3 chapters are already take up more than a month of drawing.
7+ chapters are asking way too much. Especially if you're implying that serialization isn't guaranteed or, at the very least, the entire set might have to be redrawn from scratch. The current model seems to be much better for artists.

It actually looks like RH's editor was the one who asked for the slow start, based on the "waste of page space" scene that occurs later.

It's such a pity because the creator then leaves jump but the editor stays there to keep missing. OK, they might have a view in which the author is the one who should detect such mistakes, correct the pacing as much as possible when writing the first 3...as much as it seems to be the editor's responsibility.

But maybe the best thing would be some kind of test audience...

 

[Shinuki no Reborn]

I know nothing has actually been announced, but if Yozakura does get an anime what studio would you guys want to see it from?

Since i want a long running anime and Pierrot is full, Toei.

only if they give it a better budget than world trigger

 

[SharkBait]

Let Toei just focus on Dragon Quest Dai, it is still the best anime theyve ever been apart of.

 

[Stivie]

Yozakura in Studio Bone or Mappa itself.

 

[SharkBait]

isnt Mappa killing its staff, might want to go to a different studio due to overwork

 

[Pietro]

Kimetsu Backlog is starting to creep up again, are you guys ready for another year of utter oricon domination once s2 starts?

Oh please stop with that. Probably there will be more kimetsu no yaiba manga around than toilet paper... Japaneses sure are crazy, a whole crazy country

Yozakura will be animated by ufotable

 

[tirakai]

I think it might be a bit early to be talking about a Yozakura anime, remember it was often at the bottom in its first year and didn't become a stable series until almost ch 50.

The series with early anime announcements are probably the immediate big hits which gathered adaptation interest near the start (Elusive Samurai and Blue Box for example almost certainly have plans in motion already), and I don't think Yozakura would've gathered much serious interest from studios until it was consistently doing well a couple arcs into the genre shift well into year 2.

Most won't be willing to invest in a series that seems likely to get cancelled before they can adapt it after all.

I mean it's not really early, it's pretty late and most of jump isn't up for anime, so yozakura mightve gotten one due to there being not many options to grab a jump series

 

[Shinuki no Reborn]

lol how could i forgot the actual first studio prediction i did about Yozakura anime during the first year of serialization, A-1 Pictures! I want Toei if is a long running, A-1 if is a 24 seasonal anime.

We're not talking about it getting announced now, just talking what studio we personally want.

Toei is doing a lot of stuff at the moment, not only Dragon Quest, so they can just produce Yozakura alongside their other series.

Yozakura in Studio Bone or Mappa itself.

Yozakura doesn't feel like something MAPPA would do.

I remember HInomaru zumou, it sold even less than Yozakura Family and still received an anime pretty late and 24 episodes...
And there are series that get an anime at even 60 chapters

 

[Kushikime]

I really like it seems they’re giving the vets breaks. That’s OP, MHA, BC and Stone in last 4 issues (although MHA was unexpected iirc)

 

[Shinuki no Reborn]

Dr. Stone is said to be for research (again)

 

[Stivie]

Yozakura doesn't feel like something MAPPA would do.

It would be really horrible if Yozakura went to Pierrot, they didn't do a good job with Black Clover.

 

[Shinuki no Reborn]

It would be really horrible if Yozakura went to Pierrot, they didn't do a good job with Black Clover.

It did, it run for 170 episodes, constantly one of 4 most lucrative series for Tv Tokyo, has a movie being produced, and the manga still doing good, for all we know it could have been a seasonal anime, didn't get much of a boost and have like, 2 seasons at most. In the end Pierrot still made Black Clover a worldwide hit, same thing with World Trigger, everybody was like "why???" when WT anime started, but in the end Toei is the reason the series became a hit and still has a popular anime being produced, having great animation isn't everything.

 

[Cerclox]

Do you guys think WSJ will still have any long running animes after Black Clover or do you guys think that BC was the last one and from now on they will stay with the seasonal format

i cant imagine the next BLeach anime will be seasonal

I'm talking specifically about series that are currently running in the magazine, Bleach should be a long runner for sure

If you're saying a group of newbies should write manga for a test audience, who then vote for their favorite series, and the winners get to move on to the main magazine while the losers have to try something else or give up altogether, then that's just WSJ with extra steps.

I don't think RH is a victim of anything other than the author's current skill. I want him to work hard to fine-tune his writing and art styles and come back with something even more exciting in the future.

lol how could i forgot the actual first studio prediction i did about Yozakura anime during the first year of serialization, A-1 Pictures! I want Toei if is a long running, A-1 if is a 24 seasonal anime.

A-1 is my ideal studio too. I can't imagine Yozakura ever getting the same treatment as juggernauts like MHA, KNY, or JJK.

A-1 is enough. They are really good at making characters feel alive. Their action is nothing to write home about but it does the job and Yozakura's fight scenes are rarely anything extravagant. I feel like they could bring a really high level of polish to the series like they did with Kaguya-sama.

You'd have to be crazy to think Bones, Ufotable, or MAPPA would touch Yozakura with a hundred-foot poll.

Do you guys think WSJ will still have any long running animes after Black Clover or do you guys think that BC was the last one and from now on they will stay with the seasonal format

It's definitely fallen out of style. I tend to think seasonal is better for everyone as well, so I wouldn't be upset if we never had another one. But I also understand the appeal for a series like Yozakura or Mashle.

 

[SharkBait]

Mashle is the only thing I can see being a long anime but its already in the sunsetting stage.

Can only think the most traditional of jump titles (fantasy or exorcism) would get the long running treatment.

(still dont undertsand how kemono jihen wasnt a long anime, baffling)
