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

me being kind tired of exorcists mangas doesn't mean i will hate every new exorcist manga that are published.

I'm just tired of it, but i still can enjoy some of them when they are good, like kiyoshi
Furthermore, you speak as if the magazine has many manga with exorcism themes, but the only ones with this theme in the magazine are Nue and Kiyoshi, and neither of them takes this theme as seriously as Jujutsu and Kimetsu.

Okay, hear me out on this:
I would love to see another exorcism-like series like Nura in Jump again where Yokai/monsters are portrayed as the good guys

Nue not taking exorcism seriously.



And this is literally just the latest chapter.

please stop exorcists series we have already 3 (and all 3 are good)
i want something different (like UNDER DOCTOR, as idea of storytelling.. not as medical/shonen manga haha)

and a plus (that it never happens), something like Quit laughing, Shijima (a horrorish story with mythological theme, not specifically the Horikoshi new idea)
as last the serialization of Kemono Kuru

Demon Slayer was a vampire hunting series rather than exorcists, just calling the vampires Oni to be more Japanese. It doesn't have any of the themes of purification that's at the core of exorcism as a genre.

If Nue had started like that, perhaps it would have more readers.

2, don't tell me you consider Roku, because there wasn't a single situation involving demons that put the protagonist's life in danger.

@redon I read somewhere you had a theory for the constant breaks? Was that true and if so what was it?

Even if those were resolved on one chapter, they were still dangers to Roku's life.
And it was completely ignored in the following chapters, and even those who read it don't comment. They comment more on the comedy than anything else.

They were not completely ignored. But I know how this works. At least we know Roku is a somewhat exorcism manga.

Just because it appears doesn't mean Roku is the new Jujutsu Kaisen or Ao no Exorcist. The exorcism theme isn't even that important.

We will have to wait and see.
There's nothing to expect, the manga has 27 chapters and most of them are just comedy with nothing really relevant. Even if the next chapters showed something, it would be very little, and then more, I don't know how many, chapters of just comedy.

We could see the rise of the new Kochikame.

It’s clearly going to be a witch watch/gin Tama type series. Mostly comedy but will have arcs of action and seriousness.

Which is good considering Witch Watch is ending soon. At least WSJ got a good replacement.
