I thought it was pretty generic to be honest.
Yeah, I think I'll watch the drama, too.

Oh shit! I was wondering how they would avoid Koon finding out about Viole, but the end looks like it may not have avoided it.

So what's up in this thread? Did I miss anything good?
Viz announced that next week they'll start running World Trigger, WSJ's newest series. Making it the first series to start in Japan and the USA at the same time. That's pretty big news.
It will probably be cancelled considering the Viz Jump curse, but we'll see.

Thought Big 3 was coming early?

Can someone fill me in on the "curse"?
The Shonen Jump Alpha got series like Sensei No Bulge or Takamagahara which have been cancelled a few weeks after.
They also have Cross Manage and this series is not popular in the japanese WSJ.

Of the three series picked up by weekly shonen jump (alpha) from their debut in JPN at chp 1
Takamagahara
Barrage
Were ended in Japan before reaching 20 chapters.
So far Cross Manage is struggling to not get cancelled (but will cross 20 chapters).
Rurouni Kenshin: Restoration also started at chp 1 here and in JPN...but is not techinically a weekly shonen jump title though it is still running and will have print volumes released starting this summer.
The Alpha has been dropped. It's now just "Weekly Shonen Jump". I call it "Weekly Shonen Jump USA" to avoid confusion with the original magazine.
As for the curse, it hasn't been broken yet. It's very likely Cross Manage is the next to go.

I was told it was. Might be tonight. Dude's not around so I can't ask.
Dammit, Ignis. It's probably tonight anyway. Is it just spoilers?
In Japan, the first sentence here might not necessarily be related to the second!

No if it does come early it'll be the whole shebang.

Black Cat is meh. I love Shaman King but it's messy as hell.

A bit too late I already started reading Black Cat, first chapter was pretty cool but I'll give more impressions when I finish the first volume.

To be fair the last time I remember an African American character being treated tastefully was in The One, where he was just the gay best friend.

Also it bothers me that the first guess I made at the 'mystery' this chapter was the right answer, even if it was blindingly obvious.

Kiss her already.
Odds are they'll do the deed first, at the rate they're going anyway...

Black Cat Volume 1
Train is a really fun character to follow, Sven plays a good straight man to his zany antics. I can't help but get a Cowboy Bebop feel from this series set up which I mean if you're going to copy something I guess Bebop isn't a bad template to copy/paste. Eve and Rinslet haven't done enough yet for me to make a solid opinion on yet but I do like they're designs and set ups.

He guys in case we didn't make Iori seem OP, here you go! I can't remember if he's ever lost in a fight really. I know he's been outnumbered and had to stand down but wow.

Does Ken Akamatsu make Manga anymore? I've lost track of him after Negima! Was flipping through one of my old Love Hina copies and was wondering if he made any new series.
On that note got my copies of Zombiepowder in the mail. Man Kubo why did you get depressed and had it canceled? It was really good too.

Didn't he stop Negima because of the new copyright laws or something? If that was the case, it's unlikely that he started anything new.

Black Cat Volume 2
This really is Bebop the manga lol it's still really enjoyable though. Creed seems like an interesting and complex character and his strange obsession with Train makes him incredibly dangerous. Seems like a 3 way battle between Creed's group, Chronus' numbers, and our heroes will eventually happen later on in the series which should be awesome.

No it's not reasonable that they'd be into each other.
I read it actually. But Rosario's change of genre felt much more abrupt and off.
Hahaha, well, all the girls want the same MC = qualifies for a Harem to me.
Yes of course in the end it's like this, but it never develop into anything related to him wanting to get "into each other" with Rukawa.

Two cannibals are eating a clown. One turns to the other and says "does something taste funny to you?"
No, he just quit Kodansha over their treatment of someone else. If that law really mattered Super Interesting Darkness would be on the chopping block way before Negima

When have you ever needed a reason?
I'm curious, what's the full story on this?
I think that's indeed the case.
That and a Kodansha law that made the licenses of the manga being owned by Kodansha, not the author, or something like that.

I was just told that Jump is indeed coming late tonight America time.
