I like the two Jump Start.

Alice and Taiyo is good. Prefer seiji a bit more but a band manga has potential. If it survives I hope it gets an anime and has Grimgars band (K)NoW_NAME do the misic.

I'm not sure if these are store specific or something, I'm not even sure what natsucomi in this means (my mind immediately think of summer comiket)

Natsucomi is just a thing they do every year where you get little magnets for buying volumes. Any store can get them, I even got one at Kinokuniya in America but it's random and I got Black Clover so that was a disappointment.

so you are saying I'll have a chance of getting one here at my local(ish) kinokuniya?

Not sure if it applies to all locations since I go to the main store, but it's a safe bet you'll be able to. Give them some time after it starts to get the shipments and they'll probably put some signs up.

The strange part, to me anyway, is that its not particularly different from other fluff short manga. Sure what the mains do is different but the fluff factor is still the "same". I guess you never know what will blow up and what won't as I'm not sure he'll get anywhere close to this much attention for a continuation.

Could you maybe give us a short translation?

Spoiler: plot

The main girl is called Hachiyo. She used to be a delinquent but recently got amnesia as stated by the MC (glasses guy). It turns out that he liked her when she was a delinquent. On pg. 2 he tells her what the next class is and says he can tell her where is it. He then drops his pencil case which she picks up and thanks him. He thinks to himself that he's thankful but he performs a small manzai like skit in his head where he screams, "Who are you! The usual Hachiyo-san would say "Shut Up! Don't talk to me, you Virgin Glasses" " He hurries to show her the classroom and leaves thinking he'll bring back her memories as he liked her when she was a deliquent. It turns out she doesn't have amnesia and was acting. She figured that this was the only way she could approach the MC. She figured she couldn't suddenly decide to give up being a delinquent and pumps herself up to continue this act.

There was a oneshot in Gangan Joker a month or two ago that was literally the same plot except reversed, funnily enough.

Well I think I can speak for all of us when I say that I didn't expect that at all.

 

[Mori takai]

Kinda strange shueisha didn't retweet the Bleach news about Jump Force since they are posting so many Bleach related stuff in Fact I don't think they really Addressed jump Force on twitter which is a little alarming

 

[SharkBait]

Odd thing to bet on considering Furyu is having financial difficulties.

I guess Roguelike increases its chances of leaving JPN.

 

[iceemperor]

The media mix is in full force for Yuragi now. I only hope the anime can grow the series' popularity. There is quite some potential in merchandising here.

 

[Chuck_Atlas]

Hopefully it can do better than To Love Ru

That's impossible. The TLR anime across two series did really well.

This title...I can't get over how bad it is

Reminds me of Ghost Files: Yu Yu Hakusho.

Don’t think it’s that big a deal. Although I think the attention should be drawn more towards the “Kimetsu No Yaiba” part rather than the “Demon Slayer” part.

I think they added Demon Slayer because that’s a more marketable name here though

It's still dumb and doesn't excuse it.
