Otaku Review Image

Here’s the extracted text from the image: **Left Cover:** – ONE PIECE – ROMANCE DAWN – Eiichiro Oda – JUMP COMICS **Middle Cover:** – Ao no Hako – 1 – JUMP COMICS – Ura Ka **Right Cover:** – SAKAMOTO DAYS – vol. 1 – Yuto Suzuki – JUMP COMICS

1: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/14(Sat)16:48Yeahx9

The one piece never changes, does it?

2: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/14(Sat)16:48Yeahx2

The current Jump has changed quite a bit in atmosphere compared to the past.In other words, the atmosphere of the old Jump is quite different from now, right?

4: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/14(Sat)16:49Yeahx17

>>2!

3: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/14(Sat)16:49Yeahx5

It feels like it has become like a magazine from a while ago.

5: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/14(Sat)16:49Yeahx2

The two on the right will switch soon.

6: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/14(Sat)16:49Yeahx2

“After the absence of Dragon Ball, let’s bring in another ace and say, ‘Let’s study the magazine that is losing in circulation and improve the publication!'”
It seems really bad, similar to the time when I was heavily relapsing into boxing and detective work.

8: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/14(Sat)16:52Yeahx4

>>6I can’t say it anymore since I’ve already succeeded with another project.

32: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/14(Sat)17:12

>>8If only one work is a hit, it would end up with a magazine that only features one-piece dresses and the number one, right?

7: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/14(Sat)16:51

I liked Ayatsuri Sakon.

9: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/14(Sat)16:53

Don’t you think it’s about time to stop being so obsessed with surveys? But I also can’t see what would change if we did stop…

10: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/14(Sat)16:55

I don’t think we should stop being opinionated, but I wonder if there are any improvements being made.

11: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/14(Sat)16:56Yeahx2

It might be a good idea to try canceling it after ten weeks like in the old days.

12: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/14(Sat)16:59Yeahx1

The questionnaire principle tends to filter out manga like JoJo that can’t be made into a questionnaire.

13: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/14(Sat)17:00Yeahx1

If we stop conducting surveys, we’ll only have the loud voices of a minority on the internet as references.

15: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/14(Sat)17:00Yeahx6

>>13There are sales of comics, right?

19: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/14(Sat)17:03

>>15The industry doesn’t have the luxury to wait, to the extent that we can only judge by the number of reservations, not even by the sales of the first edition…

14: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/14(Sat)17:00Yeahx1

It is a fact that the current Jump can be spoken about more peacefully than during the time of Hero Academia and Jujutsu.

16: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/14(Sat)17:01

>>14By the time “Ichi and Bachi” is animated, those guys will be back.

30: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/14(Sat)17:11

>>16The punishment is of the jujutsu BLEACH type, after all.

33: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/14(Sat)17:16

>>14Is this thread considered to be discussing peacefully?

34: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/14(Sat)17:17Yeahx1

>>33I think it’s much more peaceful compared to its heyday…

17: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/14(Sat)17:01

I’ve never seen a pattern where answering a survey boosts results as clearly as this, so I understand that having good ownership in the survey is beneficial.

18: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/14(Sat)17:02

I think we should stop making it so obvious in the order of publication that it reflects the preference of the survey, to the point where readers can somewhat understand the ranking.

20: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/14(Sat)17:04

If the standalone book sells well, the theory of popularity would suggest that “Kaiki 8” is the next popular work after “One Piece” and “Spy x Family.”

21: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/14(Sat)17:06Yeahx4

>>20That’s true, but is there some kind of problem?

22: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/14(Sat)17:06

>>20That should be fine.

23: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/14(Sat)17:07Yeahx2

>>20I’m telling you that it is!

24: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/14(Sat)17:08

It’s a system that prioritizes developments that excite everyone and suppresses the author’s self-indulgence.
I wonder if it’s still functioning now.

25: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/14(Sat)17:08

Ichii and Kagurabachi are bouncing.

26: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/14(Sat)17:09Yeahx1

Doesn’t it feel like it’s aimed at Generation Z?
Only the old man and old woman are left behind.

28: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/14(Sat)17:10

>>26Well, that’s true, but…

27: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/14(Sat)17:09

If it’s a popular work, it wouldn’t quietly flop without being talked about in the anime community, right?

29: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/14(Sat)17:10Yeahx4

>>27Are you talking badly about Nige Waka Sakamoto?

31: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/14(Sat)17:11Yeahx4

>>29This is a story about Andelaroboko.

38: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/14(Sat)17:21

>>31“Kai 8 sold 10 million copies of the original work and the anime had a lot of money spent on it, yet it was met with silence, which is alarming.”

40: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/14(Sat)17:23

>>38No, Toho mentioned it by name in their financial results and praised it.

35: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/14(Sat)17:17

Doesn’t the manga that feels like Jump really resemble the old Jump manga, especially with Kiyoshi-kun being featured at the beginning?

37: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/14(Sat)17:21

>>35At that time, a clone manga of One Piece that was treated as deviating from the mainstream.
I think the perception of it as a classic jump manga is somewhat off.

45: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/14(Sat)17:27

>>37Isn’t it a bit off to consider it a clone just because the writing style is similar? It’s clearly a straightforward battle manga.

36: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/14(Sat)17:20

It seems tough that One Piece serves as both a flagship and a space for KochiKame.

41: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/14(Sat)17:24

>>36Oda himself said that Ace can be, but he can’t become a captain.

54: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/14(Sat)17:36

>>41There are no longer manga in the category where manga artists gather and do something with excitement like Dragon Ball or KochiKame.

39: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/14(Sat)17:23Yeahx1

What are the classic jump manga? Is it DB or Hokuto?

42: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/14(Sat)17:24Yeahx5

It’s a strange way to put it, but during the time when My Hero Academia, Jujutsu Kaisen, and Demon Slayer were being serialized, it really felt like Jump.

43: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/14(Sat)17:26

About eight years ago, half of the readership of Jump was adults.
It’s no longer a children’s magazine.

44: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/14(Sat)17:27Yeahx1

I want to go back to the time when subtle manga that wasn’t even a signboard sold 10 million copies.
Specifically, in the 2000s.

49: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/14(Sat)17:30

>>44In the past, I read by magazines, so the options were limited, making it possible.
It’s probably difficult now because it’s the era of reading with apps.

46: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/14(Sat)17:27

Demon Slayer is a manga that feels like an old-school Jump series, with both the story itself and the character psychology displaying a strong sense of self-sacrifice.

47: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/14(Sat)17:28

Compared to works that are marketed as “Shonen manga revival” but actually show the naked ugly characters with a romance-centric mindset, Kiyoshi is seriously doing Shonen manga, regardless of how interesting it is.

48: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/14(Sat)17:30

There is a feeling that I want them to seriously continue the style of battle manga that is often said to be a template for Jump.

50: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/14(Sat)17:33

Are eBook sales still not considered important?

56: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/14(Sat)17:37

>>50The evaluation value of even web serialized manga, not just Jump, is still higher in print.
It can be said that the value of e-book sales has relatively decreased due to the advancement of digitization.

51: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/14(Sat)17:33

I think manga artists in their 30s right now could draw the most interesting Jump manga.

52: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/14(Sat)17:34

Sunday Magazine Champion is even crazier.
It’s still like that frame where it’s just a jump, isn’t it?

57: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/14(Sat)17:38

>>52Sunday and Magazine still have sellable manga, but what about Champion?
It looks like Iruma-kun is quite appealing to women in issue 94.

53: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/14(Sat)17:34Yeahx2

Honestly, I think the top ranks of Jump Plus have a more Jump-like content.

55: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/14(Sat)17:36

>>53Spy monster 8 Dandadan?

61: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/14(Sat)17:42

>>53The current top titles on Jump+ are Spy Family, Kaiju No. 8, Chainsaw Man Part 2, and Dandadan.
None of them feel like Jump, do they?
Especially since Chainsaw Man has changed its atmosphere compared to when it was serialized in the magazine.

58: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/14(Sat)17:39

It’s not so much that it’s important, but electronic books continue to sell little by little over long periods, and sales fluctuate due to sales on e-book preview sites, making them difficult to use as a measure of popularity like physical volumes.

59: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/14(Sat)17:40

Ever since the ultra promotion was discontinued, it seems that more people have started threads like this.

60: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/14(Sat)17:42Yeahx3

>>59I must say, I didn’t expect such strong affection for the Super Tour.

73: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/14(Sat)18:01

>>59Manga enthusiasts have probably been repeating the same thing for a decade or more.

62: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/14(Sat)17:43

Sakamoto is reading happily, but…
I always have the feeling that the current Sakamoto in this magazine is in second place… I wonder if it’s okay…

70: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/14(Sat)17:54

>>62The author also thinks they wanted to do it leisurely at a mid-level.
Thanks to the anime effect, it has surpassed a total of 12 million copies sold worldwide, at least.
There should only be a little over 60 works in the history of Jump that have surpassed 10 million copies.

71: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/14(Sat)17:56

>>70That’s amazing that there are even 60 of them…

63: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/14(Sat)17:43

Printed books generate royalties based on the number printed, and actual sales do not matter.
E-book = Royalties are generated only from actual sales, and the sale price is also reflected in that.
So if the weight is placed too heavily on the electrons, the creators will also see a decrease in their income.

64: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/14(Sat)17:45

The magazine has changed a lot, but it’s still somehow a magazine.

65: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/14(Sat)17:47

Kadokawa can choose the tightest options without having to consider the printing companies since they started their own printing.
I heard that the number of copies issued at one time has decreased.

66: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/14(Sat)17:47

Magazines always have low IQ when you look at them.

67: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/14(Sat)17:48

Honestly, I have no intention of buying manga volumes on paper anymore.

68: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/14(Sat)17:48

Are they going to have another rush of sports manga, or can I only think of Jump as Jump no matter how far they go?

69: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/14(Sat)17:50

Thanks to physical books, manga artists can make a living as long as they can publish their manga.

72: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/14(Sat)18:00

It still feels like a manga magazine that nerdy boys and nerdy old men read.
Smells from the cover
