So no CloverWorks? No super awesome staff?

I was always doubtful of Tanaka; the other people listed are considerably more likely.

It's also very unreasonable that Cloverworks will do TPN in good quality assuming it comes out before Spring 2019. Right now them and A-1 have 4 projects which 2 ends this season and 2 ends 2 ends in October, they already have 3 projects set for October and one of them is SAO. I really hope that Mappa/Madhouse will be the one to handle this adaptation with Kaiji's director at the helm in Winter 2019.

Just letting you know that that's normal for Cloverworks.

A-1 is notoriously known to work on multiple projects per season. Currently they have 4 shows airing simultaneously this season.

Tanaka just confirmed that he isn't doing char designs for Neverland

Oh no Yonkou.

You were the chosen one.

To be fair he did say "rumored" though if he already knew there wouldn't be any reason to post that information.

To be honest, it's probably still Cloverworks, but with someone else doing the character designs. The only other hint we have are the fact that producer(Yuichi Fukushima) and the director(Kyohei Ishiguro) both followed Demizu Posuka on Twitter.

I have faith and manga is really good but unfortunately is being very ignored in Internet. It hasn't the presence almost rest of Jump has. Same happens with Jujutsu and Act-tage.

Edit : Internet connection trolls me

That may be so in the western fandom, but its one of the most talked about series on the Japanese web. You have people that like the series to the hardcore trolls who still won't let go of what Ikezawa did back during his Kurogane days. The trolls tend to stand out more than the people who like the series though.

Well, if it's true, he can't comment in something that isn't announced yet.

What shows are you talking about? For this season they only have Wotakoi and from the last season, Nanatsu no Taizai and Grancrest Senki so it's three. What's the last one?

Kind of surprising how the majority of people on reddit still believe that Souma is going to continue and get new arcs after reading the most recent spoilers. At this point it should be fairly obvious that the manga will most likely end sometime this year and that they will only resolve the stuff that is left to resolve.

The last one is Persona and you forgot about DiTF from last season as well

I was thinking the same. In fact I think Shokugeki is ending in next 4 issues. I'm getting some Beelzebub and Medaka Box end vibes there.

 

[Franz]

It's not for sure.

Sales are good, the anime still on the air ....

He could do as Hinomaru Zumo, who initially had to stop at the end of the school year and then moved into the professional world.

 

[SharkBait]

Confirming something before the anime’s even been officially announced .

I think if the person was doing it, then they would have just not commented at all.

I don't think it will end this soon. There's still quite a bit to resolve and I don't think they can fit this in 4 chapters. It will probably end in another ~10-15 chapters though. Plus, don't they usually announce a manga ending 5 chapters before it ends, at least for the manga that surpassed 100 chapters? They did this with Naruto, Bleach, AssClass and I believe Nisekoi as well(?).

 

[Doughboy]

Wow... I hope dumbass fans don’t come for Tsukada’s twitter again tomorrow. I put Food Wars on hold but I saw some rage on Twitter and checked the spoilers and just wow. It might really be ending this year.

 

[Nemesis]

Those are produced by Cloverworks since the beginning. They changed the name of the Koenji studio for a reason and it was to give the studio individuality so just calling it A-1 is kinda unfair when they're now pretty much different studios like Studio hibari is different than Lerche or Xebec, Wit Studio and Signal.MD are different studios of the holding company of Production Ig (which is production ig after all, just the holding company)

 

[Sheep1]

Not 100 hundred percent sure if Jigokuraku has been picked up officially by Viz, But they've translated the first chapter.

guess it is too mature for the main magazine.

It's a Jump + series which they always put in the free section (Astra Lost in Space probably would have done fine in the magazine for example)

Souma has 10000000 total sales to volumes, there are many, and since they have not announced anything, I think another arc will be there.

Sales have been decreasing for quite some time though if I'm correct. Plus, in the recent chapters quite a lot of big plot points got resolved. Actually, there is barely anything left to resolve. If it continues, it will probably end up being a second Bleach.
