----------------------------------------
This episode was ok. It closely follows the manga.

I liked some of the jokes. Azuki in maid outfit was so cute. And Shujin packet in his sleeping bag looked like a caterpillar :D

Two Earths sure are interesting, I want to read it in real!! And Eiji's story aswell. Haha :)

Just the Jack instead of Jump will be more and more annoying in next eps...

The raw came out not too long ago, so you should double check online.

As for the episode, it really is following the manga quite closely. Because it's following the manga, though, it does feel a little slow paced. Laughed at some of the jokes here and there :P

It looks like Eiji will be a good rival. And Mashiro is a serious perfectionist; his drawings don't look bad, but it's not good enough for his standards :P

-Haha Moritaka ( Saiko) having his first L moment :DD (sitting in a chair like that)

-Potato chipss..? no no.. Moritaka doesn't eat potato chips.. he's a MAD BURGER EATER hahaha :D


-Koogy totally looks like Sasuke from Naruto. Can't wait to see him more animated so i can add him to my similar character list.

-Shuujin in a sleeping bag is so cute and funny :3

-Handshake of hard work .. aww :O

They should have named Jump ''Junk'' .. it kinda sounds the same and would have not been that annoying to hear :)

Pretty good episode again!

I guess they got denied of course and have to re drawining it or rewriting it.
Since I don't read the manga I don't know.

Another great episode. kaya is head over heels for shuujin now. even if he made that silly mistake, doesnt really matter, since she is cute.

i also liked the honest comments miho made about her being shy when it comes to boys.

+1 for miho in maid outfit
+1 for kaya-shuujin moments

boy, i love this anime!

Oh Iwase, you radiated so much loveliness just by sitting and reading a book.
If I was Takagi, I would definitely go out with her. Miyoshi just has that dumb accent.

Just read it :< Although It's a bit odd to read a manga... about manga more so than an anime about manga.
I like how the anime follows very closely with the manga, that's always a plus for me

You should read the manga first, it's so much better!!!

Don't get me wrong, I love this show, but the manga is soooo good.
Best manga by far!!!

Why???
Why, would Jump not back this anime?

The whole "Jack" thing is garbage, and it's only gonna make later episodes worse...
(don't read this spoiler if you haven't read the manga)


Jump really mucked this one up imo!

They should've done it like all the others, made a Jump Tour special to see what people like and didn't like, and released the series from there.

Then Viz would've simulcasted it, and it wouldn't have taken 3 yrs to get a stateside release, which I'm sure we won't get it for a while.

And, Viz probably won't pick it up now b/c it's not a Jump anime.

Look at Rosario...Funi?
And when did Rosario come out?
Exactly my point.

Though this manga seems to be more popular than Rosario already, so maybe I'll be wrong, hopefully.

I mean look at Cross Game...who woulda thunk it?

Episode was nice, more bromance development, and I'm sorry, but Takagi's crying was very cheesy and unauthentic.

In the manga it had impact, and I even teared up, I was laughing!

Next should be great!!

I think every story they plan should have an animated scene. That would be pretty cool. :)

But "Jack" is still weird to me. At least they kept the manga names.

Agreed, that would be nice. I figure they didn't show any for the Two Earths story though because that might be the main story they're going to end up working on.

Ok, what is the deal with Jack and Jump thing? Why are people making such a big deal out of it? Well if it has anything to do with spoiler then don't bother explain it.

Anyway as for the episode, it was great enough to make me want to see the next one so bad.

I agree. And I think (i haven't read the manga) that they will get through some hardships before they achieve their goals. Still I hope for the best for them.
This episode was again fantastic and I looooved the story ideas and ofc their art. This kids are doing a fantastic job already! This series gives me such a great feeling while watching it! :)

They are trying to get their manga published in "Weekly Shonen Jack" magazine, which is a parody of "Weekly Shonen Jump" magazine.

This manga is published in Jump, as well as all the other top hits such as Bleach, Gin Tama, Naruto, etc. etc.

Those manga I mentioned have been turned into anime, and have all been backed by Jump(hence the Shonen Jump above anime titles like Bleach, etc.)

This anime has not been backed by Jump, well at least not enough for them to be able to use the Jump name when talking about the magazine/company.

I for one think this is idiotic, especially considering that this whole series centers around Jump, and the fact that they use the real names when talking about other manga just makes it that much more pathetic, imo.

If you can't use the Jump name, why wouldn't you just parody everything else, at least that way it would be funny, and a running gag.

But now it's just stupid, and will further complicate more episodes in the future.

Hope this helps!

I liked the pacing in this episode. The Two Earths story is a bit interesting, but it did seem typically shounen in a way. I guess that's why they're aiming for Shounen Jack.

As for the whole Shounen Jump vs. Shounen Jack thing, it's probably as simple as Bakuman's anime adaptation being a sure win. It is a series about drawing manga after all, it certainly has a 50% chance of being a failure when it comes to the ratings and the amount of people tuning in (due to lack of interest).

This series needs to get its ass in gear and fast. I am so sick and tired of it dragging things out. Five episodes in and they are just now calling up Jump? There are ten tankouban out there to adapt. They do not have to worry about running into filler. Fucking hell, Bakuman, GET ON WITH IT!

They're all just upset because they're calling Shounen Jump magazine Jack. Honestly, I don't see the big deal. Why get all bent out of shape because of one stupid name?

Nice episode, as usual. The pacing seemed faster than previous episodes, but not necessarily rushed. I'm glad they showed more of Miho in this episode, too. Her friend Kaya also seems interesting.
