I saw the latest Yuuna. Sagiri shot up the list for me. Finally, an actual fucking kiss. Two actual fucking kisses. I need to read the translation, but if Muira doesn't do a goddamn harem end after this, I'm grabbing my torch and pitchfork. xD

 

[Ctkk]

The new MHA spin-off seems to be outselling vigilantes in shosheki.

 

[DeidaraGrimmjow]

Wasn't Hear Gear cancelled?

 

[Thehoennhippo]

huh, shouldn’t Agravity volume 2 also be June? That’s odd.

 

[OtterBrigade]

Wasn't Hear Gear cancelled?

It got a chapter on Tuesday so unless that was the final chapter, nope.

 

[Blink22]

So Guardian Vol 1 comes out in July then?

 

[Ryuusei]

So Guardian Vol 1 comes out in July then?

It's scheduled for May. (Yes, before Mashle)

 

[Jovan]

Wasn't Hear Gear cancelled?

Nope, not for now at least. It helps that the editor of the manga is Shihei Lin (who also is in charge of Chainsaw Man and Spy x Family, two arguably biggest newbies for Jump and Jump+ in 2019), so it could last longer than it really deserves to (like Moon Land for example).

So Guardian Vol 1 comes out in July then?

Just like @Ryuusei has said, Volume 1 is out in May. Guardian Vol 2 and Agravity Vol 2 (also absent) are probably coming in July.

"That" spread had some fucking amazing art..as I have said before, Miura is an underrated artist.

Why is this thread sticky now? I thought it was deleted lol. It gets new posts regular enough I don't think it really needs to be sticky though.

Well, Act-Age and MHA were far and away the winners of this week.

RIP Guardian of the Witch.

 

[Shinuki no Reborn]

This week the added votes changed the rankings quite bit, MHA was first without the added votes for example, Act-Age had a monstrous number of extra votes. Also, Mashle was saved by the added votes, if wasn't for it, would be under Agravity Boys (but still not in the bottom...)

Damn, Act-Age must've had a seriously amazing chapter if it beat out HeroAca this week. I'm really gonna have to get around to reading the manga soon. As for HeroAca, this is what happens when a cool minor character with potential actually gets screentime and begins to live up to it. Bonus points for being a female character as well!

We Never Learn's position is going to be interesting come these next few weeks. Depending on how long these alternate routes last and how well they're done, it's position can either maintain it's high position or potentially fall drastically. (Also, if each of the alternate ends are 9 chapters long like Uruka's, then We Never Learn somehow found a way to extend itself into 2021. Wait... these alternate ends would have to be as long or as substantial as the Uruka route, otherwise everyone'll still think of Uruka's route as the canon one, which doesn't seem to be what the author's going for.)

As for the newbies...I guess 4 or 5 out of 8 ain't bad. Seems people are giving up on Guardian of the Witch, though, if it's going down to ZIPMAN's level.

RIP Guardian of the Witch.

inb4 the extra pages next week are a sign of popularity :P

Agravity boys, Undead unluck and Guardian of the witch received extra pages, shows that publishers are interested and see potential in these series.

But agravity boys are complicated because they're at the botton, and haven't been in a good position yet. I don't know if we can say that they are being well received.

It’s hard to say until we see sales. If a lot of these newer series are being well received( Witch’s Guardian, Agravity Boys, Yozakura, UxU, etc.) than that means that the magazine is even more competitive than its been in years if even many of the newer series are being received well.
So if most of the magazine is doing well some of the series obviously still has to be at the bottom
