#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

Nue is the proud successor of the Hinomaru Zumou / Ayakashi Triangle WALL
Honestly, Hinomaru's treatment was always so strange for me. Like yea, it eventually started being put at the end of the mag, but it placed 1st for its 8th chapter only for it to sell like shit. It's why I don't fully buy that rankings are always related to votes, and often are done to push series they want to do well.
Which is why Under Doctor's placements feel so weird to me.
Like, they're giving it color pages, and now a Twitter page, yet they keep putting it at the end of the mag. You'd think if they wanted it to stand out they'd push it higher. At least higher than Nue given Saito hates it. Like, why not give it the Kiyoshi treatment? Saito never makes sense.

lol Hinomaru Zumo was legit a great series and loved by the jp audience, even today on Jp Forums the series still praised and respected even by the usual people that only praise big sellers, it was a sumo series, it was never going to sell more than what it did.

I'm not saying it wasn't a great series. I adore it and you should remember how much I pushed it back in the day.
It certainly had a strong niche audience that adored it, but like, the fact that it technically ranked 1st place for its first "ranking" never added up given how it ended up preforming sales wise. It seems to me that Jump wanted to push it. And for good reason, it was great. However, I can't imagine it actually got the most votes out of the whole magazine for its first chapter.

But survey votes doesn't necessarily correlate to volume sales, we know this since forever lol

Sure, but that discrepancy was still pretty huge. Survey votes also don't necessarily correlate to its placement in the ToC is moreso what I'm getting at.
Like, if Saito wanted Under Doctor to be bigger, he'd give it the Kiyoshi treatment. However, he's just not.
Tbh, I'm expecting it to sell marginally better than Kinato.

Nah, Nue will def be before Kiyoshi. At least I hope. It has a much larger audience than Kiyoshi, as well as more content to adapt.
Hima-Ten def deserves an anime. but I wonder if it'll be like Blue Box and get its announcement at the very end.

Yeah, i'm not saying the series got actual more votes than One Piece & Naruto lol, but for them to place the series in the freaking 1st place with the 1st chapter the survey results were for sure that great.

I'm sure they weren't bad, especially as it had such a great first chapter. Just I feel that its placement was primarily to promote it in the hopes it'd be bigger than it ended up being.

I think Nue getting its anime announcement before the end of this year feels certain. And then I'd also bet on Himaten? Just because if it is ending, then it very well may get its announcement around its final chapter, or at jump festa, a bit after it ends.

And then yeah, 2027 seems reasonable to have an announcement for ichi in march-may, shinobi around summer, and then november/december for kiyoshi if its still running by then, otherwise, alongside its final chapter. I could also see an early Hertz announcement if they really wanted it.
