Still in page 4 and I already see people has absolutely delusional prediction. (You know who made the most absurd one. There is only one)
Nope. Being delusional would be predicting to have one's own manga in Shonen Jump, you know, the one you have all in your head and that would be A F**** HIT if only somebody like Oda sensei or Hokozono sensei would draw it.... :derp

Nobody did this, so it's ok.:hee

  • Hiro Mashima debuts a new series
This sounds nigh impossible to me, Mashima just finished Eden’s Zero and that was while he was also both writing a biweekly series and fully authoring a monthly manga on top of that. Even if he’s still raring to go, it'll be at least a year gap like he’s done between his other main weekly series, and I doubt it will happen anywhere but Magazine given his 25-year history and ongoing patronage of Kodansha. Plus the guy’s almost as old as Oda, so for his own sake he should probably chill out a bit.

Still; big if true.

Feel like Kill Blue is more likely to get cancelled than get an anime. Honestly a <25k seller getting an anime would be wild. If there is anything that encapsulates how washed Jump is nowadays, it would be that. If you wanna give it a chance to rebound, do that but an anime? That’s crazy to me
Well a manga like RoboCo sells even less, and has an anime and movie planned Lol

Black Clover still in giga
UU and MYF both end, UU early in the year and MYF in the middle
Me and Robocco becomes the second oldest series running in the mag at some point
Burn the witch gets some news, but nothing else
Sakamoto Days anime boosts the anime a bit, but not significantly
Elusive Samurai becomes Matsui's longest serial and is still continuing at the end of the year
Witch Watch anime doesn't cause much of a stir
Blue Box finishes or is closed to finishing by the end of the year
Akane, Nue, and Kagurabachi all get anime announcements
We spend the entire year talking about Kill blue and Astro axes only for neither to get axed

Hima-ten and Syd Craft still continuing by end of year

New series predictions:
1 new serial from Asou
1 new serial from Kaku Yuuji
1 new serial Yabuki/Miura
1 successful action series that isn't exorcists
4+ new exorcist series, none of them land
At least 2 more rom coms, 1 sports, and 1 gag, only one will land.
No sign of Komi, Sorachi, or Shimabukuro

Its a wild prediction to be sure, but again its what it is: A prediction, not confirmation or anything.

Would like to add that i see that many agree that Itsuki Takegamo has a very good shot at making his debut alongside Natsuki Osonoe.

By the by, noticed several folks yearning to see the return of Hiraga, author of failed series "Neru: Way of the Martial Artist", to the magazine more than Kawaguchi. Something changed or was Hiraga's newest one shot "Nahual" stole a lot of attention online? Cause never seen anything of this one shot of his anywhere.

I'm ngl it's more likely we see a full miniseries at Marvel from Yuji Kaku than we see him doing a Jump series again. He's already done two one-shot stories for Marvel this year and both were pretty solid.

If taizan,kawaguchi,neru author & phantom seer duo come back in 2025. It will be one of the best year of jump 🗣🗣🗣

AKA THE REDEMPTION 4

PS kawaguchi deleted all his artwork on X so high prediction that he will come back in the first or 2nd batch

Really? Last time something like that happened was with Kento Amamiya of Shadow Eliminator. If so then i think we might already know at least one failed returning author. Hopefully it comes with some new talent cause who doesn't like witnessing newcomers rise to fame with their own craft and storytelling.

HeroAca still getting 700k volume.

Horikoshi really should do a HeroAca: Next Generations, make it peacetime like Boruto except with BakuDeku or do like Solo Leveling sequel.

Nothing surprising but wow. Long gone are the days of series doing more than 10 million in a year.

For me, it's just a matter of time. Last year I correctly predicted Tsutsui's return for no reason other than enough time had passed since Bokuben ended. I also thought enough time had passed for Hiraga to return, but since they were a greener author I figured they might give him another one-shot to keep testing the waters, which is what ended up happening. I think this year they'll return to the magazine proper, they can only keep doing one-shots for so long.

As for other people, perhaps they too have seen the light and finally recognized Minya Hiraga as one of the great mangaka of our times and are now clamoring for their return.

Nothing to do with predictions but I took a look at the winners of the shinsekai contest and Treasure too, the one before that, and I saw that only 10% (I didn't count but...) of the winners of these contests made a career in manga. I was shocked. I thought it was more than that.

Or maybe it's just that they don't have their pages, that's all... (I don't know mangaka's names, not interested in it, just in their manga. In exchange, to prove my respect and love to them, I don't pirate manga. :derp )

For those who want to count and get the real percentage, it's here

(I just know names you say like... all the time :derp )
