You will get an esport manga about a high school student filled with shitty romance and bad humor and you will like it.

 

[Belkac3m]

WSJ need a baseball manga.

So Komi will get serialized

I wonder how an esports manga would even work, I don't remember seeing any before. I've read a manga about overclocking of all things but no esports yet.

Yugioh's probably the closest thing Jump's had to one that I can think of.

i was sure we just had a recent one shot that was about e sports.

Yes it was from nisekoi writer - the origin of e

 

[Chuck_Atlas]

I want either a surfing or a paintball manga

 

[SharkBait]

I want either a surfing or a paintball manga

Paintball is already done in Aoharu x Machinegun

 

[Scruffy8642]

I usually wonder if everyone is legitimately in to the suggested sports or if they’re just asking for random sports lol.

Personally I don’t watch sports, so I just take whatever is given.

I find it doesn’t matter personally. If its well written, it’ll be enjoyable regardless of the sport. Most of the sports in some of my favourite series I don’t even like irl, and vice versa.

Paintball is already done in Aoharu x Machinegun

And baseball is already done in Ace of Diamond & soccer is done in Days and Be Blues, yet you still want those to get series in Jump

Also Aoharu x Machinegun didnt did paintball, it did Airsoft; Both are shooting sports but still different

 

[Caiops]

I want a WSJ manga just like Red Dead Redemption 2..

A redemption story about cowboys.

I mean as far as requesting a sport.

I love sports manga personally(I just don’t watch real life sports), but say something obscure, like idk, badmitten. You don’t see too many hardcore badmitten fans, so when someone says “I hope the next sports series is a badmittien series”, I always wonder if they’re legitimately a badmitten fan.

 

[ThunderStorm]

I want a handball manga as well. Other options for WSJ: about Vikings and MMA (winks at Kawada)

 

[Mankichi Togawa]

-Handball spokon
-Galaxy Gangs serialization
-Fantasy/adventure manga in Roman world setting
-E-sports manga

This is my wishlist.

 

[Heiji]

Act-age : 4 volumes : 400 000.

As a proud Indonesian, I can definitely say that I am a fan of the sport. After all, badminton to us is what soccer is to Brazil.

 

[tirakai]

Badminton's hardly an obscure sport, it might not be taken too seriously but it's a sport a lot of people play for fun.

 

[Halloween]

We need a hot blooded arm wrestling manga.

I asked for a kendo manga, but i don't follow the sport. I just think is interesting enough and can be a good concept for a manga. A Jousting manga would be cool too.

 

[James Rye]

I want to see someone make up a fictional sport

Me too. Either make up a fictional sport, kinda like in World Trigger with the Trion Buddies fighting in a Simulator (which is cool and would be pretty popular if give world-wide TV because "Gladiators are always popular") or make a manga about an already existing fictional sport like Blood Bowl. Man, Blood Bowl Manga would be great, it got violence, tactics, different attributes and skills, politics, bribes, death and injuries, dreams and hopes, crushing defeats, glorious victories, bloody battles, wizards and gods tempering with the game, chainsaws, what's not to love there? XD

Act-age : 4 volumes : 400 000.

This is so amazing! I'm pumped that Act-Age is not only just surviving, but that it's actually showing an astonishing level of growth. Out of curiosity's sake, did we ever get the total print numbers for Samon or Sesuji (the rest of the former 30k Club)?
