Mag Talk Jump SQ - News and Discussion

[Shinuki no Reborn]

JUMP SQUARE (NEWS AND DISCUSSION)

Welcome to the new thread for news and discussions about the JumpSQ. magazine!

JumpSQ. is a monthly manga magazine published by Shueisha since 2007, it was created as a substitute of the former Monthly Shonen Jump that run from 1970 to 2007 and has "Supreme Quality" as slogan, it quickly became one of the most popular shounen magazines in Japan and has a current print circulation of 151.000 copies per issue. JumpSQ is a magazine part of the shounen demographic with a focus in the male teenager audience but SQ always had a more mature approach to shounen mangas compared to Shonen Jump, something evident with series like To Love-ru Darkness or Dokyuu H-entai HxEros, famous for very lewd fanservice and uncensored nudity.

Wow, looking at that current lineup, I'm only following Kono Oto Tomare. Hopefully they'll get a nice new romance in there like Taishou Otome was back a couple years ago.

They're probably gonna advertise the shit of a new series by an established author, especially in a smaller mag like this.

Nah, the last live action movie this year was officially released worldwide, of course there will be some people that will talk just like when Build King was announced but most already moved on or don't even care.

 

[Thundercat27]

most already moved on or don't even care.

Damn, I guess people forget everything, even childporn huh.

The man's poor for being addicted to it like drugs, he didn't film them or rape a child himself. It's horrific how it's produced but what would you expect?
for him to not having a job for the rest of his life?(Imagine the avarage income people wih your answer) Locked in an asylum or a prison for the rest of his life? Will you forgive him if he donates half his fortune to stopping child porn?
Let the man move on and improve his life and himself.

Oh you're gonna love it. It has the potential to be as good as FMA:B or HXH2011 if done correctly and with a good pace and if anything Lidenfilms proved to have good storyboarders for the Tokyo Revengers anime. Now we just need Sakuga animators.

The view is that people feel he isnt repetent or in realization that what he did was wrong or that he is improving himself.

Also some people view taking pleasure in harm against kids as something unforgivable perhaps from their own personal experience...

We don't really have any measure about it, all we know it what's the content of his chapters just like we didn't know of his crimes until they were revealed. I can relate to the personal experience, been there myself almost twice unfortunately and the thing is I know how hard it is to free myself as well...as long as I don't forgive both myself for being helpless in the situation AND the other person I will stay a prisoner of my own past and of someone who's not in my life anymore...and that person improved himself. (Damn I went way off topic but Kenshin is also about redemption that very few people know about. He's not screaming "Hey I'm repenting for my sins here!" to the world, he just does quietly and to his close people)
