Hard-Boiled Cop and Dolphin
What the hell why so early?
national holiday in Japan next Monday so Jump comes out early this week
So we're just Full battle shonen now it seems
if it's as kino as this chapter the more the better
I need this series to LIVE
What are the chances the volumes release in english? Some of the new jump stuff has come out but others haven't
where's the image from? GIGA?
>What are the chances the volumes release in english?
I can see Viz skipping the series due to the police content
so it depends on Japanese sales - gangbusters and we get English Dolphin release
first volume is out November 4th so will have to wait and see what happens
How are such things decided anyway? Like spy x family has English volumes released but yozakura undead unluck or mashle don't

Would a stun gun even work underwater?
Probably not
there is always 1 to 2 years delay with Japan
What's the Nips' obsession with the term harded-boiled?
It sounds cool
Pretty sure Kaiji will become part of the main cast, just like Kanzaki.
It doesn't. Any person will think of eggs when they hear it.
Probably. He had the flashback and did the wrong thing for the right reason. It's not a coincidence that one of the early chapters was about poaching and now this is brought up here
I think it's a mix of sales, marketability and licensing
from the series you mentioned Spy x Family is selling the best in Japan (Volume 5 outsold My Hero Volume 28 opening week and had 5.5 million in circulation at the end of August) so Viz would want to jump on that series especially with the pseudo-Cold War aesthetic and Shuiesha would use the high sales to demand a higher licensing fee
the others haven't hit 50k opening week in Japan yet, so Viz wouldn't be that interested in them nor would Shuiesha want to push them for a Western release
Viz also have access to page view metrics for the series on their site so they can see which ones would be worth the printing cost
Gag manga into battle shonen confirmed true combo
we Souboutei now
Wait, that's the dame guy who made Beelzeflop and Hungry Axe, right?
How the fuck did he get another change to blow?
