Promotional Video for Akabane Honeko no Bodyguard Live Action

Mankichi Togawa · Apr 18, 2024

In my cope of "every manga except Gachiakuta has had a LCP lately":

To Your Eternity: actually in an even worse situation than Gachiakuta in this regard. Did it have a LCP in 2022??
Gachiakuta: 58 issues ago
Akabane Honeko: 30 issues ago
Blue Lock: 18 issues ago (WTF situation since this is the top performer of the magazine. Well, it's getting a LCP and cover next issue)
Goddess Cafe Terrace: 17 issues ago
Hajime no Ippo: 16 issues ago
Medaka Kuroiwa: 12 issues ago
Ao no Miburo: 11 issues ago
Four Knights of Apocalypse: 10 issues ago
Kanan-sama: 9 issues ago
Seitokai: 7 issues ago
Edens Zero: 6 issues ago
Kanojo Okarishimasu: 5 issues ago
A Couple of Cuckoos: 4 issues ago
Ranger Reject: 3 issues ago
Shangri-La Frontier: 2 issues ago
Matchmaking of the Amagami Household: 1 issue ago (it's probably the manga with most LCP so far in the last two years)

Second metric: number of LCPs in 2023 AND 2024:

Matchmaking of the Amagami Household: 6 LCPS (yep, insane number of LCPs for Amagami)
Four Knights of Apocalypse: 6 LCPS
Shangri-La Frontier: 6 LCPS
Kanojo Okarishimasu: 5 LCPS
A Couple of Cuckoos: 5 LCPS
Blue Lock: 4 LCPS (supposedly this is the top performer of WSM)
Ranger Reject: 4 LCPS
Edens Zero: 4 LCPS
Goddess Cafe Terrace: 3 LCPS
Hajime no Ippo: 3 LCPS
Medaka Kuroiwa: 3 LCPS
Seitokai: 3 LCPS
Ao no Miburo: 2 LCPS
Kanan-sama: 2 LCPS
Akabane Honeko: 1 LCP
Gachiakuta: 1 LCP
To Your Eternity: 0 LCPS

In conclusion, WSM EiC is giving Gachiakuta a very crappy treatment. And supposedly he was the editor of Gachiakuta lol

PS: I wonder if Mayonaka will get a LCP soon. Should probably get one by volume 4 release, but I'm surprised it still hasn't had a LCP so far, specially when romcoms get LCP pretty easily.

To your eternity did get 1 LCP in 2022 to celebrate the airing of season 2 but that’s about it

ThisIsIt · Apr 19, 2024

Author probably just don't like doing color page I think. Nothing more

Tymano · Apr 19, 2024

The fumetsu author also has some pretty bad health problems from what I remember, so her not doing any color pages is likely due to that. Gachiakuta getting very few colors is a mystery though.

good research, although I would take into account that Urana Kei sensei has been absent from the magazine quite a few times, last year he had, if my memory serves me right, quite a few absences, so don't take him into account for this reason.
