Big One is as harmless as a lamb. He's angel soft, funny too.

He might be funny, if you laugh at him, but otherwise, no.

'Harmless' is something I would use for DTL, though he occasionally slips up too.
Big One... not really.
Seems like the rumor might be true after all.
Time skip could be interesting.
I don't know if it's because I've been away so long from manga but Nisekoi has been enjoyable.

Beards can never be right, I refuse to believe.
That's better, but it could be lower.
Depending on how many series are starting, Cross Manage might survive another round of elimination.
Rumor looking more and more true but this sets up a pretty interesting ending.
I hate you SO MUCH right now.
Only because kids didn't realise that Goku andc Luffy AREN'T in it every week.

Wait. They made the anime to push the manga sales and then did a DBZ + OP anime cross over to push the anime?
Can't they just pick another manga to replace one of the big three?
If it makes you feel any better, it won't arrive till next Wednesday or so.

Jump Double Issue #22/23 Information
END: Medaka Box (Center Colour)
Pick what? Shueisha hasn't had a battle manga with staying power in AGES. Sensei no Bulge/BARRAGE died as soon as it began. Hungry Joker is circling the drain. Magico only lasted a year. Beelzebub is at its worst in battle arcs and Medaka Box is ending. There's nothing else.

My favorite pokemon ships are PreciousMetalShipping, PalletShipping and SacredShipping.
Thanks, I guess.
So world trigger is 12th of 22? Guess its guaranteed to last a year and build up, its getting a nice flow of fanarts, so I guess its liked by lots of people. Anyway, I love it.
Give it another year or so and Assassination Classroom could have a proper Gintama-esque gag anime.
Unless Cerebus syndrome hits it hard and it becomes a battle manga. Considering recent events, that part seems to be set-up.

At this rate, Shueisha will moneyhat Kubo and Kishi to write sequels the second Bleach and Naruto end.
just glanced through hungry joker 21
i'd say it'll end in the next chapter
too bad, i remember the one shot was pretty good, but tbh even chapter 1 it wasn't that good
world trigger though, it has a lot more potential, just hope to god we can get something that lasts a few years at the least

When is the last time an author had a successful/popular jump series, then made another manga for Jump that was just as or even more popular? Toriyama with Slump -> Dragon Ball and the guy who does JoJo if you consider each part a sequel
Still a rumor at the moment. I don't think they or more specifically Ohba would want to make a battle shonen but I would certainly see them try.
Wasn't there a time HunterxHunter was bigger than YuYuHakusho? And Dragonball is WAY bigger than Dr. Slump.

I thought the rumor was the enigma writer was doing something new.

Herp de derp forgot about yyh-HxH -.- lol and yes I already mentioned dragon ball. I also am reminded of Buso Renkin which was a flop by comparison. I guess what I'm asking is historically do authors usually come back to jump and make a better second series or a worse second series?

But replacing Bleach isn't enough, when Naruto is going to end soon.

Honestly it's probably better to have a wide variety of manga selling bleach or better numbers to a wider audience then another big shonen fight series selling to most of the already established op/naruto/bleach fans
There are examples for both cases so I don't think you can make a general statement here.

Gotcha thanks, and :'( this will be the first time I experience live a manga series finishing.
Nobunaga no Chef 8-15
Goddess of the Forge? What a convenient excuse to not have Ken and Natsu get together. I wonder who Akechi Mitsuhide is and what's his relation to Nobunaga in real life. I suppose I can just look him up on Wikipedia but that will ruin the fun.

HXH does better than YYH. It helps that there are more HXH volumes than YYH volumes already and each sold around 1 mil or more.
BTW isn't Kishi writing a new manga for SQ since he said that in the author's comment section? I just hope its better than Naruto.
Naruto looks to seriously end in the next 6 months unless something happens.

What? No, seriously what? I never thought we would jump back into the present (future?) so early in the manga. I was actually hoping the time travel bullshit doesn't get brought up till the end of the story. I'm not sure if it's really a good idea to start jumping back and forth between the past and the present day. And I really hope we don't spend that much time explaining time travel mechanics in this world cause it has no relevance to the story. At the very least this explains why the cover features both Aki and Hiro being friendly.
Maybe I just started noticing this now, but Kubo is utilizing those face reactions too well. They are getting far more expressive and crazy by the chapter.
Certainly beats learning about history through Sengoku Collection

Of course that would be better, but the way people here talk about Shueisha, it seems like they're much like game publishers, who think they have to put out games that make CoD numbers.

I remember, liked and wanted it serialized. But then somebody itt told me about that mafia manga called "Mario" he was planning and now I want that.
I'd disagree. A magazine full of Bleach level works isn't going to sell the numbers that Jump currently works and the newer series will struggle from reduced exposure. Ideally you want a few Naruto-level works (and hopefully a DB/OP megahit) to draw people into reading the magazine and promote the "lesser" manga. A magazine full of Bleach level stuff doesn't have a big draw that the last 25 years of Jump have shown is really important.
Everyone looked like they were from Naruto...

You could say the same about almost every Toriyama art work that isn't DB.
