hold on, is Elusive Samurai is on break this sunday?

>>280757799
Sudden illness

>>280757799
Yes. It was a sudden break.

>>280757799
nah, that shit ended

>>280757799
vaxxed

I refuse to believe they give UEK a cover just to axe it next round. That means it will have less chapters than Chojo.

HI

MA

TEN

"exclamation mark"

Cosmetic Brand "Himariz"

An energetic high school girl president

With 80,000 followers

I'm the charismatic model Yoshino Himari

But I can't cook

I can't do laundry

I can't clean the dishes

And I can't even use the copy machine.....

I totally suck at housework

My company hired a personal housemaid for me

A GUY FROM MY CLASS?!

IEMORI TENICHI?!

I CAN'T LET THE ENTIRE SCHOOL KNOW ABOUT THIS

It's a secret between us

WHAT AM I SUPPOSED TO DO?!

Good Morning Iemori

"yawn"

My high school life is over

I'm so lame

That's right, you baka

Himariz? That's my cosmetic

I look up to my housekeeper

From now on, please protect my home, okay?

>>280756252
Was this good?

>>280756125
I wish Oda knew how to color in different skin colors

>>280757926
Tafuku ate this for lunch btw.

>>280756252
Delicious brown?

>>280757652
Hope he doing okay.

>>280758106
Was he WATCHING something as well?

>>280758117
It's over, he's received a notice of impending axe.

>>280758130
Eating shit and watching CP

Go read Ping Pong.

>>280758203
But enough about what Kazane gets up to in his free time.

KINOTR!

>>280758286
I don't like kawaguchi's toddler like character designs

Every time I decide to check Kiyoshi's current chapter it's the same sequence of angry Kiyoshi standing like his but hurts while some faggot demon says something so gay that it makes Ichi look like a harem manga, sometimes with Kiyoshi launching exactly one energy blast with an awful name. How can people like this crap is beyond my undetstanding.

>>280758361
Something something Oda

>>280757926
I thought Elusive Samurai was a decent series... I wanted to read it, but now I don't.

My problem with OTR is that the pages seem too overloaded.

>>280758398
The latest chapters have been peak Matsui, which implies lots of weird shit that can alienate people hard.

>>280758451
There's no clarity

My problem with Kiyosh is that its art so ugly. The story is bad too.

>>280757926
>Matsui drawing this
>When he could've made much more bucks drawing a GTOsque Assclass sequel
We surely can say he draws mangas for passion

My problem with our WINNERS is... wait, I don't have any.

>>280758627
I think quite the opposite, Kiyoshi is really coolly stylized.

>>280756968
>himaten and shinobigoto almost hitting 20k
Why cant kiyoshi do the same? Is he retarded?

I rabu Iori

When the FUCK are we getting TOC rankings forthe new series

>>280758918
chapter 8?

I can't stand Himaten, their face all the look same!

>>280759053
ikr? it's HORRENDOUS!

No thread for Harukaze Mound?

>>280758989
Fuck me,chapter 1 usually doesn't count even if ranks well so you're saying i need to wait like 1 more fucking month to be able to shitpost stuff with arguments?

Aside from Ekiden, this new batch has been good so far.

>>280758918
Harukaze's first rank (ch8) is in two issues or around 3 weeks.

>>280758117
At this point he probably should find someone to be the writer

>>280759316
Not everyone need a writer, do you think Oda need a writer too?

>>280759179
Yeah no one has made a thread for it since chapter 2.

>>280759255
Yeah, Ekiden is disgusting.

What is your unpopular take on WSJ?

>>280759349
No I just think Kawaguchi has no idea to write a story.

>>280756252
Left is male
Right is female

>>280759419
Nowadays it feels like saying anything remotely negative about kagurabachi immediately summons the schizo inquisition, people try to sell it add the second coming of chainsaw man ( back when it was good at least) but it's so mediocre it's unreal

legitimately how much longer can it go on? isn't it basically the same shit over and over again?

Does it have extra chapters? The manga ended in a cliffhanger and it getting 3 volumes instead of 2 like Embers and the usual axed sub-20ch manga is weird.

Are they really gonna axe this series?

They should hire a non Japanese editor.

>>280762089

>>280762089
>Superfag
Kek, CHADku won!

>>280759864
It's a story that is set up in such a way it could go on essentially forever, or wrap up within a year. It'll end when the author is tired of writing it and not before.

>>280760686
Maybe but it makes no sense. WSJ is very stingy with covers. They don't give one to something that is just 1 year old and ending soon. They could give it just lead color but no, they went for full cover + lead color combo.
If this gets axed than the only explanations I could go with:
- Sugita overused his editor privileges, reorganization happened and he was demoted or something but this still isn't supposed to affect the manga so suddenly;
- they decided to axe one more manga this round but didn't want to do this to Kill Blue so they went for UEK. Still doesn't make sense.

>Luffy’s on the cover
>Luffy and the Straw Hats haven’t been in the manga for 3 chapters
...

Hima-ten is getting more and more similar to Nisekoi.

>>280762537
Shocking!

>>280762452
>they decided to axe one more manga this round but didn't want to do this to Kill Blue
KB definitely did not escape the axe this time, so this theory doesn't make any sense.

How surprised would you be if they only let the running faggots manga live?

Kaedegami is exactly like Ichi in its premise, but more interesting, but since Ichi has already gotten popular, it's gonna overshadow Kaedegami. 2 very similar manga in the same magazine is never a good idea. Ichi is also more fujo-friendly which is lucrative nowadays, compared to Kaedegami which is for the male gaze. When given a choice which to axe and which to keep, Saito will choose Ichi over Kaedegami.

>>280762718
I would be SEETHING

>>280762597
But are they forcing to end it in 5 chapters or they launched the last arc which might be like 15 chapters long?

>>280762729
KaedegaMID has shit art and action

>>280762531
It's Oda's policy for marketing. Luffy never appears on any spinoff magazine, and every time one piece is on WSJ's cover it has to include luffy

>>280761326
The hoodie grab is as close as you will get.

>>280762854
>KaedegaMID
awful nickname
do better

>>280762854
Wrong.

>>280762854
More like kAXEdegami.

>>280762729
>Ichi is also more fujo-friendly
it really isn't very fujo-friendly, it gets basically no fujo art

>>280763150
Wrong.

>>280762034
They should get a vet mangaka as editor

>>280763307
Like who?

>>280763342

>>280762729
IMO Ichi and Kaedegami having similar premises is the reason they complement each other very well. Ichi is a lighthearted manga that takes inspiration from western euro fantasy and makes it "cute", while Kaedegami is following Chinese fantasy which tends to be more "brutal" even after being toned down for PG audiences. These different approaches on a similar premise deliver a full package of fun, edge, cuteness and even a bit of raunchiness that wouldn't be possible with just one manga.
>When given a choice which to axe and which to keep, Saito will choose Ichi over Kaedegami.
Kaedegami's reception so far has been very positive, not on Ichi's level (because Ichi is being written by a popular veteran), but it's certainly better than every other manga serialized in 2025 and even some old manga. Besides, with the amount of axebait and manga in their final arcs, it will take a while before Saito has to pick between Ichi and Kaedegami.

>>280763210
just checking animanch, which is a super fujo / otaku board
Ichi has like 2 threads meanwhile KGB has at least 10 lol

let me know when Ichi gets whole fan anthologies

>Forced push with very little fan interaction vs series known to be consistently held back for no reason

>>280763442
>IMO Ichi and Kaedegami having similar premises is the reason they complement each other very well
Reading Kaedegami exposes the hack that is Ichi's writing. Not because the former is better, but because Ichi basically has no premise and just sits on its two mangaka's popularity.
Rereading Ichi is some schizo whiplash in tone.

>>280763727
kuro, aka, nishiki... don't look

>>280764021
They were forced to watch.

>>280762809
It's moving very quickly. This weeks chapter literally was just a huge exposition dump on the Home Ec class in order to spoiler them on the entire plot of the series up to now and then fast forward to the assault on the enemy base to get Noren back. It doesn't feel like it's setting up a long arc currently.

>>280763830
what are those numbers

Kiyoshi getting axed after giving Usui the feeling of an anniversary and some mild merch. This as far as Oda's nepotism will take you?

i liked it when it was still comedic. i liked this stupidly overpowered guy whose dream is having a normal high school life

>>280759652
and that's why schizos are such a blight

>>280759652
The negative things YOU say are complete bullshit cause you don't read the manga and are upset by it
Don't be upset because we actually call you out over it

Chainsaw man part 1 >>>> KGBI

>>280764944

>>280759652
Other than the usual schizo, nobody is talking about KGBT here

>>280764944
FAGruha...

Hard to believe it last longer, shoulda got axe under 18 or less.

>>280764944
>>280764966

>>280763985
Ichi is "Happy Silly Adventures In Majikland ft. The Primordial Lord of Absolute Destruction". The manga has been about showing cute characters fool around and catch not-pokemon until the edgy villain chooses to end the world while trying to avoid the standard shonen trope of training > beating a bad guy > jobbing to another bad guy > repeat. That's why it's pace is so weird compared to other works in the magazine. Although to be fair Nishi's writing sometimes can be too "slow" if you read the manga every week. They are better suited for binge sessions where you can read them without waiting.
Additionally, one of the reasons Kaedegami feels similar to Ichi (at least IMO) is because the author is taking things relatively slow (for WSJ standards) with more focus on the interactions between the main characters than on introducing the real antagonists and fighting them BUT without wasting time on "side quests" that don't advance the plot or develop the personality of the characters involved (this was one of Ichi's early mistakes, but luckily it was corrected in time).

>>280765441

>Kiyoshi's chapter is named after Arctic Monkeys album

You can tell that the mangaka is in mid-30 just by this kind of references

>>280765488
where did you learn this?

>>280765588
Bro thinks he is Araki

>>280757461
Why would you vote for Otr

>>280765165
There is nothing slow about Kaedegami's plot
It's bar for bar KGB's pacing down to saving a daughter that lost her parents and meeting Hinao/Bai Ze the informant and introducing the first boss on chapter 5
It's legitimately the most well thought you'd have to wonder if Imamura is the editor

Is KB finally ending?

>>280766200
2 more weeks

Otr is probably finished bros
>no actual emotional hook since otr just wants to fight in a war like his dad and this is barely built upon past the first chapter
>villain faction is piss poor and boring, just random jobbers who are around for three chapters and die with no characterization or buildup
>world is utterly uninteresting and hardly ever developed despite the scope of the story spanning a whole country with a war
The only series with less emotional stakes in this magazine right now is fucking ekiden, even the new shit from this batch somehow got this right

Otr and KDG's character names are filtering me hard

>>280766149
>Starts a brand new series
>Leaves for like a week during the first 10 chapters to go on vacation to NYC for the series he actually cares about

>>280766019
I like it, and why do you care?

>>280766332
What else is he helming besides KGB you'd have to wonder he has at least one slot open after MHA ended

>>280766442
Considering they've been hard focused on getting an anime since the mangaplus interview, and he scored a huge hit for the magazine, he might just be solely focused on it

>>280766484
>a huge hit for the magazine
lmao

>>280766484
MHA had him much busier and he was still attending stuff for KGB
That's no reason enough

>>280766577
MHA had a whole committee running things by the time he got it
Until the anime is announced Imamura is running everything for KGB

>>280766310
>instead of Chiyou, BaiZe, shenguai, Nyue they're Shiyuu, Hakutaku, Shinkai, Nue
I'd laugh my ass off every chapter and not read it kek

>>280766551
it's one of the few (along with Ichi) that isn't pixel art, that says enough about KGB

>>280766621
I call chiyou tits and the boy boy

>>280766551
>The jump subscription deal hooks are Sakamoto, Blue Box and Kagurabachi
Yes

Our PIXELS

>>280766725
How close are Sakamoto Days and Blue Box to ending?

>>280766716
Ah yes, the informant Shinkai Hacktack and his baby Nue

>>280766800
BB is in zombie mode, sakamoto days has them fighting the final villain

>>280766800
BB has everything done, it can end whenever
Sakamoto is probably ending within the next calendar year

>>280762854
The art is good but I really don't like the "only final shot" thing the mangaka is doing with the action.

>>280763513
Shit made by women for fujos is never as popular as anything made by men because women can't write men. Ichi does have some good girls though.

>>280766263
>The only series with less emotional stakes in this magazine right now is fucking ekiden
Ekiden at least tries to be emotional despite the ugly art style and boring characters. Otr is just Kawaguchi ticking boxes of generic anime tropes withoht understanding them or putting an effort on anything other than the art. It's like when corpos use memes to advertise their products, it looks like a cool manga, but everything is fake and gay.

Who do you think is gonna get the group cover next week, probably not KGB or Ichi since they have anniversaries coming up, maybe Akane?

>>280766815
>>280766861
I bet they are going to bring someone big like Furudate soon then

>>280767514
Doubt he's coming back. Haikyuu is still selling.

i think it's about time for Doron's author to get his 3rd chance

>>280767602
nobody gonna for third chance cause they probably knew it will get axed anyway.

>>280768735
They're both bad honestly
Otr is a red hood redux and has terrible art
Kaedegami's chinese naming and mythology makes it a chore to read

>>280768742
He saw the vision.

OTR WILL LIVE!

FUCK THE AXE!

Otr will live as an 8k seller that gets less and less discussion before inevitably being axed by ch 450 if saito continues his current pace

>>280768914
We will see about that...

>>280768967
When jump is struggling, it's better to keep the small hits instead of axing everything and pissing everyone who takes the time to read axebait off

>>280768967
shit hood was averaging 3k back in its heyday and you think otr can triple from there lol lmao

>>280769010
If Nakano successfully killed KGB would Astro have lived and done better?

Only the return of Gege can save this shit magazine.

>>280769054
If Nakano killed off Kgb I think he’d be sweeping carpets by now

>>280769071
>Geygey
Nah

>>280769039
It's funny they're implicitly saying axebait sell more under Saito with these predicts like Otr selling 8k
They're either really retarded or too new to notice Sato's worst performers sell more than Nakano's

Would you risk it?

>>280769131
manga/anime landmine girls are just autists, there are nothing bad about them so where's the catch?

>>280768877

>>280769420
>Varying groups mindbroken by it

Kinda ironic 90% of discussion ends up around these three when all 3 are safe

kiyoshi, KB, otr
that's the next 3 to get axed

currently making a code (with chatpgt) to detect which 2ch comments that have the most そうだね. hopefully i can make it

>>280770936
No give a shit about chink shit but you,

>>280770969
>I haven't seen one successful Chinese theme manga from wsj since Houshi Engi
Shocking
Almost as if it takes way more effort on the reader part to care about chinese names and mythology

>>280756674
Never. The creator abandoned it.

>>280771068
>>280771101
or you got rejected by a chink because you're a repulsive loser

>>280771208
Settle down, okay chang?

>>280771101
Kaedegami is pretty close to Houshin Engi in terms of retelling a Chinese mythical story, it's 50/50
And the chinese name translation is western translator choice because nips have Japanese version with kanji letters, he made the right call though since Chiyou's myth is originally from China

>>280771247
I found out Viz just licensed Kingdom and they're gonna use Chinese spelling for that (Xin, Ying Zheng, etc.) so that's probably gonna be the standard

>>280769054
No, the mc alone killed it

Unironically because they commit
A lot of manga are just stealing the aesthetic of some rando kaigai land despite the story being the same shit you'd usually see
Look at Otr

>>280771399
They commit and actually have knowledge about the shit they're writing about, the second part is important

>>280771399
>Unironically because they commit
in other words sovl and passion?

Kingdom is the best seinen manga ongoing

Change my mind

>>280771455
That's included in commiting kek

>>280771386
Those are rare, put some gods appear from time to time.

I'd like to nominate myself and my first action would be to re-visit both Koisome Momiji and Cross Account and usher in the great ecchi romcom wave.

>>280771634
No, I can't cuck my nigga Chihiro.

>>280771611
>>280771680
I mean. At least MHA/JJK/KnY were a solid trio even if KnY ended way too soon.

The lineup is too weak for a solid top 3. It's just KGB and the lackeys

>>280771699
If you're not bringing nipples you're gonna get left behind.

>>280771587
>cropping out the user
Curious what series the poster is a fan of, who keeps forcing these stupid alliances

Yes and no.
Yes, she's cute. No, I wouldn't commit to her because I'd have to see all her rakugo performances and it'd take over her life and my life as well and my entire life would be supporting rakugo and overshadow any of my own dreams and career

>>280771737
Jump's job is to fill the lineup with 30k, 50k+ manga first before another le big 3 kek

>>280771520
>3/6 female MCs
Jump would NEVER.

>>280771634
...

how do i do the zebrack shit if i want to vote?

>>280771737
Theres never gonna be another big 3 because no manga author is drawing a 500+ chapters manga again. The nu WSJ model is basically a constant run of short to mid range length, constant rotation of mangas. Shit like Naruto or Bleach are not happening again, no author is gonna put themselves through that soul sucking weekly chapter schedule for 15+ years, forget one piece altogether because that is unironically never happening again

>Context: one fag rants about KDG will become mid by relying on boobs to survive

>>280771864
cough up some money every month

>>280771877
So basically going back to the 90s and before

Twitter likes harukaze a lot, while nip likes ping pong.

>>280771889
That explain why kdg's story was so mid.

>>280771999
nip twitter and 2ch likes pingpong

>>280771386
In the gaijin oneshot an aztec one won silver, by a chink

>>280771889
I'm pretty sure 2chan isn't obsessed with the things we say about series so why should we give them so much attention? Is not like the popularity of a series in there directly translates on to how well it will do later on

>>280772045
That gaijin contest never went anywhere huh

>>280771796
I see WSM got a replacement for DnA

>>280771889
Sex appeal is just the first hook.
If you have nothing else besides that you turn into Nue. If your story turns out to be fun you become Yaegernacht.
But too much boobs and you'll never become Gokurakugai.

>>280772080
Was it by Nakano? Maybe Saito doesnt wants that because hed lose spotlight

>>280772032
i mean, non-japanese twitter

>>280771995
Pretty much. Even if they blow up and dont get the axe, I think 200 to max 300 chapters is when all these shonens now end.

>>280772072
Sadly nip opinions matter to the magazine and the author

>>280771999
harukaze is divisive

>>280772152
>nip opinions matter to the magazine and the author
That's true but 2chan is crazy unreliable, they flip flop based on what's doing well at the moment

Why WSJ usually axe the series before the sale, why wouldn't WSJ just wait to see if sales help the series before they axe it? Who would bother to buy it anyway if they didn't know the series they bought was axed, beside hardcore fans and axed manga collector.

>kgb loses again

>>280772216
Because the surveys are way more important than volume sales and very very rarely will series sell well but not get surveys

>>280770911
Jiangshi X was terrible because it was nonstop action. They immediately got betrayed and the escape arc got way too predictable

>>280772201
Well yeah at its core, they're no different from us

>>280772216
You can tell when a series is doing well or if its a flop before the first volume comes out

Would be funny if ping pongs survives since saito put it in the last of the batch

>>280772241
Do casual reader bother sent surveys to WSJ this day?

>>280772099
>If you have nothing else besides that you turn into Nue. If your story turns out to be fun you become Yaegernacht.
Except Nue has always been comedy before fanservice?

>>280772282
Nue was last.

Kdg will live its mandate of heaven

>>280772282
Nue was also the last one in its four manga batch.

any new info about jump giga, such as the one-shots and the bonuses?

>>280772314
A lot of readers don't but a good % still do
And if 5000 people say they buy the magazine every week for the series that's way way way more money than 5000 people buying like 3 or 4 volumes a year

>>280771999
>Non-japanese twitters like harukaze
>Mangaplus comments keep praising it PEAK writing
Probably their first or second baseball manga in life, nip otakus already went through several local great baseball manga so Harukaze is too mediocre for them

>>280756426

>>280772318
>fanservice
I said sex appeal though? Are you saying Nue sells 25k because of its comedy and not because of its girls in sexy outfits falling in love with Gakuro?

>>280772280
Do other manga magazine copy WSJ way before? It's something I kept to thought about it.

>>280772380
You seem to know more than I do, care to share some of your stuff on this? I do know TOC is much more important than series sales.

>>280772249
Ping GODs, I kneel.

>>280769552
Being short is part of what makes them bad.
It just seems like two unrelated syllables picked from a random generator. There's no flow or sense of connection in the name, at least to someone who doesn't already speak the language which is already just a collection of random syllables.
We're at least more familiar with what Japanese looks/sounds like, and also being consonant-based it's more natural to a western audience then Chinese (vowel-based) is.

>>280772547
Anon it's literally basic math
>250 yen a week for 48 weeks
>580 yen 4 times a year
Surveys obviously just matter more lol

>>280772368
Yes. The mangaka of ginka & gluna is doing a new one-shot!

>strongest member is a shota who has trouble peeing
I hate this trope

>>280772603
>PEEing
Like..... shooting "white pee"?

>>280772249
>>280772558
I feel sorry for ekiden bros author, I really do. What the editorial department actually think it's okay to publish this kind of series with that face?

>>280772603
As if Yura isn't lying to his face

>>280772603
>I hate this trope
There are other manga with shota that have trouble peeing?
Nigga has pandora's box here

>>280772636
Isn't he a newbie? Maybe they just want him to get experience

>>280772636
Let him experience crushing failure so he can come back stronger. Or just give up entirely. Whatever works.
I feel bad for him too, his work is just so shit and he's only gotten people shitting all over it.

>>280772622
if he does white pee hes not a shota

>>280772581
Okay so, what about digital sub like zebrack comic and jump+ then? I pretty sure most of them use it for convenience, right?

>>280772636
Actually, this one doesn't look so bad. I don't know why the rest of the drawings have that horrible kuso face

>>280772603
>strongest member is a shota who has trouble peeing
Is there a single idea that HACKazono won't steal?

>>280772706
What would that change, they are still paying for it and still do surveys, it's even easier digitally so more likely do

>>280772408
>I said sex appeal though? Are you saying Nue sells 25k because of its comedy
Yeah because the highest selling volume didn't have lots of fanservice but still had lots of comedy?

>>280772593
that was announced two weeks ago

>>280772743
>fanservice again despite me having never said that
broski...

>>280772572
>he doesn't know what chinese looks/sounds like
do f/a/gs really...

I won't fall for the ping pong propaganda

>>280772721
okay, that make sense then.

>>280772805
No, probably a mutt

>He still has room to grow.
>Otel is better.

Kazane 2?

What went wrong?

>>280770250
We're trans males. So yes.

people are no longer being gaslighted that otr has good art

a lot of a/non retard in Otr thread trying to blame editor again for the failure. lol. even reddit no longer do that. yeah, kawaguchi will never learn if his fan is dumber than him.

>>280773438
Don't make excuses for Taguchi. Every manga by him should be un-axed and given a second chance.

>>280768216
5ch's sentiments are basically like this
>Plot progression feels aimless: Readers feel the manga is dragging without a clear direction or stakes.
>The Black Parade arc is a low point: The arc is described as boring, with little emotional or narrative payoff.
>Pacing is off: The “final battle” lacks buildup and tension, failing to feel climactic.
>Battles are unengaging: There's little strategy or creativity, just characters trading basic moves.
>Lack of impact: Moments meant to be emotional or epic feel empty or forgettable ("虚無い").
>Terminology is cringey: Terms like “極” (goku/Ultra) and dialogue like “virgin road” come off as try-hard or off-putting.
>Kiyoshi is an uninteresting protagonist: Readers find him bland and unrelatable.
>Astaroth (Demon Lord) isn’t threatening: He lacks presence, strength, and originality.
>Tenchou/Sakaki fell in popularity: His role in the arc made him seem foolish or incompetent, especially for not noticing obvious threats.
>Supporting cast is forgettable: There’s a sense that no character stands out or develops meaningfully.
>Low-quality art: Action scenes lack motion and intensity; poses feel stiff.
>Unintentionally funny or bad visuals: Some panels mimic One Piece poorly; the center color page was mocked for looking awkward.
>Design inconsistency: The visual difference between Astaroth's “normal” and “awakened” forms is negligible.
>Poor sales performance: Kiyoshi consistently underperforms on the Daily Shoseki (POS) rankings.
>Falling behind peers: It's losing to other low-profile series like Astro Royale, Chojo, Shinobi no, Himaten, and even joke series like Roboco.
>Unfit to be a Jump representative: Many feel it doesn’t deserve center color pages or anniversary treatment.
>Discouraging to aspiring creators: Some worry that giving the author a mentorship/judging role sends the wrong message due to the manga’s weak quality and performance.

>>280773500
>ChatGPT

>>280773500
>“Void of heat”: The series lacks excitement or emotional investment.
>No improvement expected: Readers doubt things will get better even if the series runs for 100+ more chapters.
>Reputation of the fanbase: Some fans are mocked for being overly defensive or delusional about the series’ standing.

>>280773438
You are just dumb shit like the rest of editorial department.

>>280757444
0, it's all me

>>280773522
Himacuck literally can't think for himself anymore
Saito keeping Kiyoshi alive is rapidly degrading his mind

kawaguchi cant write basic character. he cant write dynamic character relationship at all. his dialog is trash. so its not just pacing, dumbass. he failed at fundamental level. He have 0 storytelling skill. no amount of editor can fix that. he is that dumb, creative bankrupt

Is it so hard to just do a direct translation, it's not like I disagree but using ChatGPT to "summarize" it makes it look like schizobabble

Why do they think 5ch and 2ch was an actual represent of Japaneses people? It no wonder why they believe in everything they see on the internet.

>>280773740
Yeah, it's not reliable at all but it's funny sometimes and using AI to summarize it gets rid of all the humour

>>280773535

Wonder what he's so worried about

>>280773760
any potential writer will be destroyed by kawaguchi's dogshit paneling

It's the same kind of retard that extrapolate what 4chin says to the rest of the internet.
For an example, compare /kgb/ to the extremely more numerous normalfag sites like xitter or plebbit, they're nothing alike.

Color me surprised

>>280773892
Depends on how it lands these next few chapters.
I'm optimistic though.

>>280774032
What's weird is Usui for plagiarizing Naruto now >>280774019, considering his master is Oda. Maybe he just realized that Oda is a shit writer and he copied the wrong guy.

People who think anything with a vague similarity to anything else has to be an homage or a ripoff or Plagiarism are fucking insufferable and their opinions are automatically invalidated

>>280774021
There's things called making a homage, and there's copying all the shonen tropes and cramming it into a shitty manga with abysmal level of drawing.

>>280774019
>Shinobi-Ten

Fuck your alliance, I'm not reading Himaten.

>>280774063
Hokazono......

>>280773892
No.
>tries action but the author can't draw it
>tries plot but it's a generic fetch quest
>tries adventure but the worldbuilding isn't interesting
I figured it would be shit the moment it went past such an emotionally strong chapter 1 since Chiyou and Kou dynamic isn't strong enough to carry an entire series, it's only good as a one-shot.

>>280774074
Stop acting like you read anything other than Kiyoshit.

>>280773892
so far so good. there is no complain like axebait get so far (like training arc since ch 3). the views and engagement is stead, above some exister even.

>>280774063
This is the case for UEK though. But it's here from the start, including Naruto. Usui unironically operates like old Gainax/Trigger.

>>280774089
hahahahahaha. what a dumbass snowflake contrarian.

Kiyoshi
>tried to rip off One Punch Man but ran out of ideas
>tried to make chuunin exam but TOC plummeted
>cried to Saito and Daddy Oda to raise his TOC rankings
>copied Bleach's Karakura Invasion Arc
>tried to bait fujoshi with homo enemy but his manga is still flopping
>copies NaruHina to bait readers thinking this manga was not gay all along
>still can't surpass 13k copies by volume 4

KEKYPOOO

>>280774140
>the views and engagement is stead, above some exister even.
It fell off the weekly chart (like Otr) but sure let's pretend everything's fine.

>>280774199
Where is Kiyoshi? LMAOOO

>>280773760
I mean his new editor is also shit for letting him make the same mistakes again but Kawaguchi not learning anything from his previous axe is worse

>>280773965
Sure, but I'm somewhat doubted about whatever if 2channcl or 5ch have that much of influential today in Japan.

>>280774063
It's always the narutards because they're entry level as fuck and think it was a pioneer of every trope

What will Usui do after Kiyoshi gets axed? Back working as Oda's assistant?

>>280774251
True but Kiyoshi is 100% plagiarism: the manga

>>280774199
Truly the 3rd best selling manga of Jump: Nue's Exorcist

>>280774261
He'll become a vessel for Oda's soul. Kiyoshi is just a physical test to see if Usui's body can endure a weekly schedule without breaking down so Oda can use it to continue writing One Piece for another 30 years.

>>280774251
To be fair. Hokazono is a known narutard, so 9 times out of 10 it usually is an homage

>>280774308
What will he do if he ran out manga to copy from?

>JUST SHOOT LASER BEAMS AND PUNCH HARDER

There is 0 strategy in Kiyoshit fights. It's just constantly spamming lasers and punches. The Adv CoC thing didn't even add anything to the battle. It's just there so One Piece readers could feel at home.

>>280774261
Probably goes back helping with Akane.

>>280774199
nue 3rd??
and SD is 9??
killblue fan and hater talk about the end, axe and whatnot.
and where is AKANE and WW, Robocco??

>>280774395
KGB is really the only popular series that actually gets talked about online

>>280774199
also himaten that high because 2nd cover celebration.

>>280774418
KDG is slowly being talked more here, it just needs the first boss fight to not be shit

>>280756099 (OP)
Now that we know about all of Hishaku, what went wrong?

>>280774431
>KDG is slowly being talked more here
I mean on the nipernet
One Piece excluded basically no one talks about any other series in jump very much
Hell KGB is so popular it's already been discussed if it should have it's own board on Animanch

>>280774441
>Different stories have different roles and needs for the villains
Shocker, they all are crazy popular so one comment by sakafag #1 of 2 isn't some tale down

>>280774441
I simply cant take Hishaku seriously, what with this and Yura ENTER pose when teleported

>>280774431
Yeah except /a/ isn't relevant
In Japan KDG is already following Otr trajectory and there's very little engagement for a new series that's supposed to be building up an audience

>>280774487
>Super Shota got more fan art and attention on his debut than Nagumo did on his birthday
I can see why they are upset

Official survival chances of 2025 series

Embers - 0%
Star of Beethoven - 0%
NICE PRISON - 40%
Otr of the Flame - 20%
Harukaze Mound - 50%
Kaedegami - 60%
Ekiden Bros - 30%
Ping-Pong Peril - 70%

>>280774539
>NICE PRISON - 40%
>Otr of the Flame - 20%
They got last place in their first year of serialization, that's like a less than 1% survival rate

>>280774487
the problem is sword bearer is too strong compare to sorcerers. while sword bearer most of them is ally. so that inbalance in power is the opposite of demons and akatsuki.

>>280774550
>that's like a less than 1% survival rate
Was Kami looking when Kagurabachi touched rock bottom toc?

>>280773892
if it survives it will be around Sakamoto popularity, hard to reach MHA or JJK level with this kind of setting but I think that's already considered successful for a newbie

>>280774539
I'm being honest with you here, they're all fucking dead.

>>280774539
No CP, last place. the content of the manga. thats 0%.

>>280774563
That's literally what this whole arc is out to "fix"
Bishou are about to get 4 more enchanted blades

>>280774539
ping pong peril fan is the most delusional fan ever. cant wait to see the meltdown. it will glorious to witness.

>>280773892
>Constantly pounding
>Constantly kissing
I need KDG exhibitionism doujin so bad

>>280774606
its already 40 chapters plus and no sword bearer is assassinated.

>>280774089
good action is overrated

>>280774539
Ping Pong surprisingly is the only one with any real chance of surviving
Most newbies do not trend with their second chapter so it's showing good reader retention

>>280774658
the problem is the amount reader its got in the first place. it had less than ekiden bros.

>>280774703
DIgital (free) dont come out till wednesday. The people talking about the manga now either bought physical copies or bought the online subscription. There's a reason why every ch 4 and so on for wsj has dogshit views.

>>280774441
Ngl, I'm not vibing with them outside Hatshaku.
I don't care that they are nice to each other when they look like the bunch of kids with the terrible fashion taste. They don't emanate threat or charm, so the manga has no villains, and when the manga has no villains, it becomes boring.

>>280774199
>Twitter count matters
Most of them are reviews without showing which series they actually vote for

>>280774528
>KDG is already following Otr trajectory
I have only since nips saying the baseball manga is following Otr to the guillotine
KDG has slow pacing so it's closer to KGB trajectory actually

>>280774787
There's another graph that does

>>280774831
I mean in regards to readership, not actual plot pacing
Similarly to Otr's readership, every chapter got less and less engagement until it stopped appearing in the chart altogether so it isnt doing a good job of keeping people hooked

I don’t know why anyone is doubting Harukaze. I’m pretty sure it’s the one that’s going to get shower with cps from this batch. We’ll have to wait for volume 1 to see if its well deserved or if it’s getting the kiyoshi treatment.

>>280775097
Everyone who got hyped by ch 1 already drop the series

>>280775134
That won’t stop them from trying to convince us that its popular.

harsh reminder: if you have never bought a manga volume in your life, you are not the audience

>>280775208
But I have, what now
