WnL still has the sensei route to complete (and it hasn't even started yet), I don't think it would be possible to hold Moriking for so long (even though they've held Mitama for 47 chapters).
I think it would be possible to cancel just Moriking and start only 2 new series.
Last year they kept Double Taisei, Beast Children, and Tokyo Shinobi Squad until ch 27 despite them all being total flops, simply due to them not starting a new batch yet. It's certainly possible for Moriking to last another 7-10 chapters until it needs to end (it'll be on ch 27 by the time the GFC finishes).

One lucky mangaka will get a few more chapters worth of pay simply cause Togashi can’t even be bothered to drop 10 chapters a year anymore

just because it happened last year, it doesn't have to happen again.

Honestly I really hope we don't see new series until maybe issue #1 , #2, #3 when WNL ends, there's been so many new series so close together recently that I feel like each new batch starts before we've had time to get used to the previous one.

We need a bit of a gap to let the current manga settle in first.

It probably will though, due to the GFC. They might start a new series right at the end of it, but it's very unlikely they'll start anything halfway through.

Same, we could wait 10 chapter to see agravity or moriking ending.
And still, we don't know if this current bach is gonna have an U19 or two so agravity could still LIVE.

We (and Shueisha) will know how Magu-chan cand Co. are doing in sales by the time GFC ends so yeah, there could be more chopping block candidates.

I don't think we'll get a new U19 series for a while, Phantom Seer's the only of the new 3 that'll be long enough to potentially end before the new year but reception to seems to have been really good (at least for ch 1) if the high views on the youtube trailer for it are an indication.

Blood Oath could join the club if it ends in January though, I think it'd get to ch 19 in the first issue of February.

High School Family had a double chapter to start, I figure it'll probably have more (hence it'll probably hit ch 19 before it's at risk).

Assuming the next round is 5 or 6 new series, who would be canceled ?

Agravity, Magu-Chan, and Moriking are locks. We Never Learn is close to ending, but it depends.

Everything else is up in the air.

It's true, I think 6 new series will be very serious. At most 5 would be enough, with the space left by Act age remains We never learn (which theoretically is over), Moriking, Magu chan and Agravity boys. It is 5 right.
But I think it would be complicated waiting for the completion of We never learn to cancel the others, after all WnL is in the middle of the senpai route, in chapter 175, and it should end in chapter 178 and the sensei route should have more than 9 chapters.

Well. This should be the last time I'm this late, since I'm actually home from now on.

(Chapters from last week, in case anyone didn't get that.)

MHA: Was it the intent that I got much more invested in the flashback than in the actual fight? Because I was.

BC: Instant Power-Up incoming.

Dr Stone: One win, one loss, one cliffhanger. Next chapter please.

UU: I love the little details in this one, like Izumo using Andy as a boxing ball when she's frustrated, or Apocalypse laughing his ass off in the background. They make the world feel so much richer.

Mashle: Glad to see some jokes again. When did Mash learn to lie like that? (The Divine Visionary has power level 6702. That seems like something worth remembering.) (Also the Big Bad is still cute. Dot is gonna be so pissed.)

Robocco & me and Moriking have a very similar style of humour, with the 'pets' doing absurd things and the straight man providing commentary from the corner. But R&M has the advantage that it can adapt to all kinds of situations, while Moriking just introduced its final boss. (R&M celebrating its 10th chapter doesn't come across as very ambitious though. But better than being overconfident, I guess.)

Phantom Seer and Our Blood Oath are the opposite: very similar premises, completely different tone. Though I can't fathom why OBO would decide to do filler in the second chapter. (Also how come the kid that was touted as a legend last chapter can't hold his own for two minutes?)

Ayakashi Triangle looks like it's attempting a plot after all. It's starting to remind me of both Kekkaishi and Natsume's Book of Friends.

Cop & Dolphin is.. also attempting a plot, I think? It's never quite clear with this series.

Yozakura was a little preachy this week. And those parents dropped their long-time convictions really easily.

Magu-chan: I thought we were going full yuri for a moment. Kind of disappointed it didn't happen (I don't particularly care for yuri, but it would've been an awesome way to ask somebody out).

AB: Reading a Wikipedia recap of a game I don't know the rules of isn't nearly as exciting as it was apparently supposed to be. Some of the jokes still worked, but the chapter where they were watching tv was more entertaining.

High school family does nothing for me.

Well, Chainsaw man looks like he's headed for the end. Things are happening very fast and I don't know if it will last 180 chapters like The promised neverland.
So I have no problem with having Phantom seer or Bokura, in case any of them survive.

Jump cover in HQ

Also, according to Baidu, Jujutsu Kaisen would have 8.5 million copies in circulation (despite the pic this isn't still officially confirmed, so there is a chance it could turn fake):


EDIT: Is confirmed. JJK has already 8.5 million copies, including volume 13.
