I did definitely get some enjoyment from Doron but the whole time it just felt like it was trying to really ride of the demon slayer formula. I wonder how much freedom the mangaka had vs Jump and the editors trying to steer this series, especially because so much of it feels like it's set up to sell merchandise with Kusanagi transforming into hats and such on top of the weapons.
@@techh9171 Didn't get lucky at all, only blew up because of the series' extremely high quality, Ufotable wouldn't have adapted it if it weren't Demon Slayer, heck it's carrying the studio, Ufotable is super lucky to have Demon Slayer. This is pure jealousy speaking man.
Yeah Doron Dororon had a lot of potential, but like you said nothing about it stood out. Like I'm really starting to see why everyone said its basically Demon Slayer lol. I still enjoyed it while it lasted and it's sad to see it go, but I honestly saw it coming. Or maybe if was in a different magazine it'll probably done a lot better? I don't know that's just me. As for Earthchild, I didn't even know what the hell was going on anymore. That's all I have to say for that series. Both series had potential but just didn't live up to it sadly.
Earthchild's first chapter seemed promising, but everything after that was a total mess. It felt like the author was trying to cram 50 chapters worth of story into 10. It had the potential to show a grieving father trying his best to save his son from a tragic fate, but even that was squandered by chapter 2.
Earthchild chapter one was good,seeing how the normal civilian and superhero slowly falling in love,getting married and having a kid makes for a good read.I would have rather read a series about a single parent raising a child who could potentially have superpowers.
I really enjoyed Doron a lot it has potential. Don’t get me wrong I saw a lot of comparisons with other manga but I still liked it. But I’m glad the authors got his story of the ground even though it only lasted for a short period. Funny enough this story concept was similar to another manga I was reading called black torch. Sadly that ended early as well. I think mangaka Definitely need some new ideas since the manga industry wants new and fresh stories for them to stay in Serialization. Alien area is a positive for me and I agree it’s a bit slow but I hope it gets a chance to pick up before it gets canned.
EARTH CHULD cannot be added to a series... But has the potential to be a good movie... Like.. weathering with you and Your name.....for a series.. that's a no.... But for a movie.. yea.. it might work out...
Doron is a fun series. I won't miss it, but it is a solid series that I enjoy every week, which was quite nice as a lot of the other series are kinda up and down imo. Earthchild is just a mess, would've worked better as a long one shot or a 1 volume series, it's a bit disgraceful that it hasn't been cancelled yet. Haven't read a WSJ series as bad as this since I tell c which debuted in the same batch as Elusive Samurai and Witch Watch. As for the other new series in the magazine... Smartphone is aight, pretty much the definition of average imo. The characters aren't interesting and are kind of too light hearted/dumbed down (not from an intellectual pov) that it conflicts with the darker themes of the series. The story as well is just kind of boring, at times anyways. However it is a refreshing series to have in WSJ so it would be cool to see it last a while, though I wouldn't care if it got cancelled. Aliens Area I have mixed feelings about. The story is way too slow, hardly anything of importance has happened. The fight scenes are confusing, the gadgets and tech haven't been explained well enough and seem too complicated, making the fights feel like a drag and kinda boring. The episodic chapters are actually pretty decent, they've made the characters more interesting but I feel like they should've done these chapters before that little assassin arc as that was incredibly boring mainly because I didn't care about anything that was going on. Ruri Dragon is a cute slice of life with some dragon powers to add a little bit of spice, really enjoyable and a nice change of pace from the other chaotic series in the magazine
Totally agree on Aliens Area. The past few chapters have been pretty good (the parking ticket chapter was fun) but introducing the worlds strongest assassin or whatever in chapter 3 was awful. Not sure why they thought that was a good idea.
Doron Dororon is a generic shonen battle manga with a pretty unique art style; it’s just that it’s writing is really, really bad. If he was able to work with a good writer, I think that he could really make a great manga, especially if he could focus more heavily on that uniquely good art. But, for now, it’s just a dull shonen battle manga with nothing really going for it.😕 Earthchild had just ATROCIOUS pacing and a total lack of direction at the beginning of the series. Now that it’s been able to get its footing, it’s actually been a pretty well-written series with some surprisingly effective art. Although it’s nothing crazy, I will absolutely remember it more than Doron Dororon. Some scenes really did have an effect on me, more than I can say for PPPPPP, another manga in the magazine right now. Definitely better than DD. For the other new series: Super Smartphone is actually pretty decent. It’s gradually getting better with every chapter. I truly hope that it continues to improve; I’m just ready for a good thriller/intelligent series to be in Jump again. They really bring a whole different aspect to the magazine than any other kind of series that Jump usually serializes. Ruri Dragon is very obviously the best of the bunch. Adorable with some absolutely wonderful art. Great writing, really expressive character expressions, and some lovely scenes already with only 6 chapters released. I feel so sorry for the mangaka with his indefinite hiatus due to illness; he absolutely deserves a place in the magazine and his series among the new hits of Shonen Jump in 2022- alongside Akane-banashi. Oh, and if you’re curious, I read everything in Shonen Jump, many series from Jump+ and SQ as well as Young Jump, Shonen Sunday, Shonen Magazine, and some monthly. I just absolutely adore manga and am pretty much addicted to everything Shonen Jump.😅😁 If you ever want to ask about anything related to Shonen Jump or manga in general, I’m your guy.😊 Currently getting down when series had their first cover to answer your question. I’ll comment under the Akane video when I get enough info.
Doron seemed pretty generic tbh and after like chapter 4 i completely lost interest in it and stopped reading and I’ve just been waiting for the end to come
Doron doron is like vanilla ice cream, but you run out of milk and had to use water

Demon slayer got really lucky that it got the anime adaption it’s below avg at best.

boku no hiro should be the first manga to cancel

Eartchild was a cool concept

Honestly, as generic as it was, this would be pretty good if it was adapted into a one-time movie like Promare
NAHHH DORON WAS A PRETTY FUN READ

This is an orgy of evidence that shonen jump is just as bad with his new creation just like Disney is bad at dealing with Marvel and Star Wars
