Henceforth, I will be deleting posts that complain about Weekly Shonen Jump having too many/not enough gag/battle/exorcism/sports/etc series.

These posts are not insightful, and do not meaningfully contribute to this thread. Also, this decision is not up for discussion, so posts discussing this decision will also be deleted.~ Halloween

I thought Agravity has a contest right now?
Yeah, pushed on twitter. Keeping it in the bottom 5 of the TOC since it began doesn't help it. If it got some push on the TOC, I feel like it could sell better.

I wonder if you get a lot of people who like the new series but don't buy the volumes until they know it's going to stick around (since they don't want to invest in something that'll just have a rushed cancelled end).

For example would something always at the bottom like Agravity Boys be selling a lot more if it was always at the top of the ToC, even if it was completely artificial placing and not actually doing that well in votes?

i mean thats why things get reprinted, people dont always buy on day 1 or month one or so on. I feel like it has to just be a fraction of people who specifically wait until a series is established to buy it, if you like the series...why wait?

In all of these series, you can see their JPN hashtags and see the JPN people that buy the manga and look at their bookshelves some occasional post. I think one is surprised by how many people buy just a few or so volumes of a series or own numerous jump manga that were cancelled before v5.

Pretty sure the vast majority know that buying the volume is what will help their series survive even if TOC placements arent the best.
That said, I'm sure there would be a tiny fraction who would wait for a series to survive to start buying.

Despite not having the largest second week, Kimetsu no Yaiba 21's combined total is the second largest cumulative total in the second week with 2,649,711 copies, only behind One Piece 66 with 2,689,552. One Piece 66 had two more days in its first week, meaning had Kimetsu no Yaiba 21 the same amount of days in its first week, it would probably surpass that figure. Also, Kimetsu no Yaiba 19 is now the third best-selling volume withing a single year, it's behind One Piece 61 by 4,339 copies so it will surpass this figure next week.

Both My Hero Academia 27 and The Promised Neverland 19 are doing well, they both have sold more than what their respective previous volumes sold after their second week (397,396 for MHA 26 and 419,628 for MHA 27; 374,540 for TPN 18 and 412,211 for TPN 19 ) and both of those volumes had a five-day first week, while this month's volumes had a three-day first week.

Dr. Stone 16 is around 30,000 copies ahead of volume 15 (both with three-day first weeks) and has sold more than what volume 15 had sold by its third week, the series got a really nice boost from Sekaju. Black Clover 25 is ahead of volume 24 in its second week, but it's by a small margin of around 5,500 copies, meaning its first week was a bit more front loaded than usual, which was expected this time. However, it's closer to what volume 24 sold in its third week so it will be interesting to see how it does this week. Act-Age 12 is doing well too, it has sold more than volume 11 during its second week (110,964 for AA11 and 115,649 for AA 12).

I get the feeling the lockdown due to COVID really sapped manga sales across the board. I noticed that BEASTARS sold about 11.5% more than last volume with the same amount of time, so it's not just a Jump thing. I'm excited to see how far the MHA and TPN volumes will rise!

Yes, as #33-34 is a double issue that releases on July 20th, it means that on the week of July 27th, there will be no magazine published and #35 will be released August 3rd.

Issue 35: 3 August (My Hero Academia cover, 6th anniversary. I personally am betting for Tabata congratulating Horikoshi in the author comments)
Issue 36-37: 10 August (our first groupal cover without Hinata, Tanjirou and Emma, who will join Luffy and Deku in the front?)
Issue 38: 24 August (the issue where HxH will break its longest hiatus record)

I am betting new serialization round on issue 38 or 39. Burn the Witch has also from issue 38 to 41 for appear since Nak said Burn the Witch was coming in summer.

I wonder if Covid possibly pushed the Burn The Witch film back, thus causing the manga to get pushed back as well

This was on my mind. The date itself was never finalized when it was revealed aside from being XX.XX.2020. So December 2020, is a possibility.
The manga was shown to be XX.0X,2020. So Kubo technically has 2 more months to release it.

Question - What, in YOUR opinion (don't attack others), are the dumbest shonen trends/cliches that still exists today in WSJ?
