Mag Talk Weekly Shonen Jump [2019] - Discussion and TOC Talk

ne0;lation is the most innovative and unique manga running in jump that set it's self apart from others with its avant-garde storytelling that marries genres. Really impressive.

I find ne0 very entertaining to read, but "avant-garde storytelling" sure is not one of the things that exists in this manga lol.

So we are ending a cycle. 4-5 consolidated series are ending (Kimetsu, Neverland, Shokugeki, Yuuna, and maybe Hinomaru).

That also means we are going to get between 2019 and 2020 at least 3-4 titles that aren't going to be axed (and are going to get consolidated)

Eh, this could be a reason why Shueisha could be more patient with these newbies. Same is going with Kodansha and WSM, which is going to possibly lose both Seven Deadly Sins and Ahiru no Sora this year!

Somehow i like Ne0. I was a fan of Bloody Monday, so I give it a shot.

But I dropped Chainsawman, in my opinion, its terrible. Maybe it will get better .
Time will tell.

 

[OtterBrigade]

Personally I find Chainsaw kinda meh. It started off as my favourite but at this point I probably prefer Ne0. Wouldn't be too hung up at any of them being axed though.

I missed the post that 2 new series were coming up. I'm pretty interested to learn more about both of them. Between the Dark Trio, my order of how I've liked them has pretty constantly shuffled. Right now, I'd probably say Higuma > Ne0 > Chainsawman, but I don't really dislike any of them. At the same time, I don't think I'd feel crushed if they left as long as they're not replaced by more exorcism series

So with Chainsawman having Denji feeling some boobs, his dream is accomplished, therefore his series will end first, right? XD

omg if true.

 

[OtterBrigade]

Technically he hasn't felt them yet so something will probably happen to stop him next week (unless it's axed in which case rip)

That would be the absolute greatest ending for a series. It'd definitely go down in the history books for most iconic, concise, fulfilling ending. I actually hope that's how this series ends now lol

Cleaner Version. That is indeed two females, so rumors of a romance seem to be true.

 

[SharkBait]

missed opportunity to be progressive and inclusive and have a romance with two male leads. disappointing.

 

[OtterBrigade]

Who says it's not a romance between the two girls? As far as I know we've only seen those two.

 

[shoyoboyo]

Jump has enough gay tension, it's time for the yuri tension.

 

[Shinuki no Reborn]

Since when having two female main characters means romance? the one with black hair is tied with chains and this is Hiroshi Shiibashi so it's probably some fantasy/dark thing, also this is a shounen magazine aimed to boys, not a yuri magazine so you will not see a yuri manga being published, at most some yuri vibes/bait.

 

[SharkBait]

Jump has enough gay tension, it's time for the yuri tension.

theres millions of yuri animes and mangas, its time for BL to get its chance in jump and mainstream media.

 

[xAsum0x]

It’s softcore yuri smut and you’ll like it

 

[OtterBrigade]

g, also this is a shounen magazine aimed to boys, not a yuri magazine so you will not see a yuri manga being published, at most some yuri vibes/bait.

Technically Gangan Joker has Happy Sugar Life. I feel like there was one in Magazine too but Google isn't bringing anything up so I'm probably wrong.

 

[savethecat]

I'm actually a little more interested in the Monkey King series

 

[Shinuki no Reborn]

What a surprise to realise that Saigo no Saiyuuki is written by the Mutou Black author, it took 6 years to come back after the fiasco lol

Technically Gangan Joker has Happy Sugar Life. I feel like there was one in Magazine too but Google isn't bringing anything up so I'm probably wrong.

Yes but Gangan Joker is kind of a more "mature" shounen magazine with many horror/gore mangas and some yuri bait mangas too.

 

[Tarot]

Yonagi Kei is Jump's #1 heroine. Her growth has been amazing and the series just keeps getting better and better. It's good to see the writer and artist find their footing.

 

[Jovan]

I think there is another possibility for Kamio Yui wo Kami o Yui. What if they do the exact same thing as with Moka on Rosario to Vampire where the MC dark persona is locked by something hair related?
