I know someone said it earlier, Kimetsu really doesn't the best covers. Compared to OP, Promised Neverland, MHA and the other series running, the continuous covers of Tanjiro holding his word look very "weak". For comparison,

I liked the one with Muzan's reflection on his blade. Kimetsu has very good CP/LCP's so its all good.

Yeah, the current center page of muzan vs tanjiro is really nice. Also the one of douma, inosuke,kanao and shinobu is probably my favorite. I still wish there was more variety with the covers, some A.U would be cool.

Shoseki Daily Ranking - 2/5

Jump Volumes


#1 Kimetsu no Yaiba 19

#3 Act-age 10
#28 Yuragi-sou no Yuuna-san
#60 Mission: Yozakura Family 1
#96 Mitame Secureity 1
#108 Kamio Yui wa Kami wo Yui
Dang I was hoping for mitama to hold a little better there

The kimetsu cover is pretty meh (although I like the parallel with the first one), the color spread is great. Wani must be overworked as fuck though, she's been a fuckton of covers/color pages and never takes breaks

As we've established through the recent interview, Gotoge is apparently a Mashima level committed worker.

Cool color pages, a shame for ZIPMAN!! but this was inevitable and so glad we're getting even more Usazaki art with this new Cover and Color Page, I love how Act-Age is getting so well-treated lately in the magazine. Will love to see Chiyoko art with the second-anniversary celebration.

Also, I have seen the Yozakura Print discussion earlier, but how does that even make sense? If we did actually say Yozakura has one of the lowest prints ever in Jump compared to other newbies, doesn't that literally say Mitama is directly selling way less and hence a worse performance? I'm not saying they can't have a low print, but it doesn't really make sense to me that Yoza is supposedly selling less than Mitama but still getting higher positions in these rankings and at the same time people are saying Mitama is running out of copies in some stores, which is also the same situation with Yozakura according to some Twitter statements that can always be doubted.

My whole point here is that if we actually say that Yozakura seems that it's selling a lot of copies but its print is actually low as fuck, first of all, it wouldn't be on tops, and it wouldn't make sense that thinking that Mitama has a really good reception, it would be selling less. Is it really that hard to actually consider the, even remote as it can be, possibility that the volume is performing decently and will manage to sell a fair amount of copies?

I don't doubt it but so is Oda and that ended up hurting him in the long run. Being committed is good and everything but I hope she takes a long and well deserved break atleast once the manga ends.

A lot of people call Gotouge wani since wani = croc IIRC.

It's a lot like how everyone refers to Sorachi as gorilla.

Question, does Odoriba Yuu have anything yet, or is this his first ever work?

Looking at the volume 1 staff list, it is probably Irooki Shinobu, they started their first series "Kemonona Watashi to Yoimasen ka?" in Takeshobo's Monthly Kissca seinen magazine in January.
Kissca? That must be a super obscure magazine, since I'm not even seeing a discussion topic at first glance.

Although, this does bring up an interesting point. I guess being an assistant for WSJ must pay peanuts compared to starting your own serialization in even the most obscure magazines.

If it payed less, they likely would have stayed as an assistant, I'm guessing.

I don't know, I think for many mangaka, being proud of having your series serialized may be more appealing than being an assistant, even with less money? And If you have a successful series you'll eventualy may receive a considerable sum that you hardly could get by being an assistant.

According to chinese leakers, there is an announcement in this Jump issue that says Yuuna-san is ending in 2 chapters. For the moment is an unconfirmed rumor.

So basically much better than any of the axed series, but not quite as good as any of the ones that stuck. Not the worst position I guess.

Yeah, never heard of it before either. Cover and topics on their website are what is to be expected of a low selling seinen magazine though:

But hey, at least there is some promotion of Irooki's series between all that gravure.

You know, when Tsurun mentioned his friend getting a series in Weekly Sunday, he actually namedropped Sunday in his author comment. I wonder if Tsutsui not naming Kissca in his comment was a coincidence or if editorial wasn't in the mood to namedrop some raunchy seinen magazine 🙊
