I'm talking about manga magazines like Jump, Morning, Afternoon, Young Animal, etc. I know it's easy to taking about manga series we like or dislike but how about the manga magazines; the main scores? I want to know what are your favorite manga magazines? What magazines you dislike? Any kind of magazines you wish would change? etc And I don't want to talk about the manga series that are in the magazines, I WANT TO TALK ABOUT THE MAGAZINE! Let me give you guys an example: Personally, I kind of like weekly Jump in the 80s and 90s. Even though during those time when battle series were becoming big, Jump did had a lot of series to pick out from. From action-adventure, sports and slice of life series that wasn't downgraded that much unlike now. I'm not saying all today Jump series are bad, but back then weekly Jump wasn't too greedy and gave a lot of series a chance to shine. Pretty much what I'm saying: today Jump is like Today T.V Fox network. I feel like the only series that somewhat kept their ground is Shonen Magazine. As you can tell I haven't mention any series, I'm only talking about the magazine. ________________
