just watched the first episode of Lord of the Mysteries and holy fuck the levels of production this donghua has are on the level of Kimetsu no Yaiba, feels like watching a highly produced animated movie, I know the japanese hate the chinese because they hate yellow people and worship huwaito piggu but a chinese studio picking up a manga project could work very well, it would be cheaper and it would have Ufotable quality

btw I must have to add, even tho the animation is amazing this Lord of the Mysteries is pure impossible to understand slop, it throws at you a million chinese cultural references that you are supposed to already know what they are in order to understand what is happening and the funniest thing is that everyone in this donghua is european and it happens in an european setting so why is it so full of chinese references? anyway I will keep watching it just for the animation which is that good, like I said, feels like watching a highly produced movie

>>280553648
lord of the mysteries is an isekai tho but the chinese call it transmigration probably because only troons like isekai, I liked the other donghua that got japanese animators mad, the one with the kuraeizi fight it had really good animation and although the story was on the same level as your day to day isekai slop the concept of the story was really good and innovative, the chinese are getting better at making stories, I still feel like chinese animation studios could save japanese manga because they can release high quality animations at a low cost, if they are using AI then it is done exceptionally well and you don't notice it unlike Toei with One Piece where you can clearly tell when they used AI

>>280553216
no way it can get that bad

>>280551144
I think the training arc was just so boring it filtered a ton of people

>>280551638
I know people miss the fanservice but Bird Chiyou is extremely cute. I think the fanservice will probably return in upcoming chapters based on feedback.

>>280554054
I not gonna lie to you, I wasn't aware of that famous author name when he works on cipher academy, after CA end, I started to learned that he used to works on Monogatari before.

>>280554078
Studios already employ third parties from outside Japan. Those are not novel ideas.

>>280554130
>I think the fanservice will probably return in upcoming chapters based on feedback
KDG's plot is extremely focused I'm expecting only one or two "fanservice" chapter(s) in a volume.
It's clearly not a harem manga and leans more into human-immortal romance. I'm feeling its romance is gonna be closer to those old Chinese stories and it'll have to EARN a fanservice chapter.

>>280554130
I honestly think it stupid for them to knee-jerk reaction on training arc which only just 3 chapters and chapter 5 was only actual training and finished on first page of chapter 6. Were they complained and when Demon slayer doing 3 chapters worth of training arc in vol 1? Either way, it was a dumb thing to complain.

>>280554236
but I am saying a whole anime made by a chinese studio, watch Lord of Mysteries, watch its animation, it's style, and tell me you wouldn't want Kagurabachi to look that good

>which only just 3 chapters
3 chapters too long. The training being only 1 chapter doesn't matter when the 2 other chapters are there to supplement the training in itself.
But the actual problem isn't the length, its the fact that the training arc was fucking boring to read, thats why. Full of exposition of shit nobody cares about and heroic vigor is just lame for something they had such lenghty explanation about. The training also ended in such a wet fart.
>Demon slayer doing 3 chapters worth of training arc in vol 1
The whole part with Sabito and Makomo blew everything in Otr away, way more emotional and meaningful plus it connected to the very next villain Tanjiro fight so it more purposeful.

>>280554324
its not just training, retard. kawaguchi suck at everything especially the characters. did you ever read the complaint???
kawaguchi fan still fucking horrible at seeing reality. its always blaming others, never their overlord. no wonder kawaguchi, who full on himself never improve or change since red hood.

>>280554594
>He thinks men read Frieren
You know all the fanservice are anime originals so the manga is just a plain romance story with fight choreography worse than Nue

>>280554823
Honestly I expect no fanservices till chapter 8 or 9 when the author gets the feedback data from readers

>>280554850
>>He thinks men read Frieren
certainly more than jjk mha or whatever fujoshits in current nu-wsj.

>>280554324
the issue is bad writing. all the training accomplished was making the protagonist do what he did in chapter 1. why not skip the training and find a better way to introduce etupirko and sixten?

will she be of any importance after this arc?

>>280555006
Why do you care? Next arc might be the last arc

>>280554823
The most probable fanservice chapter is the 6th before Kou and Chiyou depart for body-part hunt, and even then I fully expect it to be a tame one-on-one conversation between the two and not anything raunchy

>>280554911
Not gonna defend Otr's training arc, but was I the only one who actually liked Red Hood's training arc? It introduced a bunch of weird and fun characters -- that guy who fought with slime molds, and the businessman with self-affirmation techniques, the slacker who was deliberately flunking so he could mooch free room and board... I'd have loved to see more of them if the series went on, where as I couldn't care less about the Otr characters.

>>280554896
The character who won the popularity poll looks like a Kpop boyband member. Frieren ain't much better

>>280555006
>after this arc

Read Shinobigoto.

>>280555137
red hood was messier but i liked it way more because the characters were better introduced. i remember almost all of them.
otr is one of those "technically better" but also much more boring. for all it's bad writing you could feel that red hood was his passion project

>>280555264
Why is Jump referencing the railgun?

I have a shower thought, if Naruto was exist today, it would need a fast pace to keep up with readers and a thing like wave arc would be much shorter.

Short spin attention is very much real.

>Ichinosefag still seething

KWAB

>>280557302
Naruto is still getting new fans to this day. It's a story problem for new manga, not an attention span problem.

>>280557302
not really, manga naruto wasnt that slow, Zabuza appeared in chapter 10, and you could cut or trim some chapters like the one where he has diarrhea or make the bells test go a bit faster and youd get the same as Sojo appearing in chapter 5-6

>>280557302
The first 8 chapters (Introductions + bell test) are still way better than most, if not all of the first 8 chapters of the series that came after Naruto.
That would give plenty of room for land of waves to be as it is even today.

>>280557302
You need a strong take off and confident stride. If you fumble the take off it's dead on arrival. If you're shaky readers can tell like sudden switching genres. Most of the time these days the premise isn't very interesting or they don't even come with a hook.

mad that ange can't win the supercup, PSG are beatable and that fraud frank will win it

>>280557429
22 chapter of wave arc is quite a lot of chapters, I don't think any series today can hold that number close to Wave arc in earlier series.

>>280557302
Naruto today would die nearly instantly as modern Jump editors are pushovers. Naruto only succeeded because Kishimoto was tard wrangled by Yahagi at every moment.

>>280557127
copium failed

>>280557551
22 chapter of Wave Arc is just 4 chapters more than Sojo Arc, and it managed to set up the world, 4 main characters+2 antagonists+have some team training, nice action, backstories and shit.
Now that i am saying that - were those really 22 chapters? That's super effective writing without feeling unnatural.

>>280557566
>Naruto today would die nearly instantly as modern Jump editors are pushovers.
That what I'm saying, editors are like that are really expect any series to move faster.

>Naruto only succeeded because Kishimoto was tard wrangled by Yahagi at every moment.
And thank god for that, I cannot imagine a world without Naruto, it is really hard to think about. I bet samurai 8 would be much different if Yahgai was editor.

>>280557302
Let's be honest. Most, if not all of the classic shounen would die instantly in the new era.

They all share the slow burn before getting to the real plot

>>280557685
There's no way you're that retarded
(You)s don't work like that when you're the one accusing others of samefagging

>>280553120
Nta and I give a shit, nuetard.

>>280557302
not really, look at nue, 100 chapters of slow and shitty boring chapters where nothing interesting happens

>>280557920
meanwhile kill blue still lives

>>280556042
was nothign to talk about. it was just the aftermath talk

A slow burn is not inherently bad. But Otr/Red Hood didn't feel like it was moving anywhere. One Piece/Bleach/Naruto already has them going places and places despite their slow burn

Nue and Kill Blue being used as scapegoats for bad manga is so funny
Makes you wonder how Otr and Mamayuyu failed if the bar is supposed to be in hell

>>280558038
kill blue is made by knb author and nue well it just panders to ugly virgins

>>280556023
BASED

>>280558063
>well it just panders to ugly virgins
So why didn't that work for Otr and Mamayuyu with its ecchi and loli character designs?

>>280557921
the point is that editing them is piss easy, so posting a 4chanx screen doesn't count as proof you aren't samefagging.
your insane seethe at being accused of such is proof enough.

>>280558121
Sure, let's ignore how that argument could easily apply to you editing it so you can keep flinging samefag accusations
What an insane retard

>>280558096
mamayuyu author is retarded and tried doing action adventure and then shifted to some weird sol harem, so it lost all it's readers
otr author is retarded and tried to do some shitty training that lost all the readers
neither of them is ecchi or anything
meanwhile nue author introduced girl in early chapter and sticked to it so at least the virgin ugly readers are still there but the quality of the manga itself is so low the sales are dwindling

>>280557920
why is there this myth that old shonens were slow? if anything they were even faster. zoro appears in chapter 3, in hxh hisoka is already doing shit in chapter 6 and the exam basically starts on chapter 2.
naruto is probably the slowest, but it still had good characters and was using the ninja school premise to build them up

>>280558150
We're going to pretend those two didn't try sexy character designs to appeal to various fetishes? Imagine trying to appeal to virgin ugly readers and still losing, it's hard to cope with being so much worse than Nue despite the bar being in HELL

>>280558182
people like the manga. even if you remove tafukuposting, loli spam and the usual seething schizo people still discuss the plot quite a bit
for me it's the manga with more meat on its bones. most i can do for others is saying "yeah i enjoyed this chapter" like ichi or "this blows but i wanna see it to the end" like otr.
kgb simply has more intrigue built in its plot

There is a bunch of people from JP online WSJ circles who think that Nue and Kill Blue being kept in the magazine was the true start of decline. Other thinks it started with UU. It's less about sales and more about the quality. And the bar keeps getting lower.

>>280558359
Yeah but you can't even cope about quality because theoretically it should be very easy for every new series to outdo Nue and Kill Blue
Somehow it turned out to be far more of a herculean task than expected

>>280553168
The problem is they can't solve arise conflicts if they don't speak each other's language

>>280558425
kb already has an existing fanbase of that author
and nue it got lucky and pulled off all the virgins uggos
so if you start now you are going to have to face 2 manga that already have some existing fanbase so it's not that easy, even though all the new manga we get are really bad so it makes sense why they fail too

>>280558479
KB's case is weird because WSJ aren't really well known for their veteran nepotism unlike Magazine and Sunday. I've seen a bunch of theories why they kept KB for so long. That includes:
-manga performing well for first half a year gave them an impression of future hit, they legit didn't expect a hard decline;
-WSJ wanting to keep Fujimaki for those sweet Kuroko money. RxL axe was done in a very rough way, they don't want to repeat it;
-2022 was so bad that they wanted to pretend that 2023 had more hits then it actually did. This is also the case for 2024 manga.

>>280558038
It's literally the same faggot writing 50 posts

>>280557920
I think rather than pace and plot what matter most is having a strong enough hook in the first chapter to work on, and an appealing main character with a struggle the readers can emphasize with. most of the better manga have not just a strong hook but also a reason to get behind the MC. Naruto wants to be hokage because he wants to be acknowledged and is lonely/Tanjiro is broke and now wants to undemon his sister cause she's his only family left/Deku wants to be a hero but couldnt because he had no quirk despite having the heart for it and so on, once you have a good enough hook and compelling main character it feels like people would be willing to put up with whatever plot point you then try to do. It's fine for Naruto to go on the Land of Waves arc because doing important missions is a step to becoming Hokage, and scenes like him getting his headband back from Zabuza and working on tree climbing would make the readers want to see him succeed more. Likewise Tanjiro has to go on an early 3+ chapter training arc because the readers can see that he was powerless against a real demon twice and he does need a training arc to be able to save his sister (in Otr for comparison, like some complained he's already plenty strong by the end of chapter 1 so having a training arc feels weird and unnecessary compared to Tanjiro who could just kinda dance and smell). Deku also has to work for One for All (his training arc was 1 chapter long and still managed to have the garbage cleaning and "eat this" scenes) and then do an entrance exam because thats how schools work.

When a new manga fails early on I don't think its just because they weren't fast enough to get to the plot, but because the plot that they managed to get to just wasn't interesting enough for most people. Sure Bleach is mostly just monster of the week until like Volume 5, but there were a lot of things going for Bleach like the art and premise (at the time) that allowed people to get attached to it.

Say what you will about Kill Blue but at least Kill Blue has a plot and characters and even a hook.

>>280559274
I don't disagree. They aren't covered in ugly whore tattoos and they have fat saggy tits which personally appeals to me a lot. The problem is the women clearly aren't the selling point or target audience. No females show up at all until this most recent cover.

Just look at these covers though. They're so drab that these would never pop in a store shelf. Looks like no effort was put into them at all. Character covers with unappealing characters and uninteresting flat color backgrounds and a boring pose. Doesn't explain the context of the volume at all. Doesn't explain the series. This is pretty much the worst series they could have decided to do character covers with. And it seems the author got the memo to maybe try harder way too late because the last one clearly has more effort put into it.

>>280559512
>the author got the memo
The author doesn't decide the cover. They probably saw the complains over the net and decided to go into different direction.

Witch Watch does actually appealing character covers and I don't read it. The colors pop, there's some context to the chapters, the characters even the males have appealing designs in varied dynamic poses.

Harukaze could have gone the Gunjou ni Siren's route but back off for a Hiruma/Senku type of character that contributes nothing to the story aside from being a plot device

>>280559675
The only sexo girl that is Sket Dance-tier is the thicc bird girl and she rarely appears. It's mostly sausage fest.

Genuinely even Kill Blue again mogs Kiyoshi in another department.
>more dynamic poses
>more eye catching colors
>backgrounds even as minimalistic as they are have more varied patterns and designs that aren't literally flat color
>the characters are clear and contrast from the backgrounds
>the characters aren't repulsive to look at
>probably more contextually related to what's going on in the volumes too

>>280559806
Those covers suck ass tho.
Poses, composition, colors, they're all shit.

>>280559846
Yeah they're half assed but it still looks better than Kiyoshi and like there was more thought put into it.

Genuinely the most baffling part about Kiyoshi is none of the color pages have this problem. Why none of the covers look like these is completely beyond me.

GOD, I love my rakugoka fiancée.

What had riled up hamacucks today?

>>280558881
People also be forgetting JJK, the fightfag manga, also took quite some time setting up everything after the first chapter.

>>280558368
Some theaters have cut every film except Kokuhou to 1 screening per day to make some space on Friday. In all Toho theaters nationwide except the smallest ones is going to play 20-28 times (it could have gone up to 30 times but due to the lenght it won’t) but in Shinjuku is going to play it 39 times, which it’s beyond insane. 20 times is above the standard. Plus it has already sold out only the midnight screening. This is going to be another huge historic event.

All popular series have a good, captivating premise.
Kagurabachi has a good, engaging premise. It makes you want to be kept updated on the series even if the current story or characters aren't that good.
Kagurabachi was able to back that premise with an engaging plot, villains, action of the first couple arcs. That's why it succeeded. That's why I'm still following it it even though I don't like SBA arc.
The lack of good premise is the main reason for manga cancellation or low popularity. Just look at cancelled manga. Most their premises are boring shit.
Second reason is obviously an inability to back good premise with an engaging plot, villains and action. Like, Gachiakuta has solid 8/10 premise which allowed it to reach 50k fm, but the follow up was just okay, so the sales went down.
Or look at the current batch. The only series with an interesting premise is Kaedegami, but it's also the candidate on the failed follow up (that is fine so far, but it can easily be ruined). Other three are failure at Ch1-2.
Take Otr. Premise is 5/10 at best, follow up is 3/10. What did Kawaguchi think? Idk.
And so on.
Premise matters a lot. As does follow up. If both are good, manga will most likely end up being very popular.
But that's not easy.

>>280550298 (OP)
Misaka called White Purity Style the Faggot Style. He also daily bullied Samura and Uruha, implying that they are gay lovers.

I just find it so insane that Kawaguchi had 5 years to think of a better plot and story progression and characters. This guy should just stick to drawing muscle ladies.

>>280560304
The only things he learned
>Otr already left the village
>Trimmed down on the muscle lady fetish
>Add a loli
Rest are lmao

People say that every mangaka gets 3 tries in WSJ but it seems to be not the case for those who only lasted bare minimum 2 rounds twice.

>>280560304
I'm not sure why is he even bothering. It's clear as fuck he does not care about drawing males at all. Just make manga about women's wrestling in J+ or something.

I hope chiyou appear more in her human form

>>280560304
Souma duo had almost 4 years to think for a new manga and it sank immediately. Even veteran can't escape the fact good ideas are hard to come by.

>>280560202
Kagurabachi undersold itself then overdelivered with spectacle, it really doesn't have good characters or even a good premise. Chihiro isn't characterized beyond edgelord who is actually softhearted, Shiba is barely a mentor figure has no major role in the plot, interesting foils like Hiyuki got thrown to the side, Hinao I think the author outright forgot about, there is no consistent side cast to speak of.

The weird thing is the bonus is shit. I don't know why they didn't ask wani to draw a bonus. Authors always do it for anime movies and she did it for mugen

>>280565106
They don't but it would drive a lot of viewers to repeat view to get the exclusive bonus. Currently the bonus is a color page that was already made as merch and handed before lol.
>>280565151
Anime movies are basically carried by bonuses (drawn manga, merch, exclusive shit). Conan rarely does this so its quite stagnant in terms of box office.
A major part of One Piece Red movie revenue is the bonuses for it. Toei gave exclusive and rare shit like merch or exclusive tcg cards etc every other week along with oda drawing special shit for it obviously.

Yeah conan fanbase is quite hardcore and dedicated. I just said it as a reason why they're stagnant. After all, they were the most popular anime movies before the KnY boom. they were the only anime to reach 7B-9B (besides ghibil and shinkai obv) and it's all mostly non canon movies. They COULD do better though.

a man can only dream that one day Japan will be free of those pests ruining my weekly shonen manga as well

now in all honesty, this is why japan created subdivisions and genres for their manga magazines, all the fujo subhumans were contained in the shojo and josei magazines while shonen stayed pure and only existing for fun adventures, then seinen was created to make the edgy manga go there instead and leave shonen as pure childish entertainment, but thanks to modern politics fujo subhumans ask for every manga serialization to publish their trash because "we need more women representation" even tho shoujo and josei already exist, anyway Total Fujo Death

>>280565990
Wrong board?

>>280566024
this is the Weekly Fujo Jump thread tho

Sakamoto new Opening is KINO

>>280565990
China killing its biggest market.

>>280566113
>more animated than the entire S1
lmao

Ping pong is the best series of this batch, Harkuaze, Kaede and Ekiden are all boring as hell

>>280565990
>China is enacting total fujo
What do you mean?

>>280566278
Based Pongbro, but chill on Harukaze.

>>280566278
Harukaze and Ping Pong will LIVE until at least their 50th chapters. Kaede will go the way of Mamayuyu and die somewhere in the 30s, Ekiden is dead in the water, axed by 19/20.

>no baseball
>no kaede
>but ping pong
Bad look for those 2.

>>280566362
axed by 18*

Read her manga.

>>280566278
You have to admit this series is ironically hilarous

>>280565990
it's fake news, they're killing actual underground porno and not the shit that makes money and has government commissars keeping a lid on it

>>280566166
if your biggest market is trash made for fujoshi then it deserves to burn into the ground just like it is happening with jump or who knows maybe now all those fujo subhumans will start buying weekly shonen jump now that china got rid of all their trash

>>280566589
japan has the most insane fantasies about its own lawlessness

Is sakamoto days lose staying power? It likes no one talk about it.

>>280566636
>Fuck fujos
>but please buy weekly shonen jump

He can't draw but that make the whole shit funny, hope it live

>>280566749
Because it's a FLOP

>>280566384
Where is Kiyoshi?

>>280566384
Ah yes Kill Blue famously known to sell more than Sakamoto Days

>Otr of the flames
>Ekiden bros
>Kaedegami
>Harukaze mound
>Ping pong peril
>TIMbers
>Beethoven

>Our WINNERS

>>280566864
Barely anybody rushes to read it within an hour of release.

>>280566948
Saito is full of shit

Does Kawaguchi still make posts about Otr on his xitter?

>>280566850
SOVL

>Jump+ readers only want one thing and it's DISGUSTING
I hope it ends up cannibalizing CSM's sales. fujimoto got 100+ chapters and failed to deliver

T-this time for sure!

>>280566664
yeah ikr, real life yakuza nowadays only smuggles nuclear missile parts

How fucking bad is the state of WSJ if they made a separate 1st chapter book for manga series from 2024 to give away at the event?

>>280567374
Kiyoshi was good back then, switching to battle shonen slop was not a good idea.

>>280567374
>Why
Because everything so far in 2025 has been axed lmao

>>280567374
Get those irrelevant manga away from our KINGS

>>280567597
The hag looking extra loli there

>>280567374
You know what, I'd take the current batch Ekiden included than these 4

>>280567347
It's just me but Hokazono feels like a Zohran voter if he lived in nyc.

>>280566384
>kaedegami fell off faster than Otr did
Unfortunate
I'm satisfied with my Ping Pong predict tho, looks like it's the dark horse

>>280567530
i thought it was battle shonen?

Jump bros, how the fuck does mashima keep getting decent jrpg while we're getting full of garbage?

At least Kiyoshi sells better than Kill Blue

>>280568123
How many copies has Kiyoshi vol 4 sold now?

>>280568111
Wasn't this announced before he fell off even more?

>biggest hits in Jump are KGB with a young adult protagonist that doesnt how to drive and adopts children whenever he can, and Ruri which has a female protagonist that keeps getting more power than she knows what to do with it
bros... are they right?

>>280568345
>t that doesnt how to drive
He knows how to, his cars simply don't last much.

>>280568383
yeah i had a retard moment

>>280568260
Eden zero never sold well from the start.

>>280567354
>your idiot uncle gets entrapped by the feds

>>280568345
This is simply a blue ocean moment.
Older people in Japan are already familiar with anime and manga. Kaigai people just found out recently when MSM shat the bed and streaming platforms start putting in anime. So they want something to their taste.

>>280568260
>https://www.gematsu.com/2020/09/konami-announces-edens-zero-third-person-action-rpg-for-console-top-down-action-rpg-for-mobile
Yeah like way before
It was announced 5 years ago and that was fairly early into Edens Zero run
Some EZfags were really insistent that it wasn't possible Kodansha dumped a bunch of money on Mashima's new series, the games and anime were supposed to be a sign of success instead of premature greenlit projects

>>280568345
>put sakamoto there
>it's completely irrelevant internationally
>DDD's mc is okarun anyway

>>280568253
10k at least

>>280557956
It got hot girls carried the nue manga, if you asked me, it should get axe long time ago.

>>280564788
>Reminder: Wani is one of the only authors who stood up to shueisha bullshit (The other being Togashi and third being Toriyama) and literally fought with them for over a year to hand the fans a high quality manuscript instead of the low quality shit they got for very expensive price.

Explain further.

>>280568253
According to Shoseki's estimations for this 1st week:
>Astro Royale has sold 6.201 copies.
>Ultimate Exorcist Kiyoshi has sold 6.144 copies.
YABBA DABBA DOOOO

>Get to read Jump AND watch Gachiakuta on Sunday
Life is good

>>280568577
>>280568260
This isn't mashima's only games they made though. Fairytail had 2 games and there's also farmagia

>>280568818
now add the poaching tax

>>280568604
DDD mc is Momo, the mangaka even compared her to Superman

Any update for 4 new series viewcount on jump+? Includes otr and NP would be nice tho.

>>280569063
She's the face, but she doesn't feel like the MC, just the main heroine.

>>280568731
>Sell replicas of the manuscript
>Got a newbie to do it and he messed up
>Instead of the replica looking like the real manuscript (you can see the white out and shit) it's just a cheap photo copy
>Fans complained but Shueisha said they did nothing wrong
>Wani had to ask them herself on behalf of the fans for Shueisha to begin a proper investigation
>They admitted they're wrong and issue a replacement
>Didn't say shit in their own statement but got exposed of their bullshit in Asahi newspaper

>>280569145
>be jump
>fuck up kimetsu as hard as you can because you sold the rights to aniplex and ufo for peanuts
>can't make money off anything that isn't the manga since even its merch is based off the anime

SEX prison

>>280569199
Shueisha gets a shitton of money from it
also merch off kimetsu anime is still based on the IP. they're getting a cut regardless and they're on the committee anyway
Same for the author, basically every single party has gotten very rich from the IP, including the merch companies in 2020 considering it outsold pokemon for the year.
Shueisha is just a nepotistic company. As seen with the intentional underprint of kny last volume. or their treatment to Dragon ball

>>280569252
Tera is so fucking sexy...

>>280569122
>she doesn't feel like the MC
she's won way more battles than Okarun

>>280568032
it started more like mashle, the protagonist is uber powerful but his actual dream is living a normal school boy's life.
it was actually kinda fun and endearing, but then it became fightfaggotry against the most one note jobber villains ever. at least we got jack joe

>>280569768
Man I felt same way with sakamoto days.

>>280569768
Problem is that the school arc also sucked ass, kiyoshi never found it's footing and thus is selling like shit

>>280553495
out of the danger zone, so more people picking it up

>>280569888
Hopefully it eventually manages to sell better than nue

AIEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!

>>280557302
I don't know, it feels like all the big manga were pretty fast paced or did a big swerve
>wave arc is fast
>soul society swerve
>east blue is fast
Is there any hit manga in WSJ that was truly slow-paced initially?

>>280569936
Is anyone subscribed to this shit? Literally what reason is there to do it when you can just read shit on manga plus or go pirate?

>>280570025
>Is there any hit manga in WSJ that was truly slow-paced initially?
It wouldn't fly in WSJ since all editors demand fast pace or get axe.

>>280569936
I would love to subscribed if they offer questionnaire, but they didn't.

>>280569794
yeah, i wanted shit like sakamoto using a road sign to stop a bus hijacked by terrorists who wanted to destory shueisha for axing their fav manga, i wanted shit like sakamoto taking the wheels of a plane and use them as a segway to chase an enemy in the air

>>280569854
yeah, but i found it comfy. it felt like doron, shit but also endearing to me. ping pong is shaping to be much the same

>>280568604
Sakamoto is popular on netflix

>>280560602
I mean, how many veterans actually got hit series in WSJ twice in a row? Togashi, Toriyama, the Death Note duo, and Matsui? Matsui is the miracle worker here, three in a row. Let's not talk about Ohba and Obata

Shit I wanted to do this earlier but I forgot.

nice horror manga

>>280570205

>>280569768
But Mashle was bad every time Mashle wasn't on screen, especially when it came to battles.

>>280567714
how old is she again

>>280567597
SEX THE LOLIBABA

>>280568949
>Trashakuta
lmao

>>280570194
Technically Shimabukuro, if he hadn't been a pedo

>>280570223
What was editor department thinking?

>>280570258
it really was, key namek almost killed my interest in the series as a whole, but at least it delivered with the final battle

Kiyoshi was 100% rushed in-between the exam and Astaroth's first appearance. The last chapter of exam arc hinted at different arc, not the one the manga got.

>>280569122
Everything revolves around her and is who we follow, brain dead moron

>>280570194
Assuming any of the recently finished mangaka come back, like Gege or Horikoshi, who will flop and who will succeed?

>>280569122
Bro she is carrying EVERY battle so far

>>280570481
This was among the best manga they had ready for serialization

>>280570495
They told him it didnt had much time left then they decided to axe Astro which gave Kiyoshi more time

>>280570683
really?

>>280570223
god the more i look at it the more i'm horrified, why does he have multisegmented eyes

>>280569122
Of course Momo(taro) is the MC.

>>280570583
honestly I think they'd both succeed
the finished product of JJK was terrible but Gege has a great instict for making it work week to week. Horikoshi could get a surviable hit purely from his sexy girls. I'm not a Demon Slayer hater at all but I think Gotouge might be in the most trouble because I think he'd want to write something more sophisticated

>>280570481
This editorial has somehow thought this and beethoven were fit for serialization, ping pong also feels like it could die at any moment like beethoven did if it can't constantly deliver on every single chapter with its premise right now

which axebaits genuinely did nothing wrong and were just unlucky

>Sakamato new season's double-episode release thread died at just 24 posts
OHNONONO...

>>280570492
Is there any other WSJ series that was so hard-carried by one character? Maybe JJK with Gojo, but not nearly to to same extent as Mashle.

>>280570820
it's hard to say because the stuff that gets U19s probably had bad results from the first few chapters and thus had already deviated from their vision halfway through the first volume

>>280570865
jump plus but kaiju no8. whenever kafka and kikoru weren't on screen i would get bored.
mashle is probably the bigger outlier tho

>>280570847
>people fight
It took only these two words to utterly destroy any trace of Sakamoto hype on /a/

>>280570820
Two On Ice and Martial Master Asumi were good but about niche subjects that most don't give a shit about

>>280570820
Doron

>>280567347
>he’s gonna be there in person
If /kgb/ has any burgers someone should ask him about tafuku

>>280570939
that dude who made it is the ultimate shitposter

>>280570771
Man, it no wonder why they though Ekiden Bros was good.

>>280571029
Our WINNERS*

>>280570820
neru maybe. i feel like if it was on another magazine it could live a bit longer and be one of those low stake comfy manga you read from time to time to relax.

>>280570965
i actually really enjoyed doron but come on, it had some of the worst fight coreography and some of the most forgettable pointless villains ever put to manga.
it was great at everything else, oosuka should stop trying to do battle manga

>>280571030
Just extremely good at putting into words the general feel.

>>280570965
Doron was given over 30 chapters and was serialized during a battle shonen drought so technically it was in the most optimal condition to thrive
The author just couldn't make the most of the opportunity

>>280570956
Why doesn't Japan like MMA

>>280571071
>one shitposter did more to wsj and manga in 4chan then jeremy whole 10 years of seething

>>280571052
neru is a good example of one where we have no idea what the original plan really was because it was cancelled almost immediately

>>280570223

>>280571126
I don't think he was a shitposter, just shitted in Sakamoto once and it caught on like fire because of how spot on it was.

>>280571047
i know it's a shop but this shows how important the mc design is. i bet many people took one look at it and said "no, i am not interested" before even knowing what the manga is about.
such a shame

>>280571085
it was absurdly lucky with being the last of its batch but also having a lot of other series ending or entering huge hiatuses. if it wasn't for hxh returning it would've gone on longer

>>280571127
didn't it get axe notice at chapter 3? that is insanely fast

>>280571029
I really wanna know if he's an actual sumo champion

>>280571127
What even was Neru? It was a martial arts manga fused with a school SOL thing? And the protagonist's goal was to beat up some random chick, like not even date her or anything? The school was a legit school, but just for martial arts, not even for the military or for sports or anything like that. Just kids being sent there to learn to fight for some reason?

>>280571052
I clung to Doron in the hopes that Doron would turn into a cute girl

>>280571217
I'm gonna be square with you anon I don't remember
I remember thinking the whole school things was terrible because the first chapter is all about how this kid doesn't fit into the world at all and how was he going to express his gifts but still live in this world
then it was like lol a school that exactly fits every need he has

Man I remember shitposter tried to create a console war between red hood and neru and yet both got axe and the funny part is, they talk about red hood in post-axe while neru was just forgotten.

I still hate the whole fake console wars bullshit to this day.

What a chill thread this was

>>280571217
It was a school meant for kids who will eventually inherit their clans and dojos to meet up and train together and against each other.

>>280571323
he's asleep

>>280571323
Inside you there are two wolves

>>280571344
who?

>>280571344
He may be having an inner schizo meltdown.

>>280571217
it was about martial arts as an art form. also neru's grandpa vanished but that was barely touched upon, it really just was mostly "school sol but martial arts".
it was axed so fast who knows what it actually wanted to do, really

>>280571273
yeah it was a bit lame, i feel like entering should've been a bigger deal, a la hunter exam. you have this kid who wants to fit in, heards of a school that would help him fit in and works hard to get in, fighting for a place in which he can belong.
feels like it almost writes itself, after that just show it isn't as dreamy as he hoped, but it's still better so he's gonna fight for it still

>>280571312
i did chuckle at the neru u19 edit being red hood's with neru in the background. but honestly even back then it was just shitposters, neru was so doa people stopped bothering with that consolewar very early, especially when red hood entered a death spiral thanks to village namek

>>280571312
I swear there was a third axebait involved there, but I don't remember

>>280566384
>Westerners makes the big fuss out of the latest KGB chapter
>Japanese dont give a shit

Its funny how Hokazono just doesnt feel the japanese tune. They want fancy EB battles, story and world to have common sense and characters to feel like living persons, not family drama of old unpleasant fart and pointless aura farming.

>>280571323
got to see some ocs and some discussions of a begone time.
i wish more threads could be like this, i miss the yearly shitposting charts. may make one of my own for fun

>>280571376
>KGB getting into anime card game
>Hokazono going to anime convention (in person)
He's getting ready for when it happens, be prepared

>>280571401
If you don't remember, then it wasn't very important.

>>280571412
5ch is not the place for KGB lol, it's threads are constantly raided by Sakafags shitting on the series no matter what it does
Animanch and 2ch have actual KGB discussion

>>280571448
Might have been Phantom Seer or Blood Oath

>>280571431
and all he has is a growth% chart and a few shitposts that could never take root because they only make sense to him

>>280571489
Uhhh, pretty sure that was before redhood and neru.

>>280571412
>doesnt
Every
Time

>>280571496
He's gonna take 1 smear frame and parade it for months

>>280571401
there's Candy Flurry, that was before red hood and neru, and PPPPPP that was after them

Does WSJ has a Ruri tier popular oneshot in reserve or is it bleak

>>280571659
Tate Roll and theres another one about a kid in a trenchcoat

>>280570223
>>280571146
DIE YOU FUCKING DEMONNNNN!!!

>>280571810
Someone add legs on his shoulders

>>280551261
Could be some kids who were too young for KnY during its initial splash of popularity finally catching up.

>>280571706
Tate Roll must few years old now. The mangaka said he still had the deal, but what are the odds that he jumps to J+ instead.
