      This series should be out in raw form within the next 24 hours so look for that and expect a scanlation (seeing as it is so long and, i for one (being part of the mankin-trad scanlation team) want to get some good quality) sometime in 2007 but translations will float around before than. It is about some kid who can paint destruction or something along those lines and it has a steampunk theme (wikipedia it, but it essentially should have alot to do with steam and the turn of the 20th century culture, or maybe a bit before). The details have been sketchy considering no one has given this series much attention, what with Ral Omega Grado coming out two weeks before it. However here are some spoiler pics from the manga helpers forum: http://mangahelpers.com/forum/index.php?topic=11533.0

      I for one love shaman king and cant wait to work on this series along with reading it. Anyone else interested or is it just me?

        Hopefully this one won't be cancelled >>

        I also dont see any spoiler pics at manga helpers….

        Oh yeah I hope that his drawings arent like the last volumes of shaman king and more like his older stuff.

            Wow, the guy's still around?

            I must say I'm rather impressed looking at the spoiler pics. Did he take a leaf out of Jojo or something?

                  Sweet lord.

                  That IS Ryu as an old man. I'll be looking forward to reading this.

                  As much as I'm looking forward to an actual end for Shaman King.

                    Wow, I loved Shaman King. Plus I do believe I spy an old man with a pompadour.

                    I'm not entirely sure how you can possibly go wrong with old men with pompadours.

                      Damn neo you beat me I was going to make a thread for it but anyways, I as well will look forward to this

                      and Takei did get influences from Osamu Tezuka and the creator of Jojo and am guessing Saint Seiya as well since that was manga he wished he made.

                        Haha, looks good. It's good to know a contemporary of Oda has returned to Jump.

                        …

                        Now comes the part where I write endless letters to Del Rey so they get this series and VIZ Media does not.

                              Sigh, as usual, you are thicker than the cornerstone of a condemned Catholic church. Appropriately, you should go back to /b/, benny.

                              …

                              VIZ Media, contrary to popular belief, does not have exclusive rights to JUMP related material; see the history of Raijin Comics (defunct) and who actually owns the Japanese rights to CMX's Tenjou Tenge for details.

                                  There is no fucking way in hell Del Rey would get this series before Viz.

                                    I hope this series gets adapted into English.

                                    I really liked Shaman King, and those scans look cool.

                                      Since Del Rey only seems to be able to license Kodansha stuff… and Viz (especially since the entire ShoPro announcement) gets dibs on EVERYTHING Shueisha/Shogakukan.... The thick one is you for having high hopes.

                                      Not to stray from the subject... I wouldn't mind reading it. I never liked Shaman King but maybe this is better. Looks better at least... apart from the mechs. ... whatever.

                                            here is a synopsis from Windara of the mankin-trad forums (i had nothing to do with its making):
                                            Heavy-mecha Boy Jumbor Barutronica

                                            [I'm refraining from making a one-to-one translation of the lines to decrease the chance of getting into legal problems. But I'll tell the story in a way so that people who can't read the raws or get their hands on some (future) official copies will get a good idea of what's happening in the stories. Needless to say, this is a spoiler-abundant piece.]

                                            It was 3002, and the human civilization had crumbled and rebuilt itself again and again over the thousand years, despite the destruction and challenge brought by the harsh nature.

                                            In this era of constant war against nature and havoc, construction teams were the star of economy system, the conquering force as well as a weapon themselves, because heavy robots were used in construction works to speed up efficiency.

                                            Jumbor was the leader of a famous construction team of a little country with a cute princess. One day, as their group was about to start a reconstruction work of a tunnel which was destroyed by an earthquake, a much more powerful construction team arrived and claimed the land in no time, killing Jumbor who tried to protect his teammates against the cruel opponents…

                                            Jumbor woke up in 3007, finding himself revived in his own clone body (memory transplanted) which has a physical age of 5 years old, and in addition to that, his body was partly mechanized. His robot arms are linked up to and directly controlled by his brain's signals. He was told that the country had gone and the princess and the king disappeared, and he discovered that his mechanized body is very powerful. He was also told he was 'last of the series'.

                                            Jumbor went back to where he had been and discovered that the people were living in a nightmare, where the construction team was the absolute power and the general public have no say against anything. Jumbor stopped the destruction of a street of poor people's house only to be scolded by the people -- they dare not do anything against the will of their 'owners'. He was shocked and went into a bar (which greeted him with milk) and discovered one of his old teammates (now working for the new boss) in the bar. He looked at the disappointed and despondent teammate and realized that he must not cry over spilled milk but had to act like a responsible leader, leading people out of misery, and rebuilt the happy kingdom where people's wish and welfare were taken care of -- where people make roads for themselves, not others -- it's only in this environment that the proverb "The road we are to take is constructed by our own hands" becomes a meaningful sentence in the aspect of life.

                                            In the new boss' kingdom, people are called by shortnames, and people's full names were never used [This somehow reminds me of "Spirited Away" by Miyazaki.] and people do not seem interested in knowing each other because all are just 'tools of the boss'.

                                            Jumbor then protected his teammate who insisted his love with Jumbor even when pointed with a big gun as he was forced to tell the boss about the 'powerful kid that destroyed a branch of the construction team single-handedly' and proceeded to use his mechanized body to disassemble the boss' big all-in-one construction machine in no time. He was then greeted by the lab assistant which had taken care of Jumbor's rebirth process all these 5 years – she was actually the princess of the lost kingdom, just grown up after 5 years.

                                            (End of first chapter)

                                              Welp, looks like this series isn't doing well. From what I can tell it's consistently at/near the bottom of the table.

                                              And M&Y was canned this week, which I believe started close to the same time.

                                              Maybe the guy wasn't meant to write manga?

                                                Are you sure M and Y didn't just end. It looked pretty complete to me. Then again knowing jump, it probably did get cancelled.

                                                This one might end soon, but they just started a battle with this one guy so it might not for now anyway.

                                                Also how long in advanced do manga-ka know their series gets the boot?

                                                edit: Yeah M and Y probably got cancelled considering it was only 10 chapters.

                                                  Yeah, I'm assuming M&Y got canned because I remember it starting only like a little while ago.

                                                  Another new series starts next week. A samurai thing. I like the artwork.

                                                    Is it this time of the month where like 3 new series come in to jump?

                                                    and all end up getting cancelled

                                                      I haven't read anything of Juki outside of the first chapter, but I heard it's pretty awful.

                                                        Looks alright. Seems like Astro Boy on crack.

                                                        I was going to say Astro Boy and Futurama's illegitimate child on crack, but yeah.

                                                        I might read it, I enjoyed the little of Shaman King that I've read.

                                                                I only read the first three chapters of this series before losing interest. The first chapter looked cool, but it seemed to lose something when some other superpowaful kid or whatever showed up (at least that looked like what happened from the raws…). Has Takei ever written a series that wasn't cancelled? Butsu Zone didn't last long, Shaman King lasted a while before getting axed, and now this gets cancelled pretty quickly. That must really suck for him.

On the other hand, after Rave was finished, it's manga-ka did a series that only lasted one chapter, then Fairy Tail which, from what I understand, has been going pretty strong. Maybe he'll have better luck next time.

                                                                                      So dont hold your breath for a localization. There are any on-going jump series that havent gotten liscensed, they arent gonna bring over a failed one.

Maybe if it becomes an underground hit in the fansub market…
