There's a ToC on Baidu but it's in chinese which is unusual, should I post it?

I trust your judgment. If you think it's reliable, go ahead.

Its most likely true. Also that comeback from this one dead manga though, im sure some fans will be happy for it.

 

[Ryuusei]

It's from the same person that posts the ToC on a weekly basis, but it already being in Chinese is so unusual. But the next issue preview does have a part in japanese.

Let's just hold off until we get something more concrete. On discord, it was brought to my attention that Horikoshi doing a CP right after the cover seems kinda excessive for his workload.

 

[Ryuusei]

Yeah. Actually, I've seen three different versions of this week's ToC already and the guy who posts leaks on Twitter didn't post the picture of the ToC last time, only the preview so I'm pretty confused (though the leaked text of the ToC was right in the end).

I updated my last post, but I'll repeat it here.

Horikoshi doing a cover and then immediately doing a CP next issue seems excessive for him workload-wise, which further paints this ToC in a weird lighting.

Yeah, I also found that unsual. He did that in this year's early issues but I don't know.

 

[CuriousReborn]

How many color pages did Hori have this year? 3?

 

[Ryuusei]

How many color pages did Hori have this year? 3?

Only 4, 2 CPs and 2 LCPs (already counting the one on issue #35).

 

[CuriousReborn]

Only 4, 2 CPs and 2 LCPs (already counting the one on issue #35).

Not really sure how its excessive to have two color pages back to back when you are the second biggest manga in the magazine and only had a total of 3 CP before then. Not to mention he has been doing non stop 19 pages every week compared to a year ago when it was 15 or less, so I dont think its actually an issue for him.

 

[Ryuusei]

As usual, Horikoshi's art don't miss. Color's so on point. Also, really enjoy the unusual pose and angle for a cover.

Its not really unusual, if anything I feel like we have seen the same pose multiple times already.

 

[Shinuki no Reborn]

Ehh, for me the cover is kinda weird, expected something more "fancy" considering all the time since the last one and being the 6th anniversary but the color page will probably be great

Its not really unusual, if anything I feel like we have seen the same pose multiple times already.

In fact at first it seems more like they just picked a used art promotion and slapped in the cover lol

I mean, last year he only had 4 CPs and they were all LCPs. It would be weird seeing him have back to back CPs twice this year.

Last year his page count was way less. Now its not, so clearly whatever was troubling him is no longer an issue for him.

 

[ChrissyR5]

I'm more hype for the CP. Horikoshi's 5th anniversary CP was so amazing one of favourites.

 

[Aeneas]

Its not really unusual, if anything I feel like we have seen the same pose multiple times already.

Checked, and it looks like it's the first one with his finger flick.

Which is funny since they were considering the pose (though not upside down) back for that #3 2015 cover.
