CSM trending doesn't surprise me, given the content of the chapter.

As an aside, this chapter was the catalyst that made me decide to avoid spoilers going forward, which is a big deal for me since even with Toriko/Bleach, I read the spoilers all the way through.

 

[TyVip]

I read the spoilers all the way through.

Question: the magazine does have a digital platform in their native Japanese, right? Because it’s well past midnight over there, and stores definitely aren’t open right now. I’m asking because I’m wondering if the Japanese crowd are reading along with us right now (with VPNs)

 

[Ryuusei]

Ah, so here's the rankings from Chapter 8 onward and...

6

11

19

18

21

19

...oh dear. Oh dear. What a sharp decline. Those rankings are like... rock bottom tier. Yeah, this really wasn't popular, huh? This is totally fucking ending in 2 or 3 chaps.



Sometimes a series does so bad in the ToC that Volume 1 sales don't even matter at that point. Nobody's gonna buy it. This seems to be one of those times.

You'd think it would be kind of safe with that #6 ranking, then the #11 ranking would be ok and then you just give up on it lol.

Yes, they can read it digitally.

That’s what Jump+ for.

 

[Konja9]

It might very well end next chapter

Yeah. However, the ID in Mangaplus shows that Ghostwriter will have three chapters more at least.

 

[TheEnhancedExe]

I'll just post IDs in case.

7311 My Hero Academia
7479-7482 One Piece
7483-7486 Jujutsu Kaisen
7487-7488 ¿?¿?
7489-7492 Black Clover
7493-7494 most likely MHA
7495-7498 We Never Learn
7499-7502 Dr. STONE
7503-7506 act-age
7507-7510 Chainsaw Man
7511-7514 Mission: Yozakura Family
7515-7516 Mitama Security (2 IDs)
7517-7520 AGRAVITY BOYS
7521-7524 Undead Unluck
7525-7528 MASHLE
7529-7532 Moriking
7533-7535 Bone Collection (3 IDs)
7536-7539 Time Paradox Ghostwriter
7540-7543 Ayakashi Triangle
7544 ¿?¿?
7545-7548 Magu-chan
7549-7552 Shakunetsu no Niraikanai
7553-7556 Me & Roboco

I'm guessing that one of the two spaces with two ID slots, either the one behind Jujutsu or the one behind BC, will be a new series that replaces Mitama, because it would need exactly two IDs. The one single open ID will probably belong to the new series that replaces Bone Collection.

I also noticed that 7548 is the open ID and Magu-chan has the IDs from 7544-7547. Just wanted to point it out, although it doesn't really matter in the end where exactly the open ID slot is.

They may be using the digital version of weekly shonen jump on jump j books.

 

[Newkerzy]

Yeah, that probably explains it.

 

[SharkBait]

time paradox ghost writer has the smartest writing in jump wow.

 

[yadayada]

CSM now Trending 1st in Japan. Holy smoke.

Hm? I only see it at #6.

 

[TyVip]

I don't get the reference?

it's a joke on how it's only a week wait, there is no point in reading spoiler, and unless there are scans you will be waiting even more

 

[aneekl]

Hm? I only see it at #6.

My mistake anyway.

 

[Kobī-Stan]

This was for sure a good issue of Jump. Rankings will be tough

 

[Lil meen]

This has to be WSJ’s best issue of 2020. JJK, chainsawman, dr stone, mashle, undead unluck, MHA, and act age all had some of there best chapters (especially chainsawman, UU, and mashle). It’s sad because CSM probably has 50 more chapters at most and I don’t see this series having a happy ending. I can only hope that the anime adaptation is actually good (Maasaki Yuasa should really look into this manga).

 

[Chuck_Atlas]

Not surprised with Mitama sadly, but definitely was expecting this from Bone Collection

but it’s definitely being a solid issue this week

 

[Lil meen]

With the amount of good series in the magazine 1 week is to long sometimes.

 

[SharkBait]

I dont know if chainsawman is something that would last beyond chp 100-120. Feels like its just doing stuff you do when you're about to enter your final arc.
