#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.

Yeah, they should give Hokazono a monthly week off. If only to avoid KGB and One Piece being absent on the same week, because that can't be good for the numbers (and this is the second time in very short order).

Shinobi got a LINE game about stacking boxes inside Yodaka's brain

Haha! I'd love to play that.

Preview for Hal Formula, new racing manga by Kento Terasaka (Green Green Greens):

"With engines fired up with anticipation, we're off to a flying start!!

Put the pedal to the metal and leave your mark! The second installment of a three-part series of high-octane, action-packed new serials! A thrilling racing epic/romance featuring 56 pages with lead color pages starting with the cover!

What will become of Mitsuharu, who is struggling in the world of motorsports!?"


What do they mean, 2nd installment of a 3-part series?

Is this a sequel?

Me & Roboco color page scheduled for Weekly Shonen Jump Issue #29 is for celebrate the series popularity and the 6th anniversary which is coming up!

Obs: Just a detail, the color page may not be for the 6th anniversary, just saying that the 6th anniversary is close.

Wow, no anniversary cover 2 years in a row for Roboco. Little bit mean.
Perhaps I’ve misunderstood, but as far as I’m aware, pure gag manga (much like Super Psychic Policeman Chojo) are handled differently when it comes to covers and colour pages (right?)

So isn't always 100% that shueisha give it to them even if it's an hit

Roboco got the cover on its anniversary for its first 4 years like normal, it's only the 2 under Saito which have been relegated to just a colour page.

My guess is, as far as Under Doctor goes, WSJ probably gave it the print numbers of a flop and that's why it's selling out (they have given it a couple colour pages, but it has still been stuck in the bottom 3 past the first couple chapters). A series getting 6k on vol 1 would sell out everywhere if Jump anticipated it would only get 3k at most.

Granted 6k on vol 1 would still be a survivable level of sales in modern WSJ.

Imagine surviving as 6k seller in a magazine that sells 1 million copies per week. This is incredible.

Dropped both We Never Learn and Torture Princess, but I did enjoy Senyuu and I'm a big fan of Sweet Tooth and Oumazoo, so I'm kinda looking forward to the new series.

Feels like Under Doctor is definitely having some momentum, the difference of likes between both Under Doctor & Kinato's Magic 1st chapter tweet from WSJ acc is crazy, is 1.2k vs 200 likes LOL

Edit: Now is 1.5k vs 219, UD added 300 likes while Kinato added 19, that's crazy :eek:

Kudos to tanimoto having maybe the first 2026 success in WSJ; I’m salty it wasn’t Kinato or action adventure but still. That being said, if he doesn’t want a harukaze mound situation, then he’s really going to need to improve at his plot structure for arcs (particularly everything but the closing) and general plot writing as well as the choreography.

My guess is that UD is not good enough to be on most people’s survey (what top 3-5?), but Jump realized it’s people 6th, 7th etc. series and they would still support its volume release, hence why there is support for the volume yet low survey placements (it’ll need to do what I mentioned above to grow and not be a phantom seer situation).

Yeah we sure gotta wait to see how Shoseki rankings will be but something is definitely happening because in the last few hours Twitter is full of people talking about how they can't find the manga in stores because it's all sold out lol

The tweets about Under Doctor volume release and 1st chapter are all getting thousands of likes too, for a series that is supposed to not have much online engagement, things have changed quite a lot in the last 24 hours.
