I don't think Blue Box will end next round, but if JK Hero survives this round we already have 2 potential cancelations for next round or more if either Kinato or Under Doctor end up flopping too.
We say see, saying mostly cause the summer batch is usually around the 29 to 30th issue. We also know its going to be just a two batch this time. Since we had three batches for three times in a row now.

Also, the reason am saying Blue Box is likely ending soon is just how quick things are progressing right now that I think that in a couple of chapters its likely ending. Just an opinion.
Isn't JK Hero like 95% safe for this round since the new batch replaces Gonron, Mage & Modulo? Or is the Modulo spot different?
I dunno, we will probably only find out next week to be honest.

Hey guys hopefully all of u are doing well!

I have a question hopefully u guys could help, do any of u guys know which was the last Jump series that the final volume had more than 12 chapters on it?

I think is rare but I'm curious to know if any series have gotten a BIG final volume
Good to see you, you need to go back to comment more 👍

Btw, more than 12 volumes i didn't find, i looked at many final volumes and most didn't even had 10 chapters, the ones with most chapters were Bleach, Nisekoi and Kuroko final volume with 12 chapters

We may have 9 weeks of oneshot, like when Yozakura and UU ended.

Can't say for sure
HxH also has 10 chapters ready to go. Or sometimes Jump separetes a bigger batch before and after golden week. Who knows

Is not, Modulo filled a regular spot, but since Jump isn't starting 4 new series there's a good chance of JK Hero staying because Jump would be with 19 series which is a low number, but if JK Hero ends it's also very likely that HxH will return soon at anytime to fill that space or they will just fill with consecutive one shots

I remember his art being unrefined and boring. I just look it up and it looks just like how i remembered them.
Meanwhile, the kid in that roku cover looks expressive and dynamic. And the whole drawing just looks way higher quality.

His first series looked pretty bad to be honest but he improved a lot throught Agravity Boys' serialization. Some of the chapter intro pages were specially good:

Looking back at some Agravity art makes me lowkey glad it only got one color page because it meant more intro pages like that one. Coloring was always his weak point, imo. Makes me wonder if he picked a horror aesthetic to go along with his muted color work.

Weekly Shonen Jump Issue #19 Cover: The Odd House of Roku


Obs: Post updated with a better quality version! 👍
That placement makes it look like he acquired a sixth ghost already.

Preview of Natsu no Mushikago (Summer and Fireflies) in the Weekly Shonen Jump Issue #20:

This spring, step into a whole new world of excitement!! The 2nd installment of J-New World’s three-part new series lineup: A 54 pages opening lead color pages for the new high school basketball series by Masayoshi Satosho, author of Momiji no Kiseki!

"The Playmaker who's taking the League by storm!! Who appeared before the Hotaru (Firefly) who ran away from basketball...!?"


Why do all good players always run away/disappear in manga? I mean, I get it makes for a dramatic backstory, but it's getting pretty overdone, to the point where it's actually hard to find a sport series that doesn't use this trope.

(5/8 sports manga on M+ use it, 2/3 of the last WSJ round did too)

i think I missed it when it was first announced, so sorry, but is the new series said to be full on comedy/gag like Agravity Boys? Or is it some kinda of mix of comedy and something else (Action, drama etc)?. Only reason I ask is because the character designs seem a little too "complex" to be a purely comedy series lol. But also Agravity Boys's designs were not really "comedy like" either tbf.

Thought we'd be waiting forever until Samura started getting official figures, so this was nice to wake up to. They did bad by Uruha though. What is that expression, lmao.

Happy birthday 🎉🎉

On Chapter 776 of One Piece.

My goal is to finish Dressrosa by the end of the week.
I've also started catching up with One Piece again, partly from seeing your excitement reading through for the first time, and also because I started watching the live action series which has just filled me with so much nostalgia.
I stopped reading at the end of Whole Cake Island, and I'm currently on chapter 941. Reading the colored chapters is such a trip too. Makes me almost want to read from the beginning in color because it just makes Oda's art feel so much more readable given how much he has a habit of overstuffing pages. But fuck, Wano is so good. I think this may be my new favorite arc.

I don’t know if anyone posted this yet but the English title is Roku’s House of Oddities
I saw that. I would say it’s an okay title, but it does lean on some macabre side of anthology show that was executive produced by del Toro, like his cabinet of curiosities.
