#4. Don't bring politics or off-topic stuff to the thread, this is about Weekly Shonen Jump magazine and mangas, so keep any conversation about topics that aren't related about anime & manga outside the thread.

I'm expecting a color page closer to chapters 9-10. I think the first chapter seemed to be liked as much as Under Doctor's, and if that didn't get an immediate color page, then I'd imagine jump decided to wait a chapter or two for each of these upcoming series to gauge if they were worth it or not.
I imagine UD not getting a color page would be because if it's overall reception. Even Ch.1 was unanimously enjoyed, I don't think Jump makes color page decisions 2 months out (maybe they do tho). It already lost steam by Ch.2 for UD.

I think whether Kinato gets a color page is solely based around if it's popular enough or not; I don't think UD's lack plays any specific role since it seems the least likely to stick around imo

Alien Headbut and kiyoshi were amazing...
Kinato's good, has you said it has Fairy tail vibes

Under doctor is actually the weakest among the 3.

Also, Mage and Hero Girl look in axe status and not only Gonron? P.s. the final boss is 🥵🥵🥵🥵🥵 why he didn't introduce them earlier?

Nah, it’ll be Shinobi getting the cover and lead CP the same issue Nue gets a center color for its anniversary.
The next cover for Nue should be a crossover cover with Shinobi. Just so that it is remembered that even in its highest moment, it still lives in Shinobi's shadow.

Issue 15 votes but this time I decided to rank everything I read because I have nothing better to do (except Nue because i'm not anywhere near caught up, sorry Nue fans)

Top 5
1. Himaten
2. Ichi
3. Kinato
4. Roboco
5. Modulo

Everything else
6. Blue Box
7. Kagurabachi
8. Under Doctor
9. Hertz
10. Sakamoto
11. Akane
12. Witch Watch
13. Kiyoshi
14. Shinobi
15. One Piece
16. Hero Girl
17. Mage
18. Alien
19. Gonron

I'm not even close to done with the original JJK but Modulo was pretty good for what it was, it truly was our Modulo

A shame the November batch is getting the triple axe, would've at least liked to see Mage and Hero Girl go on a bit longer

Alien Headbutt honestly isn't doing it for me, IMO hype and aura moments don't work without even a slightly compelling cast and that's the absolute last thing it has; Kinato and even Under Doctor do this better

I am quite literally the only person alive who cared enough to notice this but Osaragi's facial expression on the first page of Sakamoto this week is basically identical to Homura's (from Cosmos) expression on last month's Sunday GX cover

WEEKLY SHONEN JUMP ISSUE #15 (2026) - AUTHOR COMMENTS!

One Piece (Eiichiro Oda)


Vaundy’s Tokyo Dome show was way too cool! I’m so impressed by how he continues to evolve!


Someone Hertz (Ei Yamano)


Volume 2 is now on sale in Japan! I received a bellyband endorsement from Soichiro Yamamoto Sensei! I’m so happy!


Sakamoto Days (Yuto Suzuki)


Congratulations on Modulo! It was super cool and fun, and I looked forward to reading it every week.


Ichi the Witch (Osamu Nishi)


Congrats to Akutami Sensei and Iwasaki Sensei for Modulo! I’ll be looking forward to your next works!


Me & Roboco (Shuhei Miyazaki)


It was so good I got cursed. Akutami Sensei! Iwasaki Sensei! Great job! Domain Expansion! Huh?


Shinobi Undercover (Ippon Takegushi)


I got my hands on a toaster, so I’ve added sliced bread to the morning menu for the first time in years.


Kagurabachi (Takeru Hokazono)


Don’t end, Modulo!!!!!!!!!!


Alien Headbutt (Akira Inui)


Job well done on Jujutsu Kaisen Modulo! I was surprised and entertained every week!


Blue Box (Kouji Miura)


Congratulations on Modulo! I can’t wait to see what you two come up with next!


Jujutsu Kaisen Modulo (Gege Akutami)


Having color art published alongside Iwasaki-san was the greatest learning opportunity! See ya later!


Jujutsu Kaisen Modulo (Yuji Iwasaki)


All I could do was hang on as I burned through all my fuel over the past six months. I’ll gain strength and return again!


Under Doctor (Kyo Tanimoto)


I caught the flu for the first time in my life. I want the whole world to be nice to me.


Witch Watch (Kenta Shinohara)


It’s too sad for Jujutsu to be over. I want to read another one of these fun sequels or spin-offs.


Kinato’s Magic (Kento Amemiya)


Congratulations to Akutami Sensei and Iwasaki Sensei! I’m overjoyed to have been in the same pages as Mahito.


Akane-banashi (Yuki Suenaga)


Congrats on wrapping up Modulo. I was so happy to be back in Jump with you!


Hima-Ten! (Genki Ono)


I’ve started breaking in some leather shoes recently. They’re still so hard that it hurts to walk in them.


Nue’s Exorcist (Kota Kawae)


I put a lot of thought into which card set that comes with wafers I should talk about here, but I ended up heading home without deciding.


Ultimate Exorcist Kiyoshi (Shoichi Usui)


I’m having fun playing Mario Tennis Fever with my staff after work, but I’m learning how deep the sea is when I play ranked match.


Hero Girl and the Demon Lord Call It Quits (Matsuri Hatsubina)


I was surprised every week! Congratulations on the conclusion of Modulo!


The Mage Next Door (Hideaki Nabe)


It’s too soon since I thought I would still get to read Jujutsu! I loved Dabura.


Gonron Egg (Shuhei Tanizaki)


My seat cushion is flat as can be. It used to be so thick.

Since this week Under Doctor will now start to be ranked, I do have to wonder what exactly are we expecting starting next week with the next issue after this one.

Will it be a batch of new series or will Blue Box get its cover for its anniversary?

I don't Shueisha has any faults for just 6 weeks. This author probably had health problems even before serialization

Is it OK if I stick to the manga for One Piece? Even thinking about watching every episode of the anime makes my head hurt.

Probably the best choice, considering the filler and padding choices in the episodes’ direction.

Do you ever worry you'll be too old for anime and manga?
