Here’s to hoping it will be better than the last theater arc, which was fuckin amazing.

And best boy? And Akira?

Yes you did if that was your last chapter.

Soon, Akirabro.

If the first theater/stage arc included Akira, then I doubt this one won't. This arc/project looks to be even bigger.

Holy shit where did you find this

Don't say it's not realistic, it's California.

Akira is the only "normal" actor person she has a relationship with.
Everyone else is an autistic psycho.

Jesus fucking Christ. I don't know what I expected with this chapter, but I certainly didn't expect two-thirds of it to be series of holy shit moments.

The other death island newbies seemed alright

They also live all over japan.

>Scuffy's skills overshadowing Yonagi

Akira's insane too, he just passes much better than the other autists.

The press release for the issue had clean versions of all the drawings.

>highfalutin
man fuck viz
Never seen that word before; it looks so awkward to pronounce - which is probably why, so then why use the word "pretentious" instead?

That's the original Japanese. They supposedly fixed the grammar in the Viz version.

But broken grammar is so common on youtube. It's one of the few things that's accurate.

>They supposedly fixed the grammar in the Viz version.
Jesus Christ has noone at Viz ever READ a YouTube comment?

>press release
you mean the printed magazine that anyone can buy or a media exclusive copy (like how its done with video games and games "journalism")?

What a good chapter. You can see Arisa's heart breaking on each panel when Chiyoko says about her plans.
Also, somehow this chapter gives me feels that Chiyoko will break and become insane sooner or later

>I certainly didn't expect two-thirds of it to be series of holy shit moments.
Neither did I man; I thought it was going to be continuing with the trend of a different form of media/role like we've been getting so far. I was expecting voice acting for an anime, but I guess that can be saved for when Act-Age actually gets one.

It's actually from Jump's official LINE account.

>Spend every appearance until this chapter trying to catch and polish Yonagi
>Make a deal with Araya to let him beat Chiyoko
>Make a deal with Chiyoko to let her beat Yonagi
Considering that he's just a mundane producer who doesn't even seem to be doing any shady work, Amachi is actually fucking scary. It's a testament to the writer's ability to be able to present him like this. His plans are so fucking obvious and so fucking devious.

FLAT

>Chiyoko will break and become insane sooner or later
She already has

>That dot on his forehead

Voice acting for an anime is not that interesting from an acting perspective.

I know it's an indian thing, but his smiles, generally creepy aura and dot just remind me of Anthy.

He's gonna make them all call him P-kun

I thought a double casting was one person playing two roles

Nope
>In theatrical terms, double-casting is when two actors are both cast in the same role, and take turns playing the role during alternating performances.

don't need big boobs when you've got a fucking nice hair style and a fucking nice outfit in fact - it would actually be a distraction

true, but I'm just thinking that they could do a chapter or two on it for when the anime gets announced (like Kaguya) or when it actually begins/about to begin airing

Can't wait for all the fanart.

Rude.

She was malnourished for years, it makes sense she wouldnt grow in the right places.

Viz is being highfalutin

Why must you ruin the thread with Act-Age art that is not really good/not by Usazaki Shiro?
not to say that hers isn't really good (it is) - she fucks up sometimes, but just look at this; look at it

Not him, but posting fanart is a normal thing to do.

Akira is really the least popular main cast member huh. I wonder whether they're going shilling him so hard.

Not that user, but I'm just glad that more and more artists start to draw Act-Age

Popularity poll when?

Shit man; I never knew Yakuza 0 had such good music - makes me wish for a futuristic Soulsborne/Sekiro-like game from FromSoft with music like this

Well, that's just normal. Fanart is fanart after all and every artist has a different style.

Some of them have some nice one, I like pic related's style.

Attached: D4_1l27VUAADeRk.jpg (760x966, 114K)

Protip, if he's randomly included in arcs, it's because people like him.
Hell, he even got development in the railway arc despite being Araya's arc.

CHIYOKO IS KILL

>Akira is really the least popular main cast member huh.
He reminds me Shimpachi from Gintama. Like, not bad character with development and mommy issues but still irrelevant (I wonder if this become a running gag in this manga as well)

If only they were all really good; guess you have to start from somewhere though. I also guess more really good artists will draw Act Age if there's just a lot of people (good or bad) drawing Act-Age

CHIYOKO IS KILLER

>complaining about your series having fanart
What's your problem, dude? It's not even tumblrshit-like or something.

Enter CHADkira

Attached: akira.png (800x780, 620K)

He's too boring right now. Araya has the bad boy appeal and Chiyome has the /u/ and yandere one. He will probably get some development to make him better though.

>Chiyoko x Yonagi x Ariya threesome

yes....YES !!

Might be the fear of shitposting in well know series

The masked hero ultramask

Yeah that guy's pretty good - better than all the other fanart posted so far

I don't mind Act-Age having fanart; I just don't like it being posted where I can see it, but made me realize shit fanart posting, but yours is a valid concern as well

actually this one is the best in the thread so far
would be the best if the artist made Yonagi look closer to the way Shiro draws her like they already did with Araya (flat face, bags around eyes)

Reminder that he is not a virgin anymore

Attached: newchap.png (800x800, 308K)

Calm down guys, I think you guys are overblowing this whole thing about fanart. Yes I would like to have decent fanart posted here in the threads but we take what we can get. If we have a slow start then that's fine, we can't expect the fanart to be like Jujutsu or Chainsawman.

>not even tumblrshit-like
I forgot to say that that is true

>3deep5u

Can I get source on this? I can't make out the artist name.

wait are people only posting really good fanart in Jujutsu or Chainsawman threads? Already?(Chainsawman)

>give it to me straight doc

the tag looks to be rindou105

What the fuck were they thinking?

I can't say for Jujutsu because it's mostly dead from what I can see but yeah, Chainsawman threads sometimes have fanart dump and they do look pretty good though I'm betting it's more appealing to older fans that stopped reading Jump for a while and it gained interest from them.

>Viz
>Thinking
Nice joke

Jujutsu threads are ded but there's some good fanart in Twitter and pixiv. Also Chainsaw Man even had an official fan art contest recently.

Will yonagi ever stop being a drok and turn into a cold bitch like Chiyoko ?

I didn't know the Glass Mask translations were still going on.

Also silly arts are the best ones.

Nice.

>newarc.jpg

I doubt it. Yonagi looks to have a more diverse acting portfolio than Chiyoko even though the latter has been in the business far longer than the former because of the individuals that found them - Kuroyama for the former and Arisa for the latter. If Yonagi ever reaches her peak, but someone is one the come up looking to surpass her, she can just flex into a new gig of the type that she hasn't done before/recently because of Kuroyama's unique connections/standing. Chiyoko can't do the same because of Arisa's controlling/standing - which is why she had to go through Amachi to be in what looks to be her first stage play.

>guys
It's not guys; it's one person.

and
are all (me), and yes I was overblowing.
I repeat

Attached: 1549219783427.jpg (2000x1080, 270K)

actually this one's the best no wait this one's the bestthe point of the art is not how good it is (it is good enough), but the context that it is portraying (which it does really well, and the art is good enough to allow it to do so - even though I feel Chiyoko's hair could be more accurate)

This manga is Aver-age

Damn Amachi is gonna finess both Araya and Chiyoko

TRUTH

So what kind of play are you hoping for? I need one where Chiyoko holds a knife.

Oh snap, Chiyoko. What are you doing

>Chiyoko and Araya are dressed in black while Yonagi is in white
She corrupted them

Yeah besides the fact that one was already insane and the other a manwhore before meeting her.

Becase she is pure

I hope that Kuroyama doesn't let this shit go through and just has Yonagi continue taking part in new projects with people she hasn't worked with before (besides Kuroyama).

I mean why couldn't they both have just gone to Kuroyama instead?

>Hey Kuroyama; I want to protect the theater
>Hey Kuroyama; I want to outshine Yonagi and Arisa
>Kuroyama makes a play with Araya and Chiyoko as the leads and Yonagi in a supporting role
>everyone wins, no finessing/backstabbing involved
But nooo, muh deals with the devil and all that.
I fear that this manga will go down the same shitty path that Shokugeki no Soma has since after the festival arc and will have the same shitty and tragic results to show for it.

didn't tag inI wonder how Araya would react to being in the same project as Chiyoko and how Chiyoko would to her face on the billboard being replaced by Araya's.
No wonder Amachi has all that cash...

Kuroyama takes Jobs only to be afloat his main goal is to produce his vision wich only Yonagi can acomplish

Is it possible to have too many autists on stage at once?

The more the merrier.

>CHADkira

Attached: v13.jpg (1080x1580, 201K)

but Amachi, Araya, and Chiyoko are looking to interfere with that goal by involving Yonagi.
>he could've headed this project to satisfy Araya and Chiyoko, as well as protect Yonagi from Amachi and have her get more experience
>he could take the money to keep himself afloat and fund future projects - including ones to continue to protect Araya's theater and have Chiyoko as the star.
>he could continuously shift Yonagi around roles other than the leads and produce smaller side projects with her to continue to get experience.
>come out with his magnum opus with Yonagi and retire or continue making projects
That last part would be an act of backstabbing towards Chiyoko and maybe Araya, but it would be better for him (and us, if this is going down the same path as Shokugeki no Soma after the festival arc) than what we're getting now.

CHADyoko (9) sitting on VIRGINra (10)

>Here's Araya with his new haircut.
I'm getting Campanella vibes. He must be going through Iwao and Yonagi withdrawal.

I just hope the motherfucker doed not dare to put yonagi and ariya in a romantic or etotic scene.

Yonagi is still too young for that, and she is for akira.

>Yonagi saved her from injury, sickness and potential death
>Arisa handed her a career
>she didn't want to outshine Arisa until Yonagi showed up and come up

being an ungrateful bitch

I'm afraid>but that's exactly why it also creates incredible buzz

>he already had his face at Yonagi's crotch at the end of The Night on the Galactic Railroad
but yeah Araya is too old for that;he's even older than Hiiragi Yuki - surprising to say

ArayaxYonagi > ChiyokoxYonagi > AkiraxYonagi desu senpai

I also ship yonagi with her midget classmate.

That's also pretty cute. Is that a reverse IMAGINE?

What's this manga about?
I see it's a shonen, but it doesn't feel like it from the synopsys.
Is the target people interested in the industry?

I used to ship Araya with Yonagi, but after this chapter, I'm going to have to ship her with Ryoma, whom Yonagi has promised not to get involved with
>not an actor
>got involved and got suspended just so his club could get their project out there when he had no prior involvement
>gets Yonagi to question her own life
Ryoma is the best

But Yonagi's already the daughter-wife of Kuroyama

>cucks her friend.

I'd say that A target is people who wouldn't otherwise read WSJ if not for this due to how different it is from the rest of the magazine
>female LEAD protaganist
>NO lead male protaganist of similar age

>not a comedy
>not a battle shonen

So thats why she bullied akira uh

Viz also doesn't translate text in color pages - for example, the previous chapter

Who did it better? (the foot bone lines)

>I felt jealous
Then what's stopping you from going to the guy you talked to last chapter instead of this guy?

Chiyoko from arc 1 and Araya from arc 2? Mangaka cashing in on past setup.

Feels exciting and stale at the same time.

>Chiyoko versus Yonagi
>Araya might be up against Akira
This looks fun. Feel bad for the handsome boy though.

I kinda wanted Araya to come back (not Chiyoko since she's a murderer but not like this.

I repeat

FRAUDYOKO IS FINISHED

ARAYA AND CHIYOKO PLEASE OLD PRODUCERS FOR ROLES OHOHOHPJ

So what is the producer's endgame?

See the world burn. Also money.

Yonagi

Bait Araya with the promise to have him beat Chiyoko, bait Chiyoko with the promise to have her beat Yonagi.
Wrestle Yonagi out of Kuroyama's hands by tempting her with the chance to challenge Araya and Chiyoko.
Have Yonagi devour Araya and Chiyoko's talents with no regards to her personal health.
Get multimillion dollar talent and amputate STARS while he's at it.

Will Yonagi match Chiyoko?

Yonagi need an actual goal.

No.
Chiyoko has a secret weapon, while yonagi has none.

What if it's indeed a romance play but Araya and Chiyoko are the main characters

Yonagi and CHADkira will outshine them as a couple though. That's what I can see about it if they're doing the double double-acting.

How does yonagi manage to attract so many loons

By being the biggest one of all.

Birds of a feather flocks together

>not one 'I want to fuck the actress'
I'm disappointed

Yonagi is a pro!
Pros can't be crazy!

Total brainlet here, what is his endgame?
Using chiyoko and Araya as tool to get to Yonagi?

oh no! the old men are already on Yonagi's trail!

Attached: 1542154446023.png (832x582, 607K)

I'd say his endgame is not just having Yonagi, but Chiyoko and Araya as well, have a full triumvirate of autists in his collection.
