 

[Franz]

Thanks

Please stop, i'm going to cry.

Stop..

Its already dead ;-;

I'm are we still here, just to suffer? I can feel RobotxLaserbeam cancelled, i can't feel the anime making it sell 400k..

 

[Inumaru]

If people aren't reading RxL in the magazine, they should just move it to Jump Plus. It will keep selling anyway, because of the author's name. At least we'll have a free spot in the magazine for a possible new talent.

I mostly lurk here but I've come out of lurking to comfort you, fellow KuroBasu and Robo fan. Don't think of cancellation just yet. There are other options. Robo still sells decently even if its sales have stagnated. It could very well be transferred to Jump+.

Another thing to note is that there are two new manga and three others coming in this round. One of them could flop, or maybe 2. That would give Robo some more time. (I'm not wishing for any manga to flop, just saying that it might happen, that's all. I love Act-Age.)

About the anime: No one can predict what kind of a boost an anime will give its manga. It could be big, it could be small, it could be nothing. We've just got to hope and pray, that is all we can do.

Robo could also be the new Spring Weapon, who knows?

 

[shoyoboyo]

I think Robo would.have to be funny to be the next Spring Weapon

 

[Chuck_Atlas]

It can at best be the next Kurogane / Sesuji

 

[Avok]

I don't think they'll cancel RxL. Not without giving it an anime first.

 

[SharkBait]

Shocked if there are companies legit interested in pouring money into RxL.

 

[Koi Kage]

Shocked if there are companies legit interested in pouring money into RxL.

There's money to be made just buy marketing items the characters wears/uses alone not to mention making money using Robo and Youzan as advertisement for a golf course/game. So I wouldn't say that there isn't any company not willing to put money into RxL.

 

[Mankichi Togawa]

I still think one of key aspects of RxL flopping would be the very same theme of golf. Unlike basketball in Kuroko, golf doesn't have so much impact and spectacle, dunno.

By the way, wasn't Nanatsu no Taizai author somewhat succesful in Jump with a golf title?

 

[Mr.Fujimaster]

If RxL continues to sell 100k in a month, it will not be canceled.
I still believe that RxL will stay in the magazine for 3 years and will have anime.

Yes
He did Rising Impact.

i'm not going to sit here and say you guys are wrong or right, but so far the odds are stack AGAINST it right now.

• Stagnant sales. Go back and look at KnB sale, it was increasing every volume up until volume 18.
• Bottom in TOC. KnB was never at the bottom, let alone dead last for 5 weeks now.
• In this TOC the other series are shokugeki, yuuna and HZ. Well all three have an anime this year, Robo doesn't.

As i said last week, the only thing that can potentially save Robo dodges the bulletwould be every new series flop within the next 6 months. So Act Age, Bozebeat + the 3 new series.

inb4 someone shoves Buso Renkin at me

Success or not aside,
------------------------
Do you guys actually enjoy Robo, or is it because it has Fujimaki name in it? So you have to force yourself to like it, like eating bread without peanut butter or jelly.
