ToC comments:
well, both Bleach and Gintama being absent is surprising.
Beelzebub: it has really risen
Shokugeki no Soma: let the Double Arts begin :D
there is nothing particularly unusual about the bottom 5, although I would like to see Hungry Joker higher.

I see no problems with SnS pulling a double arts. Double Arts was a damn good manga! As a reader I'd rather have 20ish chapters of gold rather than 1093 chapters of... Naru...shi...poor quality manga

[flipthepage]

It's one of the best cancelled titles, true, but man did it all start going wrong once it was clear Naoshi didn't know where he was going anymore. I'd rather that if something failed it did so with a big more of a pleasant feeling than what happened there.

Not that I think SnS will pull a double arts, though.

mm. right up there in my book with Koisome Momiji, though Double Arts had much more potential than Momiji had.

On a related note, I do wish Jump had a slot for manga that is only PLANNED to last for 26 chapters or something like that. A slot that something really good can be put in and when it's done it's done and ending after 26 chapters wouldn't look as bad. Hell even a 3-5 chapter slot...

I actually think Koisome did better with its ending, in that it actually worked, but yeah, I hold those two in the same esteem, with maybe Super Dog Rilienthal just below them with its solid art (as such I'm chuffed that World Trigger's both out and licensed this week).

The short story slot is totally a thing I wish existed again. So many old Jump manga are three or so weeks long, like Rickshaw Man and stuff, and Koganeiro revived that spirit (suitably for a bit of WSJ propaganda, to be in the classic vein as such). It'd mean we'd get a lot more relaxed short titles, that just focus on telling a complete tale. The 2/3 volume initial stories things like Buso Renkin or Bleach had that give the feel of an almost complete product are cool, and it'd be nice to see some of those that actually roll with that and give complete closure, eh

Well considering Double Arts... I still don't get what happened there..

As for Koganeiro, perhaps it was due to the nature of the translation I read but I never got the Jump Propaganda bit. Sure the bloke wanted to be an editor for a magazine... and Jump was a bit awkwardly forced in there but it didn't give off the propaganda vibe to me. Or no where NEAR as much as certain parts of Bakuman.

And yeah, I think there are many advantages to having a slot meant for shorter stories. It would be a better tool imo for Jump to develop both younger artists as well as giving a venue for older ones (like Toriyama) to be featured.

Don't see that happening with Jump, unfortunately. The magazine, while I love it does a lot of things I disagree with. (though it also does a lot of things I like)

I have no problem with SnS pulling a double arts either, because the sooner it is gone the better, as far as I'm concerned. for SnS it is a choice between 20 chapters of shit and 1093 chapters of shit, so I know what I'd prefer there.

[flipthepage]

ah c'mon, you know you wanna embrace the naked-but-for-an-apron action!

[tahu909]

You're sounding like Kumagawa :P.

[tahu909]

Argee with you with sns the sooner it gone the better

[mist_nra]

And this is awesome!

xD

[piedoroshi]

tahu, I was absent for a few weeks (actually months), i come back and you become a big hater ...

what the hell xD

[tahu909]

only of SnS, Kiruko-san, Assassination Classroom and (to a slightly lesser extent) Toriko. On the other hand, I don't particularly mind Beelzebub anymore. :P

[ext_690027]

yea, you don't seem to comment that much on Beelzebub anymore.

[tahu909]

that's because some of the recent arcs have actually been half decent :P.
