Garbage trash ass magazine that has no respect at all for their artists. Guess 100k per volume isn't enough for this biased editor, no wonder Nue never gets anime under this sabotage.

Cannon Master NOOOOOOOOOO

Also Hal Formula nooooo


But Cannon Master NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Also I know this was a few pages ago and we're in the middle of ToC stuff but:
I just recently binge read Yu-Gi-Oh for the first time ever. I had previously seen the anime as a kid and read some of the manga but I only now read the only thing from start to finish. I loved it. RIP Takahashi, what a great manga

And after watching DSoD, which is apparently a direct sequel to the manga and not the anime, I have to say... Seto Kaiba might just be one of the best Jump characters ever. Certainly the best rival in my opinion
YES! I've been advocating Kaiba as the best WSJ rival (wellll, 1A/1B with Vegeta) for years now and for YGO in general as a series, especially the manga. Always happy to see it get some love!

Brutal. Cannon master and HAL pretty much done for. Under Doctor still in the bottom 5 too. With SD ending very soon and WW possibly too, we have 5-6 open spots with HxH on hiatus. Hopefully gives Greykeith the opportunity to flourish. Seems like next batch will be between 4-6 open new series. Machida (Cannon Master)'s next series will be a successful; I am calling it! Seems like HAL Formula author might leave the mag or do a drastic change (I think he would nail battle manga that's detailed like HxH or JJK)

Official twitter account says Hokazono has already recovered so I guess the reason for the lower page count was because he was drawing these chapters while sick💀.

Vegeta can be 1B when he's able to create hologram torture technology to kill an old man just to spite that old man's grandson for beating him in a children's card game we can ignore the fact that the reason in the manga is because the mind crush actually did almost kill Kaiba and he had more reason to be spiteful.

This shit is ridiculous, there's no excuse for the clearly biased decisions. They just gave Sakamoto Days a LCP for no reason at all that could easily be Nue's LCP. They can't even pretend Nue is "too small" for it when they gave Shinobi a LCP for no reason this year and Roku just got a 2nd cover. I can already see Nue breaking the record for chapters without anime even though it was a success from the FIRST volume, fuck this!

At this point it's hard to not believe the theory about Saito sabotaging Nakano era series. He just demoted Kagurabachi in the cover even though it sells more than Hertz and Ichi together. Why did Shinobi even get a LN before Nue, the manga that sells more and is actually popular with both LN famous writers and readers? I can't find any other reason.

Not many hot releases that week if this is 27 and 31. KIyoshi barely made it in the top 50 when it sold 8k Edit: forgot kiyoshi had more days on sale and last week was only 3 days so it makes sense for them to be higher up with those numbers

Starting to believe the rumor jp fans are not vibing with the flashback arc... :grumble
Volume 12 is the climax of the akemura fight though so it's odd sales would dip like that. maybe distribution problems cause I know some areas only got new releases this week and maybe the numbers willl go back to normal with the month tally.

Writing was on the wall with cannon master getting a volume release a month after its peers like drawn to the fire and alien headbutt but sad to see. UD pulling itself up is good even if it's bottom five. Wishing for takeru's health to get better.

Weekly Shonen Jump Issue #42-43 Cover: Group
Bharat's placement on the cover is so awkward and isolated.It's extra depressing.

It's true, this is a level of pettiness Vegeta can barely match. Which is crazy, because he's Vegeta.

BRUH, GOLDEN FUTURE CUP IS BACK!!! :eek:

Next week one shit is already the 1st contestant!
They're submitting an entire shit?!!?!? 😲

It's a term that's overused by people online but the aura farming between Atem and Kaiba at the end of the movie was on another level. Shit got me so hype

Not to argue on the other stuff but Kagurabachi is smaller on the cover because it's not in the issue lol.
