#1. No fights or personal insults.
#2. No bait or troll comments with the intention of being annoying or starting serious heated discussions, if i notice it's a continuous behavior, i will warn the user or delete the comment.
#3. No toxic attitude towards series, no one is obligated to enjoy any series and it's totally fine to criticize what you don't like, just avoid posting gratuitous hateful or toxic comments about X or Y series, if i notice this behavior, comments will be deleted.
#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.
#5. Don't post news about series from other magazine or publishers in the WSJ thread, post in the series own thread, but it's fine if you're mentioning other series or magazine to express a opinion or reflection about Shonen Jump.
#6. Any tweet, specially japanese, about news, update or some interesting thing about the magazine or series has to come with a text of what that tweet means and also be on topic, if not it's going to be either deleted or i will edit the post.
#7. Refrain from self advertising or advertising Youtubers videos in the comments.
#8. Constant fanart posts just for the sake of praising a favorite series is prohibited, this rule doesn't apply for official art by Jump artists posted on social media, they're fine to post.
#9. Don't discuss or hype chapter spoilers before Sunday release, only comment if is related to a series surviving status and do it only inside the spoiler tag.
#10. Regarding rule #9, an exception will be made for when we have new series, in this case, spoilers will be allowed only for the first 3 chapters of a new series for the users who are interested in knowing informations and details about the new series, these spoilers will obviously be kept under tags to protect anyone that doesn't want to be spoiled, so don't worry about it.
~ Shinuki

I hope everyone reads the rules and use it as a guide to behave well in the thread, thanks! :kkthumbs

Ngl when Sakamoto Days and Blue Box end, the magazine is going to look rough. Their mid tier sellers aren't growing to SD or BB levels and just seem stagnant and none of the new manga they release are breaking out. Jump is going to be praying that Kagurabachi is a long runner. At the very least Ichi looks like it can stick around for a long time.

Actually I don't see ryo saying shinobi. It looks like Kiyoshi, Akane, oneshot? Where are you getting shinobi from?

Storyline wise, does not seem to be a long runner. Probably kny or jjk lenght at most. And Hokazono already got the health issues VERY EARLY ) even gege shown the crack only after shibuya arc...

He made a mistake in the text and put "Undercover" as getting the color page, what you saw is the fixed version with Kiyoshi lol
👇

They need something like One Piece in 1997, a series that instantly becomes face of the magazine and looks like it could run for over ten years. OP also came out in a time when Jump was still recovering from the Golden Age ending so something like it popping up now would be very nice albeit unrealistic to expect in today's industry. It's kinda crazy to think they had 4 of those in the 2000s with OP, Naruto, Bleach, and Gintama. When you have that many mega hit long runners, the magazine in general feels more stable and there's less pressure on the mid tier sellers to try and 'carry' the magazine.

Its selfish of me, but considering Iruma is a series like for Champion, I'm kinda hoping that Ichi somehow lasts like 400+ chapters as well. Of course we'd need to see if it maintains quality, but its a 100k seller before the anime, so I think it could manage to explode if done well.

That is an interesting point you brought up, but I will save that after I get my sleep.

The Disastrous Life of Saiki K. TV Anime is celebrating its 10th Anniversary!




And according to Ryo, Asou Shuuichi comment about the anniversary seems to be hinting about wanting to do a Saiki manga sequel lol

I would absolute kill for a Saiki sequel, wow. Especially if it was in Jump? Sorachi return, Saiki return? The golden age of gags would smile down on Jump once again, and thats without Nakano at the helm lol.

Kagurabachi and Kiyoshi was the easiest call in all prediction history hahaha
I'm still stunned from Kiyoshi good performance recently, it gives me good hopes for near future (surely the 2nd anniversary cover at the end of june is locked)

UNDER DOCTOR continue keep its midtier ranking going against everyone's judge (all around the internet, not here)

Yeah I don't doubt that with this performance, it'll get that anniversary cover. Its probably coming in only 3-5 issues too, its basically here.
Watch Kiyoshi get an anime announcement before Nue does.
I'm still pretty confident in the order of:
Himaten --> Nue --> Ichi --> Shinobi --> Kiyoshi, unfortunately
Just based on seniority, popularity, and like one of these not being a battle shonen lol.

They REALLY don't want to say the word "ending" huh
We all know "climax" is their jargon for ending
