No wonder, they knew it was bombing
By this point KGB already had can badges and birthday stuff announced, and the Plush and Letter Opener were announced around this time too

>>281476579
>This issue didn't even tease anniversary events for Ichi like basically every other series ever

ichi cannot be popular anyway. Its audience are DEI individuals which not a single one in japan has.

KGB was just a natural hit, and Ichi wasn't

KGB is literally Aizen of wsj

>>281476655
KGB was astroturfed by westerners. Nothing natural about it, they got bored of it and now it's plummeting

>>281476373
Btw NANA is also coming back. You can bet your ass that one also has an anime adaptation coming.

Talking about Ichi the SHILL? The only one who gives a shit about it at this point is Saito.

>>281476711
>KGB was astroturfed by westerners
Thinking this is pure cope, it did nothing for the series in Japan

Tougo Shiba.....

Go gay
Go stray
That's basic rule in yume world.

Go woke

>>281476579
Is that why saito giving ichi so many color pages? Do they expect to push the sale?

>>281476817
Bakugami's arc was a bore no matter how much saito pretends it did great in the votes.
Over two volumes for THAT is just shit.

>>281476886
Color pages are because shiro basically has nothing to do (nishi does the drafts and there are like seven other assistants.
The rankings and covers are to drive up the sales, however (they failed).

>Color pages are because shiro basically has nothing to do (nishi does the drafts and there are like seven other assistants.
Huh? I thought the color pages were supposed to be given to the author for popular voting?

>>281476931
I that was true BB/SD/KGB would be swamped in them.
The truth is, they use available series and akane and ichi can afford having more.

>>281476949
Basically, the color pages mean nothing if they can't help push the series in TOC ranking.

It's insane to me Liar Game has so many live adaptations but it took like two decades to finally get an anime

Why?

>>281476949
>>281476931
the shinobi duo also get a good rate of CPs
the TOCs and covers/lcp are just saito on gigashill mode thoughbeit

>>281477038
Is that why the new author couldn't do color pages while working on the series? Was it lack of assistance available?

>>281477142
There is no mention. But having an assistant who can drew this much detail weekly is fucking godlike skills.

>>281477799
The initial hype worn down quickly and the series has a quite nasty habit of rushing arcs midway when it's clear that readers aren't interested.

>>281477918
I don't feel any hype around the first release because it doesn't feel original at all.

>>281477950
The hype was because

Watch her anime.

Oh right, the same author did the basketball series before, but again, I don't get excited from Fujimaki's series, tho.

>>281477343
Why didn't he show up in Onsen or Temple if he had such a boner for a fight with Uruha or someone actually strong like Samura?
There was no reason to not let him participate (and most likely secure both blades).
I won't leave you the room for a cope - it's because Hokazono didn't even think about Hokuto's details and background.
Stuff like this makes too many things in this series feel like an afterthought. Dude can't into plotting and adjustments that won't look like an afterthought.
Sad.

it's old data cause it doesnt show 2024 and 2025.

>>281478075
It'd be like 24k
>>281478087
Cause they had a deal with Samura

>>281478087
Because Samura is cooperating with the Hishaku and they trusted he could murder the sword bearers?

>>281478087
samura's deal and it was hiruhiko's job, not hokuto's as stated by yura+when uncle matsu called hokuto - it's implied that they haven't been in contact about mission(and also reason why he sent puppet because nobody told him that there is swordmaster).

>>281478146
Yura didn't know either, samura's shit blindsided him HARD.

>>281478179
Wonder what's gonna happen with the pinky promise, it's still not technically broken yet

>>281478211
Samura the LEGAL LOOPHOLE FINDER.

>>281478228
>Yura invading the Kamunabi fits under him finding the locations for the Sword Bearers
>Samura DID kill Uruha
>Samura isn't in position to kill the other bearers yet
>Samura DID stop the Hishaku from using open blades
>Samura isn't obligated to kill himself yet

Your desperation to win internet number fights like your whole life depended on it is so amusing for me to watch, kek

I so badly wanted to see you both trapped in a caged fight ring and rip each others' throat out, but we all know that you would chicken out, magically becoming polite and civil with each other out of fear for physical confrontations. Disappointing.

>>281478254
Seething, deichifag.

>>281478087
Wasn't it because he lost motivation and non had inform him about existence of other bearers by looking at last chapter. You will clearly see how bored he is.

>>281478329
Yura probably thinks a hotshit like him will jobbed to subaru or loli.

>>281478087
they probably needed kuregumo free earlier for sojo. misaka was probably less guarded than uruha and the others were

>>281478381
Misaka wasn't guarded at all, he was killed on the same night as Kunishige

Only disappointing about the truth is that it wasn't sojo who killed ibuki, so now his feat is in negative.

>>281478417
No one said he did, in fact, we knew it was the hishaku and he isn't one.

When are they going to announce bean plush for ichi? keychain? acrylic?

>200 million USD in japan ALONE AT LEAST are basically confirmed.
Nope. 24.5 billion yen is FAR less than 200 million USD, get your math right. 24.5 billion yen in 2025 isn't $200M, it's about $165M at today's weak yen rate. Back in 2020, it would've been $230M+, but the Japan's economy has been collapsing over the years and the USD bullies pretty much every Asian currency.

>>281478651
>zero reading comprehension
I know English isn't your forte, but basically confirmed means its current prospects confirm it's crossing the 200 million USD in the (close) future.
Just like how it's basically confirmed it's going to reach #2 in the national box office.

>>281478087
They probably picked one at random, they could only stole the swords and killed one wielder before kamunabi lockdown.
Samura had a deal with hishaku, and samuraibro would probably jobbed to him if not using sorcery.
Also out of the 3 swords we known, kuregumo is the offensive one.

>>281478679
Cool backpedal, bro. But your original wording was crystal clear: you stated 24.5B yen as basically 200M USD already. At today's rate, that’s $165M, not $200M. And if you're still banking on Mugen Train-level 40B yen, that's $270M in 2025, not the $365M it was in 2020. The exchange rate tanked, so stop acting like the yen hasn't been getting steamrolled by the dollar.
>>281478818
Not everyone are chronically online on social media. And still waiting for that passport "6'2 feet Denmarkchad", and it never came. I'd gladly show off my passport, but you kept dodging me because all you can do is talk the talk but not walk the walk. You're nothing more but a coward, just like that pathetic ass Michael Jackson villain in Demon Slayer.

Remember how you said it would definitely never reach 30 billion in Japan, and it's going to come out of this week at 26+ billion, with months left at movie theaters.
It's also getting a week limited advance screening at 4dx for the holidays before going nation wide, so even more premium formats for it.

Thread seems awfully quiet today too.

>>281478943
And you still refuse to post your passport. You're nothing more but a bitch.
>>281478982
Nope. I consistently said it wouldn't make ¥40B. 30B would be a stretch, but I also admitted for it to get there it would need a few miracles. Projections are not gospel, they change with real-time variables like holiday boosts, weekend drops/spikes, IMAX/premium pricing and WOM which it did, Obon gave it a boost, like every film.
>It's also getting a week limited advance screening at 4dx for the holidays before going nation wide, so even more premium formats for it.
Which only reinforces what I said. And Jurassic World still keeps its spot on 4DX because it's actually made to be watched in 4DX unlike Demon Slayer. I even hear F1 is coming back to screens in 4DX.

And stop dodging my question. Are you going to post your passport and prove you're actually from Denmark, or is this all just a front and you're really just ashamed of where you're actually from?

>>281479202
>>doing 30 billion easily
>How? With what fucking momentum? Week-to-week declines? Already –30% before Obon. Competition? Jurassic World cut its legs off and took all the IMAX, Dolby, and 4DX
>¥20B after a month =/= ¥30B guaranteed. Box office runs aren't linear, they're front-loaded, especially for anime films. Infinity Castle is already down -32% YoY for that weekend, lost premium formats, and Jurassic World ate into its daily top spot on Aug 9. If legs were Mugen Train-tier, the drop wouldn't be this steep before Obon even starts.
>Even if it finishes at ¥30B (won't happen),
>But I'm not gonna eat crow over your fantasy of ¥25-30B
Don't you just LOVE the archive?

>>281478885
Now we wait for Ichi to lose tsugimanga to some random shojo and completely fail to get a boost

>>281479516
There's also your rock solid prediction of 200-220million WW (it'll do that in Japan alone)

>>281479524
what's worse? losing tsugimanga or winning and become the next UU?

>>281477314

>>281479623
It doubled its sales.

>>281479516
He already said it was a fantasy to be over 15 billion at most
which was already changed from 8 billion max kek

>>281479516
Yup, thanks for the archive. It literally proves I've been consistent: I said 30B would be a stretch and that 25-30B was your fantasy, not mine. I also broke down why: steep -30%+ drops, front-loaded anime runs, loss of premium formats, and Jurassic World cutting into screens. All of that happened, exactly as projected. F1 is also coming back to IMAX/4DX and it actually performed pretty well in Japan. Made $13M.

Anyway, you started with '24.5B yen = basically $200M' (wrong by $35M), then rewrote it after the fact into some fuzzy "basically confirmed" future prediction. If you can't even keep your own currency math straight, maybe stop trying to score points with box office forecasting.

And stop dodging. Post your passport or GTFO. I can share you mine any second, BUT only on the condition that you can post your own with your signature and date posting on /a/.

>>281479760
>He already said it was a fantasy to be over 15 billion at most
What? I even said anything under 10B yen would be a disaster. If anything, I expected it to exceed 10-15B yen.

And stop samefagging and post your passport, Mr. "6'2 Denmarkchad."

>>281479805
>It literally proves I've been consistent
Imagine being so mentally ill you believe your own bullshit when there's literal archives proving the opposite kek


Unfortunate for you, Aniplex is the james cameron of anime. With Kokuhou hitting 10b and demon slayer poised to be 2nd of all time only second to kimetsu itself

>>281479757
Then lost those sales
>>281479623
Becoming the next UU would be shit but ultimately losing is worse because the shills stop flowing in and you meet the same fate as other overprinted veterans

>>281479844
I’m sure random name-dropping and hype slogans will totally change the JPY-USD exchange rate and the film's slowdown trend. The archive shows exactly what I said: ¥30B would be a stretch, ¥25-30B was your fantasy, and 24.5B yen in 2025 is $165M, not $200M. If Aniplex is the James Cameron of anime, then you're the James Cameron of ignoring numbers and dodging when pressed into a corner. That's why your coward ass keeps dodging my question: post your passport, signature included, or GTFO. You're just a bitch like that faggot Michael Jackson villain.

>>281479805

and now you're changing it to 30B kek

>>281479950
What's funny is that it's going to do like 35b at least at this rate even if it does like shit for the rest of its run and does like 1b/week.

>>281479975
Yep, its likely it'll run to new years and get a boost there because of the akaza scene too
It's locked to be 2nd of all time which is insane

Why does he hate kny so much? Is it because it's more CONSISTENT than he is?

>>281479844
>>281479919
>>281479926
If you can't keep your shitposts condensed into ONE post at a time, then don't post on /a/. You keep clipping old posts like TMZ headlines and cutting the context, but the receipts are all there: I said 30B would be a stretch, 25-30B was your fantasy, and current trajectory is ~22-24B. That's consistent, not goalpost-shifting.

And nice try with the '70M–100M USD' thing, you’re mashing different posts from different stages into one quote. The reality is still this: 24.5B yen in 2025 is ~$165M, not $200M, and even if it somehow hit 40B like Mugen Train, that"s $270M in today’s rate, not the $365M it would've been in 2020. Math > your archive fanfiction.

Now shut up and post your passport. You dodging that simple question tells me ALL I need to know about you. You're not from Europe, you're from some third world shithole country. Most likely, you're a South American who's ashamed of being from South America.

Oh, is someone starting to concede?

It's past UU's peak but it would be more about winning tsugi and then going absolutely nowhere with it, possibly losing whatever gains it had from the win

No, motherfucker. Because I'm not the faggot who unironically calls myself a "6'3 feet Denmarkchad" on some African chalkboard forum about Chinese cartoons. I'll post my passport ONLY on the condition that you post YOURS, signature and date you posted on /a/ included. The fact that you keep dodging that simple request tells me all I need to know about you. You're from some third world shithole country somewhere in the South America and you're ashamed of being a South American. Coincidentally, the ones who shit up the internet the most are from LATAM and India.

Shut up and post your passport if you're really from Denmark. I don't care about your brown face, and I never asked of you to show off your ugly ass face. I asked of your passport with your signature and date you posted on /a/. You can't post them, because you're not really from Denmark, much less, Europe. You're from some third world shithole country somewhere in South America and you're ashamed of being a South American. You're the lowest of scum AND you're a coward, lmfao.

Unlike you, I actually lived in Denmark and I talk the language and I can easily prove it. You can't prove shit, so you have to keep up some front to impress some literal who autisric nerds on the internet for cred. You're a coward who backs away when challenged AND you're a self-hating scum from South America. At least /dbs/ shitposters own up that they're from South America and their generals are more or less Mexico central.

Here comes that weird obsession with south americans again.

Yozafam was a exister and got plenty of CPs since Gondaira could deal with it.
Since the period Dr.Stone was running, the CPs are given to the 2nd/3rd tier series in the magazine(not the axebaits and not the main series, like JJK and MHA, where the mangaka can barely do the weekly 20 pages).
Especially author/artist duos.

Demon Slayer Infinity Castle in NY and LA:

In just about 2 hours-ish, Demon Slayer has sold more tickets than Thunderbolts Day-1, with less than half the number of showtimes (which could also be a reason for people to rush)

Wicked had been the last time I saw a movie sell that well in the 20 locations I usually track.
Lincoln Square should add IMAX showings soon. Their Dolby Cinema primetime showings is already sold out.
At this pace, it’s going to make on its opening weekend more than Mugen train made in its entire domestic run.

>>281482934
Fandango Crunchyroll collab site for early access demon Slayer ticket’s crashed within 2 minutes

>>281482934
A lock for surpassing pokemon and being the biggest anime movie in USA history?

>>281480891
remind me where thumbs up chubby giyu is from

KnY going back to Shoseki/Oricon is kinda scary if you think about it. Just shows how almost nothing from 20s in WSJ is worth much, people just go back to older stuff. Same with Slam Dunk resurgence after the animated movie or how Haikyuu volumes constantly chart but WSJ is unable to launch a new popular sports series.

>>281482934
Damn the second movie has a great chance at surpassing 1 billion if it launches in china and JP has better rates.

>>281479754
How much longer

>>281483184
It's not like the ground in the 2010s seemed fertile for a classic spokon or "struggle, tears, and death" battle manga when Haikyuu or KnY grew out of it either though

Nice milkers.

Wasn’t the unprecedented manga boom during the pandemic the only reason sales spiked that high?
Under normal circumstances, this is probably about what single-volume sales usually look like.
I don’t think KnY’s numbers before the anime adaptation were all that different from Kagurabachi or Ich’s.

>>281483287
Twenty more chapters.

>>281483570

even better, it's still trending better than Mugen train was. It's not slowing down as fast and is keeping it's sales. Which means it's on track to beat the first movie

>>281483570
They announced Kimetsu had 2.5 million in circulation at 11 volumes, so Kagurabachi is doing better at least if the print to sold ratio is about the same (I think it has 2.something million at 8 volumes now?). Kimetsu was still growing towards its pre-anime peak then though.

I don't know why you guys take this anti kimetsu hater retard seriously when can't fucking read a simple tweet with two columns

>>281483874
KnY took off like mad when the infinity castle arc started. It wasn't until a month or two after the anime ended that it exploded

>>281483865
It won't, no one expects it to do 40 billion in japan, but it'd be hilarious if it did because it's also crushingh MT internationally (it's tracking to take the top of thailand's bo for somer reason)

It's one of the things that bothers me about JKK as a whole, no one really "gets stronger" beyond Maki until the 11th hour when Gaygqy suddenly remembered that there's no actual way for any of them to beat Sukuna after he beat Goji

>>281483935
I just... keep expecting it to fall off at some point I guess? Jimbo is right there was nothing to watch for six months.
30-35b is perfectly in range however but I don't know if it can actually push through 40b, but having jimbo get an aneursym and cope about usd conversion would be hilarious.

is JJK likely to break the 200m barrier or is that it for post 2000's manga?

>>281484073
I think that's it for manga, in general.
For all his shitposting, jjk is the manga zoomzoom will immediately forget about the moment next big thing appears.

One of kny strengths is the character design. You can see it with that 90's AI shit that got viral few days ago.

Great character design if a must if you want your series to be iconic or popular.

>>281481554
Can't get over the insane quality drop off between Part 1 and Part 2, other than a few neat designs here and there Part 2 is such a slog

Unsurprising, genuinely felt like I was living in a bizarro world seeing people praise that movie

>>281484163
That's a marvel movie on its home turf (USA). Vs an anime movie. its very surprising Imo.

>>281484159
It was some unholy mix of 90s ovas and fushigi yuugi, don't blame me.

Nobody doubts Ichi's survival though. Kiyoshi is just falling upwards because 2025 so far has been awful until the recent batch.

>>281484140
Honestly me too outside of muzan kek
Would have quite a cult like fanbase in the west now if it aired in the 80's though. Since outside japan anime wasn't that popular yet at that time.

>>281484219
I think nezuko looked WAY too uncute, but outside from that and himejima (lierally the same but with shading) it was like damn, imagine how hard would people dicksuck it.

>>281484219
>>281484245
what's weird about anime in the 90s and especially 80s is there was no contrarian shit in the culture
there was mostly fan wars within the anime "my girl vs your girl" best scene in fucking kill la kill but there was no console war esque meltdown shitflinging

>>281484280

>>281484849
>it didn't increase much from mugen
>kept same popularity instead of increasing when mugen was kneecapped by covid (lol)
probably something of the sort
Keep in mind in Japan, sequels almost always decline 50% from their predecessor. or at least 30%. Kimetsu run is a miracle.

>>281483951
It’s obvious that CSM’s huge sales back then were thanks to the manga boom during the pandemic.
At that time, the environment made it easy for series like Tokyo Revengers to blow up in volume sales.
In fact, if you look at CSM’s volume sales history, the periods of sharp growth line up perfectly with the pandemic’s onset, and the drop-offs line up perfectly with its winding down

>>281485240
Kimetsu boom helped mildly popular manga blow up.
JJK and CSM benefited a lot from it.

>>281484140
You can go watch Vampire Hunter D: Bloodlines (despite actually being from the early 2000s) because the AI filter they use was just Kawajirification.

>>281485299
I did anon, I did.

>>281485264
That’s why the CSM movie will probably be a commercial success as well I think.
Most likely, Shueisha and Mappa intentionally scheduled its release right after KnY’s.

>>281483314
>bullying a series on deathdoor to deflect

Thanks to the anime and not the hideous manga. Which again serves to show you how a good studio can make overdesigned crap look good.

Honestly, is it really bad giving 15k WSJ seller an anime? They keep animating J+ series that sell less and don't even have any increase when anime airs.

Knowing Gege, I was fully expecting Yuji to die as well but he survived

>>281486569
I mean, it's a gamble because sometimes it does increase like Oblivion Battery but it's mostly other magazines that animate low selling manga in hopes of something exploding in popularity. WSJ animates big sellers (compared to other manga magazines) while expecting them to become even bigger sellers.

>>281486714
I was honestly expecting no survivors ending

And I'm still waiting on that passport to come. You still haven't posted it yet, because you have nothing. You're both a coward AND a loser.
>>281483779
You're using raw yen numbers as if the exchange rate hasn't imploded. In 2020, Mugen Train's ¥40B was worth $370M USD. In 2025, ¥20B is worth $131M USD. So "4th highest ever" in yen today is basically a mid-tier global earner in dollar terms.
>>281483824
Wrong again, dickhead. Jurassic World is ACTIVELY cutting into Infinity Castle's daily earnings. Pre-Jurassic World, Infinity Castle was around ¥1B/day. Post–Jurassic World (Aug 12-14), Infinity Castle dropped to ¥657M to ¥601M/day while Jurassic was taking ¥278-302M/day i.e. money that would’ve otherwise been available for Infinity Castle in premium screens.vEven a tiny daily cannibalization adds up fast over weeks.
>>281483865
It took Infinity Castle a whole month plus Obon to even hit ¥20B. Mugen Train hit ¥20B in 10 days without a holiday boost, Infinity Castle was slowing down before Obon week bailed it out. Without that, it would have lingered under 20B until mid-August, which is a massive difference in momentum.

>>281486361
If it gets this bad without kaijuu number 8 can't imagine how bad it'll be if spy x family ended

>>281483898
Releasing your shit everywhere isn't a magic ticket. Thailand? Nice for bragging rights, but irrelevant for serious global box office totals. The top markets are the US and China. China's not getting Imfinity Castle, just like they didn't get Mugen Train. That's already a hard cap on upside. US release in September = box office Siberia. You don't drop smash hit, billion dollar hopefuls in dump months unless you're hiding them from competition, which Aniplex are. Taiwan and South Korea are also not the same as they were in 2020. Taiwan, it opened with $5.9M which is actually fine, but Mugen Train made $20M total there, so it's not unprecedented. South Korea, Mugen Train made $15M, but the won is at its weakest since 2009, it's literally one of the worst currencies in the world right now, so even a decent yen total converts to weak USD. Even with East Asia carrying it (they will), this is a $200M-something cap in today's currency reality.

>>281487063
>Mugen Train hit ¥20B in 10 days without a holiday boost,
Still trying to pass his fanfiction as the real deal.

They also need to find replacements for both dandadan and chainsaw man, both are probably closer to their endings than we think

No Obon, no Golden Week, no holiday boost, just a once-in-a-generation opening. Infinity Castle needed a whole month and Obon to crawl there. Cope harder.
>>281487161
Learn currency math before running your mouth. ¥24.5B in 2025 is $164M, not $200M. Even if it magically ties Mugen Train in yen, you're still $80M short in dollars because the yen fell off a cliff while the dollar points and laughs at it. Global total's not cracking $300M without China or a US holiday launch. There's a reason why September is regarded as a dump month (NFL season, school restart, etc).
>>281487223
I don't give a FUCK about what some underage losers have to say on Twitter just as I don't give a FUCK about your third world two-cents.

You just walked into your own trap without even realizing it. Like, holy shit, you're genuinely retarded. Lmfao. If Mugen Train:
>Hit ¥10B in 8 days
>And ¥20B in 24 days
That's still 11 days faster than Infinity Castle, which took about 25 days with the Obon boost. So your "gotcha" actually confirms my point: Infinity Castle is slower in yen pace than Mugen Train despite all the hype and higher ticket prices, and it STILL needed a holiday surge to cross ¥20B.
>>281487731

>>281487763
Nope. ¥24.5B =/= $200M. It's $160M. Learn exchange rates. $300M WW needs ¥32B Japan + $90M intl. If Japan stalls below that, it won't happen. 200-220M from Japan alone = ¥30-33B. That's not a given, that's your stretch goal. Releasing your shit everywhere doesn't matter if the big markets (US in a dump month, no China) aren't positioned to carry it. And excluding Japan, Mugen Train made 54.84M in its original theatrical run not including re-releases that increases its earnings. That's when Demon Slayer had the whole theater to itself.

It's going to be at 26 billion his week, jimbo, it's already guaranteed to become #2 in the national box office even if it just coasts along for the rest of its really long theatrical run.

>Mugen Train made 54.84M in its original theatrical run not including re-releases that increases its earnings. That's when Demon Slayer had the whole theater to itself.

It and that last Captain America film where both flops and it remains to be seen if the new Fantastic Four will even break 500m in general it seems Capeshit is more than likely on it's way out

Even Hatred Magik or whatever didn't seem that dangerous despite him literally setting out to delete an entire city off the face of the Earth, the Majiks just aren't threatening, I assume cause of the constant goofy shit with them

Anon, you have been going at it since early 2024, and I still don't know what you're implying by posting this image.

Insane how WW's second cour just became absolutely non existent in both Japan and overseas
Although I blame that on the manga itself for being too filler-ish. Literally barely anything happens and the magic aspect of the series isn't notable enough for to pass as a fantasy show

Only now did I notice this one. And again, I see the retard is STILL talking to himself and NOT posting his passport. Common bait-and-switch tactic from third worlders across South America and India.

Lol. Infinity Castle outselling Thunderbolts in 2 hours with half the showtimes? Cute anecdote, but it's a drop in the bucket. 20 locations don't make a $50M weekend, you math-challenged retard. You’)'d need $110,000 per theater across 452 screens, which means every IMAX and Dolby seat sold out three days straight in a September dump month with school starting and NFL hogging attention, you third world inbred. Mugen Train took $49.5M over months in 2020's ghost-town theaters. Infinity Castle is bleeding legs in Japan (-40% to ¥601M daily) because Jurassic World Rebirth's ¥2.4B in 8 days is eating its lunch. F1 made $13M in Japan and it's coming back to IMAX/4DX to get a slice of that pie too. Your 'more than Mugen Train domestic in one weekend' is fanfiction, not forecasting. A $20-30M opening is generous, fitting my $250-300M total, while your $200M Japan solo dream is still $35M off at ¥24.5B ($165M). Keep clutching those early sales like a security blanket and stick to clipping archives; the numbers don't lie, but your hype sure does.

he says that's what made UU unpopular because of the ugly characters plus the non consensual groping
he's been hating on UU for ages, so much so the meme was that anytime he posted he would extend UU by another week. it took about two years of him doomposting the manga before it ended

literally the anti kgb schizo of yore only even more pathetic because he was literally the only person talking about the manga

You, you do understand you've just bumped an extra 50 million just so you won't be wrong, right?

This OP singlehandedly saved this anime from being a complete flop.
but then it lies to you that the real show won't look like this.

>>281489346
The OP is kind of a bait and switch, the show is nothing like it

>>281489473
Nope, I made a mistake and was meant to say around $200M, which is why I deleted my original post. I'm standing by these numbers. It'd do Film Red numbers, in part because no China means it reaches a hard ceiling and September is a dump month in America and a huge part of the Western world. It'll do strongly in France, I suspect because France has a strong affinity for anime (honorary Japanese).

>>281489346
At least it gave us one of the best WSJ openings ever.

>>281489346
It'll be a while before we get to the next serious arc as well.

if it ever gets a season 2 anyway, I fear this one ain't getting it considering the lack of manga boost

>>281489538
You can post it, I still hold on to Film Red numbers, maybe slightly above it by having the novelty of being a canonical sequel while Film Red is filler and mostly carried by Gear 5, Shanks and Ado.

>>281489538

almost feeling pity for him at this point

You know WSJ is cooked when the YOASOBI OP barely gets any views compared to the others

We are so fucking doomed.

>>281485896
I think they're good, especially Rengoku.
These days, most characters have such plain designs that, when reduced to silhouettes, they’re indistinguishable from one another, lacking any real distinctive traits or individuality. It really makes me question whether the Jump editorial department is still upholding its traditional rules.

>>281489788
It has 7 million views though? That's 3x more than what Sakamoto could accomplish.

>>281488192
the saito one or the akanebanashi anime one because for some stupid reason they're at the same time

>>281489817
JJK did really damn well despite having the most basic of designs though

Yuji might've been mistaken for some other hotblooded shonen
Megumi too. His hair in a silhouette could be mistaken for Touma
Gojo probably not.
Nobara is already cloned off to Shoko. and it's not helping

>>281489740
>>281489346
WW's gag and drama scenes both just lack the impact of the author's prior works, and he really can't do action.

>>281489919
I hate using this word but Shinohara is the definition of MID
But somehow manage to get by. Like Sorachi did everything with just one manga but Shinohara is doing three and they're all considered forgettable.

>>281489817
Bleach characters are indistinguishable

>>281489875
wait, nevermind, they're at two different times now but one is right after the other in different rooms so it'll be a pain to attend both

also the saito panel overlaps with the yugioh 25th anniversary panel which is dumb too

What makes KnY’s character design stand out isn’t only the silhouettes but the patterns too.
You can instantly tell who a character is just from their clothing pattern alone. That’s not only great for making them more recognizable to readers, but it’s also a huge plus when it comes to merchandising.

>>281489880
Gojo as a silhouette would be mistaken for Kakashi, let's be real

>>281490111
Giyuu's feel like experimental art, so kino

>>281490089
So you should always go for the youngest ones?

>>281490111
I wonder if its intentional or just stroke of genius from gotouge
Can't imagine all kny characters wearing that black corps outfit only. That'd have been lame

>>281489965
Ichigo doesn’t really have any standout visual traits on his own, which is exactly why he’s lugging around that massive sword — it’s a way to make him visually distinct.
Without creative touches like that to make a character’s outline pop, kids — who make up the core Jump readership — just won’t remember them.

>>281490217
Yea and that's a problem, any character wearing a robe and carries a big sword can be mistaken for ichigo.

why did kimetsu official coloring start at vol 16 and stopped at 23?

>>281489668
Yes, retard. A mistake, I posted on my phone right now as we speak, lmao. I hold on to my prediction $200-250M-something. Slightly above Film Red for actually being canon.

>>281490217
>>281490242
The hair? not many character share his hairstyle in his series

>>281490111
Kimetsu character design patterns also don't look out of place in a store
Naruto also has the akatsuki.

>>281490291
>Slightly above Film Red for actually being canon.
I mean, you do realize it's 10 million away, just with japan alone, which means it's already above film red because it's above 10 million international, right?

Doesn't this bot have his own thread?

>>281490378
Yep, it's getting on the way of consolewarfaggot spamming his shitty pics over and over again.

>>281490175
Using distinctive kimono patterns to leave an impression is actually a traditional Japanese marketing technique that goes back to the Shinsengumi in the 19th century.
That said, giving each character their own unique pattern might’ve been Gotouge’s own idea.

JJK's silhouettes are easy enough if they do poses. Yuji's punch fight pose, Megumi's handsigns, Gojo's domain expansion pose, Nobara's hammer

>>281489669
>its official
cringe

>>281490536
>they need to pose
Yeah, that's an issue. Tanjirou with his haori+nezukobox+earrings which is his base design is easy to guess.

>>281490638
Crunchyroll creates these accounts and hires one indian for pennies an hour to manage 10 accounts

>>281490217
This is also one of the reasons why JRPG characters often carry huge weapons.
A big weapon is a simple but effective way to give a character’s silhouette some individuality.
Same deal with Guts from Berserk, his silhouette looks instantly recognizable thanks to the Dragonslayer.

>>281490435
Demon Slayer has some Rorouni Kenshin inspiration

Is Chihiro's school shooter outfit emblematic?

>>281490839
Gintoki doesn’t really have a particularly distinctive silhouette, even with his hairstyle.
He’s even made a few sarcastic jokes himself about how his appearance goes against that traditional "Jump rule".

>>281489880
In a way, JJK is a maverick — it broke the rules and still managed to become a hit.
This might be around the point when the Jump readership started to change. Sakamoto Days also has characters with pretty flat silhouettes, yet it’s doing well. It feels like there’s been a market shift where readers no longer demand extremely eccentric character designs.

Nah, your calculator's on vacation. Infinity Castle is at ¥24.5B ($165M) in Japan plus $5.9M internationally from Taiwan plus 616K from Thailand based on pre-orders ($171.5M total), and Film Red hit $246.5M ($138.6M Japan, $107.9M international). That's a $95.9M gap, not a '10 million away' fairy tale. Your '10M international' pullout of ass figure doesn't magically make it 'already above', it’s still eclipsed by Film Red's global haul. I'm holding at around $200-240M (realistic), maybe $250M (optimistic), slightly above Film Red if the US and international don't choke (no China and September dump month means it'll hit a hard ceiling). Until then, Film Red's $246.5M keeps laughing at your premature victory lap. Stick to fanboy dreams, faggot. The numbers say you're still clutching straws, not tickets. Check your archives again, my predictions so far has been bullseye. I was even right about Jurassic World eating up its daily earnings. F1 also comes back and it actually performed well in Japan, so it'll also cut down on Demon Slayer's earnings. It doesn't need to beat it, nor does Jurassic. They just need to exist and take up screenings.

>>281492537
Can you actually check the pic of the post you replied to, with film red's box office?

No, dickhead. I gave ¥15-20B as a starting range, adjusted upward with Obon's boost to ¥24.5B ($165M), and called ¥30B a stretch, ¥40B your fantasy. That's called adapting to data, not changing forecasts, unlike your '200+ million USD from Japan' hallucination.
¥24.5B is $165M, not $200M. It ¥7.5B more ($50M) to hit ¥32B ($216M) and beat Your Name's ¥25.17B. With Jurassic World's ¥2.4B in 8 days, that -30% drop to ¥601M daily isn't easy, it's a miracle stretch. F1 is also coming back to IMAX/4DX, and it actually performed well in Japan for a foreign film, rakikg in $13M. My $200-240M still holds, slightly above Film Red's $246.5M if international doesn't choke. Your several months pipe dream ignores saturation. Mugen Train's ¥40.43B had 2020's empty theaters, not 2025's brawl.

Yes Jeremy, it did 135 million USD at the japanese box office, 40 million extra worldwide. It's the exact same failure you had with MHA's box office because you don't seem to be able to understand easy as fuck charts.

And now we go back to
>F1 is also coming back to IMAX/4DX, and it actually performed well in Japan for a foreign film
Kimetsu is literally getting extra showings, right now, and at the end of the month from them that weren't even in the cards.
>. Your several months pipe dream ignores saturation.
Now you remember conan movie is STILL being shown in cinemas.

>>281490111
Nobody outside of weebs can even name any of Demon Slayer's characters besides maybe Nezuko due to her meme status. Dragon Ball, One Piece and Naruto pops up everywhere in pop culture and they're practically synonymous with anime, not just because of their distinctive character designs but because they were larger-than-life figures that they bordered on mythological. Dragon Ball inspired pro athletes from wrestlers, boxers and MMA fighters. Paris Saint Germain held up a massive banner for Goku and Shenron for a match. One Piece had olympic athletes doing poses straight out from the show and Luffy is the second anime character to ever be in Macy's Thanksgiving parade, Goku was the first.

Naruto also has both actors and pro athletes post Sharingan edits of themselves on their Instagram for millions to see. Yes, you read that right, the Sharingan is so iconic even actors and pro athletes make Instagram posts with millions of likes about it. Naruto is also on Fortnite, as is Dragon Ball and now One Piece is next.

That's how a character becomes "iconic", Demon Slayer has no iconic characters, because they have zero charisma. They're mainly carried by the animation and voice acting who breathed into these otherwise bland characters the same Toei Animation gave life to Saint Seiya.

I'd say as much, out every character that came out from the post-Big 3 era, the only character that will be remembered for a very long time and he's one I can actually say can comfortably sit right next to Goku, Superman and Darth Vader is... Gojo. His design is bland and he wears nothing but all-black, but he's carried solely by his charisma which makes or breaks a character into the cultural zeitgeist. Even after JJK ended half a year ago, I still see JJK brainrot across mediums. I won't assess the story of JJK as I feel like everything that could be said about it, has already been said. But Gege struck gold with that character.

Kimetsu won and you're coping

>>281493111
>you could ask a random little girl and there's a higher chance of her knowing the name of KnY characters than Dragon Ball or One Piece.
Lolno. Everyone knows who Goku is, to the point that he's become his own mythology the same way everyone knows who Darth Vader is, even people who don't watch Star Wars. You can't ask a random little girl who any of these fuckwits are in Demon Slayer unless you're already a fan of the show. That's what iconic means. That you transcend your own. Goku is bigger than anime at this point, Demon Slayer is stuck in the anime ghetto.

The highest-grossing films of all time have been social phenomena of their time,
such as Titanic and Spirited Away.
However, the public is quick to get excited and quick to lose interest, and of course, these social phenomena do not last.
Director James Cameron's next film and director Hayao Miyazaki's next film were not
able to monopolize the top and second places in box office history

. The day is approaching when the Japanese, who are quick to get excited and quick to lose interest, will be able to achieve this historic feat, which has lasted for 128 years.

Kimetsu is the only one to achieve it in 128 years

No the reason why you can't talk about JJK is because you don't understand it on a fundamental level
>Yuta's cleave being weaker than Sukuna's is a power scaling issue!!!
To act like you understand any of these series and then go on to have a take as fundamentally retarded as that one shows that you either haven't read JJK or you are a total fucking moron
Then again getting pummeled by Kimetsuchads for 6 consecutive years is transparent enough proof anyways

>>281493171
In Japan only. Meanwhile, for the rest of the world, they don't give a shit because they're not as autistic as the Japanese are. And Avatar still consistently makes billions, the best Japan could do was make half a billion from a global trauma.

Shut the fuck up, mutt. Charisma is EVERYTHING. They MAKE or BREAK a character into the cultural zeitgeist. And even if we don't count charisma, none of that changes that nobody outside of weebs can even name any of these "characters".

DB, OP and Naruto pops up everywhere in pop culture and they're pretty much synonymous with anime. Vegeta inspired pro athletes from wrestlers, boxers and MMA fighters. Paris Saint Germain held up a massive banner for Goku and Shenron for a match. One Piece had Olympic athletes giving shout-outs to the show. And now, even JJK gets shout-outs from Oympic athletes and musicians. The NFL, the biggest sporting event in the US, collaborated and promoted JJK. THAT'S how a character becomes iconic, KnY has no iconic characters. It has some good animation and voice acting carrying otherwise bland characters.

All that cope yet kimetsu still mogs hard

>>281493331
Online chatter about a series HAS NEVER MATTERED, tell me 1 series that had shit views like ppp that was able to sell well upon volume release thanks to online discussion

>>281493355
So we can't count kimetsu collaborating with the MLB now Jeremy?
You do realize more people are going to watch the kimetsu movie than literally any of those, right?

Not a single person in Japan under the age of 30 knows dragon ball exists

>>281493365
Nue is the most obvious example lmfao

>>281493398
>series that is now a 20k seller and in any other era would have long since been axed

Not looking good PPPsissies

>>281493355
>Muh basketball
And you claim to be European?

>>281493415
>in any other era
And what era are we in now genius

>>281493398
But nue had good views? Like, x3 of ppp and a shitton of memes.

Kimetsu is the most popular and greatest of all time
its also the most iconic
you can cope but that is reality
also the movie will be the second grossing in Japan of all time. Doing history once again
All facts you'll have to face and think about every day

Can anyone post the J+ views of nue so this faggot can shut the fuck up about ppp?

>>281493362
JJK mogs it by holding Guinness World Record as the most popular anime in the world. One Piece mogs it by holding Guinness World Record for being the best selling manga in history. Naruto mogs it by being the most watched anime on Netflix. And Dragon Ball mogs it for being the most influential.

When all is said and done and the anime finally ends, Demon Slayer is just another Attack on Titan. It left a lot of noise, but left no impact.

No one cares about gay-ass baseball, not even Americans. You can watch so many football games for free without cable. Baseball hasn't been free since the 90s and viewership has declined over the years. Helps a lot that the NFL has all these halftime shows.

>>281493505
Kimetsu mogs them all by having the biggest movie, biggest manga in terms of volume per sales, biggest BD sales , biggest TV ratings, breaking records across many countries

Why is Hokazono the only WSJ Mangaka physically attending animeNYC
Akane has like its first proper anime showing there and neither of its authors are going?

Reminder this African anti kny schizo thinks Togashi doesn't own Hunter x Hunter and its actually a rumor and that Shueisha actually owns Hunter x Hunter

kek

tcb released the new kgb chapter
they probably realized it's a big series so they started translating it before the official version

>>281493548
>rumor
What? You can literally look at copyright and see it's always just Togashi, even for YYH

>>281493521
>biggest movie
Thanks to Covid.
>biggest manga in terms of volume per sales
No one cares. It's a short manga, it sold 220M, divide that by 23 and you get 9.5M. Still doesn't hold the Guinness World, One Piece holds it.
>biggest BD sales
No one cares. BD sales have declined in being a major revenue stream.
>biggest TV ratings
Dragon Ball also holds that record. And nobody cares, streaming is king.
>breaking records across many countries
Naruto already broke them. And the anime and manga ended 10 ysars ago.

>>281493544
Isn't Kaku is going there with Takeru too?

>>281493355
I'm just glad whenever I point the cleave example out you have to resort to deflection. Some part of you is terrified at being called out for it because you KNOW you're indefensibly wrong so you don't even engage with it

>b-b-ut n-n-none cares as he seethes trying to make himself believe his own bullshit
Kimetsu just won. Past, Present and future

>>281493613
He doesn't have a series in WSJ and he's going there for his J+ series

>>281493609
>>281493637
Yes he's this retarded. Dude couldn't read a simple two column tweet for such a "box office expert". He'll deny anything he doesn't like such as ToGODshi having the best contract in the industry history.
He also thinks Gotouge got nothing from the kimetsu manga and is basically poor

>>281493485
No takers? I rest my case then

Fresh reprints for Kimetsu

>>281493639
>One Piece
Best-selling manga in history and it will forever stay that way. Holds Guinness World Record that only got beaten... by One Piece itself.
>JJK
Most popular anime in the world and has been that way since 2023. Holds Guinness World Record that only got beaten... by JJK itself.
>Naruto
Most watched anime on Netflix. Anime ended 10 years ago, manga ended 10 years ago and it continues to reign supreme.
>Dragon Ball
The Muhammad Ali of anime/manga. The greatest.
>Demon Slayer
An industry plant.

>>281493544
Nakano told them not to show up.
>Remember, no Japanese.

>>281493687
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO BURN THESE VOLUMES NOW @SHUEISHA DO SOMETHING

>>281493720
Nah Kimetsu mogs all to death

>>281493687
>the final cover with tangerine closing his eyes and not showing his arm
It's still perfect after all these years.

>>281493721
Considering the current fascist regime, kinda shocked they are still coming

>>281493725
Deez nutz mogs you to death

>>281493745
get mogged

>>281493505
Why would a supposed European such as yourself care at all about American sports?

>>281493745
He's right, KNY fight scenes were an utter incomprehensible mess of thick speed lines

>Retard thinks Dragon ball is le problematic and sexist
>Dickrides it against kimetsu and one piece and jjk 24/7 (which all mog it)
>Comes here on 4chan. the raciest cesspool of the internet
How does his mind work?

>>281493758
Get deez nutz instead how bout that

No matter how much you cry, Reality won't change
Kimetsu the mogger will mog. you will continue to cry
KEKARO

>>281493788
I can praise Dragon Ball and literally suck on Toriyama's cock as much as I'd like same way I can criticize and shit on him. That's what being a healthy fan means.

If it means I can use Dragon Ball to take jabs at Demon Slayer's DOGSHIT art, I absolutely will.

>>281493836
4chan is problematic and sexist and racist, why do you even come here?

>>281493810
No matter how much you cry, deez nutz won't change
Deez nutz the mogger will mog. you will continue to cry as I shove deez nutz down your mom's throat

Torishima > some third world monkey
Nakano > some third world monkey

>>281493863
Kimetsu won
owari da

>>281493872
Deez nutz won
Torishima coming down just to say the Demon Slayer manga is ass is the icing on the cake, like God coming down just to give you cocksuckers a golden middle finger lmfao

>>281493849
I posted long before any of you faggots, lmfao. I'd keep posting here because I can.

>>281493913
Kimetsu the greatest to ever happen to humans has won
you can cope but that is the truth
It's god's gift to this world
especially when it mind breaks you KEK

>>281492893
>You failed to account for a fucking holiday RETARD.
I called Obon a potential boost months ago, you illiterate dipshit. ¥24.5B ($165M) proves I adapted, not coped, while your brain's still stuck on '¥40B Nippon!!' fanfiction. ¥24.5B isn't $135M, you chart-blind moron. It's $165M at 148 yen/USD, and your '40M extra worldwide' pullout-of-ass number doesn't magically hit Film Red's $246.5M. Math isn't your strong suit. Try a calculator, not a crystal ball.
>>281493975
Torishima > some third world monkey
Wanna know why? Because he's the man who discovered Toriyama and helped make Dragon Ball. Without that man, Dragon Ball would end with Pilaf and YYH, HxH, One Piece, Naruto, Bleach and so many other shounen wouldn't exist
That includes your badly drawn, poorly written favorite manga Demon Slayer
No Torishima, no Dragon Ball, no Demon Slayer

Torishima saying your favorite manga is ass is the icing on the cake. Your third world cope don't matter when the man who made Dragon Ball calls it ass lmfao

>>281494045
>all the legendary authors that recommended kimetsu early on
>vs some seething old man that would have tanked dragon ball and shat on SNK (the greatest plot focused manga that mogs dragon slop) and wants more dogshit like boruto and dragon ball super
HMMMM. Kimetsu won

>>281493544
Because its an excuse to take a vacation, Akane mangaka is a workaholic after working with Oda

>>281494103
>"legendary authors"
A hack who will never finish his manga in his lifetime, YYH and HxH are BOTH incomplete (Togashi). Another hack who got famous off of a porn game and his writing is SO bad it made Ian McKellen cringe (Nasu). A hack who spent 40 years of his career writing the same unfunny jokes and actually has a tranny in his manga (Akimoto). Some samuraislop (whoever made Shigurui or whatever). And a shotacon (Tsukushi).

I'd take Torishima any day of the week over any of these one-trick pony hacks hyping up another one-trick pony hack.
>shat on SNK
Based. SnK is just another slop that left a lot of noise, has fans going aperitif over it and when all is said and done, it left no impact. SnK was always nothing more but a work some good-for-nothing bullied kid wrote to vent his anger.

>>281494045
Oh no! Torishima said THAT? That's it for Kimetsu guys! Cancel the movies, cancel the manga reprints. Its over!

>>281494240
Torishima is a shotacon too. Why do you think he wanted Goku to stay a little boy?

>>281494240
SNK mogs whatever slop you enjoy to hell and back

>>281494362
Dragon Ball >> Shitgeki
Dragon Ball >> Kimeshit

Any retard can write a story full of "muh themes" and "muh symbolism", it takes a true master to create a work of no substance but succeeds in entertaining you (which a manga should do, you're drawing a comic for 12 year olds), which is why Dragon Ball has god-tier staying power

Isayama was a shut-in nerd who's the equivalent of a 17-year-old child who just started out reading Nietzsche and thinks he's worldly now

Meanwhile, Torishima didn't read manga unlike the other hacks in the industry, he read French literature like Stendhal and Proust, philosophers like Plato and Hume, and classic Hollywood movies. Which also explains his indifference towards manga. Dragon Ball is a good manga because it's made by people who didn't give a shit about manga. Toriyama also didn't give a shit about manga and grew up not reading them (besides Tezuka who of course is also god-tier). SnK is a bad manga because it preaches and is written by a pseudo intellectual who likes smelling his own farts and Demon Slayer is a bad manga because it's made by someone who only watched anime and read manga and nothing else. Which is why you can find all these "X obligatory tropes" and the characters are manga stereotypes

>>281494591
SNK and Kimetsu mog
didn't read

>>281494591
Not reading all that. Kimetsu won.
Verification nigh required.

>>281494654
>>281494659
Dragon Ball > Shitgeki
Dragon Ball > Kimeshit

See how Shitgeki gets immediately memoryholed by NPCs the moment the manga ended and Kimeshit when there's no anime?

Dragon Ball will outlive them AND outlive your bloodline lmfao. And it's made by two geniuses who didn't give a shit about manga
