The ToC is gonna be wild without neither HeroAca or One Piece on top of everything else that's ended.

 

[WyldViolet]

It all depends on how many new series start, since they never go above 20 series total in the magazine for more than a few issues.

The most new series we've had in one year in about 3 decades is 14. There's 12 so far, so 2 more new series (and hence two more manga ending) seems reasonable going by past records and considering we still have a lot of time until Jump 2021 starts.

So I think we probably will see Mitama and Agravity Boys end this year but possibly nothing else until WNL in early 2021.

There were 16 in 2014

Dr.Stone is going to be first for sure in this situation. Is the only manga usually in the top of ToCs that is ranking this week.

Haikyuu isn't also ranking since it gets the cover, so I'm very curious about what will close the top-3 with Dr.Stone. Moriking being 2nd would be kino

 

[Aeneas]

I'm seeing 14 (going by Jump's calendar).

 

[Mankichi Togawa]

Random thought: when was last time Jujutsu got a top-3 Jump rank?

Neverland and Kimetsu are over, One Piece and MHA are absent, Haikyuu doesn't rank, only Dr.Stone is there so its 1st spot is almost guaranteed. Is like a golden chance for Jujutsu to do well in a rank and not being stuck on the middle for once.

It will be interesting to see how Black Clover behaves too

 

[tirakai]

Doesn't Dr Stone have a colour page?

We could very well see Moriking or Mashle take the #1 spot this week. Imagine if we got a Moriking/Mashle/Undead top 3.

 

[Aeneas]

Doesn't Dr Stone have a colour page?

So does Moriking.

 

[tirakai]

Then it'll definitely be a weird week. Calling Mashle at #1.

 

[Ryuusei]

Random thought: when was last time Jujutsu got a top-3 Jump rank?

Issue #9 this year. Mashle was the cover that issue and Jujutsu Kaisen came right after it and before One Piece.

This is probably the most intrigued I've been for a ToC in while, it will sure be fun when it drops tonight.

 

[Mankichi Togawa]

Summarizing: MHA, One Piece (absent), Haikyuu, Dr.Stone and Moriking don't rank, and Kimetsu and Neverland are over.

We have some hours before ToC happens. Let's do these two things:
-What 3 manga are getting the ranked top-3?
-Where will Jujutsu Kaisen rank?

My bet:
-Mashle, Black Clover and Jujutsu
-Jujutsu 3rd by default

 

[Thehoennhippo]

Mashle, Jujutsu, Act-age.

 

[Minsel]

Yozagoata, Undead Unluck, and World Trigger.

 

[AxelNIna]

Jujutsu,mashle,undead unluck

 

[tirakai]

Mashle, Jujutsu, Black Clover

I'm thinking they'll put up something else in the top 3 that maybe normally wouldn't be there (like Black Clover or Act-age), so that they can still have recognisable established series at the start of the magazine.

 

[ItsSamu]

Mashle, Jujutsu, ACT-AGE

 

[pamuchi]

Jujutsu, Mashle and Moriking or UxU

 

[Halloween]

New poll is up.

 

[Tamil]

I don't mean to nitpick with these poll options again but why combine plan to read & actively read into one option (yes)? They are completely different which can lead to misleading results.

It's there for people who read the series to a certain point, stopped for whatever reason, and then plan to catch up where they left off eventually.

You either have the intention to read a series, or you don't, ultimately. But I can't just ask that straight up because it sounds awkward.

Basically, if you have no intention of reading a series, always select no. If you do have the intention, select yes.

I changed the poll questions to better reflect what I'm asking.

Feel free to change your votes if you feel it's necessary.

Have you thought about including young jump manga in Sunday's polls ?
