He's also saying something about Kinato and Headbutt, so it looks like both are starting to wrap up? RIP

Huh, I didn't expect Kiyoshi to be the first color page, odd how much they've been pushing it lately.

Honestly, i wouldn't bother with UD and wrap it up together with the other 2.
I would rather patiently wait for his next work.

Oh dang I missed that too, very sad to see all 3 new series in the bottom 3, but hopefully next week will see Under Doctor recovering a bit.

It's great that Nue is getting a cover and popularity poll, but it's bullshit that Saito keeps putting Nue at the back of the mag. I don't believe it's about rankings with Nue. .

Although Under Doctors placements continue to make no sense to me. Is it popular or not? I don't believe it'll end this round, but ig we'll have to see how Vol 1 ranks to see it actually can stick around.

Its definitely living, but I was hoping that with a bunch of other series occupying the bottom now (Blue Box, Shinobi, Himaten, Nue), that we would see out of the bottom 5 for longer.

They're 101% giving that 2nd anniversary cover for Kiyoshi, they almost shoved Akane cp in the bottom with a anime ongoing for a regular Kiyoshi cp :XD

I don't believe Nue always lingers towards the bottom because of rankings, and more that Saito is a prude.
Like, Jump often puts fanservicey series towards the back (with some exceptions like Soma early on), but Nue is so damn tame in that department. Saito just doesn't like the series.
However, the series is clearly very popular given how well it's said to do digitally, as well as how its always ranked highly with Twitter mentions every week. Hell, it wouldn't have gotten that short web visual novel if it wasn't for being popular.

I'm assuming you meant to reply to a different comment, mine was about Under Doctor's placement lol. Nue is clearly pushed towards the back, but there's other series now that have been in the back half lately.

No, Ig I mistakenly read into and assumed when you said " with a bunch of other series occupying the bottom now (Blue Box, Shinobi, Himaten, Nue)" you were implying Nue was there due to popularity. My bad.

Better luck next Amemiya Kinato was definitely a huge improvement over shadow eliminators.
3rd times the charm for him hopefully. He deserves it. Wonder what type of series he'll do next.

It's probably more popular than the other two and they only need two series to axe next round. Maybe it has similar popularity, but they decided to keep it for other reasons like thinking the author has more potential to try to save itself or appealing more to the idea they have of the magazine.
