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

[OtterBrigade]

I hope it doesn't flop here because I already ordered the first 3 volumes and I'm ready for the long haul now that I have a more stable income.

Has Viz dropped anything since like 2010? They might start reducing release frequency (like some Sunday and Shoujo stuff from them is years behind and get volumes like every 6 months) but I don't think they'll drop it

dissapointing theres no more free Haikyuu to read on viz site

 

[shoyoboyo]

Did they only do 2 chapters? That's all that shows up for me.

they were doing a volumes worth of chapters every month

So, now that we are already in 2018, it's okay to ask this question;

In your opinion. which 3 were WSJ's pillars for the 2010s?
One Piece is an obvious answer. I want an answer that isn't Naruto because Naruto ended many years ago.

 

[xAsum0x]

Haikyuu, MHA

 

[savethecat]

Can we discuss which studios and staff we want to see receive We Never Learn and Dr.Stone(since it’s next in line for an anime and is going to be in the announcement territory soon)

If its stuff that already ended that AssClass would also be out but I'll count it. I don't consider OP a pillar as its more of a foundation/bedrock for Jump now. Pillars would have to be AssClass, Haikyuu and Heroaca. If its current stuff then its right now only Haikyuu and Heroaca. Neverland needs a little bit more time but should get up there after the anime. Soma is basically done being a big series. BC had potential but its 17 volumes and 40+ episodes and still struggles but its up for consideration. Kimetsu and the rest need more time or at least until their respective anime start to be considered as pillars.

Haikyuu!!
BLack Clover
Food Wars

 

[Avok]

One Piece, AssClass and Haikyuu. Kuroko and HeroAca are up there too.

Viz has had months where they just release chapters daily right at the end of the month so we're within the time for them to do that again

MHA, Haikyuu and without counting One Piece, Shokugeki no Soma, at least by sales. By the general magazine I would put Neverland in the place of Soma.

Can we discuss which studios and staff we want to see receive We Never Learn and Dr.Stone(since it’s next in line for an anime and is going to be in the announcement territory soon)

By staff I have no idea what I would want but in studios for WNL Shaft is the better to me because of Nisekoi and Dr. Stone maybe Lerche

 

[Nakura]

Haikyu and My Hero Academia are the only 2 I'd consider pillars currently(other than One Piece obviously). The Promised Neverland is on track to being there too though.

Any answer that isn't One Piece, Haikyuu, MHA, and Neverland is factually wrong and biased. It's not even an opinion based question.

Shaft for WNL is the obvious answer. For Dr. Stone, I agree with the others that say it's right up Toei's alley, but for some reason I don't think that will happen. Then again, I'm also not really in agreement with the idea that it's "next in line for an anime" because it's sales are okay at best and I think they've stagnated.

Kurobas and Assassination Classroom.

Digital sales strongly suggest and highly implies that BLack Clovers carries enough sales power and fame to make it an integral pillar of jump.

 

[savethecat]

Well I think it’s clear that Jump is really pushing and focusing on Dr.Stone. It’s unlikely it’ll be axed at this point.

With WNL announcement presumed to be next issue Dr.Stone is the series in anime range to not have an anime. So I’d imagine it’ll be next in line after WNL

You're right, if you count the digital sales, Black Clover probably is a 1kk seller.

 

[tirakai]

Toriko was definitely marketed a pillar for the early 10s, sure it never got to the usual level in sales but pillars these days are mostly just who gets top billing for marketing anyway.

Otherwise Ass Class, Haikyuu, and MHA (and possibly Kuroko?) have all been pillars at some point in the 10s.

 

[101nemesis]

I know it isn't actually a question for opinion but I was interested in seeing what people thought, in their eyes, were the 3 big series for this decade. All factual data aside.

That's all you're getting from me for this bait
