Next batch is probably Yozafam & Hakutaku. KB is by no means performing great but if it ever is actually getting axed it'd be after that.

DO YOU THINK NEW DECTECTIVE SERIES NEXT WEEK WILL SURVIVER? I THINK IT LOOK NOT PROMISING AND WILL SOON GETTING AXE.

Hell yeah, brother. Insane bias on my part but detective stuff is a favourite so I'm hoping they pull through.
Character designs already are super appealing. It just needs to actually be good, which knowing Bokuben I have some faith.

I’m back. And I want to say thank you for the large amount of support from my post 2 days ago, and I appreciate it. I apologize on the way I was, but it was coming from a place of fear and I really don’t know what is going to happen now with the result and how everyone is going to be on the forum going forward. So having said that, I will switch it to something positive and hope that you would like to hear my thoughts on the ToC and Tsutsui’s return. Also note that, my reviews will be shorter than in depth going forward and I won’t be on as much for the sake of my mental health. But I’m glad to be back until then.

Okay, so I am glad that Saito made it easier on us for cancelling Murakami. I will be forever grateful that he didn’t make it as hard on all of us with a larger batch. Despite some series declining they are really not that bad. But when seeing Tsutsui’s return after We Never Learn, I’m excited actually. Sure we might have harem hijinks, but at the same time, the concept is intriguing. I do like a good mystery, when it is done right. But I don’t want the romance to be a distraction that will take away from the actual case. Otherwise we might have an i tell c situation. I will only tell from the first chapter if it will succeed. But I just hope that some of the character charm is there just like We Never Learn.

Has there been any successful regular detective series in Jump?

There's been a scattering of long running supernatural detective ones, but I can't think of a successful normal one off hand.

I tell c will always be successful in my heart for how stupid it was. I mean it, it was hilariously insane and I enjoyed every moment.

Without any supernatural elements, I can't remember any that were successful in the jump,maybe on 70 or 80 they have something

Tell C could have worked if the first cases hadn't been so stupid

City Hunter if that counts.

This is actually the closest to a family dynasty in WSJ I think, (Shinuki or someone more knowledgeable feel free to correct) unless we stretch and consider manga power couples who were big in WSJ and other manga magazines like Togashi and Naoko Takeuchi. Assuming this is true, it's kinda wild given the magazine's long history we've never had mangaka related to each other, like surely a parent-child pair (or any other relation) would've popped up somewhere.

Kenji Sakaki (Enigma) married Kyosuke Usuta (Jaguar) in September of 2010, right after Enigma started and the funny thing is that Jaguar finished its decade long serialization just 2 issues before Enigma started, so Jump was very close to have a married couple serializing 2 series at the same time, the only negative thing is that there were a few malicious people acting like Sakaki got pimped by Jump because of Usuta, which is dumb since she was already a assistant working with Amano on Reborn and clearly talented.

Wait, how does Sakamoto have a higher 3-day week 1 one than Blue Box last month + Dandadan with the anime boost lol. It might actually be growing again.
Sakamoto Days 18 - (35,359) - 3 days
Sakamoto Days 19 - (45,267) - 3 days

Other than that, w/e results from Akane and Witch Watch.

Blue Box struggling in the face of Dan da Dan (multiple volumes top 50)

Blue Box volumes must be in the 50-100 range though.

Each anime is visually appealing though there's barely any word of mouth for Blue Box while Dan da Dan is getting heavy word of mouth.

Romance anime rarely hit the mainstream in the same way an action series does. Dan Da Dan is also at least 30% more animated than Blue Box so it just really has an advantage over it. Helps that Dan Da Dan has some Chainsawman energy flowing through it, and we know what the worst mainstream fanbase is.

What Shonen Jump needs to create a new BIG FOUR (Aside One Piece)?

I agree if we're talking about backlog, but vol 17 is well under Sakamoto, which probably means its boost over 2 volumes will be less/equal too than Blue Box's boost over 1, unless Sakamoto is just doing really well this volume.

So it looks like Dandadan is doing really well backlog wise, but it's not translating amazingly to current volume sales (it's still doing good, but I expected more from this volume, the 3-day week 1 this volume was only slightly better).

What Shonen Jump needs to create a new BIG FOUR (Aside One Piece)?

Sakamoto Days, Blue Box, and Kagurabachi are the obvious first options. Akane and EluSam would be next in line, but those aren't flagship material. Tbf, in order for 2024 to not be an utter wash in new series, Ichi will have to do really well anyways, but no guarantees.
