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

A manga returning with a Sequel after so many years... it would be really a rare case. In that case maybe even Psyren, Katekyo hitman reborn or else could return hopefully

Because there were 10 years gaps between series, right? It's such a disingenuous comparison even you know it's different from usual. And people mentioned other examples before, doesn't mean they were good ideas.

And here it is. lol Now people will just beg for endless sequels because we surely don't have enough remakes and sequels everywhere and even this magazine has to be nostalgia pandering.
You're being way too dramatic about these things Kiaida, i legit don't get why when you, me and everybody are just readers, not WSJ investors or somethng, i'm not even commenting much because is such a non issue lol

And about Haikyuu, this is something that i've been thinking for a long time, it's not because of Bleach coming back, Furudate himself still highly engaged with the series, also this isn't nostalgia bait, it would be if this was Jump trying to force sequels of old series to return for the sake of IP name, Bleach Hell Arc is happening because Kubo himself wants to do, not because Saito wants, and why would Jump not accept serialize that? That would be a insanely bad decision to no grab the opportunity of having weekly Bleach in the magazine again for a while specially when one of your flagship series is just about to end in a couple of weeks lol

I think haikyuu ending is perfect like this... they shouldn't give another ending

Btw, this week Sakamoto chapter that will be published is the 1st chapter of volume 30 if vol 28 & 29 has 9 ch instead of 10, and the final battle just started last week, so yeah, a entire final volume for the final battle and epilogue, it checks out 👍

Theres still 7 hours left you know...
Personally I cant wait for Kubo being... well KUBO. Just so all illusions you have about him will finally be beaten out of your nostalgic heads.
Also HxH most likely getting 20 chapters cour since if it was just ten they could start at the end of 2025 already. The reason might be to have both Togashi, Kubo and Sorachi at the same time

What series do people expect will be the next to get a sequel anyway? In or outside WSJ. When you go back to the 90s basically everything got some kind of full length sequel or spin-off, but that's much, much less common for 00s works.

In fact has there been any to get one until Bleach right now? There's been a few series with special short term mini-sequels, and others that switched magazines due to health problems or content not matching WSJ well, but the only 00s series I can immediately think of that got an actual full length sequel manga so far is To Love Ru. And even that happened due to odd legal issues from what I recall rather than being a true planned sequel manga.

Again, why is this being seen as a full blown sequel?

Dr Stone had multiple epilogue chapters but I wouldn't call it a sequel. If you're not counting not main jump titles then you surely need to mention obvious JoJo/Boruto/Rurouni Kenshin

Well, talking about future sequels:

-To Love-ru Part 3: 15th anniversary this year, stuff on GIGA and Yabuki teasing new projects for the series, obviously this one will not be on WSJ and i wish it would be like on Grand Jump or something so they can go full perverted on it

-Haikyuu!: like i said Furudate is pretty involved with the franchise and doesn't seem to shy away from drawing the characters as adults, i can totally see a sequel on WSJ and jp readers would lose their minds lol

-My Hero Academia: not in manga form but anime, more precisely a movie showing their adult lives and etc, written by Hori

-Kuroko no Basket: i do have the feeling Fujimaki will eventually draw a Kuroko sequel with them in the NBA or something, but i don't know if on WSJ

-Katekyo Hitman Reborn: i feel like Amano will eventually go back to Reborn, this one on J+

-Toriko: Don't need to say much, Toriko in space like it was literally teased in the final chapter, i feel like this is bound to happen someday but this one will be a seinen manga, so no WSJ.

Not going to say Psyren because i'm still banking on Iwashiro returning in few months with a new series and i wish there would be Yuuna Darkness for the 10th anniversary but i think Miura will return to WSJ with a new series

Look back through the 90s and it's totally different as far as full sequels go, looking at all the proper new long running hits:

- Hana no Keiji - yes
- Slam Dunk - no (but he has made other unrelated basketball manga since as spiritual successors)
- Yu Yu Hakusho - no
- Outer Zone - sort-of (an intended sequel started, but it went on hiatus early on and it's unclear if there's plans to continue it)
- Pennant Race - yes
- Bøy - no
- Ninku - yes
- Luckyman - no
- Nube - yes
- Rurouni Kenshin - yes
- Midori no Makibao - yes
- Sexy Commando Gaiden - no
- Hoshin Engi - no (it did get a 1 volume special gaiden, but no full sequel)
- Yugioh - yes
- I"s - no
- Takeshi - no (but it did return a couple years after the series' cancellation to give it a proper ending)
- One Piece - still ongoing
- Rookies - no
- Whistle - yes
- Hunter x Hunter - still ongoing
- Shaman King - yes
- Rising Impact - no
- Hikaru no Go - no
- Prince of Tennis - yes
- Naruto - yes

when you remove the two that are still ongoing, just over half of the long running hits of the 90s have gotten sequels. I may have even missed a couple.

Feels like jjk is very likely to get another spin off or sequel to coincidence with S4. But it will not be in WSJ and I doubt gege will write or draw it.
