So I got the Jump app for well spending six months inside and I've devoured Chainsawman, Spy X Family, Jujutsu Kaisen, MHA. Wasn't a huge fan of Neverland after the first arc. What else is good?

Angry Lobster posted:Dorohedoro, but it's not available on the app, only in the website, as far as I know. Was gonna wait for the anime for that. loving netflix. Silver2195 posted:I enjoyed some completed series, including Black Cat and Claymore. Read both of those. Really dug them though so like, not a bad thought; thanks. And couldn't hurt to reread. I'd forgotten about Black Cat entirely. Most of the archive stuff from the 2000s I'll probably have read or tried. Probably shoulda said. So I guess older than that or fairly new. Is Mashle good? I'm real sick of strong dude beats magic but is it funny enough to try anyway?

Mraagvpeine posted:Doctor Stone, maybe Golden Kamuy if it's on the app. The first didn't gel with me. The second's not on the app but I did like the anime. Rigged Death Trap posted:Mashle is good so far and the premise is a vehicle to deliver gags more than anything else. Its a light read anyways. Rad that's what I wanted to hear. Thanks all. Also man. Yu Yu Hakusho has volumes on there for sale but no browsable chapters. Lame.

Uncle Khasim posted:Seems weird they’d go to all that effort to explain the 24fps power if he’s out Jujutsu I feel like we're gonna get a reversal of some kind. One or two people dying? Yeah maybe. All of them including those sisters? Seems suss.

Brought To You By posted:Basically, I think it works by taking Zen'in's field of view and anything that doesn't operate at 24fps gets shoved into a frame he can freely manipulate as long as he's touching the target. The first time he uses this wasn't clear because it looks like he grabs Dagon from across the room but I guess he had actually snuck up on it before Nanamin and Maki could attack. So anything shy of a stationary object or an old movie can be imprisoned at will. Yeah Also narratively those sisters are too unexplored/interesting to die. Or stay dead anyway

Irritated Goat posted:I loved One Piece but knowing Oda helped Toriko’s author get back after a pedo charge is a bridge too far. Same thing with Watsuki. gently caress all 3 of them for being or vouching for monsters. I mean lets be honest. Going to bat for one of them could maybe be friendship before ethics, two says Oda's a creep too.

As someone who read Rave Master then completely forgot it existed, reading Fairy Tail was an exercise in "why does this seem so familiar" for literal years.

My main impression of Red Hood so far is I really want a game (video or tabletop) in this setting with these designs but the story and characters aren't grabbing me. It's kind of the polar opposite of Candy Flurry.

Akanebanashi rapidly becoming my favourite series in Jump despite me loving the gently caress out of Ayashimon as well.Brought To You By posted:I honestly can't think of a good reason to go murdering civilians outside the mouth girl clearly enjoying wanton slaughter. Maybe the bad blood between the mountain village and the offshot that left is just that malicious Since that first chapter it really feels like "Oh poo poo I didnt mean to make them come off that bad poo poo poo poo poo poo" move from the author.

Ayashimon getting killed is confusing and saddening. And yeah couldn't see a good way to end things there. In better things, this week's Elusive Samurai is absolutely stellar. RIP Shokan Sakamoto : lmao and oh no. One Piece: aww yeah Undead Unluck: this arc has gotten me back in on this, but this is basically Rip again. Immediately afterwards. The Rip fight was good. But again?

muscles like this! posted:I do kind of wonder when they learned Ayashimon got the cut because that would explain getting the ersatz end boss fight where the opponent copied Doppo's end move and we got to see Maruo defeat it. Sort of. I've liked most of the fights enough anyway but yeah. That said this is probably the last of it before we get into the meat of the arc and Megumi's sister and poo poo.

I agree with this but I actually liked late Naruto more than I'm liking late MHA. MHA has this nagging feeling of acknowledging how hosed things are, but also refusing to budge or really do anything with it that makes the whole thing really predictable and trite in a way that Naruto, with all it's betrayals and shifting politics and random double crosses and enemy defections didn't. Also I liked Moriking, but it was absolutely a manga with an expiration date and it mercifully ended before it ran itself into the ground. Be interested if the author gets another gig to see if they can do something else.

gimme the GOD drat candy posted:despite the several godawful swerves in late naruto, it ended well enough. it was as much about forgiveness and looking ahead as it was winning a big fight. by contrast mha is entirely about winning a big fight. there's no need to change society if you beat up all the bad guys and put them in prison forever. Yeah this put into words what I felt much better.

On Claymore I also encourage people to read the author's previous series Angel Densetsu which is a high school romcom farce. As someone who read Angel Densetsu when it was going it was a bit of a leap there.ZepiaEltnamOberon posted:Why am I typing so much about Akane-banashi, I have no loving clue.

Ytlaya posted:Oh yeah, Angel Densetsu is great and IMO better than Claymore overall. It's just a universally great comedy. Claymore is still good, but can be kind of hit or miss in parts. Angel Densetsu even somehow has some protoClaymore monster designs despite being a non supernatural high school comedy. ZepiaEltnamOberon posted:

As long as Fabricant and Akane Banashi stick around, of the new stuff those are head and shoulders above everything else. Hell, head shoulders and everything down to the loving knees above everything else in Akane Banashi's case.ConanThe3rd posted:It was boring was what it was. The audience has absolutely moved on from this sort of Kakashi vs Proto-Team Seven "Friendship in the face of dire adversity beats all" nonsense. I'd argue it can work, just this was done really sloppily. Naruto for example gave us a few chapters before the bell test to know Naruto, Sasuke and Sakura which was needed for the test to actually work. This just dumped right into it and didnt do anything new. It was poorly executed and rote. Edit: also a little surprised the EIC let the name through since Jump Plus is already running Choujin X.

TheHan posted:Fabricant 100 is solidly my favorite new manga. Ashibi's been a really fun protagonist and the art style is so bouncy, this guy draws some of the most beautiful people. For real. I don't want to like a Jump series this much this early, that way leads to heartbreak. But it loving owns.

Still think Ayashimon's first chapter was an all timer. Which might have hurt it a bit in hindsight.
