BC just got a color page. Dont really know what your concern is about with it.
I assume that's because there nothing really to have to promote BC on. It's not a series which Jump has motive to build up as it's neither a top-seller nor an up-and-comer, it's just a series with an established fanbase with nothing really needed to promote. It exists now to exist for itself, and nothing else.
I never said it was a matter of concern, I just pointed out a curious fact and nothing else. It shows much more concern from you being on the defensive about it than the other way around.
That twitter thread is a beautiful salt mine.

this gonna stick in my memory too, but for other reason: salty Western fans and a lesson of unique premise meaning jack shit when execution is pure trash.
BC was/is as life changing as Naruto was to me. I don't want to see it meet an untimely demise as it barges toward heights no ones ever seen before.
With how many open spots there are in the magazine Black Clover isn't going to get cancelled anytime soon. It'll likely get the Bleach treatment where it will stay in the bottom 5 with the occasional bump, with not have many CPs since it won't have much to promote and have passed its sales peak, and be allowed to stick around until it comes to an end. Though I imagine in time it would be gently pushed in that direction if the magazine does get a resurgence of newer popular series overtaking it. It won't have the same luxury as Bleach had in staying in that position for 3-4 years.
Is this unique though? It has happened with every single literal series that has been axed since Tokyo Shinobi Squad. Cancellation threads at this point are a repetition of the same commentary no matter what the quality of the series is.
I think TPGW writer it’s at a way larger scale than we’ve seen run a while(other than S8, which is obviously a special case)
IMO, a larger scale should include a larger diversity of ideas, criticism, and commentary. This is just having the same exact comment or meme but repeated 5 times, which literally gives you nothing more than what we previously had. The subject is always the same, western readers get attached to series that can easily end quickly in the magazine, and they later complain or feel sad. There's seriously nothing, it's just empty copy-pasted commentary for each published series.
They only update the numbers when a new volume is released and the next one only comes in October, it should be at least at 90 million in circulation by then.
More or less, except this time they hung up on the word plagiarism without knowing why people actually hated that plot thread.
The most used comments when a jump manga is cancelled (No 1 will. surprise you)
Why did people ate that plot thread? Remind me again. People keep saying "the Japanese hated the MC because he plagarizes, yet they dont take other stuff seriously" and honestly, I'm failing to understand here.
Long story short it flies in the face of self-improvement as a concept (which is integral to East-Asian mindset) and to Japanese readers Sasaki just comes off as a somewhat pathetic coward who continually fails to actually improve as a person.
I feel like that’s a completely false narrative created by some ppl.
When MC realized that he plagiarized the manga he felt he did the wrong thing, but then the author introduced an editor telling him some thing along the lines 'he doesn't know what his circumstances are but he should keep going for the sake of hundred of thousands of readers that fell in love with the series' so the MC was plagiarizing for them.
