The results for Reversi are in and not
even Ashirogi-sensei expected it. Will Reversi be serialized together with Zombie☆Gun in Weekly Shounen Jump? This chapter just tells it all.
Niizuma-sensei did set a new record of 692 votes for a one-shot last week
but Ashirogi-sensei overtook this record with 694 with Reversi. As someone who
has been reading Bakuman for around a year now, I seriously didn’t see this
coming. But I guess this is what makes Bakuman so exciting. The idea of things
you never expected actually happening. Well, probably for some people, they saw
this coming since Ashirogi’s the protagonist anyway.
Niizuma’s sulking…
Okay, so one thing I also didn’t expect to see is Niizuma-sensei being so
depressed about losing to Ashirogi by two votes. I guess he was so fired up
with Zombie☆Gun and made it the manga that will be the world’s
number 1. With his depression, he decided not to write Zombie☆Gun’s name for serialization.
With Niizuma's stubbornness, Yuujiro’s also gotten depressed ‘cause Niizuma
refuse to submit his serialization name. He’s taking Niizuma’s serialization
his team’s top priority that’s why he had a short argument with Hattori who
wants Ashirogi’s Reversi to get serialized. Well, all I can say is Hattori is
damn right about Yuuhiro taking Niizuma into priority that he initially refused
to take Ashirogi’s name.

Reversi’s
Serialization
With Ashirogi-sensei still have PCP in serialization with good results,
there’s no way the higher ups can just cut it down for Reversi to be
serialized. The idea of Ashirogi still can’t do two serialization in WSJ
(Weekly Shounen Jump) is a pretty good consideration. That’s why the new
editor-in-chief decided to talk to the editor-in-chief of Hissho Jump. The
final outcome? Reversi is finally serialized but not in WSJ but in Hissho Jump.
The question in mind in here is that, if PCP gets cancelled, will Reversi be
moved to WSJ or will they write an even better manga for WSJ? Also, will
Reversi ever get a chance for an anime even if it’s in HJ? If so, when will
that be?
Niizuma’s final
decision
With Ashirogi-sensei being serialized in Hissho Jump, Niizuma’s finally
done sulking and decided to write his name for Zombie☆Gun. He’s going for the next serialization meeting. What I’ve been
thinking about this is that did Niizuma decided to write the name because he
won’t be directly competing with Reversi? – I wonder…
