It only took them 5 volumes to realize that in Japan.

It surprises me people still respond to SharkBait. Anytime I see his posts, I just scroll right over them..

Because 9 out of 10 of his posts are about cute boys, which is more adorable and funny. I have seen comments on this site which were more infuriating or even disturbing at times.
Also, Sharkbait is able to write good posts if he want to, so I see it just as fair to react to him, as long you're aware about his nature.

Worth noting there is an ignore feature on this site, you know.

... HOLY [BEEP], I DIDNT KNOW THAT!
No need to be afraid of more gray hairs, I guess.

21-22 since is double issue, I guess cover will be all Jump characters.

Please don’t ban me jagman or niichan. Just adding that sharkbait actually has highly knowledgeable posts when dude wants to so idrc either about when he uses hyperbole, l find it amusing and keep scrolling. I remember the user GIA would just bait people and contradict himself so shamelessly to where you got annoyed. Not even just mha fans but he would say he found BC trash and the next day would say he’s a fan. Or My Hero will get canceled and that he dropped it but two days later say the recent chapter was great. Not mention the VETERANS thing. This thread I like posting in because of dedicated posters and the discussion, also I was wondering where all the info comes from first, but people who think mha vs bc or female characters arguments are bad now should just read the convos from the previous thread.

Can Act-age still bound back? 2 more weeks before Jujutsu first rank. I hope it will provide some cushion for Act-age

 

[MangAniMY]

The act-age dream is still alive! (just barely)

need more buffer, I offers juju to the sacrificial altar

No, shit was dull anyways

1)　38,565　　Black Clover OP "PAiNT it BLACK" by BiSH

This is good ?

Why are you posting this here instead of the Black Clover thread? You're just proving the tradition that all BC fans care about is sales.

Yes. It's good. In comparison, (comparisons don't really work well in this situation), but:
*4.　*27,853　*,*27,853　Boku no Hero Academia OP "The Day" by Porno Graffitti

Same amount of days for the release.
Hate myself for doing an unnecessary comparison like this, but it'll give you perspective.
Around 30k is normal for popular anime.

Then why did you even do it in the first place especially when there has been plenty of recently released singles from other Jump anime for the past 2 years?

The only reason I want ActAge to survive is I think the artist could use the practice and refine her drawing talent

 

[SharkBait]

Come on ziga you can do it.

Im glad BLack clover fans remain receptive and responsive to the current arc.

At this rate HeroAca may finish the year performing less stellar than BLack Clover average rank wise. Horikoshi needs to revisit the drawing board and figure out how to make heroaca great again.

I don't really think so, if it does it, it will barely be able to pull it off. Maybe the manga will get a chance to rebound until we see how things go with Jujutsu, Noah's Notes and Ziga. What are the chances Act-age can become a bottom dweller of the TOC placements that manages to stay around for a long time(like Spring Weapon)? - the chances are very low

Maybe it will suddenly get a better TOC placement, but will it be able to do that consistently enough? We know Bozebeats is dead. Will Act-age be dragged down with it as well? We seem to be getting a few One-shots and a new serialization round doesn't seem that far away.

The act-age dream is still alive! (just barely)

Is the dream still alive? If it manages to stick around, it will barely be able to pull it off. It's in a weird place, that's for sure, with Boze having a guaranteed death and I have my doubts about Ziga and Jujutsu lasting for longer than 4 volumes.

I wouldn't mind if it survived, I like what I've seen of it so far. It definitely left more of an impression on me than Boze, Ziga and Jujutsu. If it does get axed, I wouldn't be devastated, but it would be unfortunate. I think this chance the duo got will result in valuable experience being gained for not only the artist, but for the writer as well.

Hopefully Boze ends next chap and Act Age next so we can keep it pushin with the new series

 

[SharkBait]

We need a new sports series to come to replace Act-Age. Its baseball season afterall.
