My view is that a series is probably doing acceptably if it's placed above Samurai 8. So Agravity Boys and Act-age seem low but it's mostly due to the lack of bottom padding, but Zipman and Yuuna are doing pretty badly since they're under S8.

We used to have that with Bleach, if a series ranked below Bleach in its last few years they were guaranteed dead, but if they ranked above it they had a chance.
Yuuna stays consistently in the bottom because it's an ecchi series, and is well established after four years. It isn't in any danger, and as myself and others have said, ToC placements for eatablished series mean little to nothing.

It's about time that Blind Sensei got his cover.


Wasn't it at a million last volume?
It crossed the 1 million figure with the release of volume 6 back in June last year.

I just mean it's in a spot that wouldn't be safe. It's probably ending pretty soon anyway so it doesn't matter, but it's in the kind of position that isn't great long term even for an established one (especially one with lower-end sales like Yuuna).

Now this is this is the kind of quality stuff I like to see. Happy to see Jump pushing this one and hopefully it grows even bigger this year.

Agravity continues to be bottom 5 in the TOC, but it's also above an established series this week, so not amazing but not terrible I guess. Interested in seeing where Yozakura and Mitama will go next week when they don't have CPs.

Jump sees potential.

Wow. Has this happened before?
Pretty sure it has.

There are series that have received multiple covers in a row as well.
Yeah. I think the harshness of Kimetsu is what Nakano feels makes it stand out. Even in its lighthearted moments, there's always the idea that anyone can die from even a minor mistake. "Luffy follows his gut instinct" the series is not.
Among all the comparisons you could have used, you went with One Piece.

Really following in your footsteps of S8 comments and bringing up the series you're biased against every chance you get.

And you wonder why people over here dont take your opinions seriously and say your bias is clearly seen.

Seeing that Jujutsu Kaisen isn't getting any color page for next issue makes me think it will have issue 15 cover. Issue 15 will be or Black Clover or Jujutsu Kaisen.

I also see Jujutsu not getting any cover until issue 18-19 for linking 2nd anniversary with anime news.

Not gonna lie, I actually like this one a lot. Taiyou and Mutsumi looks a bit different here (in a positive way), I love the coloring in their hair and Taiyou's eyes look super pretty. It's probably the light but it would be cool if Sui's hair wasn't completely black.

It's also Haikyuu!!'s anniversary. Jump will either give each of them a cover or skip one of them. Hell, we didn't even have a Valentine's cover this year.

Taiyou's arm looks kinda messed up in the CP, but overall a pretty cool look to the page.

I think all 3 will get covers, just not near the time of their anniversary, iicrc Black Clover didn't get it's 4th anniversary cover until March of last year, and HQ didn't get it's 5th anniversary cover until April 2017, nearly 2 months after it's anniversary

Dr. Stone hasn't gotten a cover since the Byakuya reboot came out so I'm not surprised that it's getting one. My question is when is the next Black Clover cover, seeing that it hasn't gotten one since last summer. I love this week's cover and OP's LCP, those cup noodle commercials are gorgeous.

Hori continues his stance on avoiding color pages whatever necessary even with a new volume on the horizon after three months. Looks like it's PUSHSAW MAN time!
