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

...How did Shueisha even allow this
Japanese editorials don't had a relationship with bookstores, they do with every country editorial only. If the bookstore do a really bad thing and the japanese get to know that they could talk with the editorial of that country and through them do something but is a really weird thing.

I really hope Amemiya will get a hit in some years. I love his style, tbh. And his writing isn't really entirely bad too. Kinato wasn't my thing but he definitely improved a lot through his serialization.
It was an improvement from shadow eliminators for sure, it just fell short in a lot of places.

I’m wondering if the areas you believe it fell short in were present during the first volume or the early point he likely received notice of the cancellation. The tone and overall quality noticeably took a dip after the first volume and I think that’s because of the axe.

I am curious if Horikoshi wants to serialize stop laughing. On one hand, doing it as a one shot, when I think he could easily serialize whatever he wants seems to indicate he sees it as a contained story; on the other hand, his past cancellations might mean he is more cautious and wants to get reception.

Aside from Horikoshi’s has there been any buzzy one shots this past year or so?

Man, seeing a new To Love-ru chapter & Yuuna-san chapter after all this time is so peak, the Yuuna chapter in special was hot with Kogarashi & Yuuna kiss :hurr

These really ignited my desire of To Love-ru Part 3 and a Yuuna Darkness sequel 😭

Also the Tsukuda & Shun and Tsutsui one shots were just okay, it's not like you can do anything with just 4 pages, no idea why they didn't have a full one shot, at least Tsukuda & Shun one :confused:

Kinato's Magic by Kento Amemiya will be releasing Volumes 3 & 4 simultaneously on October 2nd, 2026.

Well it was obviously going to happen, the doubt for me it was this or next round, i wonder if they're going to put a bit of less chapters on vol 3 because right now we have 28 confirmed counting with issue #39, 2 chapters for vol 4 but i do feel like a new round might start on issue #41 instead of #40 so that would mean 4/5 chapters, probably a epilogue too.

The qrts on this are putrid
The thing you did miss in your tweet about it is that a good portion, if not most of these, aren't actually the anti-ecchi crowd, but dumb yuri fans that thought they had a lesbian in the manga and went berserk when it wasn't the case, and we know how some of them behave online when they don't get what they want, that's what is going on in many of these quotes

they are going to axe it unfortunately... It's a pity the art was great and had good potential.
same as Drawn to the fire... that will probably have the same fate

Added Aug 12 & 13 too since it wasn't posted.

About Kiyoshi, it actually checks out with how the other volumes performed, vol 2, 5, 6 & 7 also had only 2 weeks of sales because their 1st week had more than 4 ~ 6 days, it might return on 16th too :kkthumbs

That's not much for a battle shonen manga with 9 volumes. You always try to downplay Kiyoshi's problems.

I fear Under Doctor might be on the line for an axe before its first year.

Kiyoshi is already at its 104th chapter.

If it works, why doesn't it sell?
If we think like that, nothing on the magazine right now sells since no manga right now sells like CSM pre-anime.
