I keep hearing about Wonderful Wonder World and Gold. Who's the author? I'd like to check it out.

I don't think they would have said "important announcement" just for some oav.
If it's not an anime,it could be an anime movie or a live action

2nd season to premiere in Spring is almost certain, and the manga did get a boost of over 50% in sales. It might not be as big as other titles yet for a non action based anime the boost was a significant one, even moreso than AC or Nisekoi.

Even Boku no Hero Academia was placed in the middle of the ToC on its 4th chapter. I think we should wait at least two more issues until we start analysing Buddy Strike's positions.

BTW, there will be a special chapter for Gunjou no Magmel in issue #2.
No, that is not the case according to the preview. Koroshiya Domino by Di Nian Miao (I assume she is not japanese what is really incredible for a manga artist in Japan who gets a chance in Jump), the author of Gunjou no Magumeru, is the one shot in question that will be featured in the upcoming Jump issue

I really like the new layout, I REALLY hope Shokugeki gets a second season.. But I have heard it didn't sell that well, but what else could the 'big announcement' be if not a second season? xD

I heard that all of these manhua in Jump Plus (Gunjou no Magumeru/ Chronos Ruler/ the story of a very handsome man etc...) were originally published in OK! comics magazine which is like the Chinese version of Viz ESJ

then they were translated to Japaneses & published in Jump Plus

I just read the first few chapters of Hinomaru Zumou and it was good. Which bring up a question:

"How do the readers judge a sport series, if every sport series start out the same ?" Beside fujoshi, what make a certain sport series popular . MC falls under 3 types of sport MC

1/ a hardworking person
2/ underdog with hidden talent/potential
3/ a genius

and a rival introduce early on, after that they enter a tournament against the top school and usually lose at that tournament. Some example:

1/ Hinomaru Zumou: the MC falls under the hardworking person and an underdog
2/ Prince of Tennis: Echizen Ryouma is a genius type.
3/ Eyeshield21 : Sena is an underdog with a lightning speed . Lose on his first tournament.
4/ Kuroko no Basuke : Kuroko is a genius underdog type.
5/ Haikyuu: Hinata is an underdog type with a hidden talent.
6/ Captain Tsubasa : a genius hardworking type .
7/ Kurogane : an underdog with a hidden talent . Lost on his first tournament .

fixed
Main reason might be that Hinomaru Zumou does not have Fujoshi fans who would push this title with Doujinshis. Jump ranking is still good, it just doesn't sell well. Too bad viz picked up the Fujoshi titles Kuroko and HQ instead of a really manly sport manga.
Even though the scan group doesn't prioritize Hinomaru and we only get erratic releases, I just have to read two pages and I m fully immersed in it although I m not interested in Sumo sport at all. The author has a great panel layout and knows how to lead the reader.
