RIP Hinata

ESJ cover

Oh boy this cover is a joke in the sense in how much they cut you can feel how much Japan actually cares about the anniversary compared to viz ( really hope they read this comment and take this to heart)

I feel like if Viz didn't alter the covers it would raise interest in series that aren't in the english magazine

Not much they can do since the majority of those titles aren't licensed. Blame Posuka and Bouichi's shit taste.

 

[OtterBrigade]

All Viz actually cut was Hinata on the horse though. The rest are on some dust jacket or the back or something. They probably should have put Soma/Hikaru on their cover to fill the empty space from Hinata though.

Its a digital issue. And all they'd really have to show is Emma and Senku since those are the only other titles running in Viz Jump.

And Soma and We Never Learn. Alice and Taiyo's last chapter is in that issue as well and Viz has had previous Jump Starts on group covers if the Start is ongoing. Emma is kinda posed awkwardly with the other character (no idea who it is) though. Do we even know if Posuka drew them seperate? If not Emma is probably impossible to use.

Im surprised Burn The Witch hasn't been released in english yet by some group given its Kubo.

That's precisely why. We should get a translation by the weekend the latest unless people just don't care then we at least have Viz on Monday.

Thank you. I think the problem stems from the characters they're besides rather than space.

 

[Doughboy]

I just can't shake the sight of Byakuka in the dark haired girl and Ichigo mixed with Yuzu in the blonde trap(?). Odd premise too but I'd follow if Kubo took off with it.

For some reason I can't see Naruto as Horikoshi's favorite character. For me it was an editorial need.

Editor-in-chief: Who's going to stand next to Asta on the cover?
Editor: Hiei.
Editor-in-chief: C'mon man, why not Yusuke? Is Tabata a fujo?
Editor: I-I don't know.
Editor-in-chief: Whatever, who did Furudate choose?
Editor: Cascade.
Editor-in-chief: Who?
Editor: It's the horse from Mi-
Editor-in-chief: A horse? A fucking horse?! Remind me to cancel Haikyuu!! tomorrow.
Editor: Haikyuu!! sells 800k.
Editor-in-chief: Oh, hehe, forget what I said. Posuka-chan now.
Editor: Talulu from Magical Talulu-kun.
Editor-in-chief: You got to be kidding me!
Editor: Pixiv artists are weird, boss.
Editor-in-chief: Yeah, and she'll be weird on the back cover as punishment. Next!
Editor: Horikoshi chose Rock Lee.
Editor-in-chief: No.
Editor: What?
Editor-in-chief: He's going to draw Naruto.
Editor: But h-
Editor-in-chief: No 'but'. It's an anniversary cover, we need iconic main characters, so it's going to be the damn Naruto.
Editor: I'll ask him to sleep an hour instead of two and redo the drawing.
Editor-in-chief: Do it. What about Oda?
Editor: Goku.
Editor-in-chief: See? That's good sense. Oooooook, now let's talk about the new series. I think JUMP MILLION MASTERS X is a good name to promote them, what do you think?

Thank you. I never know I need this in my life.

 

[Heiji]

I don't know if anyone's ever said it :

-Big news for One Piece will be annoncing 22/07
-The oneshot Burn the Witch of Tite KUBO will be available, with its double page color, in a booklet of 192 pages which will be present in the box JET. In the booklet one will also find sketches, unpublished pages as well as data on Bleach.

 

[MangAniMY]

I should buy JET..

funnily enough I found that if I were to buy JET from amazon jp, including shipping it will still be cheaper than what Japanese have to pay for because of tax,

also my local retailer put a freaking 100usd markup for the book.

 

[iceemperor]

And all before he sets off to the USA. They're going to scare him off.

I'm pretty sure half the people that say these things wouldn't say anything face to face. Besides, the questions at SDCC will probably be screened in some way beforehand.
