I guess Debby's doing well enough to stick around, I'd love to see more translations for it.

Though it's hard to figure out what even constitutes as success on Jump+ since it's online focused, and I'd imagine that means they'd have much higher digital sales than a normal physical magazine would. We've got series getting full runs while physical volumes sell nothing (or maybe don't even release at all), while others seems to get cancelled due to bad sales.

Only getting to see a top 4 ranking on the site at a time makes it difficult to tell what's doing well too.

The mobile application counts how many views each chapter of a series has, as well as comments. Those are also useful metrics. For example, each new Dandadan chapter has been garnering at least a million views at an extremely impressive rate - IMO it's on track to be to 2021 what Kaiju No. 8 was to 2020 and SPY x FAMILY was to 2019: a massive hit and future pillar of the platform.

how do you check how many views each chapter is getting? I've been trying to do so but i can't

You need the Shonen Jump Plus application, which is exclusive to Japan. I don't have it either, it's just what I've heard.

about the dandanan thing, i saw somewhere that the view counts were going down each chapter after a blistering start, seemed to be more of a initial hype due to rin/fujimoto but without the app can't say for sure

It looks so nice. I hope it succeeds, or at least survives. Honesly one of the best covers in both this and Jump+'s batch.

Having the MC blurred out off to the side in the background was a nice touch too since he's so concerned about not being in the spotlight.
