thats an epic HQ cover, glad they went with the knives imagery, though wouldnt have minded if they went with the Hinata in a Birdcage one.

Do you believe that the next volume of My Hero will exceed that of HQ?

Which HQ volume? Current, the comparison doesnt really seem sensible, comparing a volume post the conclusion of the anime to one that hasnt been animated for three years now, doesnt really make sense to me.

That Boruto cover is so wannabe edgy, it's just cringe.

Truth.
The target MHA needs to surpass is the peak HQ volume numbers, not the numbers HQ has had after the decline.

I'm not sure what's more cringe, Boruto's Hot Topic edgelord with that prison tattoo on his face or a volleyball manga depicting a knife fight on some pile of garbage surrounded by crows and cats as it's cover.

You must be new to symbolism... Have you not seen volume covers 16 and 19? Were those just as cringe in your opinion?

Did anyone mention that Jump Force will be out exactly 30 years after Famicom Jump?

Famicom Jump - February 15, 1989
Jump Force - February 15, 2019

Hot Topic edge-lord with prison tattoo is definitely a 100% more cringe.

I can see why someone would think HQ looks cringe as well but in it's defense HQ has always portrayed the crows and symbolism in that manner and makes sense if you read the manga.

Really dont get why would someone label the HQ cover as cringe, as it was said it is pure symbolism; in that regard its no different from the previous HZ cover with burning Onimaru

Attempted symbolism doesn't necessarily make something good.

I saw them right now for the first time and they are cringe, too. Holding a spear, a giant shield or two characters wielding knives ready to stab each other is cringe AF when you consider that they are playing volleyball. What's next, holding an AK-47 as symbolism for "my shots will penetrate your team"?

I don't think there's any good cover from Boruto. It's the worst of the entire series of the magazine. It's straight up disgusting.

Yeah, I personally don't like this artist's art style for Naruto characters. His proportions and the angles he chooses for the characters don't go well with that whole universe.
I'm sure if he did something on his own, his own original stuff, it'd be great. Just, it doesn't work for Naruto.

I disagree.

The artist Makes Kawaki look amazing cool poses and clothes, ONe of the Kawaki color pages was like one of the best color pages in the entire manga.
