I think Spy getting so high has more to do with it not having scans and until recently not being on Viz. If someone wanted to read it they pretty much had to read it on Manga+ (or read rips but those came out later so what's the point). MHA and Demon Slayer have scans and are on Viz which would take away from potential Manga+ views
I’m sure no one actually believes the ranking is reflective of how popular a series actually is.
The only purpose of me posting that is to inform that views won't be reflecting any worth numbers to measure for that series anymore. Same thing with One Piece when it got a shitton amount of views out of nowhere. This is not to create discussion whether we think X series should be more popular or not that the other one, but to make people know what's happening in the website. There's still a lot of series in the platform that reflect actual popularity and readership and can be used to measure its overall reception. Don't know why does it seem so offensive for you to call that out.
This is what I mean. At least before we could get some measure of how popular some series were, since MangaPlus is the only way to read certain series. Now, with the confirmation that Boruto fans are just inflating the numbers to get to #2, it’s worthless now because that can happen with any series.
It’d probably be between those two series for me as well. Mostly because those are the big actiony shounen series I barely know much about. I remember catching a few episodes of the Saint Seiya anime on TV ages ago, but don’t remember what happened. It’d be great if both series were added to the Shonen Jump vault! Would love to read them.
Does Viz even have the license to the latter anymore?
not on their website. According to Wikipedia they lost it in 97 and Gutsoon Entertainment had it from 2003-2004 and no one has licensed it since.
I saw someone mention this before, and I guess it's the only way to get everything in English at this point?
Had to go gag/comedy since I'm just not seeing Miitama as being a big hit. I'm still dreaming of the next Samon-kun or Saiki, and my heart just won't let me give up on it. I almost went with romance since We Never Learn definitely seems to be approaching its ending and Yuuna could randomly end one of these days, but I think the need for a great new comedy is more pressing for me at this moment in time.

Also, definitely Mystery/Suspense - I would love something like Death Note.
this kickstarter version is the book + all 27 volumes for 230$ + shipping, you don't get the card reader (version 1), it has both Japanese and English.
I would imagine there'll be 3 new series to replace the 3 from the newest serialization round, 4 if they decide to end Yui Kamio at the same time, which I'm still 50/50 on whether they'll do it. I thought Yui Kamio could've nicely concluded everything in 1 volume's worth of new content, but the plot took a slight detour from from I was expecting (but in a very good way), so maybe it has 2 volumes max left. As for when it'll start, I would imagine in the next few weeks. The only reason I could see it not starting sooner would be if they intentionally want the new round to start in Issue 1
I'm thinking two (three if the Dr. Stone spinoff really is a fully fledged new series instead of a miniseries or something) and that it'll start at some point in November (or...next week, if Dr. Stone counts). Going from Issue #41 to the end of the year with no new batches hasn't happened once in the history of Weekly Shonen Jump so far. So if we don't get a new batch until December, which will be Issue #1 of 2020, that'll be unprecedented for the magazine.
