Anyway with Dr. Stone ending next week, I am wondering about Earthchild.
Wondering what, exactly? Doesn't a major series ending mean more room for everyone else?

[up] I was wondering specifically if it would rise up to take its place/niche/etc. when I made that comment.

If Doctor Stone is about to end I should probably find time to pick up where I left often and do a binge.

Not every niche need to be filled right away. Like we haven't had any new sport manga for awhile now. Earthchild seem to aim for the drama niche rather than science fiction like Dr. Stone.

Still feels weird that there’s no sports manga in JUMP currently. Blue Box kinda counts, I guess, but it’s more of a romance really.

So, Akanebanashi 4… I guess we have our big rival, now? Not much else to say, the pros and cons are basically the same as last week. Waiting to see how this evolves.

Earthchild is such a mess of inconsistence. Like by chapter 3 we still can't see what kind of series it will be. Adding the mom still alive twist this early is also a big mistake.

I don't know I think that quickly lifts up a common complaint I've seen towards the series about the wife dying in chapter one.

I have no complaint about that, but yeah, I’m still not sure what the series is supposed to be about. Feels like we’re still in the prologue, after all.

I appreciate that Earthchild is taking its time to estabilish things, instead of blowing as many loads as possible in the first chapters in order to survive in the rankings. It's a pattern that ruined quite a lot of series that had potential, in my opinion, so I appreciate whenever an author decides to take a risk and break it.

That said, in this particular case, I'm not sold yet. A lot depends on how good the child will be as a character, when we get past his infancy. Also on what the actual main conflict will be.

From what I recall the way Jump operates puts slow-paced stories at a huge disadvantage.

If you don't already have a sizable audience by the first volume then you are dead on arrival.

Nice to see Sakamoto Days is doing numbers.

I heard UU might be at risk of cancellation, is that true?

At this stage, that seems unlikely. It’s too far along for that.

With Dr. Stone ending I don’t think something relatively established like UU is going to get cancelled soon.

Akane-banashi funnily enough ends up introducing a rival character, and he is quite interesting! Kinda ridiculous how apparently he’s the only guy that the old guy allowed to be promoted in the past 10 years or so? Whar a snob.

Sakamoto Days has the new girl sew together a parachute while in freefall. Hell yes.

[up][up]Not quite, long running series can still get the axe. Just look at Shokugeki.

Feels weird to not have Dr. Stone this week.

Doron Dororon is following the action shonen formula to a tee. We have Dora overloading the power testing machine and we get introduced to the Big Bad Ensemble. It's still nothing special but it works. Touma and Heisuke are good additions to the cast.

Akane-banashi: Aww, always nice to see supportive parents. And Akane gets introduced to her reverse harem fellow rakugoka apprentices.

The examiners in Sakamoto Days have basically given up and just made their applicants play tail tag.

I feel like the Sorting Algorithm of Evil in Mashle is getting a tad overdone. The story isn't that good when it tries to become more relatively serious.

I really Earthchild today. I hope for more of these parenting chapters.

Hey, Raizer, you had them out of order since Covers and Color pages don't have ranking.
