Issue 52 will debut Amalgam of Distortion's first ranking and it will also rank Clover's chapter with the whole light novel fiasco, but most importantly One Piece will be ranked. I don't think Japan will be fond of that chapter or the current arc so this should signal the Clover's fall for now.

I honestly dont think Clover's placing follows its rankings. Its just being placed that high as an editorial push. I gues we'll see next week but I assume it will be as high as always.

Speaking of bleach, Kubo was back on twitter and he was sending out these texts and drawings that basically translated into something pretty sad about how he wanted to give up due to his health issues and that he wasn't doing his duty properly as a mangaka but one letter from a fan who passed away motivated him to finish it off.
Il give the link below for the translation in case anyone is interested.

Why? the whole arc is epic, everyone fighting and helping Dorksta recover. One hates life if they hate BLack Clovers current arc.

Shimabu is from a different generation from the newbies who have flooded the magazine nowadays, so he is neither close nor important for most people to congratulate.

:3

What? That doesn't even make sense lol. He was pretty important so you'd think they would have a farewell.

Most of these mangaka's were serialized in Jump during (2011-2013), which was Toriko's prime. How could they not know about the series or better yet realize how big it once was?

Just read the raws for Demon's plan and almost didn't understand a thing, although I did get a vibe of Saint Seiya: The lost canvas' beginning so I'm curious for the translation and where it goes from here.

The fact that Bleach sells better than the entire magazine (except OP and Hq) shocks the hell out of me....

 

[xAsum0x]

Half the magazine is really niche stuff that can't break 100k

How is that surprising? SnS & Academia are pretty close to it.

I wonder what the next one will look like. 2011 was ugly

Thanks dude!

Sales of something at volume 70 equal to, near, or beating something at volume 20 (SnS) / 10 (HeroAca) is surprising.

That makes me curious, what are the top selling Jump+ series right now?

I know Fire Punch and Harem Apocalypse or whatever do fairly well (better than some of the recent main magazine stuff) but I don't know about the rest.

KissxDeath and ElDive also sell decent

Although Bleach has fallen far from its peak popularity, it's still a series established on 15 years of serialization. It only makes sense that it is one of the top sellers. Also the fact that Hero Academia isn't as big as Jump wanted it to be contributes to this.

Is there a site that has the Japanese raws for The Promised Neverland? I hate having to wait until Sun-Mon to see what happens. >_>

As far as I know, Worlds End Harem became the best selling Jump + series currently with its first volume. All the other 'good' sellers in the magazine like Eldlive, Fire Punch, Karada Sagashi ect are in the same sales bracket as Jump's low sellers like HZ and Straighten Up, not even selling 30k in their first appearance on the board. Worlds End Harem sold just over 30k in its first week, and appeared the next week selling like 25k and getting a reprint. I cant remember seeing another Jump+ series ever appearing for a second week, i imagine it only happens rarely.

It makes me wonder if Eldlive is one of the lowest selling manga series to ever get an anime?
