Mag Talk Weekly Shounen Jump [2009] - Discussion & TOC Talk

I guess Viz finally decided to license some new series. News has been announced that Viz licensed Neuro, Mx0, Sket Dance and surprisingly P2. These volume covers were also leaked as well. Very interesting piece of news.

Spoiler

(looks at calendar) Call me back on April 2nd and we'll see where it stands then.

....I'd be more excited if those didn't look like elaborate April fools covers. Viz normally erases any Japanese on the logos of their series....so I doubt they'd start leaving them now.

Gonna wait till April 2nd to comment for real on this.

 

[SSJWill4]

Sigh, it's still March 31st here, so I was fooled. Oh well. Hopefully those series do get licensed in the future. That would be awesome. Now here's to the hope that someone doesn't post a fake ToC too. -_-

 

[Kaiten]

Source please XD

 

[fxu]

I know it's fake because there's no Psyren there.

:]

 

[Rejuvenation]

Screw this stupid day, Viz needs to license those series for real anyway.

I've been preparing for April Fools man. You think this weaksauce joke is going to catch me?

...It sucks that Mx0 and Neuro have to be among them.

 

[Rock-a-Dillo]

Fans just want it to end. I know the ending is going to make me facepalm. The thought of Japan beating America is just not right...

Also, the thing that made Eyeshield's games interesting was it's characters. When they are not fighting an interesting team, the game sucks. This is why the Teikoku game sucked. Their team was so bland. This is also why the later Seibu game was one of my favorites. They just need to end it, before they make it anymore obvious they ran out of ideas...

You can only do so much with football.

hmm weren't Japan is actually the number 1 team of amefuto or something??

 

[Koen]

April Fool's day or not, I don't buy english manga and mx0 is almost finished in french releases

Anyway if those are really released - which I highly doubt - then you are lucky for having sket dance released

 

[Maxy Barnard]

I completely believe in this. P2 and Mx0 have long been candidates for serialisation as far as i'm concerned

Not true. Black cat has Katakana on it's covers.

 

[◆ T.D.A ◆]

Anyone want to see the WSJ cover? though its basically stolen from the naruto spoilers:

I rephrase then. They RARELY have any Japanese on their covers.

But nice try though lol.

Hmm...so, does this make Beezlebub a hit? If it is, I'm surprised but delighted from what I've heard. Weirdly high Reborn rank too...but somehow that may have been at a certain point...

 

[Mr. Prince]

Yeah Beelze seems to appeal to a lot of people...would be nice if it could establish to some point!

Hmm...list lacks Gintama. Since no one stated concretely there'd be a break I think Mei must have forgotten about it.

Either way, this is a very odd TOC.

 

[Kaiten]

Thanks Mr. Prince!

While it isn't ranked for another two weeks (one extra due to next weeks color), it would appear that Beelzebub is going to be a big hit. To be placed in the top 5 two straight weeks by the editors is a great sign! The news is equally bad for Hoop Men; putting it at the edge of the bottom five so close to it's proper ranking isn't pretty.

If my math is right, Psyren and Kuroko both made the top five this week. Great week for Sket too! If only Mago could have joined them.

 

[[Cross]]

I might call shenanagins since it's still April 1st for me, but who knows. Good news overall, really abnormal reborn ranking.
