----------------------------------------
We have a new female character, Aoki-san! :D


She doesn't make a good first impression during the conversation with Takagi and Akihito though. For some reason, I sense a some kind of double personality with that character.

Anyway, it's now everyone (I mean 5 mangaka) vs. KOOGY. Time for some fight!! XD

Double personality!? She seems pretty straight forward to me, the fact that she said that Ashirogi Muto's "This world is nothing but Money and Knowledge" was boring right in their face.


Hyde's reaction to voicing his part in this episode. "It was hard to make my own voice." Lol.

Looks like the questionnaires is gonna be rigged because of the fans voting for Koogy. He had to announce to become a manga-ka at the bad time, right before the Golden Cup!

Koogy and his Song really made things seem really dark, and he adds a really good rival for all the artists

Oh, I had forgotten about this Koogy guy, so I'll be surprised with whatever happens from now on. At least he doesn't give that "villain" vibe (like the current main rival in the manga), it's more like someone who desperately wants to succeed in life without effort. Still quite pathetic, really, and even more considering that he seems to have some talent. Go Team Fukuda, smash him!

Oh noes, new drama with Koogy playing cheap tricks. At least now it's obvious why Hattori disliked that manga being in competition so much.

I was already thinking during Koogy's performance "why is time being wasted on this", then he had to go and pull that cheap move. Things should be interesting next episode.

I found Yuriko to be fairly amusing.

The episode was great once again, but both Aoki-san and Koogy SUCK!The chick has an awful personality and the singer has an ugly face.

Can't wait for the next episode!I really wanna see how Team Fukuda's protest is gonna work out ;)

Well Aoki is "too Shoujo" that even Margaret...I mean Magnolia "let her go", while Koogy is also "too Shoujo" but pretending to be "unique and surreal" to try to appeal to Shounen Jump...I mean Jack readers.

The koogy face like wtf. So ugly, how did he get so popular? And his song sucks, i thought he will be the rocker type, even expected some screaming. Disappointed. If you take off that sunglass he will look just like a nerd.

I want to punch Koogy in the face so hard. And maybe a kick in the balls wouldn't be so bad either.

I'd rather watch an entire episode about Aoki and that suck up Nakai than see that douchebag for another five minutes. >:(

I guess just because he's a rock star he can manipulate his fans to buy his creations and it seem though he can draw he somehow lacks the imagination to make a good story so he's only banking on his popularity. It's like a movie star who runs for office using his popularity without any political platform.

The new female mangaka, Aoki, is kind of a disappointment. I'm not a fan of her blunt personality. It seems like she's a stereotypical girl choosing Koogy's work as her favorite because of its so-called "unique and artistic" feel. The little snippet they gave of his manga reminded me of Okami, though I've never played the game. I also didn't like the way she dissed Takagi's and Fukuda's concepts. Why does she have to suck? :(

I hope her character will grow on me as time goes by. Oh, and I also don't like how poor Nakai-san is acting like such a tool, agreeing with whatever she says.

Not sure what to think of Koogy. He's pretty cheap using his fame to gather supporters. You'd think someone like him would want to get serialized off talent rather than fame. This move he's played just makes him seem really insecure about his own talent...
However, I do like his seiyuu.

Can't wait for the next episode! Bakuman has been so awesome lately. Go, Team Fukuda!

The episode wasn't that exciting but it was a nice set up for the editing department complaining. Aoki didn't bug me that much but I didn't like how she just bashed Takagi and Mashiro's manga right in front of them. Koogy seems like a real dick and I hope he doesn't do good. Although that is very doubtful.

Kitaaaa!! Aoki Ko-sensei!!
Forgot that she was like this in the beginning. I still like her though.
I'm a bit biased since she's voiced by Kawasumi Ayako :P

And oh yeah, this was the part where they mentioned Nurarihyon no Mago and Beelzebub and when I picked those manga up.
These are fine examples of oneshots who became serialized in Jump.
And both already got an anime. Time sure flies.

Koogy's music was horrible. He looks like Head from Star Driver though.
If you think Koogy was horrible then wait and see about a certain person.
He already mentioned his fate in this episode so yeah.

Great episode.
Preview looks really good.

It is just as you said, she has a blunt personality but all she said was that she dislike them not because she thought both of manga are bad and she also gave a reason.

I am really disappoint by Ayako Kawasumi voicing her way too soft and pretend to be strong.

I like Aoki's blunt personality a lot! SOLID episode.

Not a dull moment. We revisit old characters and meet a few new ones; all with their own personalities and eccentricities.

Koogy plays diiiirty. ;)

Actually a slightly less enjoyable episode than usual, considering there was some great suspenseful result or deadline coming up. I guess thats why this show was so addicting.

However, i have to admit after that horrible concert Koogie woke me up by announcing that XD

I thought when they mention Koogy multiple times he had some significance, but when he started talking at the concert I figured it out. Also I still think Fukuda looks hot!

Yay for Koogy deut... and Aoki's too! Aoki's first appearance isn't the greatest and gives off the worst kind of vibe off her but in the end it's just her and well she's really a good person and mangaka too! She's awesome being straightforward with Ashirogi telling them that she didn't like their stuff but liked Koogy's....

BTW, Koogy's stuff is quite different and fun to read but in the end like someone else already said above me, it's just not something for jump but something for a BL magazine.... has weird concepts and stuff that doesn't really fit in a Jump magazine... And is too artistic to certainly be a shounen manga ^^ Too bad he made a foul move and now the Golden Future Cup will be tainted with lots of biased votes >>

Oh Fukuda being the lead and head of the young mangaka joint is kewl... He really has the attitude and abilities to be so!... GO Fukuda-gomi! Kick the Editorial Department butt and turn the tide in your favour!

Oh... but besides that... I'm really worried for Mashiro... maybe no one really noticed it since many of you hate his guts, but he doesn't look really well... I hope he can overcome that trouble.... And YAY for Niizuma being successful and managing to sell 2million copies of his three volumes and maybe getting a Anime series!
