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

[Franz]

I know it's just 3 days, but those numbers are kinda low for TPN and MHA, aren't they?

You're already answer yourself

Red steamrolls blue for me. Two of my fav battle shonens (OP & HxH) & three of the best sports series in the magazine (Slam Dunk, Haikyuu!! & HZ) IMO.

 

[Rain Spectre]

Round 2

...Dude, that is an obvious fake. The big giveaway (besides the piss-poor photshop job) is that Shaman King is there, a series Sheisha no longer has the rights to.

 

[Aeneas]

My man put World Trigger waaaay in the back there lol.

Of course it's fanmade.

 

[OniluapL]

The side with One Piece, again. But even without it, Neverland, HxH and Eyeshield would win it for me. Unless... Is Bossun somewhere and I just didn't see it? That would tip the scale, lol.

 

[vinceled]

Blue for me, as much as I like HxH and One Piece, having Bleach, Toriko, Jojo and Naruto for me just made my choice. Then there is kimetsu and Chainsawman and I really like those two series.

 

[TheEroSennin]

I'll go with Red cause HxH, DB, Saiki, Haikyuu
I'd miss on Naruto & MHA but that's fine for me

 

[lgrmjauffre]

My major problem with that Red vs. Blue is that neither Blue Exorcist or Rosario+Vampire are Weekly Shonen Jump series.

This, really. Bugs me a weird amount

oh a new serialization round, prediction time

obvious predictions:
Exorcists manga
Baseball manga
Yuusaku Shibata return (said he was working on a new series)
Ken Ogino return (said he was working on a new series)
Kentarou Itani return (Takuan and Batso was well received despite the axe)
NisiOisiN return (have been doing oneshots left and right)
Hot by Akira Amano serialization (I mean, what else she got going on??)
Masaoki Shindou debut (GFC winner who still have not receive his prize)

realistic hopes (I just like these mangakas) :
Hakutei no Erica by Kenta Yuzuriha serialization
Tatsuya Tanimoto debut
Mitsuki Nagata debut
Yuusuke Utsumi return

unrealistic predictions (little chance of happening but would be amazing if it did) :
Dragon Garow Lee moving from Plus
Sui Ishida moving from Young Jump


I'm just doing this so I can spam meme magic if any of these prediction come true

I was comparing them to other volumes with 3 days.

 

[Mankichi Togawa]

Fist of the North Star on the blue left or Saint Seiya on the Red right. Why Must they do this to me?

I swear that after OPM, Ao no Exorcist is the series that people mistake the most as a WSJ series

What did those "realistic hopes" creators do, out of curiosity?

BTW, while I know Amano is possible, I really hope she doesn't. She is rally not a skilled enough writer to function to modern standards, and Reborn does not have enough nostalgia to support her longer than maybe six months.

 

[lgrmjauffre]

My prediction for the new serialization (50% a joke and 50% something I've been thinking about for years) is that it will be a magical girl battle parody where the girl herself is an anthropomorphized version of the WSJ pirate logo turned on its side (which resembles the profile of a young girl, as pointed out in Saiki Kusuo), but when she transforms into a magical girl, she's a walking parodical encyclopedia of Weekly Shonen Jump as a whole (as in parodying powers, tropes, etc. as in Medaka Box). Just like a self-obvious, trope heavy romp with some weird comedy thrown in there.

Kenta Yuzuriha did Hakutei no Erica oneshot (horse racing)

Tatsuya Tanimoto did Goo to Goo oneshot (highschool boxing)

Mitsuki Nagata did Dondohare oneshot (ghost buster) and she also redraw Kokoronashi no Kirimu webcomic from Jump Plus

Yuusuke Utsumi did Ultra Battle Satellite (MMA/ Baki clone manga)

Self-parody manga would be very great but the problem with it that it becomes boring pretty fast. I mean if it is just a parody. Even stuff like that still needs decent main plot and likeable characters so humor would actually makes sense.

 

[animeexpert]

Which of the remaining 2019 debuts will be the first to conclude, after The Last Saiyuki?
- Chainsaw Man
- Yui Kamio Lets Loose
- Samurai 8
- Double Taisei
- Beast Children
- Tokyo Shinobi Squad

Alternately, "which 2019 debuts will survive past the end of the year" if you want to do a poll that supports multiple votes per person.

Chainsawman is already official surviving in jump, espcially with the sales so..

Samurai 8 will obviously survive cuz KishiGooatt

Double taisei wont survive, you know how it always goes with shogi/Japanese board games. They always die after the hikari no go period

Beast children... I know he shows alot of passion for the sport but not about the "TEAM". if he keeps this phasing on, it's even slow in the old days of jump.

I see Tokyo shinobi squad surviving cuz there is still a visible fanbase compared with the other titles of jump

Oh cool, thanks for laying this out.

Can you also break down the mangakas from your "obvious predictions" category? There's some I don't recognize.

I see you and raise you to a slice of life gag manga starring the author avatars of the WSJ mangaka.

I would sincerely take that, honestly.
