Mag Talk Weekly Young Jump (2007 - 2021)

[Emery]

As the title says, what day does Young Jump usually come out? (For us, not Japan)

Moved topic to the General Manga section as it's more appropriate here. ^^ ~ WL

Re: What day does Young Jump come out?

Looks like on the 18th and 4th of every month, as it is a bimonthly (I believe?) magazine.

Re: What day does Young Jump come out?

Don't you mean bi-weekly? if it's twice a month...

 

[zindryr]

Re: What day does Young Jump come out?

Bi-weekly would mean two times a week. Bi-monthly means two times a month.

Edit: Apparently it is ambiguous.

Thanks English language, you fucking blow again.

Re: Weekly Young Jump (Seinen Mag by Shueisha)

I read Liar Game and Gantz, and I'd like to start reading Zetman, Real and Sidooh. I fonly I had the money to buy them...

Re: Weekly Young Jump (Seinen Mag by Shueisha)

Not my favorite anthology, not even close, but WYJ has some good series.

Nononono
Sidooh
Real
Zetman
Rozen Maiden Tales (I'm a few chapters behind on it)

I finished reading Elfen Lied long ago.
Usogui too but there has not been any scans in a long time.

Real
Liar Game
Nononono
Zetman

Re: Weekly Young Jump (Seinen Mag by Shueisha)

I don't read the last chapter of this manga (exept for gantz), but I think it's counting :

Liar Game
REAL
Zetman
Gantz

 

[Kaiten]

Re: Weekly Young Jump (Seinen Mag by Shueisha)

What surprises me about WYJ is how few of the current series are licensed. REAL and Gantz are the only I can think of. Even after expanding their Signature line VIZ has clearly favored Shogakukan. Maybe it's to make up for whoring WSJ, dunno

At some point I expect Liar Game and Zetman to be released. Both would be nice additions VIZ Sig. Past that: I don't know. Sports series don't get licensed anymore, so no Nononono. I can't really think of anything else that will take precedent, at least with VIZ, over Shogakukan seinen. Or smaller publishers like Ohta Books and Hakusensha.

Re: Weekly Young Jump (Seinen Mag by Shueisha)

My WYJ list is made up of....

Gantz
Nononono

 

[Xadyu]

Re: Weekly Young Jump (Seinen Mag by Shueisha)

I'm reading:

Liar Game (On-hold, ch.17)
Gantz (On-hold, ch.308)
Kamen Teacher.

Besides these three I haven't read anything besides smaller series (Like Alive! and Hot Milk) and one-shots.

Re: Weekly Young Jump (Seinen Mag by Shueisha)

So i was checking out coverland for nononono raws and they had the finale chapter up. It looks like no x4 was canceled since the wiki has it as ended.

Aw. I liked the little bit I read of it. Sad to see it go like that, unless it was intentional. Guess I've gotta catch up now to find out, huh?

Re: Weekly Young Jump (Seinen Mag by Shueisha)

From what cookie_on_fire said in the Nono thread the ending seems rushed, like it was canceled.

Damn. How long was it, total? It's been around a while, right? I wonder what would make them cancel it...

Re: Weekly Young Jump (Seinen Mag by Shueisha)

Yea so weird the last chapter was like a parody. Seems that the main character was put on a bus.

Re: Weekly Young Jump (Seinen Mag by Shueisha)

Seems odd. I subscribe to Young Jump, Nono no No usually ranks around the lower half but it's not last or anything. It usually ranks around the same range as Kokou no Hito. But then again, the TOCs in YJ are much less effectual than in the really competitive magazines like Jump where being near the bottom means you'll get canceled if you stay there for 10 weeks.

I think what's usually at the top is Gantz (which is always first if it's in the magazine), Kingdom, B Kata H Kei, Shin Salaryman Kintarou, Usogui, Deliver Cinderella, and REAL (When it's in the magazine).

I think Zetman is usually around the middle. Though that one has infrequent serialization, too. So does Rozen Maiden. Captain Tsubasa is in that area, too.
But I don't read most series besides Kokou no Hito and Gantz, and ordering subscriptions online end up not showing up until a week after the street release date, sometimes a few days later.

Hm, so actually quite a few are very recent. I hadn't realized that. I guess it's because Young Jump usually reserves their covers for models rather than stuff about series. With a few exceptions like when a series that was on hiatus comes back.

Re: Weekly Young Jump (Seinen Mag by Shueisha)

Nakayama Atsushi is looking for assistants for his next serialization. I dunno if it's for Young jump or anything like that, but since it's advertised on their site, I think it's safe to assume he's going to be headed here. Perhaps he plans to serialize that one shot from a while back?

http://yj.shueisha.co.jp/assistant/nakayama/

Saitama,
Guys around 30 (Or lower) preferred.
Proficiency in Comic studio preferred.
Be prepared to work 3~4 days a week. (Stay overs possible.)

Anyone here up for it? :-P Lol.
