WEEKLY SHONEN JUMP THREAD RULES​

#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

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.
It is probably gonna surpass 300K in sales.

On the note of the new volumes, Gonron Egg v3 just has a couple oneshots packed in rather than any bonus chapters it seems.

not only that but the volumes are being resold by almost 10 times the price. I'm looking for it on Mercarijp and the prices are like 4.000 ienes for volume 1, it's crazy

Mama Yuyu vol 1 sold out and got a reprint before KGB vol 1 got a reprint lol

Probably should wait to see some actual UD numbers.
Mamayuyu was published before Kiyoshi's debut in the magazine.
The editors of Jump will have no reason to cancel Under Doctor if it sells more than Kiyoshi.

We don't have numbers, that's her whole point, something can go out of stock and still not sell above the bar if it had low initial stock. If anything, the posts above are implying more that these sales are from scalpers for some reason, so we don't know much about its actual popularity.

Speaking about horikoshi obi, i'm gonna make a prediction that Hitoner Vol 1 will also get a Hori Obi too because i remember he personally advertised the oneshot on his personal account last time, not even a retweet to the official jump account.

I don't think he's ever done it for anyone.

They printed less for vol 1 probably because of paper and ink shortages + prices up.
It created a FOMO effect that could be an interesting marketing strategy.
I want to know the real number of copies sold.

They’re treating Haiji like he’s a limited edition pokemon card to be scalped 😭 do they not realize reprints are imminent?

I do agree with the overall sentiment that we’re gonna need to see some actual starting numbers to get a good scope of things here. Everyone speculating 10k or 20k or 300k is kind of baseless from what info we have right now, but once we see day 1 shoseki we might be able to start actually estimating (which… is hopefully gonna happen soon later today?)

Under Doctor physical volume on Amazon right now is nearly entering under the 1,000 range while digital is 690th, which is definitely a good sign even if isn't tracked by Shoseki:

1,012. Under Doctor #1
690. Under Doctor #1

And Kinato also seems to be doing decently considering everything:

2,866. Kinato's Magic #1
949. Kinato's Magic #1


Hope both can start well on Shoseki 🙏

You think it is gonna be higher than 60K?

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:

Update, Under Doctor chapter just hit 2k likes while Kinato has only 251 likes lol the difference just gets crazier, didn't expected UD chapter to garner this amount of attention on Twitter.

Actually, first day volume sales are already over 33,000,000 copies sold. Selling higher than One Piece's peak for an entire year.
We're seeing an actual phenomenon on our hand. Apparently even western filmmakers like Quentin Tarantino and Edgar Wright have reached out to Shueshia for the rights to direct an American film adaptation, and Kellogg's has even started production on Haijio's Healthy Frosted CerealTM.

.The age of the UNDER DOCTOR is here.

That's crazy, is a ratio of 1:8 in favour of UD
