This means Modulo is no threat to top Oricon year-end 2026
Unless some new manga gets a boost from an anime, it’s pretty much guaranteed to be One Piece. Maybe Frieren would have had a chance if it wasn’t on hiatus since I could see it getting a boost this season but no new volumes after the most recent one

Blue lock still has a decent chance of getting first place. It depends on how well japan does at the world cup.

Kagurabachi potentially increasing in sales with this volume is a great sign.

Modulo sales are really good too. Comparing it with the sales of boruto isn't useful. That was 10 years ago when the physical manga industry was bigger. There are currently less than 10 ongoing manga that outsell modulo.

Also seeing someone hertz becoming an actual hit is really cool to see. I really like the vibe the series is going for.

Makes me wonder what caused the steady decline with volumes 7 and 8 if the boost on 9 wasn't propped up by the popularity poll, because another 7k and we're already matching the 4 week total of volume 8.

They’re usually late after the break week, if we’re REALLY lucky we might get it today but I wouldn’t hold my breath:/

Next issue:
LCP: Akane*
CP: Blue Box, Roboco*, Oneshot*

*Note: aside from Blue Box color page, everything else is not confirmed by BB's leaker.

TOC according BB's leaker:

Ao no Hako is 8th from the top.
Himaten is 5th from the bottom.

Also according to them, Himaten's plot is moving so fast towards the endgame. Yeah, not a good day to be a himaten fan right now...

Since I already declared in the Himaten thread that, aside from the Honoka-focused chapters, there would basically be no substitutes, I’ll keep this fairly rough.
The entire chapter is a Himari-focused chapter.
Tenichi’s inner thoughts:
“If I want to move my relationship with Honoka forward, I have to end my job as Himari’s housekeeper.”
Himari’s inner thoughts:
“If I want to move my relationship with Tenichi forward, I have to stop being his client.”
Himari tells him she’s quitting as his client and asks him to return the house key. As a result, he ends up quitting, and Tenichi is left shocked.

Teaser line: “The end comes suddenly.”

Alltogether odd. I wonder when Elusam is ending if there’s no color page for it next week, but otr is gone. Additionally, no new series next week but a series has ended this week? Weird.

I'm surprised that Elusive Samurai won't get color pages for its anniversary in the next issue; I hope it won't be long. Also, with OTR ending in the current issue, does that mean Elusive Samurai won't end this round? Since WSJ always ends series in order from oldest to newest.

I think the order only applies to cancelled series

Wow, TES, Hima-Ten, Sakamoto Days, Otr, Gonron Egg and Harukaze Mound will all probably end this year, with BB and WW possibly ending as well?

In a weird roundabout way, doesnt this mean that himaten actually has good pacing for a romance manga? Hmmm...

It's nisekoi without the slog, basically.

Weird to axe himaten first before any of the 10k slop. I feel like that one has the most potential to be big if it got a well animated anime like dress-up darling.
Maybe it gets an anime when it's axed like kill blue? Who knows.

I just can't see shinobi or kiyoshi getting a massive boost from an anime. Shinobi would have to be animated by freaking mappa if thats the case.
