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

Does a character poll always happen on a series anniversary or can it happen anytime, and does it always happen every year or can the author decided not to have a poll at that year?

I would have been satisfied if Medaka and Toriko could have switched with Inumaru and Kuroko. Close but not close enough. =/

It usually can happen any time but it just is done around anniversaries due to probably how easy it is to do it then.

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

I like Akaboshi, i think it is too soon to judge it >.< anyway isn't the ToC list is from 8 weeks ago vote? Hmm then thats mean Akaboshi was voted at chap2 (low ranking) and probably will stay low untill the first arc start.

Personally i can stomach Akaboshi better then Mago (recently just start to read) probably because Mago earlier scans are kind of bad. So i hope Akaboshi can last a while.

It's very rare for a series to be first or second from the bottom from chapter 1 on then rise to a respectable position quick enough to avoid cancellation. Assume that Akaboshi has been rejected by Japanese fandom, will not recover, and will end between chapter 15 and 20. I've never seen anything preform this badly, have no buffer, and survive.

I don't think I've ever seen anything fall down so quickly and then become successful, but P2 did drop about as quickly and then managed to last for a whole year. So there is a possibility that Akaboshi could last somewhat longer, although it would probably require something else bombing worse or an established series coming to an end.

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

Kaiten's right here, there's really nothing special about Akaboshi separating it from the dozens of other series that've bombed this early on in the running.

Pretty much every time a new series that gets any semblance of a fandom here is failing, a few people will say that it's getting better and could pick up at any time. But outside of VERY rare exceptions it never happens.

HOLY SHIT! Mago is so high! Can this raise in TOC result in increasing sales?

Bleach ended up rising to the top 5 again. It is enjoyable to see it knocked off by better series though.

Gintama switches with Bakuman into the top 5 again although the lower end of it.

Reborn is #4 and Mago still flying high at #3. If this isn't a sign the mangaka should stop paying so much attention to Rikuo's little friends I don't know what is. >.>

Beelzebub outside of the top 5 with Psyren right after is good with me.

Sket is a bit lower and damn you Kuroko, get back in the bottom next to Akaboshi.

Of course Mago so high is probably the greatest thing about this whole ToC :D

Also, I'm glad Kagijin is higher than Ane Doki, even though they aren't ranked yet, because I think its a better series so far.

And what is the name of the one-shot?

Wow go Mago.

I think Reborn and Toriko are the only positions I'd change on this one.

Top five for Mago...not sure what the "little friends" bit is talking about (classmates or yokai?), but it is a good thing to see the series getting this much respect as of late. That, Gintama in top five and OP on top is respectable in my head.
