Hey I'm only reading the collected volumes in english and have caught up (vol. 14), but I'd like to read the single stories in Jump, so I subscribed today. What issue of Jump should I try to look for to continue where the last collected volume ended off?

Issue 15 of 2017 is where you're gonna want to start.

E: Specifically, the first chapter after volume 14 is 129, which is in the March 13, 2017 issue. Also keep in mind that you'll probably have to separately buy past issues, I'm not quite sure how that works.

Ok thanks! I just found out vol 15 comes out early next month so I’ll find stuff from there, but now i have a jumping off point at least

Good news: you can buy past issues here: https://www.viz.com/shonenjump/section/38828/more

Bad news: unless I missed something, you can only buy up to 12 issues ago. So if you didn't buy them when they were available, you're sol.

I just wanted to say thank you to Shonen Jump for changing their subscription service so you can read all past chapters because I've finally caught up and daaaaaaaamn.

Edit: I look forward to Bakugo and Mirko's eventual meeting.

Somehow I like Dabi's the best? It just needs a little more texture on the paint for his hosed up skin.

Yeah mass production figures can be really good but are rarely perfect, especially at that scale (I'm assuming that these are going to be around 1/12 scale like the SH Figuarts pieces more or less). The only way you get amazingly good is if they are around 1/6 like Hot Toys figures. Nonetheless I expect to eventually seen repainted ones by fans.

edit: Bandai has been making more and more inroads on realism to scale on some of their higher end stuff. I remember late last year or earlier this one them showing a new process where they make figures that have a red partial internal structure that creates realistic coloring when the slightly translucent skin overlay is put on top of it.

I mean, it would be loving amazing if they went the opposite direction and made a whole line of Fist of The North Star or Berserk figures using that technique but I'm not going to hold my breath waiting for them.

OTOH they might do some Dragon Ball figures, but again the first ones will probably be Bullma.

So I guess 3 years has passed in the Vigilantes world since the series started I suppose (it was referenced as that amount of time passing since the characters started their work in that neighborhood) but when is it in the BNHA timeline? I'm kind of guessing that Vigilantes starts 4-5 years before BNHA chapter 1?

edit: it's a huge part of most shonen stories. and I can get it since forgiveness and redemption is a big part of Buddhist philosophy, but at the same time mental illness is incredibly stigmatized in Japan and a lot of times is seen as the person who has M.I.'s own fault. It makes me pretty loving angry.

You can see a lot of the old polls here, they’re sorta interesting to look at. When it comes to the big three characters both sides of the pond are pretty consistent about it, with Kirishima, Eraser and Hawks also being universally popular.

We mostly traded Endeavor for All Might and Tintin :v:

Just out of curiosity, have there been any Vigilantes popularity polls?

It just dawned upon me that Miriko and the others could potentially get back to 100% after all this if Eri can control her power enough to take them back a few days. She's potentially the most important healer in the entire series.

Cool, she can heal maybe 1 or 2 people ever 6 months. What about the other hundred or so crippled heroes?

So far from what we know the only real healer can MAYBE heal a broken arm or so, or kept All Might alive to the point where he won't be dying but all his powers are slowly leaving him because he doesn't have the strength to do anything anymore. Miriko lost a leg, but in 6 months will be able to get back to 100%. That isn't insignificant, regardless of the fact that at this point Eri can only do something like this a couple of times per year. Eri is also a child and still growing. Her powers most likely will also continue to grow.
