| Oooh, things are getting pretty damn interesting now. >:) |
| So Moritaka and Miho won't be dating or even just talking to each other until their dreams come true. But when it does come true, they will go straight to marriage, aren't they skipping too many steps? These characters are so unrealistic that you can only find in animes. They should at least talk to each other and get to know each other better given that they both know that they like other. |
 |
| Miyoshi kick!!! |
| Another fine episode. I wonder if they will be making an anime by season 3. |
 |
| I like how they show ichigo and naruto and luffy all the time <3 things are getting serious here, but the editor seemed to really like them, he was even missing sleep for them! am i the only one who finds nuuzima eji annoying? what is up with all the random noises |
| Sweet development! That talk with that editor-in-chief was quite interesting and now that Takagi's gf is hanging around things might get a bit more interesting as well! Let's see what's next but this is getting quite good for sure! |
 |
| Hattori's a good guy. His face when he said that the name's were terrible was priceless xD Miyoshi's a keeper. She's kinda creepy. So the chief editor knew Mashiro uncle and seemed kinda close to him. Next episode, it look like Nizuma will be in the same building as them xD |

 |
| shit, hattori is a bro. but, i wonder what the tittle of this anime, "bakuman," has to do with the story? is it going to be the name of their most successful manga? |
 |
| -They make Seinen material and the are good at making them. Should have targeted for adults. -I don't know what's up with the pace? I think it was ok. Also, what's with this Eiji fanboyism? Hold your horses, geez. -Oh yea, Miyoshi's freaking hot. |
| Hattori is cool, I hope he doesn't get fired or dropped as their editor ;___; |
| the official MAL hall of fame/cursed comments is now open for business - you are welcome to PM me any potential quotes to include |
Impala said: Also, what's with this Eiji fanboyism? Hold your horses, geez. I've been wondering the same thing. He's a cool character but can be a little annoying too sometimes... It was so funny when Miyoshi asket Takagi if he thinks about marrying her and he answered "not at all" without even thinking about it! And then Miyoshi kicked him! She is little violent person, gotta say that |
| "Oh, I wasn't trying to be funny.. I would've put a 'Haha' at the end of it." |
| How the fuck did this series sell in Shounen Jump (which is essentially Jack)? The protagonist(s) are nothing like what they need to be to sell. They're completely ordinary, which was apparently the shortfalls of Two Earths and One in a Hundred Million. |
| why is pineapple girl in every episode jfc she's going to be the reason why I don't watch the sequels. Impala said: ^^^^^^^^^^-They make Seinen material and the are good at making them. |
 |
| great episode! i didn't like the idea of making them write something "mainstream" but i'm glad they will be able to write something original and what they like. that's the way it should be! |
| They have a gift for seinen! Note the SciFi and the harem ideas lol |
| the editor was nice the gf was okay |
 |
| I really like their editor! |
 |
on 
| Beautiful the last 3 minutes of th episode, with a absurd idea from a manga!!!! ;) |
| Ahhh...a girl in the manga studio!? I wonder if the editor will regret pretty much offering them a deal. |
  |
| "People being able to change their bodies with their thoughts?" Sounds like a premise that could get ecchi real fast. I'd read it. Didn't Miyoshi promise last episode not to bother Akito about how much time had to spend on manga? And then she ran this whole "Just a teensy weensy little break?" bit... I'm still confused as to why they can namedrop and show Dragon Ball, Naruto, and One Piece all over the place yet they call the magazine "Shounen Jack". Woooow...it's almost like I've been saying about their ideas in these episode discussions. The themes of Moritaka and Akito's manga aren't "Jack-like." "A manga only needs to be interesting. If it's interesting, it will get serialized." Then why are there so many self-published web manga nowadays? I'm really curious as to how Moritaka's uncle really died. Was it truly overwork, or could everyone just be in denial over the suicide of a depressed man who kept getting rejected from his passion no matter how hard he tried? "What's the difference between us and Eiji?" "Well, for one, Eiji is severely autistic. If the two of you would make crow noises while you worked, maybe you'd be better." "Are you thinking of marrying me right now?" Akito's proper response would have been "How could I not be with an ass like that?" It seems like NHK was feeling a bit more fanservicy this episode. "None of these are interesting! They're too Jack-like." What do you bastards want? Maybe transfer them over to the seinen magazine...? Though I guess trying to make them a cult manga that half of Jack's readers like isn't a bad plan. I've been borderline 7/8 on my score since the last episode was a little slow, but things definitely got more interesting toward the end of this episode. Keeping my score at an 8. |
| "No, son, you may not have your body pillow at the dinner table!" |
| Hattoris laughter is just awkward |
| Nice episode, looks like Takagi's relationship is taking off.. but who in their right minds would reject a nice girl like that |
| I'm Bruneian and I like anime. And Manchester United. And fat cats. |
| Lol all those Big 3 posters at the Editorial floor |
 |
| Good episode. Nice to see Hattori try to strategize a way for Mashiro and Takagi to shithouse their way to a successful serialization after he realized how mediocre they both were in trying to go for the mainstream manga style. He found them to be at their best with more unorthodox content that has the potential to build a cult fanbase around it, and he sees the amount of potential these two have already before they even started high school, so might as well try to gamble on this method where they go the reverse of mainstream pretty much. Also, it was dope seeing Miyoshi interact more with the guys and even show up at the studio too. She even tries to support them through little things like preparing coffee for them or just communicating with them to put them a bit at ease when they're not at hard work mode. Her moments with the blunt Takagi were fun too. |
| So nice to see Bleach, OP, Naruto right on the editorial floor. |
  |
| I know nothing about the production of manga but I guess they just have to aim for Seinen not Shounen. |
| LOL hattori making them go back and forth, but at least he found their golden road. kaya kinda annoying but she at least much useful than before. and takagi is just bad with women >< i think that even mashiro is much better. |
| Takagi could easily create sci-fi bestsellers, but prefers to create comics for teenagers. Just why? |
| I hate everyone equally |
| School days already exists, no need to create it again |
| I hate everyone equally |
| Another great episode |
 |
| I like there duo dynamic more than the trio with her honestly |
| Inhales oxygen |
