True but you could make the case Naruto is number two. While it's the cover series it doesn't have color and number two is the only reasonable spot for Naruto if it's not number one.
Yeah, true thing. Nevertheless was it Hoopmen that appeared wrongly in his list. But you sure got a point.


I'd like to know if Bakuman would have been higher than Bleach without its CP...

thanks anyway mr.prince - didn't think about hoop not being ranked because it's still too new (beelze too I guess, but that's further down). that and I don't care for sports series <.<'

I don't get Naruto getting the cover over a surging Bakuman and an anniversary-celebrating Mago...but whatever, this always happens in modern Jump. Otherwise, I like Neuro's resurgence with it's end pretty much certain...and sort of feel screwed up with how ES21 has been floundering.

Does anyone know whether or not Neuro will definitely end before the next round of cuts?

Other then ending in 2009 there's been no official word on Neuro, but fans could answer that bette then I.

Something is off about Bakuman losing it's cover. It's a popular series by a 20 year veteran of the magazine. Maybe Obata missed the deadline for the cover art and Kishi steped in at the last minute.

Don't forget that 2009 is Naruto's 10th anniversary year and judging from the spoiler pics, this chapter has 'special' content for the fanbase. No clue how much a certain story event influences the choices for covers and color pages, though - anyone who knows more about this matter?

doesn't One Piece always get a cover at the beginning/end/transition of arcs?

Not sure if it got one when they started the Rescue Ace saga, but I recall there being one when Lucci got defeated (possibly Moria too?)

I fixed it. Hey, I have a great business idea. Let's promote the series that every single person in the entire world knows about instead of the series' we are trying to make popular.

Are you sure about this?

Didn't Bakuman steal a cover from ES21 not too long ago? No one complained about that ;). I honestly could care less about who gets the cover. I just find it odd Naruto got the cover and doesn't have color pages, oh well.

I know it's Naruto's anniversary but usually Naruto gets a cover when it gets a color page. All of the wild stuff during OP's 10th year and KochiKame's 30th were cover and color at the same time. This is just Shueisha paranoia.

Hard to say, to be honest.

It's definitely going there, uhm, I would even say it's rushing a bit too much at the moment but there are still enough open ties to easily stretch it another 2-3 years if Kishi wanted too. On the other hand, when he keeps that current pacing up, he could even finish it this year >.>

I could picture a color page for next week since...
...the *spoilerspoiler* happens at the end of this chapter. It would make sense to start the next one with some colored fanservice.

Maybe the set was planned but they switched places for the covers because Obata wasn't in time? Intern stuff, we'll never fully understand *shrugs*

Not like Bleach hasn't gotten enough colour pages, though. >_>

Yeah, colour pages for next week are Bleach and Reborn, so...

i ussually don't agree with bleach's CP, but after checking out the chapter i think it worth the CP cuz of the beginning of the hollowfi-something...
i used to love amano's coloring style, but how did it come to something like today :XD
