Maybe to overcome the curse you need to make a manga that's about Baseball and Soccer at the same time.
Murata and Inagaki came closest to breaking the curse, and only by substituting football with american football. Hard to imagine what kind of fantasy football could succeed in this magazine at this point in time.

Haikyuu is the only big seller with a side story.
Spring Weapon lives on! Holding those popularity poll results hostage plus side-story advancements are going to make this one inch through another cancellation round.
Lmao, I didn't even think of this announcement that way. Spring Weapon does it again, sasuga. I guess it's not looking good for Cross Account and Shuudan?
Cross Account is definitely heading out, probably as the first one to go. The most recent raw had some "this is obviously nearing the end" plot developments that'll allow it to be wrapped up incredibly soon. Rushed = 1 more chapter; It could probably fit everything nicely in 2 more, Anything more than that is just buying time for the new serializations and one-shots to begin.

Not Jump, but this was the biggest surprise to me. I really like this series, but I had no clue it was selling like this!
Told ya spring weapon won’t be going anywhere soon, not this round. Sometimes i’m always right it’s scary.
I'm telling everyone, 10 volumes and 85-90 chapters lol.
Don't have your hopes high for Full Drive.
Lots of quickly cancelled series somehow ended up getting gaiden chapters during their short runs.
I wouldn't mind seeing Full Drive go. Didn't like the art or characters, even though I really like ping pong. Maybe it could still redeem itself, but I just can't really get into it and wouldn't mind taking a gamble and seeing what else could take its place

you think Dragon Ball Super can make the top 30 seller list for the year?

the manga changed from 20+ pages in a month to 40+ pages a month (pretty impressive Toyotaro)

which allowed it to change from 1 volume every 7 months to 1 volume every 4 months which is the norm for monthly manga

I think it will either make it to the bottom of the list or come close to the top 30

however next year it will definitely make it with ease

So it's basically the characters from Bokutachi and Yuragi-sou drawed by Tsutsui? Or Miura drawed Bokutachi's characters? I can't recognize...

Amazing poster. I like how they paired up the girls with who would basically be their equivalency from the other series

I still cant believe something so pervy is in a kids magazine.
and I still don't understand what make Yunna an unreadable gross ecchi and make WNL innocent and pure wholesome romcom according to "certain people"

I check out both every week and some weeks WNL chapters outdo Yunna's in ecchi and fanservice department

It sold 3 volumes within the cutoff which is basically the norm for monthlies already. Sales should add up to around 1.1 million.
If it makes the list, Hunter X Hunter will be right above it.

That's a gorgeous colour spread. The Haikyu magazine cover is also quite nice.

I love Wotaku, it's great and it's quite literally a smash hit manga.

Tbf, I think it was Yuuna's MC who, after a girl tripping and falling onto him, somehow managed to get his head INSIDE her panties as a result of him trying to catch her. The WNL MC has yet to get such an achievement.

I liked the poster.

Yes, Miura drawed the characters from WNL.
Tsutsui drawn the characters from Yuragi-sou.

Each author drew the characters from the other series.
Was just about to say Furudate has been in a slump with colour pages recently after that cover and latest volume, but this is incredible!

Whenever I see Miura's protagonist, it's either when he ended up inside a girl panties or became a girl's panties himself.

Compared to that, Tsutsui's fanservice is just the usual list of pin-up scenes.

Darn that's one gorgeous spread. I always find Furudate's colouring really charming.

I guess many people relates to the otaku/fujoshi themes. Also it's quite fun seeing all the references to popular otaku culture in the manga.

Looks like Act-Age is going to directly fill the spot that Cross Account will be leaving just from the image provided and what I could find of their previous one-shot (but with the obvious hope of finding more success lol). Saw the one-shot for the other series, and it's not my cup of tea. However, I try to give new serializations the benefit of the doubt if not solely for the mangaka's sake. I can't tell for sure since my Japanese reading is near non-existent, but by the looks of it, they're prepping people for some of the upcoming one-shots... I think? lol Either way, I'm optimistic
