That sounds strange...side story? Movement of where it's going to be? Or just Hoshino easing back into things?

Nope, not side story...

Like I said, Bastard mode, which makes perfect sense

Looks like Sket's 2 weeks top 5 are over now. I hate to say it, but Sket might even going to drop to bottom 5. Furthermore, Mago also went down to just above bottom 5, I hope it to move up little bit more. Also, Toriko is not doing good at lightly, is people don't like Regal Mammoth arc? I don't worry about Kuroko, yet, because series like Psyren and Sket Dance actually hit the bottom before, but manage to to survive for almost 2 years. So, I'm going to make judgement about Kuroko until its next issue's ranking.

Never read D.Gray (so I don't quite know what some of this means) but somehow a "Bastard-style" release probably could end up working for the time being. Heck, I'm surprised Togashi didn't do this with HxH by now...

Re: Weekly Shounen Jump [2009] - Discussion & TOC Talk v.2

At least Mago is just outside the bottom 5, though it's not good to see Bakuman down there again.

¿Does anybody know what the average ranking for Death Note was?

Re: Weekly Shounen Jump [2009] - Discussion & TOC Talk v.2

L vs Light-Saga was performing good...hardly any 2-digit ranks, most of the time spots from 3rd to 8th.
After it's several weeks break it returned doing good in the beginning but started falling and hit 2-digits for most time (it had quite a number of bottom 5 positions; at 14th when there were 18 series and stuff like that) and in its final phase 2006 it did a bit of a yo-yo but settled down at 10th-12th. Last two chaps ranked 4th and 5th.

How odd. I hope it returns to the magazine proper in September. Could they just be waiting for spot to open up? Pardon the ignorance but what is Bastard mode? **knows it's a reference to the WSJ/Ultra Jump series, lost after that**

OMG, I can see DGM's hiatus will be extended after Akamaru Jump.
btw, its still good to see something new ..........thanks for info

I think what he means is that between it's Jump run and moving to Ultra Jump, Bastard was published infrequently in stuff like Akamaru. Not too sure myself but it's what I heard.

Well at least we're getting closer to the Bon period regardless so hearing rumors about the Summer Akamaru makes sense now.

After the author hurts his back, Bastard was moved to Akamaru (or, rather, back when it was a quarterly magazine called "Zoukan Shounen Jump").

It was then moved back to WSJ, but as a once a month series.

Finally, it ended up in Ultra Jump

Which is why I'm saying DGM is going into Bastard mode... They are walking a very similar path if you ask me.

Re: Weekly Shounen Jump [2009] - Discussion & TOC Talk v.2

¿Around which chapters did this hiatus took part in?

Also, a bit offtopic, but... is Finestela a he?.... That I had to clear up.

Checked. HAHAHAHAH.....

D.Gray-man will be back in Akamaru Jump that's due to be out during Bon Festival (August). Cover + Lead CP + 50 Pages.

*Cough* Bastard Mode *Cough*

Thanks for the info. ^^ Let's hope and pray(at least me) that it's not in Bastard Mode even though I didn't read Bastard. Anyway, can't wait to read this new chapter, looks awesome.
Also hope it got more info about the resume in this new chapter.

Re: Weekly Shounen Jump [2009] - Discussion & TOC Talk v.2

Oh wow, I actually said back in 2007 that I worried DGM would take the Bastard route... granted, that was of going monthly, but, uh, wow. Glad to hear it's kind of returning, though! Maybe post-Akamaru is when we'll see a series cut (if Kuroko performs that badly)?

8 for Toriko is pretty low considering its previous rankings, though...

 

[Onomatopoeia]

Re: Weekly Shounen Jump [2009] - Discussion & TOC Talk v.2

Akaboshi is pretty much dead and Kuroko might go with it though I doubt it. Oh and Sket is in the middle along with Toriko and Mago which is a pretty good middle.

Bleach is out of the top 5 again but it's not like it's in a bad area or that we should even be worried. People are to eager for Bleach's demise and await even the slightest sign that the series could fall.

Re: Weekly Shounen Jump [2009] - Discussion & TOC Talk v.2

Bleach is gonna rise up as soon as the latest chaps are rated.

O happy days. Hopefully soon after this super chapter we get a regular serialization.

 

[Rejuvenation]

Re: Weekly Shounen Jump [2009] - Discussion & TOC Talk v.2

Although it makes you wonder why not just go forth with a regular serialization around that time rather than disrupting the flow with this super chapter. One that apparently is plot intensive at that.

She is probably still recovering from whatever it is that took her down this time, but she doesn't want to just leave her fans with nothing for so long so she worked up this super chapter. That's what I think anyway.

Re: Weekly Shounen Jump [2009] - Discussion & TOC Talk v.2

see as someone who has never liked bastard i've been likening the return of d gray to how Kurohime first started out (in some sorta once in a while side anthology before going to MSJ)

I see what your saying, thanks!

If D. Gray Man, and I'm only speculating, moved to SQ, it would be a phenomenal move. Monthly chapters would be easier on her and she could focus on the more plot oriented arcs shes better at.


Oricon charts are out. Beelzebub debuted at 17, but in a very strong week. It sold 51, 163 copies, a remarkable number for the first volume by a new artist. I'll post the full top 30 later tonight.

Damn, that's pretty good. Anybody know how that compares to Toriko's first volume sells?
