He's gotten better with colors. Red Hood had the issue of looking like sickly pastel in its CPs and volume covers.
pg 004 - 005

Another viking series what happened to the last viking series
page 007
We don't talk about THAT series, ok?
Page 8 - 9
Cool doublespreads in this. Lets just hope he learned some lessons from Red Hood.

this is your heroic male MC
GODAMMIT I FUCK UP
otr won
nue lost
This is looking pretty good so far, I like that he's starting with characterization so we connect to the mc quickly, just feels like a big improvement on Red Hood.
would warm him up with my dick
Honestly my only problem so far is it's a bit too Kimetsu clone-y. Older brother doing chores in the snow and everyone loves him, little sister character, muh fire breath powers. But that's just superficial, if the premise is used well and the writing is good this is as good a way to start as any. Also I like that the mc does want to go to war but is also realistic about what he'll be allowed to do.
The pacing is normal, it's as you would expect from a first chapter. I hope he learned his lesson though and won't be doing some shitty exam arc that flops and kills the whole manga
The MC literally wants to die
cool art, but the setting & characters are boring as hell.
the giant booba hag looks like a kid with that babyface.
axed in 19 chapters
Axecore
I really like the art and his battles have potential as he showed before in the last manga.
I'll be honest:
this still kinda sucks.
I think this is great, why don't you guys like it?
Give me actual reasons
It's formulaic but still a good beginning, also lol at how he had the mc leave his town asap after people were screaming for RH mc to leave the village for multiple chapters.
Let's see how long it will last
Need better scans. The quality being so shit is bringing my enjoyment down.
But I like it though
Its very simplistic in design, but I really like how the sword is drawn. Hope it stays like that, there's something refreshing about it
the author loves twink mc
nobody could beat it when it came to axes
Red Hood but worse
Ichi the Witch but worse
Like I previously said
fire punch but the fire is a loli
viking shit because it is fotm on japan
breathing shit just like kimetsu
he really doesn't want to get axed does he, the pacing is still terrible just like red hood
Also I don't like the characters they are bland and boring
U19 AGAIN
It was... fine I guess.
Otr's design is ass and he's going for a shotaconbait design for some reason, I blame Matsui for this.
It was a better ch 1 than ichis if we are being real
So many years and he's still shit at action, amazing, really.
He's better than most ongoing manga like nue.
Kawaguchifags already on the
if it fails its muh editor's fault
bandwagon.
When the only thing he fixed was the pacing. Everything else sucks just as much but now its just KnY but worse
Nue is shit too.
Did your post get deleted?
Hopefully he doesn't do some shitty exam arc this time around
I blame Matsui
But all of Kawaguchi's works has shotaconbait. How is it someone else's fault?
shota mc
fine
shota mc exposing his belly in a tight as fuck armor that gives him female hips for some reason
Matsui
I didn't want to spoil the fire being a loli so I deleted it lol
You eerily sound like a salty shit editor who could never land a decent series and who ended up being transfered even in a struggling magazine...
i'm so tired of viking shit
I'm one of the anons giving shit already but I do have to agree it is at least better than half of the magazine. Fixing the action would be enough to keep it around despite the other flaws
btw im not dumping next week. i fuck up too much. i will only do it when no one wants to
Honestly just the art is putting like 90% of the magazine to shame, i'm honestly doubtful this time it's getting axed at all seeing the state of wekely shonen. They just need a new manga.
just the art is putting like 90% of the magazine to shame
It's the first chapter, wait until like chapter4-5 when the weekly grind starts.
why does he make all his mcs faggots
He's a kid, do you want him to look like a bodybuilder or what?
Learned under Horikoshi
>shota mc
You know there is more to it. Stop being desingenuous. That design easily falls under the author's sick fetish and considering how he is trying very hard to not get axed again it was him more likely than not
I want him to be more like goku/gon fuck even Gash
one thing he learned tho, not make the mc stay in the fucking village and refuse to leave for 6 chapters, baffling fucking decision
Because he learn from his master
So could his sister be the ice hero then?
will probably be evil at first. I think water will be the second hero to appear
Kawaguchi already leapfrog to be the best jump artist in the current run. I will give fight choreography to kgb atleast
Just need Hori recommendations an this one will be guaranteed alive.
midget
big sword
fire powers
Playing it safe.
This shit is just Ice Head Gill with better art, U19 bait for sure.
Yup axe soon
way too fast
Ice kingdom
Forest kingdom
generic inner demon
generic characters
So ass
midget
He's a kid
What is up with anons obsessed with axe in this thread? Talk about mean-spirit.
Not very good. Also, (I'm sure it's unintentional), but one of the vikings in this chapter bears iconography from a Scandinavian neonazi movement.
I liked it.
KAWAGUCHI IS BACK
Where's the one shot of this?
Also
Only one Big boob character
Hope he fixes this later
There's no one-shot.
Interesting, I thought every manga series has at least a one-shot/pilot chapter before being serialized
>breathing shit just like kimetsu but not schizophrenia and its actually real
Otr won
Reminder what killed red hood is the exam arc
Glinka & Glüna?
Hope he recycles Grimm's design sometime later.
Why would you have a slutty outfit on a clearly skinny shota MC? That doesn't work. Especially not this day and age
i think stretching the prologue to a 6 chapter arc did more damage. I have never seen a prologue that didnt resolve its story arc in ch 1
I think this is the outfit he'll actually wear.
It was charming. Too bad about the execution
Hope the MC is better than blacked clover one. That one was so bad they axed it out of jump
Action scenes needed to be extended.
The MC CLEAVES ALL THE ENEMIES WITH A SINGLE SLASH is pretty boring.
Taguchi
i think he will only power up against stronger boss
I hope he frequently burns off all his clothes and we get to see him naked every fight
So is this just that one Viking manga from last year about the axe or whatever
I'll hijack you pathetic bait to say this: Black Clover now got to the point of cucking the MC for the rival nobody likes. I'm glad it became irrelevant, Tabata and his editor deserve it
Thats the base outfit, his henshin will be burning his top
What happened? Also Noelle > Asta
his ultmate power will be burning his pants as well
What's with all the Vikings lately, is something going on in Japan?
A somewhat niche game came out in Japan 3 years ago called ELDEN RING.
I know he was his assistant and all but it's crazy how much kawaguchi apes horikoshi stylistically.
Asta got ko'd by the main villain again and gave Yuno anti-magic and one of his swords before being teleported away.
Noelle
She got a rushed fight before being reduced to a background character. Seems they got pissed she won the last two popularity polls kek
hopefully we will get the flash back of Bonkers and the big cocked giant that destroyed his village
Its great though. If only he can remove those muscle bitches
eh, this is chapter 1. even OP, bleach only have one punch-one slash fight too..
Gon is scrawny for most of HxH and has legions of fujo fans who want to see him get railed in the ass
I'm glad it became irrelevant
Its never relevant in the first place
Yeah, Noelle is a Queen. The Anime did her favours and her growth is great. Honestly Noelle is the real underdog, specially in the movie, she kicked ass without her powers
Holy fuck, the author's such a massive fucking faggot, and it seems he learned little.
Cool helmet
pros:
-the art overall
-setting, ice/winter
-Vikings
-overall wholesome story beat
cons:
-No memorable characters
-basic power system
-basic conflict (avatar like again, really you just switch it up?)
-No comedy (i love comedy-battle) or not land if he even try
-MC design overall, and the armour maybe he will improve.
how many chapters and arcs we will spend on that fortress???? hope you learn your lesson, kawaguchi!!
I really like this page.
Cutie
She's a great character stuck in a terrible series
His character design feels random, what the FUCK was that disgusting "muscle mommy" gorilla thing, it had a baby head, did this faggot's fetish worsen?
Does this guy even learn anything from redhood?
Only thing I can see he learned is to make it a little more generic and improved art, otherwise he's repeating the same shit.
who cares
there's no competition at all, there's no way this gets axed when roboco nue kiyoshi embers himaten kill blue and other stuff exist
He learned a lot
better art
focus on mc early on
muscle woman is a very minor character instead of co-mc
get mc out of home village immediately
accomplish something and move the plot along in chapter 1
Roboco has comedy protection
babyface
all his stuff is like that idk the appeal
Yeah the tiny head is the worst part, if he gave her better proportions and she was just big and tough that would be better.
Going for a shotabait design will be a good plan if the mangaka taps into his inner bushido spirit and triples down on manifesting ancient nipponese samurai shudō energy in the form of enticing shots of the main boy with his belly exposed and moe moments
>muscle woman is a very minor character instead of co-mc
That was a mistake, but can be fixed later
i dont think so, the movie flopped that badly might get the eic talking
Didn't we just have a viking manga a little bit ago that got axed
The presence of disgusting retarded Gorilla women ruin what otherwise would be a shota loli manga
little bit ago was 2 years
>muscle woman is a very minor character instead of co-mc
Amazing how you guys have brainwashed yourselves into believing Grim was a muscle woman.
There werent vikings in elden ring
2023 was 16 years ago
boring
The MC can cut in half an enemy officer chapter 1
Oh, I'm already seeing the massive powercreep.
ice kingdom
forest kingdom
Jesus, come on.
MC goes warrior mode way too fast for someone who is just a twink cook just a second ago.
Nigga just barely get his new power, it works better if its caught both the MC and the enemy off guard but he seems pretty unfazed.
Elden Ring was generic Medieval Europe, bro.
Most battle shonen have the hero obliterate some dude in the first chapter, doesn't really mean anything in the long run.
Take it up with Miyazaki. He literally said "norse mythology."
He didn't obliterate just a random dude, he was commanding troops. I can only see this scaling upwards with him in 10 chapters destroying so legendary monster or something, this is how the powercreep works.
i agree, ichigo and yuji is freak athlete, so it makes sense when they kickass. but the mc never shown anything, then power fire and bum, neg them all.
even tanjiro learn for what?6 months.
but who care about power scalling anyway.
What I'm saying is that it won't matter. The Sorcerer will get handwaved as a mook and actual enemies will be much stronger. It's always like this, no matter how tough the first enemy gets depicted as in chapter 1 he always get retconned to be a nobody.
Little soldier boy~~
first fanart (not by a nip artist)
Stupid design
saw a couple of posts voting for otr
hakurifag...
Muscle women is a fucking trash fetish for the lowest of the lowest, it's worse than Shotashit which is sometimes passable.
Good oneshot
Viking warrior exam (despite him already being a super powerful swordmage) next chapter
No anon, we get fortress namek next 6 chapters, then viking warrior exam after that
Muscle women is a fucking patrician fetish for the highest of the highest, it's better than ShotaKINO which is passable.
can't get over the head
aura farming won against beethoven
I give this 20 chapters before axe
Should’ve kept the helmet
I DONT WANT TO KILL THE ICE DEMONS!
killing them is just sending them to Valhalla where they wanted to go in the first place
actually a better version than Kimetsu where some of the demons were mindcontrolled into becoming demons and would end up in hell regardless of whether they became demons willingly or not
the face kills it, kawaguchi should have just reused the sullen face he gave the red hood slut.
This dude just fucking can't draw children.
Shota gang shota gang
Endorsing his former assistant
That's nice.
I honestly would drop the series.
Same if that faggy armor ends up being his main, and not a fuckup or a "test"
She's dead already so honestly: what's the difference?
The author already has a big mommy fetish, he might also be a queer
It was okay. I preferred amorphous werewolves and steam punk, hope he actually has a script this time.
the first one is based, but he really needs to change THAT armor, which should happen considering the main MC artwork
make him look like a mini chad, at least
Inb4 he doubles down and he have him willingly cross dress
That actually works for Bugle Call MC
If Matsui taught him well we will see him crossdress
OTTER OF THE FLAME
Big tit paizuri wile being straddled by the flame loli will save this series
that log fire
Oh hey, I saw a video about that a while ago, great attention to detail. IIRC, you take a dry log, split it open just a bit, stuff it with some kindling, and you've got a good fire going with minimal wood cost, and a flat top to put a pot or pan to boot.
Well Thor cross-dressed that one time so it might happen.
This will be WSJ made in abyss
Big women are a gift
A lot of mean bullies, bad taste, and bad arguments ITT, for both sides.
She's just a character. Not everybody has to look like a level 1 mook.
Really doubt it.
How does chapter 2 play out in your retarded mind?
My beloved...
I thought it was a good start, tentatively following
child mc
axed
Damn, I really miss big gals from red hood...
Yeah lets axe HxH too
This isn't a real page, is it?
Of course, it not, anon. Don't be silly.
What does this have to do with the subject about the character design and fate?. A character having a unique or generic design does not confirm shit, surviving or dying. Your post is just retarded.
Because design is just a part of it and if you cracked triple digits I wouldn't have to explain this.
Author is a known Anon Babble god
Faggots show up and spam their unironic shota pedo shit because dumper can't keep his banter to himself
schizo meltdowns already
Red hood bros are we back?
WOLFIUM
Wolfonium
Yeah, dude is a bit fucked in the head, lol
Just like old time.
More like Ice head Gill
ginka speedran like 4 arcs worth of story in the first three chapters
Too big, too fat.
I wonder if you fags even have a mother.
Look, bros... Fap to what you will.
But do your best to support and shill this series, if you really want it to survive and grow, at least as an exister
But I'm a lonely poorfag...
NOT AN ARGUMENT. Share nip fanart, reactions, and reccomend it to more people around... You can do it....
Nope, it's getting AXED hahahahaha
it was set in the red hood universe all along
i can see kawaguchi pull that, red hood was clearly a big world building passion project
I recognize this shitposting style around...
It looks like a mix of one of those edgy Tafukubros and the Kiyoshitposter schizo.
Fuck, whatever. DO NOT FUCK THIS UP, CRAB.
I'd love it if like, chapter 50 Velou and Grimm show up.
Any fanart yet?
edgy Tafukubros
i'm not even posting
No one here can help it. Only nips can determine what lives and dies.
muscle woman jobbed instantly and was forgotten
the editor killed that shit
Kiyoshitposter schizo
I'm enjoying this, stop being a schizo and don't lump me with some imaginary boogeymen
yeah, they gift you a 2 years+ vacation from jump if you make them MC
"I know you're you're a nice guy"
"they're previous retreat"
Lack of revision, English mistakes...
Omni Tafuku, every post is a tafukupost...
crab sensei trying not to insert some muscle mommy
i've been found out
Kawaguchi is sexualizing children from chapter 1, japan gonna love this and it gonna live as long as the gorilas stay as side characters with minimum screentime.
If only your mother wished (you) stop act like a faggot.
Crossdressing will be this manga's version of the shapeshifting power of Otr from norse myths.
So how does he avoid fucking this up like red hood?
He has half the magazine as a cushion
The only reason anyone gave a FUCK about red hood is that they want new fantasy manga
red hood lose eevn when no market. now otr need to compete with ichi bugle call and centuria
now please eat fat black cocks and die otrcucks :DDDDDD
First Japanese comment I translated, oof
black cocks OUT OF NOWHERE
I mean yeah, but half the magazine is a bigger axe candidate and worse drawing
So if it sells 20k-30k it will live like Nue
Syd craft chapter today is hinting at an ending already btw.
no it is not
only in ur BBC addicted delusion
faggot
The thing about Japanese Twitter is that it's a normalfag website but they're just as deranged as we are
Holy Mother of BASED.
jap likes loli and big women
complete women enjoyer
Your response big women deniers?
Those otaku better support. Dude is getting older he's not going to want to do this shit eventually. Yeah one of the first bad comments I saw .At least majority seem good rn. Perfect time to be a semi decent battle shonen right now in jump. The current line up is kinda ass.
Oh that guy?
Yeah, he was fairly strong, but had a tendency to let his guard down.
If you had given him any moment longer he would have had his shit together to fuck you up.
Its not that hard, anon.
Or alternatively
powercreep happens
but the story retroactively decides that this guy from 5 arcs ago is actually super strong and can keep up with the current arc antagonist
One Piece writing or something
Theres the old
You burned too much of your life force on our first time and cant be that strong again
Trope or some variation as to why MC was so strong in chapter 1 but falls behind
I like spirits and elements hopefully it lives.
