Mag Talk Weekly Shonen Jump [2018] - Discussion and TOC Talk

Is there even an ongoing Original Soccer manga running anywhere anymore

Be Blues! is still going in Sunday since 2011.

Be Blues! is still going in Sunday since 2011.

This is sad, so JUMP is the only place without soccer

 

[Mankichi Togawa]

I loved Shudan, and Ole Golazo looked so good ;_;

Fun fact how besides Captain Tsubasa, only Jump football manga which was succesful was Whistle...and is always the most forgotten end of 90-beginning of 00 Jump title. Despite having sold well.

 

[TheEnhancedExe]

I guess Act-Age's survival depends on how many new series we get next round since it actually went above Robo again. If it's just two, only Boze will get cancelled since HxH went on hiatus again. If it's three, Act-Age is the most likely to get axed alongside Boze, unless they decide to axe Jujutsu early. If it's more than three new series, Act-Age is dead for sure.

Btw, does anyone know if we'll get the first volumes of Boze and Act-Age next month?

 

[Belkac3m]

I read the first 2 chapters of Act-Age and it's so boring.

 

[Mankichi Togawa]

Act-tage worst thing for me is art. Story is ok. And I like how MC walks in a thread between interpreting and being a sociopath.

 

[Belkac3m]

I have no problem with the story and the theme, but the way they tell it make it boring for me, In addition to the art.

It make me think, it must be hard when you are 20 years old to live this dream of jump author then being axed after 10 chapter or more.

In other order of news, today marks 20th anniversary of first anime episode from one of most important Jump titles we've had. How fast runs time.

Is that the first series or the second series? I remember binging the 220+ episodes of the second series during the summer right before high school. The soundtrack was so dope.

Why are you posting this here instead of the One Piece/Dragon Ball/Black Clover/Hero Academia thread? You're just proving the tradition that all OP/DB/BC/MHA fans care about is sales.

Yeah why is he posting manga sales in a subform about manga? He should be posting music sales numbers instead!

 

[Sir Isley]

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.

Can you please stop lumping all fans together? I enjoy BC however, there's only like 3 active BC posters here in this thread. I only post about when someone is outright wrong during a criticism fest.

 

[SharkBait]

I enjoy BC

Thank you for your undying support of this underrated series.

 

[jagman1x3]

Posting sales for everything in the magazine at once seems fine for now, posting sales for a single series should go in its own forum (unless it was the only thing in the magazine that sold that week or something idk).

If it keeps devolving into arguing over which series is more shit though, sales numbers are going to have to go.

Are you going to ban the TOC too?

 

[shoyoboyo]

If it's not One Piece levels, then it's shit.

That's right, HxH is trash. Trash, I say!

 

[TyVip]

I was kinda right, as long as there are buffer series, Robot will keep on living. At least two more will fail in the current batch so it will be safe once again.

 

[WyldViolet]

Even if it's edgy and is probably just leading us to a timeskip, this is easily the best Black Clover arc so far. I've been genuinely invested which is something I'd never thought I'd say.

Meanwhile this arc of MHA feels like a glorified filler arc...

Btw, The Promised Neverland, Hinomaru Sumo, and Robot x Lazerbeam make me feel like I'm in middle school again desperate for the next chapter or episode, utterly immersed.
Noah's Notes feels like this too.

Shame Kimetsu no Yaiba is so boring now and Dr. Stone is and has been a mess.

 

[jagman1x3]

Are you going to ban the TOC too?

good idea

 

[Mankichi Togawa]

You can see there are 4 levels of Jump titles based in Shueisha own actions:

3rd level aka the newbies (Noah's Notes, Jujutsu, Ziga). Don't remember right now the name, it was something new invented last month, so BOZEBEATS and Act-tage were already out of this.

2nd level aka Jump Super Push (Black Clover being the big veteran there)

Phantom level aka pre-2015 Jump titles which are already veteran and they aren't so merchandised as rest of series because they are going to end soon, can sell on their own, or other reasons (Gintama, Shokugeki, Hinomaru. Yes, Shokugeki is in the Phantom Level).

1st level aka the current big franchises of Jump, the Big 3

 

[Caiops]

I swear to god, if they announce the Dr.Stone anime before Kimetsu, i'm going to....




block Sharkbait.


Btw, Production I.G is doing a great job with LOTGH, Kuroko character designer is a genius, i bet Production I.G CEO got the rights to the RxL anime.
