also isn't this anime basically the same love triangle plot as Hi-Score Grill?

kagurabachi has officially stopped growing as seen by comparing volume 4 and 5 sales. will it have a slow but steady decline or can an anime rejuvenate its sales?
>>
>>275162919
Current arc is great. More people should be hyped for it but the west has a stupid inclination to immediately dislike anything involving exorcists
>>
>>275164072
But it grew? There also were older hits which experienced the same at exactly the same period: see 147k of vol 4 sales vs 152k of vol 5 sales.

bro you can't read nue from an objective point of view and say it's good
at most it's passable tier slop but in no way is it good if you've read at least 10 manga in your life

people will bend over backwards to proclaim one piece as the greatest piece of media to ever grace humans. its time to accept that no matter how awful a single thing is, there will be an audience out there for it.

Nue would be more popular if Gakuro didn't have a permanent "I shat myself o_o" face and if the black mark on his face and hair only apleared when he is in combat mode. He actually looks like a serious MC when he closes his goddamn mouth like in

Some people will read a bunch of 5ch hate posts and pretend like the reality is different than what it really is. If you read 5ch and 2ch you'd think every manga in Jump is the worst thing ever written in the history of mankind.
>>
>>275168775
I'm all for criticizing kgb but after catching up with the story (stopped reading after rakuzaichi) I don't really get the the hateboner 5ch nips have for Samura. He is a retard, yeah, but what about it? I guess Chihiro's admiration for him is a little annoying but that's is. Hiruhiko feels like a shittier mahito to me but otherwise kinda inoffensive. I would probably complain more reading it weekly though.
>>
>>275169217
>I don't really get the the hateboner 5ch nips have for Samura
Samura perfectly embodies the japanese mindset(I'm right, everyone else is wrong, even if I was wrong i'm killing myself so I did nothing wrong in the end anyway) that led to their humiliation in WW2. Nips don't like being reminded of anything related to that period of their history

If you have read many manga that you'll be able to appreciate Nue's Exorcist storytelling. So many manga feel random, Nue succeed in doing what many fail to do by having a coherent plot

>then third protagonist is introduced and fight with her
>showed mentor fight a big character in the story to show off power
>introduced the allied group

>>
>>275170576
Let's compare it to KGB as an example. What happens to the kid at the start? So, Hakuri is the sidekick, what took so long to introduce him, does that mean Shiba got pushed out? Why does the main antagonist suddenly appear? Isn’t Hiyuki mellowing out too fast? Is anyone satisfied with how Takeru handled Samura betrayal? Ok so which characters are supposed to be part of the main group in this manga, Chihiro and the Masumi? Then what’s Hakuri status?

>>275170613
At this point people gotta admit the only main cast member is Chihiro, everyone else only appears in rotation to move the plot forward. I'm not a fan of this kinda setup for a shonen and it feels a bit like bait and switch if you are a fan of certain characters but if that's what author intended from the beginning then I just have to accept it.
>>275170576
Nue plot is still shit and boring though, even if it follows tried and tested steps.

Sometimes you win sometimes you lose. It's not the worst adaptation in the history of mankind but it's nowhere near what you'd expect of a 100k pre anime seller in 2024. It's like the most average 'early 2010s shonen action comedy anime' adaptation you've seen but it's 10 years too late to the plate.

quite a few people read witch watch here based off some posts here and there, but it barely gets brought up here since it left axebait territory, and when it does its often complaints about loli nico. the chapter dump threads are dead as well. it'll get discussed more here and its threads will become more alive with the upcoming anime
hakutaku was clearly dead on arrival, and is forgotten to the point where it gets zero shitposts. kyokuto necromance had more discussion than hakutaku
alot of people read syd and shitpost about it all the time. its part of the group with uu, kill blue, nue, astro, kiyoshi, himaten and ichi where these names get tossed in a hat and the random name that gets picked out catches a string of shitposts

>>275170788
I'm going to agree that the manga will revolve around Chihiro to an extremely strong degree in a way that is no longer common in modern anime. It feels more like a Western TV drama, the best example I can think of being 24 with Jack Bauer. House, Dr Who, Supernatural and even Law and Order are arguably similar. If you read KGB you should be reading it for Chihiro and no one else because so far it does seem like Takeru's plan is to cycle the side characters through, arc by arc. Fortunately Chihiro is a good character, he's my favorite and IMO a good character. The deuteragonist to me, is Enten.

I'm following Syd as well. It's okay but there is not much to talk about due to its motw format. Hopefully it improves with time, assuming that it avoids the axe.
I completely forgot about Hakutaku desu. The author shot himself in the foot with the game dev focus. It might be me being an old fuck but I can't see that kind of story sticking in a teen magazine. Even if the execution was good, it's too niche and it'd meet the same fate as GGG.
>>
>>275172569

>>
>>275189022
I don't think it's really a problem with the manga so much as a problem with people's expectations. I like Chihiro so this isn't a problem for me, the same way I watched House MD for Dr House. I can absolutely see this being a problem for other people though. It's why I think an adaptation could arguably benefit from filler.

Yes, people got to accustomed with character gacha.

Okitsura gave me such strong childhood nostalgia. A small town, local dialect, everyone knowing each other, and the way they play, I love this manga and anime so much. If I ever go to Japan, I would definitely first visit rural areas.
>>
>>275189348
Why? Tanjiro has full arcs away from Zenitsu and Nezuko and I don't think anyone pretends like they aren't main characters, same happens with certain arcs in D. Gray-man, it's happened before in Dragonball, the list goes on. Why is there this take that Chihiro is the only reason to follow the manga just because he doesn't focus on everyone else introduced as important all the time? I genuinely don't understand this take unless it's like your first foray into following a weekly manga.
>>
>>275189840
Zenitsu and Inosuke I meant, but also Kanae is included there as well.
>>
>>275162682
but doesn't that mean they get jump later than the rest of japan?

Chihiro, Hakuri, Hiyuki and Shiba are also basically the team 7 of the manga, they are the ones that got the mini pvs + the first 3 got a cover together

It is a problem if the side characters Hokazono rotates in aren't interesting. I don't know how others feel about the ninja trio, but I find them dull and the last few chapters have been a bit of a drag.

I know they're popular but I don't love the ninja either. Kind of feel like they should just be a duo, 3 is too many to introduce or develop all at once. They're alright though. Ro is my favorite. I think they kind of exemplify Takeru's weakness with character designs and could look a little stronger in some way. Ro stands out for basically looking like a cool little kid. I preferred Sumi's robes

So if I'm reading it right:
1. totemo yoka'ta = it was very good
2. maamaa yoka'ta = it was decent
3. futsuu da'ta = it was whatever (i don't know what futsuu is but guessing it's the neutral option)
4. amari yokunaka'ta = it wasn't very good (sorta bad)
5. yokunaka'ta = it wasn't good (straight up bad)
And the percentages are obviously how many people gave each response. Could be wrong though.

Yeah it's genuinely not uncommon in shonen manage to have the main character be removed for the main supporting cast for long periods of time idk why people treat Kagurabachi like it's breaking some mold doing this. If it's something you can't handle just don't read a series weekly.

Finally it's Wednesday, these two weeks have been awful for the quality of these threads. Obvious predictions for Issue 8 is Yozakura Family ends this issue, 3 series announced to begin starting Issue 9. Possible UU color page? Could be the issue after if they plan on axing Hakutaku the issue prior and giving UU 3 chapters to fully wrap everything up with a bow, but it could be 2 including this week. I think Nue & KB are going back to the bottom desu, maybe Syd as well depending on how reception was but apparently it's gotten more popular over time in JP? I'm not sure but I'm expecting a mid to low first rank desu. Everything else is the usual nothing to special. Gonna guess Nue, WW, Akane, and maybe TES for color pages in the next 2 or so issues.

I feel like many people misunderstand what side character fags are complaining about. I will only talk about Shiba since he is my favorite but the problem is not being gone or lacking screentime. The problem is not knowing what the fuck they are doing when they have every reason to be there and help. Give me one panel sending off shiba on a long mission and I will shut up, the problem is: it is not there.
Just recently in chapter 60 Shiba goes "oh noes I couldn't save you again uwu Samura did this as a warming to me uwu" and what happens in the exact same chapter? Chihiro is still not fully recovered and can't use enten without summoning Samura, goes on a mission with a ninja squad, Shiba is nowhere to be seen. inb4 pe patient it's going to be explained and he is doing something important: Remember rakuzaichi? He spent the entire time final battle was happening lecturing sazanami teenagers.

Read the Manga, he literally says what he was doing. Also, retard, the whole deal with Azami is he "doesn't know" Chihiro exists.

Chihiro is literally the safest he can be right now since he has the Masumi and none of the Hishaku can use any enchanted blades or Samura will kill them

>>
>>275192187
NTA, but you are arguing in bad faith.
Sasuke was there after Sarutobi's death and until Jiraiya and Naruto went on their arc. That was rather short.
At the same time Jiraiya is another established side character, great one on top of that. Characters of Orochimaru and Kabuto also were well established and popular to be considered the good temporary replacement. It also didnt last long and what's important - character absence was well established and you didnt read the story wondering why Sakura or Sasuke aren't there.
You either purpousely do not account for nuances that make your line of thinking unsustainable or just not well versed in fiction and analysis.
Takeru on other hand just produced three forgettable characters and told us to suck it up while making other characters stuck in wherever they are. With no good explanation or establishment.
He is bad at planning and yes - leaving characters in the way he does is uncommon for the shonen. Usually authors plan well enough to not leave important characters out for many months and if they do it doesn't feel bad. Shiba, Hiyuki and Tafuku's absence makes no sense. Their replacement suck.
Even the last chapter felt weird with Sumi and bike scene. It felt extremely Hiyuki-coded which begs the question why shove popular character away just to introduce Walmart version of her instead and not just make Hiyuki accompany Chihiro. Same comes to the big guy. He feels like differently looking Tafuku except more lame.
Like these developments are just lame. No wonder people have stopped discussing the series as actively as during Sojo and Rakuzaichi.

I didn't.
A reasonably intelligent person( which you have proven to not be) would know how a mongolian basket weaving forum work, but it appears that being confronted with the truth caused you some lapse in judgement.
Are you currently able to explain why do you hate the truth so much or is the rage you feel after being humiliated preventing you from doing so?
>>
>>275192491
I mean these characters might die and those deaths might be necessary. That would explain why characters like Hiyuki and Tafuku aren't there, they can't die yet. Mind you Hiyuki and Tafuku have a very specialized combat kit that makes it difficult to place them in this arc. Hiyuki fights via a summon and her summon is too easily destructive to allow her to fight without Tafuku. I can't imagine these characters working with Chihiro on an operation that requires so much finesse. The Masumi are also there to give Samura added depth and texture, he betrayed people who had been working for him for years so they're aiming to fight a former friend. It might not be a lot of depth but it's more than Hiyuki and Tafuku would have given that they have no connection to him.

Hiyuki is not interchangeable with Sumi especially, Sumi being cool and collected is key to why Iori puts any trust in her. Hiyuki is depicted as a brawler, can you imagine her on a motorbike? Sumi was also used to showcase more of the world's power system:
>her transportation mandalas contrasted against Shiba's teleport ability
>her scroll summons contrasted against Hakuri's storage ability
>her spirit healing against Char's healing ability.
Sumi is a sorcerer but her powers do not seem to be manifestations of her body's innate powers, rather she uses various tools to different effects. That difference is what makes people like Shiba, Hakuri and Char so special. They don't need specific tools or as much prep time. This is actually why I think Sumi isn't going to last long term, she can do what other characters can do, but worse.

Best explanation for Char not being there is that letting her get near the Kamunabi is a bad thing. Azami has covered up a lot for Chihiro so I wonder if the Kamunabi are aware that Char still exists. Might be a bad thing for her if they take an interest in her. I really liked Char so it would be a shame if she gets written off. If that's the plan then she should have found a real family that could take her off their hands. Hinao is ... fine, but it would work better if Hinao was older. I think she should have been a little bit older to more easily integrate her into the plot.

>>275192268
I think Shiba is really hard to write around because his powers are kind of OP. The story has been breadcrumbing the full extent of his powers because it's not just teleportation but perhaps it would have been better to establish some limitations early on. Like he can only teleport a certain distance or so many times in a given time frame. I feel like he's being saved for the big War backstory chapter after which he might get killed off. There's just a little too much overlap in abilities with characters like Hakuri and now Sumi who can both also teleport people.

There are obvious downsides to Sumi's abilities. Her transportation mandalas require a flat surface area, plenty of markers, and time. So far we have only seen her transport mandalas being used to teleport to the base of the temple. She might not be able to teleport to any other place or may need to set up paired mandalas at both locations. It is a worse ability than Shiba's ability to teleport anywhere, anytime. Her scroll summons require she haul these big-ass scrolls that she has prepared ahead of time. Compare to Hakuri who can travel light and needs only to touch a person or object in order to store and transport them. She also wasn't able to physically heal Hakuri, just to help alleviate the strain on his abilities, a process that would take 30 minutes at minimum and that required a bed, markers and paper talismans.

IMO so far the most intriguing thing about her and the only thing that gives me any hope for her survival is the implication that she might have been the one to alter Iori's memories, that's a unique ability no one else has and there's a lot you can do story-wise with a character who can do that.
>>
>>275193217
I caught up with the manga just recently and my first though when I saw the non-reaction of ninja squad to Samura's betrayal was
>they are still loyal to him, aren't they?
Hakuri didn't see them getting knocked out so they might just be pretending/lying. Since they already lied to Kamunabi for Samura before.
I think that would explain some things but I don't think my speculation is correct.
>>
>>275193203

It's not a character flaw, it's a writing quirk. Chihiro acts the same towards Hakuri, actually even worse I'd say. Chihiro is a somewhat experienced fighter with a sword nuke, you can partially attest Shiba leaving him in dangerous situations to knowing Chihiro's limits well after 3 years (still lame and irresponsible). Chihiro putting Hakuri who can't fight, doesn't have sorcery/braindamaged Hakuri in dangerous situations is somehow 10 times worse. He is a really shitty friend when you think about it, huh... Especially pulling this shit when the whole plan depends on Hakuri being alive and being able to use his special sorcery again. Chihiro is fully at fault for everything that went wrong this arc and yet Hakuri is the one blaming himself, lmao, poor guy.
I hope it's addressed in flashbacks.

Hakuri's power was the only way to recover the swords from Hishaku and he needs to be close to the owners to use it, so there really wasn't an alternative where he could stay out of the fight.

This thread literally can't exist without shitting on every manga in the magazine. Most of the posts are usually negative or apathetic. Like no one cares enough about Witch Watch so you literally never it mentioned outside of chapter drops and even then it's a toss up. OP? It's got its own threads so it's the only reason it's not as bad here. Ichi? Became a prime shitposting target positive and negative, Sakadays pre anime trailers? Most you got was "people fight" criticism occasionally but other than that virtually dead. TES is similar but dodged the shitposting thanks to having a decent adaptation but it's basically non existent in these threads. So it's like 6 manga all being used as shitposting bait to carry these threads to bump limit. Wow amazing.

>>275193356
Given how things worked out at the temple I'm not sure it's just a writing quirk. Chihiro blindly put all this faith in Hakuri and was punished for it. His plan wasn't bad actually, but they were screwed by the sudden timing of the Hishaku attack. I don't fully blame Chihiro for everything (that's on Samura) but I DO think what transpired is worth pondering over and feeling some guilt for. I hope after this arc he has enough presence of mind to give Hakuri some comfort because as you said right now Hakuri is blaming himself for everything which isn't fair. Not to say I don't enjoy seeing PUNISHED Hakuri, it's great.

I think their friendship is interesting and arguably, kind of unhealthy (just better than the alternatives Hakuri was realistically looking at) but I hadn't made the connection between their friendship and the relationship Chihiro has with Shiba. I think there's a lot of narrative space to give Hakuri depth that will probably go unexplored because the story is still at it's core a battle shonen for teenage boys.
>>
>>275193456
Well, Hakuri couldn't use his sorcery for 3 more days when attack happened. They didn't know they would meet a healer lady who can conveniently heal him. Sending a super important kid who can't use sorcery or fight on a dangerous mission is stupid. Chihiro is dumb for not even mentioning to kamunabi that it's a terrible idea. He is a bad friend for not making sure Hakuri is hidden somewhere safe. He is double retarded for agreeing to split up in such a dangerous situation, Hakuri could be dead if Uruha didn't save him. Chihiro has to protect two extremely important people instead of one.
>>
>>275193540
Chihiro wants a friend so badly he blinds himself. He wants Hakuri to be an equal ally and is trying to speedrun that process.
>>
>>275193535
It would be kinda funny if Chihiro's unhealthy "you can do it bro, even if you're literally braindamaged, I believe in u;)" attitude was learned from Shiba but I doubt that is the case.

>>275193561
When your equal friend is 100 times weaker than you, has no combat training and is braindamaged at the same time, forcing that equality means being a malicious retard. I want Chihiro to have flaws and that kind of flaw would be interesting but I doubt it will be addressed. I hope something interesting will come out of it.

But he can't. It wouldn't be so bad if he could do basic self defence...

That wouldn't be kinda funny, that would be EXTREMELY funny. It's actually remarkably believable and consistent. He doesn't know what normal friendships are like. He wants an equal ally and knows that's what Hakuri wants too so in his socially inept little mind the best thing to do to whip Hakuri into shape is to bring him on important missions.

Previously anons have mentioned seeing potential for Hakuri to become a villain and things like this bolster the argument in favor of that happening.

Hakuri is too nice for a villain arc. He will just keep getting more and more suicidal until someone finally sits him down and explains that the importance of his life doesn't depend on his "usefullness", he is important just because he is a good person and a friend. I honestly expected him to get out of this mindset after rakuzaichi but it seems Chihiro's equals talk did some damage.

Hot damn when you put it like THAT . . . you are completely right. I'm serious. Chihiro was a good stepping stone for Hakuri, someone who showed him light in darkness, but he's too messed up on his own to be a persistently good primary influence on Hakuri going forward. Hakuri needs the influence of other people who are emotionally healthier and ideally, someone who doesn't have dangerous ambitions.

Of the existing cast I would sooner expect Hinao or Char to play that role than a hag.

Chihiro does that because he got impressed by Hakuri's willpower in a moment where he himself showed weakness. From there on, he considers him an equal worth of respect even though Hakuri himself is still not up to par yet. On the flip side, Hakuri sees Chihiro as the better man because he projects onto him an ideal to contrast his fucked up upbringing. They are a pretty toxic duo kek

They're likely getting announced together.
>>
>>275196062
But the manga that parodies it is.
>>
>>275196572
Kinda pathetic for one series to have almost 80 more chapters than the other one to have the anime announcement together.
>>
>>275196545
After Akane/KGB, it's a toss up on who's actually next as far as new series go.
>>
>>275196590
>>275196545
My guess would be

Akane/Kagurabachi > Nue > Astro > Ichi

I would've put in Chojo or Kiyoshi but I'm not sure. Kill Blue can somehow ruin all of this.
>>
>>275196545
akane is only popular enough for an anime because of the forced kagurabachi ship. no one would genuinely care otherwise
>>
>>275196499
I mean, it'll be Flavour of the month on Netflix as long as it's good enough, the audience is big and probable won't demand top tier sakuga from a more grounded series
>>
>>275196499
To no one's surprise, normies never demanded high-quality animation in the first place. They just want it not to be bad.
You know what normies really hate? Long wait between seasons.
>>
>>275196666
Eh, it'll have a massive circlejerk because Female MC. You know how this will go for Japan.
>>
>>275196675
They also hate ecchi and women with big boobs, thankfully Sakamoto has none of that shit
>>
>>275196695
>it'll have a massive circlejerk because Female MC
Try saying that to Medaka Box.
>>
>>275196666
falseflagging only works when it isn't extremely obvious

>>275196644
Switch Astro and kill blue, Astro lowkey has more chance of getting axed

Where's the fucking toc

Dandandan still manage to be normie type despite Momo being a rape victim on several occasions.

Or... maybe they didn't want to include it lol.

Akane and KGB aren't in the vote due to Saito request, they want all votes to focus on Nue.

what does ichi have the astro doesnt?

twink mc

>>275196644
Honestly, all expectations can break and Kill Blue somehow manages to get an anime before Ichi/Astro
>>
>>275196943
Not doing 15 first shit chapters
>>
>>275196943
It has pity point for Usazaki, novelty of a female duo working on WSJ manga (irrelevant for japanese readers), pretty much no controversy.
People are wary of Wakui after TR ending and technically the whole last arc. Also manga don't want to read yakuza = good manga in WSJ. Some designs look stupid I guess because Wakui isn't good at cartoony characters.
>>
>>275196943
Decent writing.
>>275196963
Kill Blue is faring better than Astro, I dunno why would this be surprising. Yet, I doubt either of them will get an anime.
>>
>>275196943
Good art, likeable characters and a writer who knows how to hide her powerlevel and only use it when required.
>>
>>275196775
Momo isn't a rape victim. Momo almost got raped but fought her way against it and was victorious. People liked that because it showed she's an action heroine, something that isn't common nowadays, especially in western media.
>>
>>275196943
People are given you bullshit reasons like good writing and likeable characters as if the shark chapters weren't tanking Ichi in the TOC
>>
>>275196695
Is this why they made her paris town bike?
>>
>>275193717
they are fighting
>>
>>275197805
The Shark Chapters are still 10x better than anything in Astro (except maybe Astro's singular good arc) or any random axebait, that's the difference between a quality series and one that's doomed to fail.

I still haven't seen any argument for why Ichi writing is good. It's good writing just because

I still haven't seen a single /wsj/ without brazilian seething over Ichi

Ichi isn't particularly good either. The writing is ok at best but never below mediocre. The actual difference is that Astro is plain terrible overall while Ichi has mediocre writing with good art.
>>
No TOC this weeks?
>>
>>275199448
Really?
>>
>>275199758
Maybe not until later today.,

>>275199360
Literally who?
>>
>>275196943
It's tryharding at least, unlike Astro. Wakui is clearly coasting off his fame with that shit. The art is a big downgrade even from TR.
>>
>people still think Himaten is dead

Or even in anime for that matter.

I see no reason to think it will live

But it did grow.

Interesting

>>275200167
>volume 2's 2nd week is worse than volume 1's 2nd week
It didn't grow especially when the following weeks will do progressively less
>>
>>275200260
Yet I don't see people doomposting about Kiyoshi as much if at all
>>

Most only read it for the art

Here is your working harder.

People suggested making a broader Jump thread to limit shitposting, so there.
>>
The fact that people refuse to use the Jump thread and made a new WSJ thread anyway just proves that there is no stopping the shitposters. They would rather continue their circlejerks.
>>
>>275200615
>They would rather continue their circlejerks
Very ironic coming from one of the two thread police who thought they were speaking for everyone when they decided to stop posting in the threads
>>
>>275199917
The regular thread shitter, he's been false flagging and ban evading for a whole year now. He always falseflags.
