Kyte posted:E: v--- Well yes, but this is on another level. It's not ambiguous at all. (Also I couldn't find raws but at the very least another translation had the 3 minute thing as well) Satou's quirk, as we know it, grants him super strength whenever he consumes sugar for three whole minutes at the cost of dulling his intellect for the duration. If FA's translation is to be believed, the math works out to 10g of sugar multiplying his strength five times over. What's unclear is whether or not consuming additional and/or larger doses of sugar multiplies his strength further (and to what degree), or if it only extends the time frame for which his powers are active. In other words, if Satou eats 20g (four teaspoons) of sugar, which of the following happens?

Makes a big difference whether or not his upper limit is merely five times his natural strength or potentially infinite, IMO.

I was just explaining what the confusion was over. Kyte thought we were arguing over the time limit when we were discussing the strength ceiling.

The official translation is, as I expected, a lot more vague as to what exactly is happening. So I'm going to keep applying years of learned comic book logic and assume the strength, but not the duration, stacks. I'm also going to assume, based on the official translation that using the strength gained is what drains him. A large part of why I'm going to assume all of this stuff, aside from just basic learned comic book logic, is because it would also lead to "cool" fights. Think about it; he has to perform a discrete physical action, that takes time and some amount of preparation/resouces, in order to get a "stack" of strength. But each individual stack lasts only three minutes, meaning there is both a limit to the number of times he could stack this power gain and an ideal point at which to "spend" it. Furthermore actually using this strength is going to wipe out his ability to fight in short order. Potentially incredible brute force, that requires time, effort, and planning to build up, and must be applied with extreme precision lest it be wasted or rendered less effective. That's actually a cool character.

Just a heads-up that spoilers and pics are out earlier than normal, since Jump is releasing on Saturday this week. Scans might not be out any quicker though, apparently a lot of the Chinese raw providers are freaked the gently caress out over the crackdown going on. Who can blame them, I'd hate to get disappeared over One Piece myself.

It feels like the early capitalization on this series is a result of Jump maybe wanting a new big smash hit series since Naruto's over and Bleach is well past its prime.

I feel like that's when most series start getting their push though. Somewhere in the 50-100 chapter range, they know if they have a potential hit on their hands.

Gunhead is literally a gun and that is fine with me. I'm a bit disappointed that given how film savvy Kouhei is he didn't make any Videodrome reference though.

Poor forgotten World Trigger. To be fair, it's not good enough to be that memorable but it always amuses me how it always falls under the radar. Though apparently the anime got renewed to become its own storyline so it doesn't fully count I guess.

I'm with Waffleman on this one. It really does feel like WSJ's trying to push it as the newest member of the Big Three. Fortunately it's good, so at least they're marketing something worthwhile.

They're probably pushing it this hard because Assassination Classroom is coming to an end.

Actually, what constitutes the current Big Three? One Piece is still going strong, sure, but Naruto ended and Bleach's been running on fumes for years.

Like I said, I don't think there's really been a proper Big Three. I mean, Toriko was popular for a while, and I think AssClass was too, but I don't think anything's matched Naruto and Bleach's prime.

Isn't Toriko ending as well? Thought I heard that somewhere. I know Gintama's still going. Maybe Togashi will emerge from hibernation and Hunter x Hunter will nope can't finish that sentence.

I prefer thinking in terms like "Top Draws" or "Main Eventers" myself [1], which currently looks like One Piece, AssClass, MHA, Haikyuu, Shokugeki no Soma, and surprisingly Black Clover. And you got a decent mid-card with titles like Gintama, World Trigger, Toriko, and PSI Kusuo Saiki. I think that leaves just the new titles that haven't yet gotten over or won't last past 2 months, Bleach, and Kochikame. [2] [1]: All Jump popularity discussions should use wrestling terms.

One Piece and Assassination Classroom are the big consistent ones. After that, it shuffles around the other various big series which include My Hero Academia. Black Clover's been getting a push as well since it fills in that battle niche, and it looks like it's been doing well for itself sales and ranking-wise, and I think Hinomaru Zumou got pushed too but I think its sales aren't as strong as MHA and BC. Straighten Up has also been doing pretty well, which is cool.

Heh, you basically hit it close to the mark. For a year or 2, I made a graph cause I was bored and genuinely curious how titles would oscillate. I haven't updated that graph in months, but I have an idea of how well series are doing now from eyeing it since there is a pattern to what gets dropped, and what's big. Series that get pushed also suddenly get a lot of color pages, which happened with MHA and Black Clover.

I tend to let this series stack up and read it in chunks, so I just read through from right before Stain. Stain and the tests are good, much better than the sports festival, happy we're actually getting an All For One, Mineta needs to chill out, and the weird votes in the popularity poll were great. MHA is... good.
