#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.

#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.

One Jump mag/person/store. The cashier scans the ID of the buyer. People can buy up to 3/person in total, one in 3 different stores. Even if the buyer goes to another store after that, he can't buy more. Of course, they can ask their friend or whatever to go to the store too, but they won't be able to buy 100 copies of Jump and it will be a pain in the oshiri to buy a lot in a short time. They'll have to work waaaaay harder to get their mag. :cheez

EDIT: would require some database, but hey! When the Japanese want to create mendoukusai systems, they can do it very easily.

EDIT: I wrote 3/person because sometimes people buy for foreign friends.
That ID collection will cause so much PDPA issue

Huh, Under Doctor top 5, I guess it really might have a fanbase. Otherwise, rip another bottom 3 color page for 2B and DTTF all the way to the bottom 2??? I assume both series are DOA unfortunately, I'd bet 2B will drop into that stable bottom 3 from this state. And roku bottom 5 is a bummer, just makes me sad.

The Sakamoto Days cover & lead color page isn't for story climax but it mentions "heading towards the climax"

Confirmed no Bleach announcement this week right? Guess next week will be the big Bleach reveal.
Nope, maybe next week.

Would've been completely out of left field if the app hadn't leaked it, lol. I was thinking late August given how ambiguous they left it.

under doctor lowkey chilling and seems like so is roku, but drawn to the fire and kinato are surely gone in a few weeks? also had to do a double take to see if that was actually kawaguchi back already (even as a one-shot that has to be like record time for an axed creator to come back)

I think Under Doctor and Roku are safe for now. Especially UD lol.

Class 2-B following the DTTF method of having the colour page at the bottom. Either Sorachi turned it in late or they just both suck in the rankings and Saito decided ahead of time that this whole batch would get mandatory colour pages lol.

Happy for the KGB return. I'm assuming Saka Days is ending next week? Or soon anyway. Surprised at no Bleach announcement but every week Saka gets closer to ending, Bleach is closer to retuning, so hey.

Witch Watch ending soon too. Kinda feels like the end of an era tbh.

So this has to the final Kinato arc right? I don't see this series making it past 40 chapters imo.

They don't give the cover to any last chapter. Only did it thrice in history to some of their biggest legends, not even Naruto or Dragon Ball got it. Story still will take a while with Sakamoto having to come back and an epilogue.

Oh you're right, I misread, I thought it was just getting a normal colour page. Still a while to go then!

I'm not the biggest Kawaguchi fan but that oneshot does sound interesting based of it's name.

Kinato's going for a world record for most bottom placements a series published in Shonen Jump has, even above series that were specifically put in the bottom like Murakami. Going for a 60 chapter streak here. With Blue Box, Hima-ten, and soon, Sakamoto Days and Witch Watch looking to leave, there's so many cushions that even a full batch won't mandate cancellation.

Also that Class 2-B Color Page is disastrously low, about as low as Drawn to the Fire. Really not hiding what they feel about these series.
