#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.

#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.

Either the entire batch are getting color pages for promotional reasons (ala Mamayuyu, Kagurabachi, and Two on Ice) or Sorachi said he's too old to do color pages so they gave Class 2B's to Drawn to the Fire instead. Could be either or honestly.

The only thing I can make sense of is that jumps just trying to support a sports series getting off the ground; not that that it was earned. Or maybe the whole batch is getting one and 2B is next week.

Also guess blue box for sure ending next week

More confusing is under Doctor and (to a lesser degree) Kinato. What’s going on with the survey rankings?

You know what? With Blue Box ending here, Sakamoto Days ending soon, Himaten just ending, and Witch Watch coming up to the final fight, I really wonder if Jump is just going to be a bit generous here with the lesser performing series, to try and get some success out of them.
This also tells me there was a boost for those volume sales, and no actual survey votes of Under Doctor, lol.

I don't care how much of Under Doctor or Kinato's sales are scalpers, there's no way Drawn to the Fire's more popular than them lmao. Literally any time I see Drawn to the Fire get any sort of discourse in Japan, it's negative.

I'm pretty sure its a last ditch effort, like Under Doctor's color page. Tho that makes me afraid for Roku, as roku just got one. Maybe they're both in danger :(

Under Doctor color page wasn't a "last ditch effort" lol and Roku has ranked pretty well so far.

If Blue Box is ending next week, it not getting a final cover is ludicrous.

Ok maybe Under Doctor is a bad example, but there's been a few last ranking series (I guess Aliens Area is a good example?), that randomly get a color page but then sank back into the bottom to die soon after.

At least Kinato will go down as having the best performance of a bottom 1 manga for years to come lol
He might actually go for another arc if Sakamoto Days ends this round.
