Great changes. Great chapter 1

Give him a hot (male) character and done.

Kawaguchi should just FUCK OFF to whomever the author is getting their advice from before writing anything again.

>>279690759 (OP)
I have question. Why are so many these new manga's in jump so unbelievably boring? Can no write any interesting stories anymore? Why do all these character design look so uninteresting?

>>279691217
5 YEARS
and it's somehow the only thing he did right
better just team up with a writer.
even naroushit ones can write better entertaining garbage

>>279691409
It seems the chapter was halfway done, missing the inking and fixing.
He had an extra week so hopefully he delivers on enten vs tobimune.

>>279691166
I wonder if its all just an editor diff

>>279691506
Or maybe he's just a shit writer and jump wanted to serialize him again since TES is ending just in case.

HNNNNNNNNNG!

I'm tired of hiding. I fucking love exorcist manga

To be fair, Shokugeki is a bit too old now. Mushoku is unfortunately the more popular one in recent times

Read her manga.

>>279691688
did a u slayer appeared yet

>fuse the best charater of 2 sports series
I already like him

>>279691166
Why it always people like you seething on Kawaguchi, get a grip.

>>279690995

I mean the coach character isn't even introduced yet. It could still be a woman. Though with the oddball team premise I think it'll be very different compared to the one-shot character.

>>279691524
something about the composition is just wrong
should have Iori be right in the middle with the boys fighting farther in the background or Iori in the bottom right corner with the boys fighting in the left-middle and again a distance away

>>279691656
>Shokugeki is a bit too old now.
Sh- shut up!

>>279691580
Kishimoto is kind of a shit writer too and has first editor managed to make him draw Naruto.

>>279691706
From the start, 2 of the band members have had boyfriends and mc oogles at boys alot.

The Phantom Seer boys learned their lesson. The fuck is Kawaguchi doing? He's just repeating all his mistakes from red Hood and that was 5yrs ago

>>279685465
If you sat down and read you'll realize that's it's actually killing nagireo with no survivors

>>279690838
So it's Dark Gathering except the target audience is gooners

>mc oogles at boys alot.
is she staring at their cocks though?
that's important, otherwise its not official

>>279691751
Sometimes you gotta wonder what's going on in Kawaguchi's mind
>My manga red Hood was axed really early. I wonder what I did wrong
>Maybe the people back then didn't appreciate my muscle girls. When I go back, I'll give it another go with the next generation. And maybe when the magazine's standards are lower, that'll work too

>>279691776
But their fanbase loves this kind of retarded melodrama, you should check what those fujos say in nipland.

>>279691808
>>279691751
Felt like he didn't want Red Hood to die and gave it another go but forgot to fix what made it got axed so early

>>279691751
>>279691808
Your baits lose any believability if you keep repeating the same thing while things change. Check the new chapter

>>279691749
>2 of the band members have had boyfriends
um actually it was only ayame

>>279691835
Nips that aren't nagireo fujos are saying
>ENOUGH WITH YOUR FUCKING HUSBANDO GO BACK TO THE MAIN PLOT

>>279691883
Sure. Tell me more about this "potential" like you retards did with Red Hood

>>279691897
Abd we go back to
>current nagireo arc exists purely to milk some more money
It's not sinking its fanbase because it's par if the course as much as the completely retarded kaiser backstory was for his fans.

>>279691883
NTA where is the bait?
The training arc is over but the cracks are already there.

Meaning nagireo, that's just drama loving fujos.

>>279691998
I can see them covering the twins relationship tension for the first 3 ch.

Otr will get axed.
Kiyoshi will get axed.
Exorcist will get axed.
Nice Prison will get axed.
Relay race will get axed.
Shinobi will live.
Himaten will live.
Baseball will live.
Ping pong will live.

>>279690995
I don't know why people had so many problems with a female coach. Glasses in Haikyuu was the coach with the other girl as standard support

>>279692136
nue and kill blue axed

>>279692216
did you even read haikyu or are you retarded? the glasses was the manager she hardly even spoke at all
the coach was the convenience store shop guy and before that it was the teacher guy

>>279692216
glasses girl was the main manager.
girl coach would work if they are manly/very tomboyish.
or just go full Kataoka from DnA and get done with it.

>publishing a baseball mango while Jump+ is publishing Battery and doing very well
I know baseball is the emergency button in spokon but that's kinda nasty, plus there's also Dia and Dorahachi on Kodansha and Mix on Shogakukan it's going to end up buried.
>>279691967
Volume 34+the recent Nagi developments have been going for over 3 months and are being very, very badly received. Kaiser's backstory wasn't and boosted his popularity, keep in mind that this isn't 2022 anymore and Nagi's popularity has fallen pretty hard so all the readers perceive is bias from the author over the MC and the survivors of NEL, the nagireo fujos are a very loud minority.

>>279692216
I don´t want whores in my sports, bro

>>279691524
It's peak.

Thanks to embers for completing this edit.

>>279692371
>Kaiser's backstory wasn't and boosted his popularity
The point is, that it's the same kind of trashy writing.
And it boosted his popularity, with fujos.
>Nagi's popularity has fallen pretty hard so all the readers perceive is bias from the author over the MC and the survivors of NEL, the nagireo fujos are a very loud minority.
They keep placing stupidly high in polls and buying their merch so he can't care less.
And the original point is that his editor was doing his job, which he is by squeezing money out of them, regardless of the trash quality of the manga ever since this whole big ass arc started.

so, who got axed for baseball?

>>279692371
If you couldn't use anything in jump+ WSJ wouldn't be able to publish a single manga because it's a huge idea dumpster.

Tick tock kiyoshit

>>279692576

That's a whole extra round before these four new series can get axed too.

This guy is just too lucky damn it!

>>279690995
Goated fucking editor, I wonder who it is

Voted, see ya next week.

Yeah, I'm thinking Harukaze Mound is going to stay. Also Himaten is great this week.

Harukaze was moving like a one-shot (I didn't read the one-shot version), but I guess that's needed to live. Hope it doesn't bite them in the ass.

I think we should support Nice Prison, what do you think?

>>279693386
It'll die with Otr as fodder for the new batch

Writing changed for the better. But the art is much weaker. Top is old bottom is new

>>279693413
Otr kinda safe for now, Nips like it so far
NICE PRISON is doomed tho

>>279693413
There's literally nothing else to axe and they won't ever axe kiyoshit.
Shinobi and hima are (slowly) doing better.
Could always murder kill blue for jobbing to both.

>oneshot vs serialization
Well, yeah, they do understand you need to tone done the effort put to keep up with the weekly grind.
Better start at the level you want to keep than immediately switch to something worse after a couple chapters.

You know what, Syd deserved that axe.
22i is such a hack.

I still can't shake off my feeling that UEK is wrapping up after the black parade arc. I mean sure Usui says he's hoping to stay for another year, but he's been constantly wrapping up character arcs. Yuda/Sakaki is wrapping up soon, Asuta Roth/Kiyoshi would be the next. I wonder if what he meant by "another year" is prolonging the Asuta Roth vs Kiyoshi battle for 50 more chapters. Is that even possible?

Also, does anyone also think that Sakaki's ability is basically just Kite's nen from Hunter x Hunter?

>>279693503
used condom storage!

>>279690759 (OP)
I went to read the oneshot
The oneshot is actually better in term of writing while the manga is heading for the destruction road with cliche team building and the lack of experience adults, I guess this is the difference when you can write what you want vs when a retarded WSJ editor forced you to change everything

>>279691524
Yeah this Cover is legit dogshit, why give him break weeks if he can't even make Cover anymore

>>279691688
I am reading it. I've also been dumping GMR chapters for the past two months (besides Himaten).

>>279693428
if they make it too good then readers will complain once they start the grind.
it's better to aim for a consistent style.

>>279693784
I've heard that Shinohara also hates doing color pages (according to 5ch), are there any well known authors who hate doing it? I wonder if that's the reason why the EiC gave so many color pages to artist who loves doing it like Usazaki and Usui.

The artist is successful and that's all that matters, the guy with the overinflated ego can fuck off.

>>279694199
you meant writer?

>>279694210
No, the artist.
He made a shitton of money with porn.

>>279690995
If anything, it'll flop harder cause nips liked the oneshot.
The younger one was never the cocky type that is rude to his brother, I like him in the oneshot better cause he has more expressions, they changed him into the cold face pitcher type.
>More critical of himself
Literal brainless shonen dialogues for insecure self-insert teens
It's not gonna work on gen Z or Alpha

The female coach is a high school coach so there's still time for her to appear, any serious highschool baseball team will need a coach anyway, if this manga trying to be a bunch of kids playing on their own, tough luck, don't see it survive pass 30 chapters

You now remember they are a pack as far as fujos are concerned.
And despite all the hype, kaiser was sandwiched between them.
It is what it is, they are still really popular wityh their fanbase that is lapping this garbage up (exact same quality as the rest of the arc except if focuses on characters only their fujos care about)

>>279693575
Have people really not read older manga where every arc was written like the last one?

>>279692136
Kiyoshi will live due to Oda's nepotism while Nice Prison will be sacrificed to keep roboco going for 50 chapters more maybe even more imagine

>and you see this is a genius tactic

>>279695467
It's the Syd coper baiting with Kiyoshi this time, just ignore him

>>279695526
>>and you see this is a genius tactic
Will it make more money? Yes.
Will Blue lock readers stop buying it considering the overall quality of the manga as of the past couple years? No, because they don't give a shit
It's simple, really.

>>279695526
I'm still surprised that not only is Kiyoshi dodging the axe but it's actively survived

>Kiyoshi has the best choreography of Jump
GRIMMM

>>279691524
is this some kimetsu knockoff

>>279695584
The next axe round is the last chance for Kiyoshi to get axed
If 3/4 sell 9k or less then Kiyoshi is living until anime
Hell, even 2/4 is enough, because of Nice Flopsion

>>279690838
>MC is a bishie mountain boy that meets an older woman and is introduced to her world
This is Ichi but with exorcists instead of witches, and probably for straight men instead of women/homos judging by that girl's cleavage. It will be fun to shitpost with it to rile up Ichifags (and Nuefags, since this manga is a direct competitor).
That aside, while the big titty woman will attract male readers, if the male MC is too much of a pushover or a cunt (and he already has a punchable face in that preview) the manga will flop hard.

>>279695689
He has that chink prettyboy design and clothes that' are currently popular.

>>279695689
>uses the bitch to fight
its direct competition is Nue

>>279695582
Nigga they just axed the spin off because the sales dropped hard since people stopped reading it after Nagi became was retcon into REOREOREOREOREOREOREO and stopped focusing on the football

>>279695665
I think its better than demon slayer.

ngl the meta narrative of Nagi being popular while also a flop is kino

No, I'd argue that Kiyoshi is safe now but could be axed in January when it starts losing cover protection and the magazine runs out of cushions.
>>279695617
Choreography is meh but impact shots are good.

>>279695915
Okay, tell me which Kiyoshi's page do you think is better than both Shinobi and Sakamoto combined. Because the one you posted ain't it.

I'll start with Kill Blue
It's like a corpse that was dragged enough that it's barely there

>>279691688
I like it a lot, but it’s kind of annoying how much time the manga spends on flashbacks. There has to be a more organic way to explore these characters than this.

Why is Disneybachi so boring and stake-less?

>>279696223
If I were Editor in Chief of Weekly Shonen Jump and had to axe one of these three series based solely on volume sales data, the clear candidate would be: Ultimate Exorcist Kiyoshi

Here's why:
>Sales are significantly lower than the other two. Even when including extended totals (first week + later weeks), its volumes peak around 10,000–11,000 total.
>The first week sales are especially weak: 4,839 (vol 1), 2,241 (vol 2), and 5,629 (vol 3), indicating limited initial interest and low momentum.
>There's no consistent upward trend—vol. 2 drops in first-week numbers despite the total slightly improving, and vol. 3 barely recovers in its first-week figures.
>Even after additional weeks, the total sales max out around 10–11k, which still lags behind its competitors' initial week sales.

Compare with the others:
Shinobi Undercover
>Volumes sell between 10.5k–12k in less than 10 days.
>A little more volatile, but overall: Holding steady in the 11k–12k range in the first week
>Slight dip from vol. 2 to 3, but nothing alarming
>Still showing healthy sales per day (vol. 3: 11,823 in 5 days ~2,365/day)
It’s not a breakout hit, but it’s solid and consistent, which is usually enough to survive at this stage.

Hima-ten!
>Has the strongest single-volume performance (vol. 3 with 13,320 in 10 days).
>Averaging better than the others and seems to have at least some staying power.
>At first glance, vol. 4 seems like a dip—but when we break it down:
>Vol. 3: 13,320 in 10 days ~1,332 copies/day
>Vol. 4: 11,378 in 5 days ~2,275 copies/day
>This is actually a strong jump in daily sales velocity, showing:
>Rising reader engagement
>Momentum that's still building
So rather than declining, Hima-ten! is heating up.

Conclusion:
If I could only cut one, it would be Ultimate Exorcist Kiyoshi, due to consistently low sales and weak initial demand. Shinobi Undercover and Hima-ten! still show potential and are worth giving more time to build an audience.

Tsukasa Houjou, Hideaki Sorachi, Kei Kamiki, Masakazu Katsura, Riku Sanjo, Shuuichi Asou and Koyoharu Gotouge.
Yoshifumi Tozuka, Atsushi Nakamura and Mitsutoshi Shimabukuro could probably do really great Shounens in other magazines, same with Toshiaki Iwashiro but he's MIA.
I almost want to say Naoshi Komi, Hajime Koumoto, Gege Akutami, Kouhei Horikoshi, Yoshio Sawai and Tomohiro Hasegawa would fare off well trying to do a new Shounen Manga as long as they aren't sequels to their previous works but I'm unsure.
Yoshihiko Hayashida could probably do a good Seinen but I doubt he could survive doing Shounen in any non-digital magazine.

On another note how does Sunday gets so many great mangaka? They're easily the best Shounen magazine right now, which baffles me because multiple times it has been stated by authors that it's the worst editorial a mangaka can work on, with miserable working conditions and with the head editors constantly doing a bunch of extremely retarded decisions like the whole "50 new Manga" deal.

>>279700764
they dont overwork them for Color pages and use gravure instead for one

>>279699223
Why is Chihiro brown

>>279700800
But authors get generally less breaks there, Frieren is an exception. But in general there's just so many controversies surrounding Sunday compared to any other publisher
>Nanatsu no Taizai's author Nakaba Suzuki who have worked on Jump, Magazine and Sunday cited Sunday to be the worst out of the three in terms of working conditions
>Sexy Tanaka-Sean's author's Hinako Ashihara committed suicide as a statement against Sunday
>Sunday's editorial lost manuscripts of Gash Bell's author Makoto Raiku twice, which resulted in him suing the publisher
>The previous Sunday's head editor decided to release 50 new Manga to the magazine to celebrate its 50th anniversary, which resulted in them needing to cancel 50 Manga to do that, some of them being popular and stable like Magi. Dagashi Kashi was the only successful Manga out of the new 50 which resulted in the publisher having a massive debt and needing to change head editors
>Kimi was milked to the point the Manga barely resembled what it once was, Frieren will most likely follow suit
Sunday really seem like shit hole to work in, that's why it's legitimately surprising that they're currently the best Weekly Shounen magazine in terms of quality, while either Square Enix's Gangan Joker is probably the best Shounen magazine overall because they managed to retain most of their legendary editors from their Enix days and Shueisha's Young Jump is probably the best Seinen magazine because of the whole "let's remove every competent WSJ editor and transfer them to other magazines without properly training a new generation" deal which is why Shueisha is still the best manga editorial overall but WSJ is currently a shadow of its former self.

kek

>>279701202
Yeah, I cannot think of any big controversy with other Manga Publishers and editorials other than that Korean editor from Magazine that worked on Attack on Titan, Nanatsu no Taizai and Quintuplets, who would vomit on the manuscripts of Attack on Titan, beat up the author and would go on to kill his wife after getting fired. It sucks that he was such a psycho because clearly he was a hood editor since the 3 Manga he was working on became worse after his departure.
I assume that there just some talented Sunday mangaka that are friends of the editors which is why they decided to stay there and get to still make some good Manga.

>>279701295
That makes sense
I was about to say commiting suicide as a statement against Sunday should've tanked the publisher

>>279701337
Huh, Ichi looks really cute here, where was this illustration from

>>279701295
Wasn't the whole deal with Hinako Ashihara that Sunday greenlited a live-action adaptation without consulting her which resulted in a bunch of shitty changes to the story, then after complaining she was allowed to writer the last two episodes but proceeded to commit suicide right after because she felt like the live-action adaptation's staff and the editorial had disrespected her? I don't remember any twitter harassments

It was both what you said and what this anon said >>279701295
She was dissatisfied with the live-action and complained about it, but she was then harassed online for complaining about it, so she decided to commit suicide.
But it wasn't any kind of statement against Sunday it was just depression, although granted her blog post implied that the miscommunication that resulted in the live-action being shit was fault of a Sunday editor: https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2024-06-02/ntv-reveals-results-of-investigation-into-sexy-tanaka-san-live-action-series-after-hinako-ashihara-/.211410

The next new manga looks interesting, I hope it does well.

>>279701791
Obviously Kiyoshi, it isn't going to end in this batch but it has already wrapped up a lot of plot points and character arcs. It will be like Undead Unluck, Magu-chan and Toriko where the finale is rushed but managed to close most of its story in a satisfying manner at least.
Himaten is the worst out of these though. Ichi the Witch is pretty much impossible it gets axed and it's pretty much Jump's second biggest Manga after One Piece at this point. It at least looks like Kagurabachi will get its groove back after how shit the Manga became with the blind guy introduction, so it will probably go back to its initial massive genuine popularity eventually.

>>279701543
Excuse me. I'm a foreign student from Germany. Where can I buy the erotic illustrations of this girl?

>>279701986
No, Himaten.

>>279702042
It's honestly weird that it genuinely seems that Kiyoshi won't die until the next batch despite wrapping up almost every major plot point. It really feels that just like Kill Blue they told the author that the Manga would die so they should wrap it up but then worse newer Manga came out so they ended up surviving.
Except that Kill Blue is a massive piece of shit that even Saito seems to not enjoy yet somehow it keeps surviving.

This is supposed to be an emotional moment
But the art is so fucking bad

>>279701791
>Who's next?
Ichi and Kiyoshi have more than one WSJ cover, but Kiyoshi will be the only one without a Taiwanese co-sign starting next week. Unless most of the new batch is a flop, it's Kiyoshi.

>>279702274
KB needs to die

>>279702217
The artwork would be great but is being held back by the proportions of the characters. It's most obvious that the faces are fucked up but it's with all of the body which you can see in the panel with the character running away. Arms too short, hands and feet too small. (Dress thing obscures too much for me to observe)

The hair is mostly fine, could use a little touch up but for the most part it's okay.

>>279702305
It really needs and it probably would have if we hadn't gotten Hakutaku. I'm really impressed by how long has Kill Blue managed to survive or even how long his previous manga Robot x Laserbeam managed to survive. Kill Blue is easily the worst Manga WSJ has right now.

You often claim that Kiyoshi is only surviving cancellation because of Oda's protection. Fine. But if that's the case, why was Noah's Notes, created by another of Oda's former assistants, Haruto Ikezawa, axed at chapter 23?

>>279701343

>>279702712
Kiyoshi isn't surviving due to Oda, it's closer to an Undead Unluck situation where some editors really like the manga because they bring the "classic shonen feel" so they give it some protection.
Author recommendations hardly mean anything, look at a manga like Sachiroku. Noah's Notes stopped ranking well after its first volume due to the templars and how retarded the main girl was. Also although it didn't affect its popularity this manga really needed a consultant like Dr. Stone, Akane-banashi or Shokugeki no Soma.

>>279703019
No, just Hajime Isayama. Also that anon is slightly exaggerating he only punched Isayama once while drunk.

Why does every colored character in KGB is so fucking pale? They have seen ghost or sum.

Seems like an easy enough fix

>>279703181
It's mostly a shitposter replying to himself. Most of the discussions of WSJ manga consists of members of a discord group replying to themselves like the Higurashi threads. It's why most of the shitposting on this general is the same unfunny shit over and over again or why almost every thread of the Witch Watch anime is some guy constantly shitposting saying that the Anime is actually gay. Basically just a bunch of zoomers that don't actually like Anime/Manga and want the most popular Manga publisher to be indiscussable in the west.

Don't get mad at me, blame Takeru for writing Tafuku to be such a sick freak.

Assuming sales remain the same, how likely is it that Himaten and Shinobi will get axed before Kiyoshi?

>>279703734
there's no lvl, no bestiary, no rpg elements, no equipment mecanics, what makes it like dragon quest?

Pretty unlikely since Kiyoshi's story is already setting up to wrap up, just like it happened with Undead Unluck. Unless the author manages to make such a massive change of status quo that somehow allows the Manga to last longer it doesn't seem like Kiyoshi will survive the next batch.

>>279704682
>Kiyoshi's story is already setting up to wrap up
They said the same thing about Kill Blue.

>>279704682
Just bring a bigger demon king

>NTR/Rape bait in the latest Blue Box chapter
Why though?

>>279704780
Baiting Terasu Mc for the free doujin boost after seeing how successful Himaten is.

>>279704699
It was, it suddenly resolved a bunch of things, the manga was selling horribly, on an objective level it was the worst manga in the magazine until Hakutaku came around and it was seemingly.
With Kiyoshi the enemies are counted like Drive's Roidmudes or Fabricant 100's Fabricants. It also resolved a bunch of major character arcs in a somewhat satisfying manner, so unless they introduce a new kind of enemy and new characters to the cast I really don't see how can they extend Kiyoshi. With Kill Blue they mostly drastically sped up the plot but still there were many character arcs that hadn't been resolved.

>>279704823
Where is this claim that he submitted a manuscript to WSJ from?

>Terasu
No need for Terasu when it's already a favorite of さとう枕.

Let it die, akaneschizo.

nice prison is funny again this week

>>279707487
Yeah the manga was an Ichigoki situation where the first two chapters were really unfunny then from chapter 3 onward the manga are consistently really hilarious
Shame that it will most likely be axed just like Ichigoki

>>279707487
It's a shitpost, the manga.

>>279705746
It didn't. We don't care, it's funny that anti Himaten always brought up NTR.

>>279691524
Looks awful

>>279697311
KWAB, the manga sales can already go down from now

>>279707853
it already started declining, now it will be sharper with such an ass cover

Shinobi completely destroyed Kiyoshi in terms of writing, main character, comedy, romance, action and even sales. No wonder elementary school kids prefer Shinobi over Kiyoshi.

otr thread is dead :D

STOP MAKING FUN OF THE COVER!! IT MAKES ME WANT TO KILL MYSELF!

Shoseki is out

Rairairai is above Ichi

yo fotms shitters
how are you this week?

>>279708472
To be fair the cover is really ass, like i think Kiyoshi got a better one this month

>>279708621
Kiyoshit does have a good cover actually

Baseball had a way better first chapter than Embers.
I really hope Jump finally finds its next big spokon with this sports batch.

>>279708736
Really? Kiyoshi?

>>279708772
it debutted on an issue without OP and KGB so a lot less people will see the first chapter compared to the rest of the batch

>new baseball manga debuts
>Shohei goes 3 for 3 (all singles) and will do some pitching for a couple of innings tomorrow (likely a bullpen game)

This is a conspiracy, I tell you

>>279708818

Is hiring assistants so expensive now that even cover is half assed?

Sakamotobros.... Ichifags.... Why weren't we the face of the promotion....?

>>279709117
Either everyone in jump is rich or it's only a skill issue

>>279709117
the mangaka has to pay the assistant from their salary

>>279709140
Not really promotion just announcing the return of both series in the next issue due to their absence but i just realize that bachifags are newfags.

>>279690759 (OP)
Picked up for hopefully future onsen chapters

>>279709117
He is just ass, no reasons hokazono can't even do a cover after all his hiatus and zero color page.

>>279709183
>announcing the return
>it's not announcing their return
>it's, in fact, purely talking about the ticket rally and other merch

Them not announcing the anime is directly hurting hokazono
We know it's happening, but until they announce it all merch has to be manga designs when they could save him the trouble and health risks by putting out anime designs and having literal teams work on the merch vs 1 guy already working on a weekly serialization

>>279709215
It's also declining hard in sales, they should at least announce the anime with a poster or something then showing anything later

>>279697902
If you can tolerate the gag at the start then you will be rewarded with a touching story about trauma in sport later, I dislike it at first but now it just feels precious

>>279698143
I feel sick in the stomach when reading that manga but can't stop pressing the next button

>>279709215
As i said, the author having no design ideas is a skill issues, every author in jump can but not him, why is that

>>279709259
It's a good depiction of that kind of thing.

>>279709215

They cannot announce an anime for KGB before announcing it for akanebanashilled first. It's 160+ chapters already.

>>279690893

They have only two now.

Harukaze is pretty good

>>279709285
>>279709305
JJK got announced at chapter 85 and KGB isnt doing that good
CSM got announced at chapter 97 and ended on that issue
MHA is not even worth bringing up since nothing will blow up like that anymore

>>279709586
Ruri did. But the author died.

>>279690759 (OP)
Really bland first chapter. Cast feels like a bunch of generic tropes. Do kinda feel like starting a baseball manga tho. Is Touch any good?

>>279709603
For baseball itself? No.

>>279709503
"Going in order" has literally never stopped them before

>>279709601
If it went straight to 2 weeks and not a 1 year hiatus it could have

>>279709615
Evidently stops them now.

>>279709262
I think he's in an awkward spot where his designs aren't BAD it's just that a lot of his designs are just FINE instead of GREAT. It's mostly an issue with his female characters, he kind of has a boring sense of fashion.

>>279709603
H2 is better. But read Rough instead if youre going into the mitsuru adachi train.

>>279709644
bland designs have never been a problem in shonen

>>279708327
is it actually good? I didn't like the first chapter but I'm willing to give it another shot.

>次世代を担う３作品からクイズが出題

This is how WSJ classifies 2024 existers

>>279691524
Is it just me or does it feel like KGB volumes come out more frequently than other WSJ manga?
Anyways this cover is whatever, I acknowledge that the art, esp the way the characters are drawn, will always remain oneshot chicken-scratch tier, and just enjoy it for the story.

>>279709684
>enjoy it for the story.
lmao

>>279709668
It's the embodiment of average, which for today's Jump's standards means a lot.

>all three will survive because everything else is much worse

>>279691524
What happens next volume? Is it going to be the same colors again?

>>279709720
Three way fight+hakuri in the kamunabi.
It's also the end of OWL so clear skies.

>>279709720
it ends with Samura using Suzaku to rape Hiruhiko
next will probably be a Hakuri cover so it might go back to Vol 6 sales

>>279703221
The last cover was announced with the wrong colors. When the actual manga hit the shelves the colors were better and less desaturated. I think the same thing happened with this cover. Something wonky going on with the files I'm guessing. Even then though it is not my favorite cover. Either Takeru is fucking dying or his cover-designer is doing him dirty; the composition is too busy it ends up confusing and the faces look weird. I kind of hope the bullying gets to Takeru lol, I prefer the characters having varied skin tones.

>>279709754
He should just reuse that panel with the 3 enchanted blades clashing if only for the novelty of having no humans on the cover. But the cover designer probably wouldn't like that. If that wasn't an option then I want Samura solo on the cover.

>>279709763
Depends on how many days it has.
This one has three again for fw so it will probably do the same (probably better because no golden week raping the month)

>>279692459
Where is bottom panel from?

You are replying to him.
You can tell by the purpousefully shit english.

>>279696078
>>279697311
I'd say his art was actually better before but the weekly grind is clearly getting to him and the style has suffered for it either unintentionally or due to him trying to simplify to speed up the process. There's les variation in skin tones now that everyone is so uniformly pale and everyone has the same face now when his faces used to be more unique to each character too. Sadly it's definitely his worst cover.

>>279709972
>now that everyone is so uniformly pale
They generally aren't.
I doubt they even have that skin tone in the actual cover.

>>279710010
It's the schizo

>>279709916
>>279709954
>Brazillian cope already
Anon, it's legit ass lol

>>279710010
Even with the last cover that was debuted with the incorrect colors Chihiro is still paler than he was before. Same as in the color page with him and the Masumi. So it is at least partly intentional.

>>279710044
You can keep samefagging as much as you want schizo

>Brazillian
See?

>>279710065
Do you legit like the cover? lmao

>>279709720
Hakuri is there so we'll get some blue at least.
a white background cover would be a nice change of pace, but its not really Hakuri's volume to warrant one unlike vol 4.
