by this logic they should start pirates manga in every single serialization round

I mean people obviously love it

They've tried pirates and they never stuck. What was that really awful and forgettable one? I can't even remember it cause it was just that bad.

I wrote this post when the new serialization round was announced and before we get an image or the titles or the authors names



can I read the future or Nak is just that predictable
What direction would you like to see the magazine go in, is there a specific type of story you'd like to see? I personally really enjoy exorcist and demon stuff, but I wouldn't mind seeing other things. Would you like to see any authors in particular to join the magazine's lineup?

I'd love to see a new large scale adventure fantasy series. Something that has a really vast world.

I'd like to see the magazine move towards

-Boys alternative sports clubs and Cultural societies/student councils (like Free!, oregairu)
-Science fiction fantasy hybrids in the style of Stealth Symphony
-Exorcists with BL subtext in the style of Seraph of the End
-Mecha like Gundam Wing/Seed

I don't know what you are talking about (Mitsukubi Condor? that one was about magic thieves)
the only other WSJ pirates manga I can think of is Cobra (space pirate) and that was a success

I'm sure if Jump pushed sailing/seas manga as much as they have been pushing demon and horror some would have stuck

Exorcist stuff is whacked, that’s what Jump Square is for.

I don't get all the positivity surrounding Last Saiyuki. I don't think it's bad but it just kinda feels like Demon Slayer lite except it starts with MC hating his "sister" and then wanting to save her instead of just wanting to save her.

Also dropped Yui Kamio. Nothing redeeming in chapters 1 and 2.

I find Demon Slayer's art far more interesting to look at. Also going through posts on here that's the first time i've heard anyone mention "modern times" in relation to why they like it.

I dont know why, but I am bothered that in Chainsawmen, our hero is baited with sexual actions to do the Devil Hunter Business. Does anyone share my view?

On social media and other sites of perusal there is vast outcry against this series and how creepy and awkward it is to make this sexual enticement and gratification such a prominent theme and motivation for our main character. It is disgusting and offensive.

Tbf a demon tournament manga by Kawada would be GOAT.

And what if Denji wanted to grope balls instead of boobs?

Id prefer more pure and innocent forms of affection, want to hug someone or hold their hands, or just get them to notice them, and sharing passing glances that make them get all flustered (YuuMika, or SoTaku style))

Perviness outside of Doujins or comedic parody settings is just awkward (see Mineta Minoru)

No, there is not. Provide links to back your claim up, but don't make people who don't know better believe there is such a thing as a vast outrage against something, when it is not true and just a troll.

almost certain he’s trolling and talking about One Piece

Personally I’m just tired of Demon series.
We already have 2(maybe 3 with Chainsaw Man) successful demon hunting series. There’s no need for anymore.

I’m not going to dictate and beg for an oddly specific type of series I want. You’ll set yourself up for disappointment doing that. However, I do at least want something different

since Kawada writes good tournament arcs you can apply this with anything
aliens tournament
hunter tournament
ninja tournament
swordsmen tournament
if it by him him there is possibility it will be good

didn't you guys like his new oneshot?

i think he will serialize this, it looks like something you would see in Jump

don't underestimate the power of meme magic, it's how I got my wish (Dricam is about drifting rather than racing but it's close enough I'll consider it a win)

Most people don't even know Chainsawman for that to happen. lol If it gets an anime, then it'll be more believable since that always happens in adaptations as anime is bigger here

We ultimately need the miracle of Play Ball anime getting subs (or manga scans). Holy god.

Friendly reminder Play Ball was first Jump manga ever to win the Shogakukan Manga Award btw

Shonen Jump really needs a new sport manga, and i mean a mainstream sport, they should look for a new basket manga, it's been 5 years since Kuroko, Sunday got Switch made by a Furudate's assistant.
