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

These numbers for Robo mean that cancellation is still far off despite its placement in the TOC. Its not fantastic for a Jump series but its still a good amount when you look at it from an industry perspective.

If the sales of the manga don't deteriorate in the future I can see it getting an anime adaptation. If it gets animated by Production I.G, the manga sales would probably spike up.

The thing is though, Robo's sales on Oricon have actually already deteriorated from Volume 1. Volume 4 left the top 100 at around 78k, leaving the top 50 at 67753 copies. Volume 3 did 78k before dropping out of the top 50. It started out as the best selling series of the 6in round but eventually became the lowest, barely being outsold by Stone last volume. Stone dropped out of the top 100 at 80500, dropping out of the top 50 at

It remains to be seen if its able to stop dropping and stay steady and I know I said its not up for cancellation yet simply based on those print numbers, but again, its in a weird situation.

WOAH what the fuck? Is this real life? I actually forgot about that manga since no chapters past the first one were translated. Now I feel bad for changing my avatar lol

 

[Scruffy8642]

Ooh Magmel anime is nice. I suppose we can't expect much though since it's a Plus series. Director is the guy who did the whole of Shippuuden.

You had me at Shippuden

I expected the new serialization round to have no action manga since the last round (Jujustsu-Noah-Ziga) were all action manga

but I'm still disappointed, 2 forgettable miniseries that already ended on Giga, seriously? the shogi one even got a volume released which sold horribly

the most I've been uninterested in a round since Judos, HiFiCluster, Sporting Salt round

but hey: Gunjou no Magmel is getting an anime HYYYYYYYYYYYPEEEEEEEEEE

don't fuck this up studio clown

 

[Mankichi Togawa]

Gunjou no Magnel was a Jump manga? Never heard of it

Black Clover number sales are so crappy

 

[Mammo]

it's a Chinese manhua that is translated to Japaneses and published on Jump Plus

it's pretty Dark Continent-ish and even got Togashi's seal of approval

It's good to see these numbers, Robot and WNL are series that I really like.
I hope these numbers increase and at some point come the anime.

 

[Aipom626]

I wonder what the numbers for Dr. Stone are. I guess We Never Learn must sell more volumes in its backlog when a new volume comes out than RxL does since I thought each new volume of Robot has outsold both WNL and Stone

I'll be honest but I don't really understand the Oricon table. I've been looking at:

http://book-rank.net/rank/data.cgi?all=5&word=9784088811857&mode=rank&bt=2

Not 100 percent sure if the information is reliable based on the book-rank website, but comparing the sales between Volume 1 and 4 it has deteriorated like you mentioned. Hopefully, it find's some steady footing not a perfect manga in any way shape or form, but more of a guilty pleasure reading manga.

Look like Ufotable will realise a anime for Shueisha. Will be annonced may 5.

 

[ShenGao]

The Promised ufotable Neverland?

 

[MangAniMY]

let the speculations begins, (Shueisha have such a big selection to choose from it could be anything from any of their magazines)

two female VA... hm...
then again they can just voice a male character

edit:I've checked their previous works, all female characters

 

[OtterBrigade]

edit:I checked their previous works, all female characters

Neither have done a lot of roles so they always could do their first now. I would think if it was TPN they'd have Emma, Ray and Norman's if they were going to bring seiyuu.

Out of all the WSJ series the thing 2 female characters being used to promoted that immediately jumps out to me is We Never Learn with Rizu and Fumino.
I don't particularly think it's a WSJ series though.

 

[Nakura]

It could be the VAs of Emma and Isabella.

Watch it somehow be Kimetsu no Yaiba though, with Tanjirou being played by a girl(which could happen whenever it gets an anime).

 

[Inumaru]

It's probably a Toriko remake, since they didn't had the chance to adapt the series after the OVA, and this time Toriko will have a female VA, like Son Goku.
I just want my Kanata no Astra anime. Come on Jump+ do me this favor.

 

[ChocoBar9]

Look like Ufotable will realise a anime for Shueisha. Will be annonced may 5.

If this was ufotable from a few years back I would be excited but their non-Type Moon adaptations have been a mixed bag but still a very interesting choice if true. I know GOD EATER was a production diaster but Takayuki Hirao is the only director that I think could do it justice, Spirial Labyrinth is a modern animated masterpiece and its entire tone is how I'd imagine what a Neverland anime should feel like.
