Iron Knight survived this cancellation round after all? Or do you think it's still possible for IK to end next week?

Unless it had one of the most rushed final chapters ever, it survived cancellation. There is no reason for them to cancel it at this point as they only needed to end 3 series to make space. Keeping it until next round gives it a fair chance, and gives one more possible buffer to the newest series.

The 10th Year Anniversary Project for Death Note is announced; it is the collaboration with Real Escape Game (popular event in Japan). But, it said part 1, so there going to be more projects coming-up.

Would be great if it's only about part 1 of the series though. :P

The Death Note countdown clock thingy's still counting down with about 5 days to go:

Given the fact that they went so far as to make a website with a countdown clock, I don't think their plan was to give the news through a Shounen Jump ad. Especially since I'm pretty sure Shuueisha's aware that news from the magazine always leaks early. I could be wrong, of course.

The project going to announce on the March 3 (at the same day as the official release date for Issue 13). So, that's most likely the current announcement and the further information going to release later.

 

[Asgaroth]

probably wrong, because they never cared before that it could leak. I hope there is more to it because at least now i'm disappointed in the announcement.

He has a really pretty face (lead). The other looks like he'll be the really fired up type. I wonder if the lead is calm and collected cool guy type?

Wait wait wait, World Trigger is fifth?! Lol I though it was sixth... I think this is the highest position ever since it's ranking in top 3 in its first 20 chapters isn't it?

No, in issue two and three (2014) (see first post this topic) it was fifth and third.

In 15st volume of Jump "Toriko" not ranked.
In 16st volume of Jump "Toriko" and "World Trigger" not ranked.

 

[kewl0210]

These correspond to chapters when Toriko wasn't in the magazine, remember. If it's 8 weeks. Or maybe it's from the week Jump was off. I forget. Anyhow, don't take single low ranks too seriously.

I think it will get the typical 18-19 chapter axe.

Ah yes, I forgot to check which series were absent 8 issues ago. Removed Toriko from the list

EDIT: mistake, 7th ^^;

This Week's Jump Comic Sales:

26. Kakuriyo Monogatari #2 (32,759)
27. Gintama #53 (32,033 / 301,671)
32. Shokugeki no Souma #6 (28,448 / 277,726)
36. Isobe Isobee Monogatari~Ukiyo wa Tsuraiyo~ #1 (25,777 / 50,167)

 

[susanoo13]

Shokugeki so close to the 300K, I want to see it break that mark already and it probably will either next week or next volume in 3rd week like now.
Great second week for Isobe, at that pace with probably another re-print who knows how well will it do especially for it's genre!

 

[SharkBait]

Those Isobe Isobee Monogatari~Ukiyo wa Tsuraiyo~ sales are most impressive I think considering its volume number and such. Thats like even better than World Trigger and Soul Catcher(s) debut.

It is much better than their debut, iirc they didn't even chart.

 

[N0R7H]

It's impresive how much SnS sells, but if get an anime I'm sure it'll double the sales.


Also, I just read the first chapter of Illegal Rare and Stealth Symphony. I really like IR, reminds me to HxH, but IR first chapter catched me more than HxH one. AxL remids me to Kenshin, being overpowered from the begining.
And Stealth Symphony... Well, the main character is very generic, and the story didn't catched me at all, and the cp was chaotic for a first chapter (it is good for a last one like beelzebub). I will read the second one, but if it remains like the first, I'll drop it.
