Shonen Jump ToC Rankings

That's not an actual page, though you could suggesti it if you want.

I think you're looking for Healthcare Motivation.

Yeah, HZ has been doing a bit better lately. It's no longer in the bottom club at least.

Our bottom two don't seem to be doing that great in sales, so that's probably it…

The KNY anime is confirmed to be 26 episodes by the way.

Huh. Started reading Kimetsu no Yaiba but I felt like it was ok. Might give it another shot just to see what the fuss it is all about.

... And that's called jazz!

When do new manga start getting ranked? Because I really want to know how The Last Saiyuki is doing with readers.

Kn Y is definitely slow from the start,the series only start gaining popular during the second year of it publication so i can understand your feeling. i tried to read it once than drop. When the anime announced, i jump back and find the series quite enjoyable to read.

E.T technically is a Isekai movie

The TOC usually starts to reflect their ranking around chapter 8 (once the series has a full volume behind). If it's in the bottom 2 or 3 of the TOC by then (as was the case for Neø;lation and Higuma), it's not a good sign.

Just a weird wish from me which probably won't happen but we'll see:

I'm actually hoping that MAPPA would animate Jujutsu Kaisen and Kyoto Animation animating act-age. But that would be stupid of me. We'll see in later future if these mangas manage to survive and yeah, maybe the studio would be a lot different but we'll see.

"Making screw-ups and mistakes was I ever really good at. Because everything I touch went to hell."

I doubt Kyoani will animate a Jump series… That would be cool though. Or maybe TROYCA, who did Bloom Into You.

TROYCA would be a nice choice. Heck I think P. A. Works can also animate Act-Age pretty nicely although I'm not sure if that would be their first work based on an adaptation since I mostly saw PAW's works are mostly original anime. (I need more research on that)

And speaking of which... Sure, I'm fine with other animation studios animating JJK such as Bones or A-1 Pictures (Although I still find MAPPA animating it would be interesting as hell). Although seeing Pierrot animated it makes me kind of... Iffy considered anime fans reactions with Pierrot and all.

"Making screw-ups and mistakes was I ever really good at. Because everything I touch went to hell."

Kyo-ani's output does seem closer to Kirara than JUMP

Issue 20:

Front color: Yakusoku no Neverland
Center color: Act-Age, Yuragi-sou no Yuuna-san, Hinomaru Zumou
Not ranked: Saigo no Saiyuuki (chapitre 7), Kamio Yui wa Kami wo Yui (chapter 6), Shishunki Renaissance! David-kun, Jimoto ga Japan

1. Kimetsu no Yaiba
2. Dr. Stone
3. One Piece (!)
4. Boku no Hero Academia
5. Haikyuu!!
6. Bokutachi wa Benkyou ga Dekinai
7. Black Clover
8. Jujutsu Kaisen
9. Chainsawman
10. Shokugeki no Souma
11. Gokutei Higuma
12. Neø:lation

KNY n°1 for the third time in a row (not counting its magazine cover three weeks ago). That's pretty impressive. And One Piece is not in the top 2 for the first time in… years?

Cover for JJK next issue, with Act-Age getting a second color page in a row.

The higher ups most likely want to promote Kn Y now that the anime is starting.

Most likely, but considering volume 15 had the series' best start yet (it shot past Food Wars in sales) it's probably just doing that well.

By the way, there was also the announcement of a common website between Shonen Jump and Shonen Magazine where the first chapters of both magazines' big hitters (including non-weekly) will be available for free, but only until June. It's a… weird initiative to say the least.

So, how much longer do you expect Higuma and Neø:lation to last?

Oh God! Natural light!

It depends on how well Saiyuuki and Kamio Yui will perform… At worst a couple weeks, at best about a month.

I see. And how do you think those performances would affect things?

Oh God! Natural light!

Do you mean the current Food Wars volume or the best selling Food Wars volume? Becuase Food Wars' current sales are only a fraction of what they used to be. Also, the boost in sales could itself likely be attributed to the anime starting, depending on the timing.

I mean it outsells the latest Food Wars volume, which, yes, is doing pretty terribly by the series' standards.

As for the timing, the latest oricon top spans from April 1 to April 7, so the anime's premiere probably had little impact on the numbers − although all the advertisement with the theatrical release and all might have played a role.

Dunno, if one of the two newbies are doing really terribly maybe that might save Neø or Higuma for a little longer, but I doubt it.

I'm more worried about what will happen to Chainsawman once Neo and Higuma get axed.

As long as CSM sells it'll be fine I think.

Meanwhile, between Kamio and Saiyuuki I'm starting to get an idea of which one is gonna survive. Kamio has chosen an episodic and rather repetitive formula for its early chapters while Saiyuuki wastes no time to move its plot forward (but without rushing either).

The former gives me some Hungry Marie vibes, in that the premise doesn't quite seem solid enough to hold for very long. Hopefully I'm wrong.

Just gonna leave this here

"Making screw-ups and mistakes was I ever really good at. Because everything I touch went to hell."

Same with these links:

• First link
• Second link

If you ask me? Horikoshi is giving a shot-out to one of Jump mangakas Gege Akutami which is nice

"Making screw-ups and mistakes was I ever really good at. Because everything I touch went to hell."

Finally caught up to KNY and now I understand why it's so high these past few weeks. Gotouge-san is pulling out all the stops now and seems to be aiming at an early end for the series.

... And that's called jazz!

Seems like a new trend in the Jump actually… Both TPN and KNY seem to be aiming for a 20-something volume series, and even MHA will probably not be as long as Naruto and the likes. Same for Black Clover, I don't see it going past volume 40.

Pretty cool of Horikoshi.
