It'll be… interesting even if it's a terrible movie.

Aohige_AP

Sorry, deleted it, Sakon. repostin

While waiting for TOC, I saw this on the news.

Old rumor of Rurouni Kenshin movie confirmed for 2012 release by Warner Bros, starring Takeru Satou.
http://www.yomiuri.co.jp/entertainment/cinema/cnews/20110628-OYT8T00575.htm

Not sure if I want to see this…. :wassat:

Nekketsu

Sasaki just got promoted.

I stepped aside from the editor in chief of #SHONENJUMP and now is the deputy director of Shonen Manga group of Shueisha

I oversee 4 magazines now. #Weekly SHONENJUMP, V JUMP, JUMP SQ. and SAIKYO JUMP which is scheduled to launch in December.

No Maam

Uh, Saikyo Jump hasn't been published yet ?

But then…...what was that......thing we got calling itself Chopperman ?

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA.

I know I'm repeating myself,but it's just so funny

'ko

wow what happened to enigma, wasn't it supposed to be good?
and obviously, bleach falling so deep is just great

TLC

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

I've been having a crappy day and this really cheered me up. I literally burst out laughing.

'ko

someone re-open the hxh thread! look what sasaki tweeted:

he really is a good man

Daz

Marvelous. Was armors or Grimm slated for cancellation? Cause Bleach being effectively bottom 2 would be…exquisite.

MarcelloF

Too bad for Enigma. I like it. Hope it rises again.

IceBorg

Hahahahaha again at Bleach.

Poor Enigma I like it.

Aaronrules380

This is fantastic. Utterly fantastic

RPGJay

cue praise that happens every time Bleach is low

More importantly why is Enigma so low?

–-------------------------------------
Nice place for Bakuman, Sket Dance has fallen a bit im afraid.

Cyan D. Funk

Naruto's slipping too, just not as hilariously.

RPGJay

Yeah Toriko has pretty much taken Naruto's place as #2.

Rightfully so.

TLC

Sket Dance is too low. I mean beaten by shitty Reborn? Ugh.

IceBorg

This week we have a perfect top 3.

Maybe someday we will have:

One Piece
Toriko
Bakuman
Beelzebub
Sket Dance or Gintama

The perfect top 5.

Silverblade

RPGJay

The perfect top 5 would include Hunter X Hunter when Togashi isn't off playing Dragon Quest.

IceBorg

@RPGJay:

I think HxH isn't a ranked series but don't quote me on this I may be wrong.

Silverblade

One Piece
Gintama
Bakuman
Beelzebub
Toriko

Now that's a true current Jump top. Even if everything past Gintama is interchangable.

I hope some scanlator group picks up ST&RS soon. I really like the concept behind it. It might even turn out like Uchuu Kyodai for poor non-japanese people.

And you go, Bleach! With this tempo, by the end of this year we might expect even volume sales dropping. Also, why is Reborn up with the good series again?

Skadi

nono, Beelzebub on the top 3 is the best. And of course OP forever number one

MarcelloF

My top 5 is:
1. One Piece
2. Beelzebub
3. Sket Dance (Although, it's a really hard choice between it and Beelzebub. >_> So these two are interchangeable. I'm starting to lean towards Sket Dance, though)
4. Bakuman
5. Toriko (Or maybe Enigma. Toriko's probably the better made series, but I often enjoy Enigma more)

Aohige_AP

@The:

Not Grimm, but Sengoku Armors is.
So Bleach is already effectively bottom 3, really.

@Thousand:

Sket Dance is too low. I mean beaten by shitty Reborn? Ugh.

There hasn't been a really good chapter in a while.
It may pick up a little when the valentines chapter rankings come in, but I think it's gonna be in the bottom half for a while from here.

Skadi

Isn´t there any spoiler of Beelzebub yet? Not even the cover?

IceBorg

RPGJay

The ideal top 5 line up for me:

One Piece
Hunter X Hunter
Toriko
Bakuman
Beelzebub/Sket Dance/Gintama (Whatever one is more appealing to me that week)

Though I'm not crazy about sports manga, is kuruko no basket(sp?) any good?

Jacko

My top 5 would be:
One Piece
Gintama
Toriko
Bakuman
Beelzebub

Imo HxH deserves a place in the top 5, but i think with so many breaks it isn't really ranked.
I would love it if Gintama would get more recognition not only in Japan, but also in the web community.
The problem is that the scanlations are really behind.

kuruko no basket is shit, its Naruto/Bleach in sport form.
Its one of these mangas, which are blocking the spots for good series in WSJ.

Big_Bad_Lith

jump top 5:

One Piece
Toriko
Gintama
Beelzebub
Sket Dance

so seeing all these series doing very well is very pleasing.

No Maam

I don't read Gintama, Sket Dance of Beelzebub. I was thinking of doing Beelzebub, but not sure. I like crazy stuff in Toriko and OP, would you think I like it ?

TLC

Beelzebub is hella crazy that's for sure.

Aaronrules380

Gintama can also get pretty damn crazy, and I'd highly recommend it, though the status of the scans would make me recommend its excellent anime adaptation over the manga

IceBorg

@No:

All those three are full of crazy.

maxterdexter

@IceBorg:

All those three are full of crazy.

I'd say that Craziness order is
1.- Gintama
2.- Belzebub
3.- Sket Dance

In funny order, it varies greatly between chapters, but Belzebub hasn't ever tried to be serious, the other 2 do it sometimes, with great success.

I still haven't read all of Gintama but yeah I agree but there are chapters of Sket Dance that are crazier than the other two.

Dont think about reading it, just do it.

Markku

One Piece
Hunter x Hunter
Gintama
Bakuman
Toriko

There's no other choice.

Kareem Said

@Markku:

One Piece
Hunter x Hunter
Gintama
Bakuman
Toriko

There's no other choice.

Except for Beelzebub

Prismeru

One Piece
Hunter x hunter
Gintama/Sket Dance/Bakuman

Just 3.

i don´t care for the others.

Markku

@Prismeru:

One Piece
Hunter x hunter
Gintama/Sket Dance/Bakuman

Just 3.

But… that's 5...
