Centuria had some good first chapters, especially Anval showing up and all the mythology around julians curse.
But MAD? i have no idea how that wasnt axed. it took like 4 months for the MC to get any kind of power and the premise and alien design were just so fucking generic

yeah I'm enjoying MAD now but the beginning feels like every generic alien invasion survival fiction ever made, even the aliens look like discount xenomorphs with the phalic head theme

The latest batch flopping really does feel like a big case of bad editors more than anything. I think they all could've had at least a minor hit with some better guidance.

>>288015093
>it took like 4 months for the MC to get any kind of power
I think it is a simple case of Jump+ readership leaning a bit older. You read any scifi a slow start isn't that weird, built up an atmosphere. When any SJ series has to be super fast not to bore anyone, introduce a big cast for everyone to love and attempt to set up a compelling (to kids/manchildren) story. Clearly just isn't working any more.
>>
>>288015651
anon the first two volumes failed to set the tone. it was a survival horror story until he got the axe notice and (probably as a joke) he turned his mc into a black alien bvll (yes the other aliens are white and black-horned ones are as powerful as 10 of them)
now every alien hybrid even manipulates a special element an ability none of the normal aliens have
>>

kinato or whatever was doomed from the start

Following the shota was a fucking mistake, they could have been introduced later, this should have started with Ouga finding out mei is human and fight aliens together
It's still sad no manga is allowed to evolve anymore though
>>
It's a great idea for a series.
I think it could have benefitted from the pace being a bit steadier, lettering it grow between fights.
First big boss alien fight on the roof had its moments, like the great suplex ending, but the alien itself was a bit rough.
Seemed too strong.
Maybe we'll get a V2 down the road.

Legitimately, I think I would've preferred this in a different mag. I can honestly say I have no real beef with the earlier chapters. The plot could've kicked in a little sooner but at no point did I ever go 'holy shit can the story just move forward.' It had an energy to it that I enjoyed, and I also liked that the reveal for the parasite was taking its time (knowing what we know about them now only furthers my opinion on that.) I am, sadly, not a Nipponese reader so I suppose my opinion is moot, but even they seemed to have an overall positive response to it. I genuinely think it suffers from having the most niche audience of the batch, maybe due to the wrestling?
>>
>>288018296
Shota and tatsumi were needed to set up the parasite's abilities and to make ouga feel guilty for implanting him. They could have skipped the generic jobbers and rooftop alien wrestling to go straight to flying alien, leaving ouga's capture/mei's introduction to chapter 5 or 6/end of volume 1.

Yeah, this should have been in Jump Plus, Saito is a pretty awful EiC.
I bet after this one, Kinato dies, then doctor, then Roku, then the basketball (Sorachi may last a little more)
He is just making people not even want to try anything new there since it's always axed
>>
>>288018461
>>288018485
>>288018928
Since Ruri is never going to come back because the author obviously went the lazy way saito should have been smarter and advertise this new arc with the new girl

>>288020544

I mean, when Akane ends the "Glorious Nippon culture" spot will be taken by another Nip thing like Kabuki or tea ceremonies or some shit.
>>
>>288020566
It was going to be an inevitability regardless, especially when both series feature a superpowered wrestler. Instead of trying to setup alien lore and worldbuilding, he should have tripled down and went all in on the wrestling gimmick.
>>
>>288011610
>>288011645

Trying to balance how hard to blow your load early on seems difficult these days. I get the feeling the editors and the readers are pulling in two different directions.
>>
>>288015093
MAD is J+, those series are given a much longer time to stew than Shounen Jump series.
On top of that, MAD was very good from the start of its run. It is better now but this is due to having long buildup for the characters in addition to the action scenes. The last chapter would not have hit nearly has hard if we didn't have a year of John's suffering to look back on to see his growth and cheer for him.
I think the people crying about ADHD zoomers are right, if you guys think something like MAD was bad at the start when it was never bad.
If it gets an anime I guarantee you people will get hooked episode 1 just at the tulpa reveal, but an anime will also enhance the feelings of dread and unease from the early chapters.
>>
>>288015906
You are retarded, they set up John turning into an adapter from like chapter 3. It was always the intention.

This is such a weird series. I enjoy the fights, I enjoy the art, and the MC is pretty based but it felt completely doomed from the start. Maybe if he got a suit faster or fought named enemies quicker people would have been on board? Dunno this one just seemed like it was fucked from the get go for no real fault of its own.

I hate that, I hate this mentality

This guy is always defending the toc but the reality is if Mei got 10 chapters she would get more discussion around her than the entire roboco and Kiyoshi combined

Saved by Nakano just like Nue. It would have been axed under Saito during the first chapters.

mc doesn't appeal to fujos at all, muscular men are only popular among gay men and mature women.

That's probably why it failed. Where are all the wrestling moves? Why bother including a breast in the story at all?

If goat girl was introduced at the end of volume 1, this would have survived
If goat girl was introduced in chapter 3, this would have broken the 100k line
What happened to all the good editors in Jump, has Lin poached everyone to J+?

Pathetic

Thanks OP. It's completely axed, but I still love every part of it.

>Fuck Jump for not giving anything time to develop.
This. Mindless faggots will fellate Jump endlessly but they'll be the ones crying foul when Jump axes a series they like due to their inability to give anything room to breathe.

Nope.

This panel bothers me. At this angle, wouldn't her horn just end up stabbing his chest?

Yeah it's literally the Bone Collection intro and people were coping saying it wasn't that bad

I'M SO READY FOR 100 MORE CHAPTERS OF KIYOSHI

>>288014894
Akane and Kiyoshi to an extent I get but I GENUINELY don't understand why Roboco is still here after the back to back hyper flops of the anime and the theatrical film release, it'd be one thing if it sold decently but it doesn't it just takes up space

Thanks for the dump.

Nah Kiyoshi is done, it's often felt like it was about to end at any moment but it's actually clearly over this time

You put up with pain for family

>>288012101
thanks op

>>288024688
people keep trying to argue otherwise but I genuinely think a ton of classics would survive today because 1. Saito but 2. The Audiences want to IMMEDIATELY get to the good shit
