Kazoku Family isn't ranked yet.

But about Undead Unluck going from 3rd to 5th last?
As a series that is doing well; doesn't mean much. Jujutsu, Chainsaw, Black Clover, etc. all bounce wildly up and down.

Black Clover does. Recently, Jujutsu occupies almost always the top 5 and Chainsaw is usually 5th or 6th. The real wild cards right now (other than BC) are UU and Mashle, with the occasional burst from Yozakura.

JJK and Chainsawman (and Act-Age) used to bounce all over the place. It's just a matter of something has to be on the bottom. And it's not going to be MHA or OP or Dr. Stone or JJK now that it's become an official pillar pretty much. And the new series are mostly too new to throw them there (or maybe the last batch was just surprisingly successful, we'll see).

Noooo, Magu-chan, why are you so low? D:
Man, AB and Moriking are so dead. Only question is who of them gets axed first.

Main takeaways from this TOC are:
  • Mission: Yozakura Family at 4th is an impressive jump. Now to see if the rest of that more serious arc continues strong.
  • Me & Roboco in the top 5 again! It's had the best rankings so far out of its batch (5th - 4th - 6th - 5th), wonder how/if that will translate into sales.
  • Hard-Boiled Cop and Dolphin with a more stable ranking this time.
  • Magu-chan, Moriking, and Agravity Boys at the bottom again; all are on the chopping block it seems, just depends how many need to go next round and which they'd rather axe first (I'd guess Morking).

It is interesting to see that many thought that Roboko would be in a worse position than the others and in the end is the one who is getting the best positions in comparison to the others, even not winning a CP until now. I wonder if that wouldn't happen to Bokura.

It is a pity for Magu-chan. As someone said previously, the series is good and would make a good anime for kids, however it is probably not the right magazine for this manga.

The response does not seem great so far, but hopefully the Jump board will let it stay for a bit more.

Magu chan should have gone to saikyo jump, unfortunately he didn't do anything to stand out, it's just a cute comedy manga, but that alone is not enough. It is difficult to differentiate when there are 8 comedies in the magazine. If Magu chan were more drama, as act-age, it could be better

While I think Magu-chan is pretty funny and I thought it was the best out of the batch early on, it is becoming a bit more repetitive. I feel like it showed a few strengths, but the manga doesn't really make use of them a lot. Magu and Naputaaku have so much potential as characters, but I feel like that potential often isn't utilized. I feel like it is taking a similar route to Moriking which has also become more and more repetitive over time.

On the other hand, although I didn't expect this to happen, I enjoy Roboco more currently, because it makes use of its strengths. It's really good at parodies, 4th wall breaking and running gags. The gags themselves also seem to have more twists to them and are more unpredictable, especially in the most recent chapter. It seems to be trying to build a world where the mangaka can do whatever he wants, similar to Gintama, just that it is aimed at kids. So it honestly doesn't surprise me that Roboco is consistently doing well so far.

It is. But it's visibly slowing down.

What is the difference between the KNY special chapter of next week and the one people will receive in theaters ? Is it the same ?

I repeat myself: this cover is probably for me the best 2020 Jump cover.

Be careful with My Hero Academia spoilers if you want to avoid them. Practically the raw is out and is a very crazy chapter, so there are already a lot of hyped people on Twitter.

That's a pretty decent Mashle CP.
