Re: Weekly Shounen Jump [2009] - Discussion & TOC Talk v.3

I found it weird that akaboshi has been anounced to have it's first tank while Medaka with more chapters has not. Perhaps Medaka is going to be canceled in upcoming isues. I don't know if series that are cancelled so early get tanks but I wouldn't sell volumes of something unpopular.

>.> Medaka Box's tankobon did get announced for next month.

"めだかボックス" is Medaka Box.

anyway that also proves my point they can be waiting for Medaka to finish so they can release everything in one volume.

While akaboshi having it's first volume now will last until they have enough content for 2 volumes

Volumes of series that are around 18-25 pages per chapter usually have an average of 8 chapters each, so Medaka Box and Akaboshi will have already had enough content for two volumes by next week.

Not to mention they sometimes split volumes for canceled series, for whatever reason. Meister had ten chapters... in two volumes.

I read Shinigami and I definitely think it's better than the one-shot. It gave off a slight early Reborn! feel, not surprising considering the mangaka was Akira Amano's assistant from what I heard. And the already great art has improved! Sho Aimoto is definitely one of my favourite artists in Jump right now!

IMHO nothing else will be canceled until issue 52, 1, and 2. Jump has been working on cycles of about eight weeks between new series. Eight weeks from this week would be perfect timing to make room for the new series in issue 1, 2, and 3. If Hunter x Hunter returns next month then one series will be canceled in about three weeks.

IF Hunter x Hunter returns...I guess we can dream

lol Togashi works in mysterious ways. If he doesn't return this fall that would be a full calendar year without a chapter. He's done it before but somehow I doubt his bosses would be happy if it happens again. And yeah, I'd really like some new chapters!

Same here, I was pretty pissed when he didn't return in the spring lol I had pretty much forgotten everything that had happened and had to re-read it more than once.

More than that, there were almost two full years between chapters 260 and 261 (February 2006 to October 2007, a full 20 months). I honestly doubt his bosses would ever do anything against him, given his status as well as the huge sales Hunter x Hunter pulls. Hell, he could probably publish a chapter of the characters talking about how great Magazine and Sunday are.

I do really hope that we get some new chapters of it soon, though... He should have had enough time to beat Dragon Quest IX by now.

Re: Weekly Shounen Jump [2009] - Discussion & TOC Talk v.3

At this point I'm very apathetic towards Hunter x Hunter. If Togashi doesn't give a damn about the fans I see no reason to give a damn about him.

I think I have most of the English volumes of the series come to think of it yet I feel nothing when I look at them and see that they might not be completed. Great series getting jerked around by a lazy mangaka.

Ah, I'll have to keep a reminder to place my order for both Medaka and Toriko that month. ^____^

I'm actually interested to see how both of them do sales wise.

YAY! Bleach vol.41 comes out next month, I cant wait. I bet the cover will have Super! Hollow Ichigo xD.

Probably is but considering how many Ichigo covers we have had, I rather it be Hallibel.

As for releases, usually after the fall releases, there aren't any new series until we get to the beginning of the next "year cycle". So it isn't too ridiculous to predict that there will be no changes at this point until we get to the beginning of the 2010 cycle...unless Togashi decides to return.

Re: Weekly Shounen Jump [2009] - Discussion & TOC Talk v.3

I've been wondering... why hasn't there been a Psyren vomic yet? Or a Sket or Mago vomic seeing as they've both had drama CDs announced? Inuyashi has one, which is pretty weird seeing as it sells less than those three (not sure about Psyren though).

In 40 volumes we've only had 2, 3 if you count the inner hollow. But I see what you mean, everyone else only had one cover.

Mind my asking, but what's a vomic? (voice comic?)

Re: Weekly Shounen Jump [2009] - Discussion & TOC Talk v.3

Yep. A vomic is just as you said, a voice comic. The word reminds of vomit though...

I wouldnt mind having Hallibel on the cover either.

Re: Weekly Shounen Jump [2009] - Discussion & TOC Talk v.3

I don't know if this is correct, but from what i know, usually for a series before it get an anime, it's gets either a vomic or a drama CD, not both. The hit from beginning like Toriko or Beelze usually get vomic, while late bloomer like Mago or Sket get drama CD.
Although a series that has vomic can still get a drama CD after the anime air. For the late bloomer, drama CD is like a promotion. Psyren is not popular enough to warrant a vomic or drama CD

Basically our count of multiples are:
-Ichigo: 2 (new Shinigami, Bankai...possibly 3 if you count the Hollow, 4 with Zangetsu which is an aspect of him)
-Orihime: 2 (intro, "departure")
-Shinji: 2 (modern, TBTP)
-Ulquiorra: 2 (regular, released)
-Grimmjow: 2 (regular, released)

Considering how few characters legitimately have a right to more than one cover and how many Ichigo has had, I sort of hope we get someone else.

That's exactly why they should make one. Psyren's popularity could use a boost.
