Slam Dunk on the list of best sellers. Anime Special for Yu Yu Hakusho. New Dragon Ball movie about Broly coming soon in theaters. Are we back in 1993?

I'm happy for that at the same time I want Shueisha to recover Saint Seiya, Hokuto no Ken and Kinnikuman greatness.

Well, we have Captain Tsubasa 2018 anime, that Hokuto no Ken strangely animated prequel, some Saint Seiya movies/spinoffs stuff, and next year we were getting City Hunter movie, weren't we?

PD: Shueisha still has one thing to do with early 90s. Rokudenashi Blues anime, come on Shueisha.

I’m probably in the minority, but I would like to see YYH get a continuation anime in the future.
Not something long running. Maybe just like a 13 or 25 episode season.

Never got why people want a remake though. The original still holds up and damn near perfectly adapted the manga

I mean hey im always game for some more of Togashi's content but for being an old anime, I think it'll be good for a remake. At least it would make a lot of money for them lol but seeing how we are getting the original anime for YYH on blu ray in Japan kinda negates the option of getting a remake.

Still hoping Funi grabs it

YYH anime is better than the manga, however an adaptation faithful to Togashi's character design and erratic tone would be nice. Adapt the early chapters and adapt/expand that final terrorist arc.
I also think the pacing of the original anime can be far too much of a slog. Especially during the Dark Tournament.

Ask yourself this. What exactly would a new adaptation bring to the table that'll make the old adaptation obsolete outside updated visuals? When HxH 2011 got a remake it was because the original adaptation never finished the story and had a completely different feel to the tone of the manga both of which were fixed in the new adaptation (except the complete part). If the original YYH is as perfect an adaptation you could get what's the point of remaking it when it has nothing to offer?

I think adapting the early chapters would just be better as OVAS, rather than remaking the entire thing

Huh? i'm on the side of not wanting a remake.
I'd like to see a short sequel to the original though. Maybe in the form of a movie or a short 1-Cour or 2-Cour season

''Rokudenashi Blues has never been adapted to animated television, and today it is the longest Jump manga to have never been given a TV anime.'' (Land of Obscusion).

I am taking here about the 12th Jump manga with most number sales (42 volumes, 1989-1997). The author had a ''rivalry'' with Slam Dunk author according with Vol.2 exhibition interview.

Maeda deserves a TV anime. Now that 90s are back, is the time.

That HOT preview from Amano sure looks cool as hell, looking forward to it

(Hopefully the translator for HZ gets married too soon to get another chapters' badge drop like with Act Age XD)

Looool didn't it happen recently when another group was trying to snipe the series from them?. They're only 2 or 3 chapters behind, not too bad that.

There has been in these last 2 pages some very interesting analysis about Act-age situation. What would you say for Jujutsu (since is more or less in same situation)?

The pacing is strange, but I like the writing and appreciate the growth of the MC through the author expanding upon the power system. Author also does a good job of foreshadowing. Its alot more generic than Act Age so ppl are gonna be less impressed.

I quite like it. Less than Act-Age but still like it. Jujutsu is a manga that initially I thought that it was going to be something bad and cancelled without even reading when it got translated but after seeing people praising it, I gave it a chance and now I see it's appeal as well. It's a series quite unique on the magazine right now. It deals with battle manga things but using a much more violent approach and also uses it's elements well like the exorcist thing, unlike Bozebeats. The art is a bit rough but I think that it's part of the appeal and the author can make it better in future chapters.

About the characters, I like all of the main ones. They're still no fleshed out of course but they're quite interesting and charismatic to me. The Sensei is the best one in my opinion.

 

[shoyoboyo]

I enjoy Jujutsu for what it is, but I have this strange feeling while reading it that's hard to explain. The best way I can explain it is like I feel lost. If I could explain it better I could. Maybe if I reread it I can get a better grasp of my feelings toward it.

Does anyone even want Galaxy Gangs to become a sries anymore? Remember how much hype Golem Hearts received before it got picked up for serialization and how it turned out> Do you really want that happening to Galaxy Gangs?

 

[shoyoboyo]

It's still Galaxy Gangs, just renamed like Romance Dawn for One Piece

 

[Chuck_Atlas]

Nah, I want Zippo! to become the next big thing! Come back already Shibata!

there's a certain member that's using Galaxy Gangs' mc as his avatar in this thread right now

anyway, I'm looking forward to number 9 since I liked the original version

Galaxy Gangs being serialised would ruin the fun, like how Waluigi can never get the spotlight.

I always forget about rookie jump, is there anyone who started off there who's now doing pretty well in Jump+ proper or in a magazine?
