How do they figure out if a one shot is popular? I doubt they resort to twitter/2ch responses so is there a feature in the digital app to track it?

Through the popularity poll I'd assume since the poll only asks the reader to list their 3 favorite chapters featured in the magazine that week.

I'm surprised they're usually region locked. Sweet thanks for the link.

out of all the sports anthropomorphic animals could play, why ping pong?

The author saw how successful Full Drive was and thought "I gotta get me some of that."

Plot twist

Spoiler

they’re not really animals. They’re actually a bunch of dedicated Furrys looking for a hobby to pass time

>how do i make this table tennis manga interesting after full drive's recent axe
>just make everyone a furry lul

 

[Mammo]

watching Megalo Box made wanna a manga about a made up sport that doesn't exist

if Keijo!!!!!!!! mangaka could get away with it, why couldn't someone else

they can go crazy with it, can make up rules as they go along, should be a lot of fun

 

[shoyoboyo]

Or a lot of asspulls

 

[Mammo]

meh, asspulls exist in 99% of manga with high stakes

it shouldn't be any more annoying/distracting in here than any other manga

 

[Tamil]

Made up sports don't always do well and it's not as easy as you make it out to be. RING flopped and yes iirc it made up rules along the way. I don't recall Keijo!!!!! doing even decent either.

I personally enjoy the sports series that get me interested in a sport that I'd never thought I'd ever be interested in. (boxing from Ippo & Sumo from HZ)

I think a rock climbing manga would be cool. Kokou no Hito is there but I wouldn't mind seeing one in WSJ.

 

[SharkBait]

GenderBend Keijo!!!!!!!! would actually be the next big thing.

 

[Halloween]

GenderBend Keijo!!!!!!!! would actually be the next big thing.

Not only would that not work, it doesn't even makes sense.

Its not like Keijo!!!!!!!! made sense.

 

[Tamil]

Just watch Free!...

GenderBend Keijo!!!!!!!! would actually be the next big thing.

I can see it, instead of boob and ass, we got moob, belly and ass,

The body type are of those of sumo wrestlers and world strongest competition instead of bodybuilder type(who will just flung away in secondss

Dont disgrace Sumo like that

 

[savethecat]

Over the top Skateboarding manga with rockets on the back of boards and villains that have machine guns emerge from their boards please

 

[shoyoboyo]

I've said it before and I'll say it again: break dancing manga.

Peace out Bozebeats. Out of the 3 new series I didn't like, you were at least the most bearable. Hopefully Act-Age will last a bit longer if Jujutsu and Ziga get axed instead. Also, that guy from the ping pong oneshot kind of looks like No.1 from Spring Weapon. What kind of animal is he even?
