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

Going to post the volume covers tomorrow, the version right now is way too low quality considering tomorrow there'll be a already good version to post! it will be worthy, covers are pretty good (Roboco 28 is Kagurabachi parody lmao!)

Usui is becoming the next Gondaira with all these color pages.

Its pretty unlikely we would have two years like 2025 in a row, but if this time next year Roku is the only 2026 series still around then Saito really would be a failure and need to be removed immediately. I don't think that will happen, but at the moment Roku is the only one we can definitely say is sticking around. I am skeptical of Animal Signal's standing, color pages don't mean definite safety in the long run and its only been ranking above the series that are definitely getting cancelled sooner or later. We'll have to wait and see if it retains its place as a mid-ranker or drops to the bottom once all of those series are gone.

Also JJK coming back? What???
Romcoms tends to get a way longer leash so all it really needs to do is keep getting color pages and not be in the bottom consistently.

Actually not even Gondaira got this amount of color pages in 9 chapters, Usui is a monster, his art isn't even degrading lol
The crazy part is the designs are so detailed and complicated. I know there is digital now which helps a ton but Goku is relatively simple in terms of character design and Toriyama did Super Saiyan to avoid inking meanwhile we have Usui with a heavily tattooed, multiple piercing main character.

I do wonder who in Jump is pure analog v. Pure digital v mixed. I think Oda is mostly analog and I have to imagine Nue is mostly digital.

Curious which series have become the big winners this year in each magazine and which magazine won the year and which are the series to watch in the immediate future?

I think there was a video showing Usui doing a color page for Kiyoshi and it appears that he's mostly analog, which is pretty impressive to do on a weekly basis.

As things stand right now, Magazine has probably done the best with both Uminesou (Seo's, what, 6th hit?) and Sensensenki. It'd only take Ura or Greykeith being a proper hit to even things out between them and Jump though. I don't think there have been any really notable hits out of Sunday or Champion this year but I could be wrong.

I think it will be included in the Naruto one.
Naruto future is the movie, boruto isn't seeing a new anime for some time.

this may sound strange, but drawing manga digitally may actually be slower and taxing than in analog
