Guys I need an information

How much Kimetsu no Yaiba was selling or rather it's first volume sold before it had any anime adaptation?

Volume 14 sold 145k in Jan . Vol 13 sold 146k in Nov.
Anime boost is 3x

Shokugeki no Soma ~Le Dessert~: Final Chapter

This is the special final chapter! The end! (Tsukuda)

Thanks to everyone who supported Soma until the end! (Saeki)


Also, something curious about the new series. Mitama Secureity's short story in Jump GIGA is about Tsurun's editor reading the script for the series, telling him it's interesting and to inmediately make 3 chapters in order to publish it. Kinda weird, but guess we'll see.

At this point, I will not be surprised if Shueisha axes all Yui, Beast, Futari and TSS and launches 5 newbies lol. Which is what they should do anyway.
Yui is back to square one sadly.

Odd to see TPN and Jujutsu lower than usual.

I learned this from the wsj Wikipedia page:

"1998's New Year's issue was the first time in 24 years that Weekly Shōnen Jump lost as the highest selling shōnen manga magazine (4.15 million copies sold), ceding to Weekly Shōnen Magazine (4.45 million)"

Does anyone know what series were running in wsj for this issue and wsm that caused this?

Assuming this means Issue #1 of 1998 (which has a January 1, 1998 release date), with TOC. Interesting to see Yu-Gi-Oh in bottom 3. One Piece dominating early on too, nice. Fun fact: starting from Issue 7 to Issue 11 they have ended the whole Bottom 5 except for YuGiOh, including Ei-Row despite having like 10 chapters by then! Talk about being ruthless.

Oh, I did a post about that last month here:

Mag Talk - Weekly Shonen Jump [2019] - Discussion and TOC Talk

Wanted to talk a little about a phenomenon that almost nobody mentions: we read a lot that Jump sold in 1994 +5 million copies. Then that after Dragon Ball and Slam Dunk ended, it lost tons of readers and WSM became the top magazine for first time since 1980. And then magically we see Jump...

Jump recovered back 1st place in 2002

It's 40, not 41

Already corrected.

Guys, remember what I said previously. Unless a ToC is 100% confirmed, don't post it.

Is that ToC 100% confirmed?

It's kind of surreal how Kochikame already had more than a thousand chapters even back then.

How many manga with more than 1000 chapters are there even? One Piece won't be getting there until end 2020.

Ippo, Conan and Dokaben are the only ones which come to mind.

In the Jump I believe that only Kochikame and soon One Piece have reached and exceeded the thousand chapters (Jojo does not count because the last series published in the Jump s iferma on the volume 80)

Hadn't Yonkouprod confirmed it?

Where? A leak on his discord isn't the same as him posting it on Twitter.

Edit: Nevermind, settled now.

Golgo 13 also seems to fit the bill. I'm surprised to see most of these are still running.

 

[redon]

Cooking Papa, Oishinbo, Minami no Teiou, Nijitte Monogatari and even Baki too. I think all of them haven't ended yet.

 

[Mankichi Togawa]

I wonder why is Jujutsu so low this week.

Betting on Hero Academia getting the Jump cover for issue 43 or 44 because S4 anime. If there is justice in this world, Jujutsu and/or Act-age should be getting issue 42.

Probably just editor placement.

Urgh, again Jump double morale of pushing Dr.Stone everytime and treating Jujutsu like an irrelevant manga.

JJK will get it's time in the Sun once the anime is airing, no doubt.
