In each issue, a newsletter allows the reader to return a ranking against which he will receive a small thank you gift. The public vote decides whether to continue or kill the series, but would also influence the order and drastic organisation of the series within the magazine.

"It's a legend," contests Hiroyuki Nakano, the current editor-in-chief of Weekly Shonen Jump, before going on to qualify it for Le Monde: "Indeed, successful series tend to be placed at the head of magazines, but it's in fact only to clearly separate the series according to their genre. In creating the magazine, the assistant editors take great care every week to ensure that two identical types do not follow each other. »

With the imminent ending of Gintama, One Piece will be the only Jump manga with more than 400 chapters...

 

[Mankichi Togawa]

*Checking*
-HiatusxHiatus: chapter 380
-Haikyuu: chapter 315
-Shokugeki: chapter 276
-World Trigger (RIP): chapter 164
-Hinomaru: chapter 205
-Hero Academia: chapter 194
-Black Clover: chapter 170

Wha, the gap between Haikyuu and Shokugeki is bigger than I thought.

-World Trigger (RIP): chapter 164

It...It will return for sure! For sure!!! Someday for sure...

Also if you call HunterxHunter HiatusxHiatus you should World Trigger call World Hiatus given it broke HunterxHunter's record. xD
Has WT broken the 100 Issue Hiatus yet?

My book is already on way home. Most expensive part for me has been the shipping, that can be painful.

It will be interesting to see how while in Volume 1 everybody was influenced by Otoko Ippiki, in Volume 3 everybody is going to be influenced by Dragon Ball

Didn't had the time to read the 3rd catalog yet, but I am really disappointing that they decided not to interview nor much of showcase of the design and unique way of displaying Jump 00' manga. The 1st and 2nd catalog really did a good job interviewing the planners and designers to see their look at the process and how it was made to the exhibition.

Did they skip that last interview they did in volumes 1 and 2? Urgh. I'll guess they did it because they did a lot of interviews in that part (I say even Hikaru no Go author had an interview there), but they should just have added these last two pages. Even more when volume 3 is the one with the most thematic rooms.

Still trying to understand why Katsura (Video Girl Ai, I''s), NuBe author, Cobra author, Sakigake author, Dragon Quest Dai authors, or Hoshin Engi author didn't get an interview and Sexy Commando author got one, though.

It...It will return for sure! For sure!!! Someday for sure...

I think is at almost 90 already.

Sounds like Nakano is talking bullshit again, considering that just last week's ToC placed the 3 battle shonen One Piece, Jujutsu and Hero Academia next to each other and the ecchi/harem manga Yuragi followed directly after the same ecchi/harem manga Souma.

forgot about MHA movie boost, was going to say it will eclipses last year sales, but having a volume delayed to December won't help it.

Oh damn, I was looking forward for that cover in particular. Any idea why the delay?

 

[Franz]

Where are the Shokugeki sales ?

 

[redon]

Seems like the Vol. 3 official catalog is out on ebay https://m.ebay.com/itm/Weekly-Shone...535184?hash=item4680cb9090:g:hrYAAOSwqNJbcSSz and other various sites.

It's out for a few days. I got mine last week.

[Mankichi Togawa]

Where are the Shokugeki sales ?

I recall seeing Shokugeki sales dropped from 4 million yearly sales to 2 million ones, and now not only Hero Academia, Black Clover is also starting to beat Shokugeki.

According to Heiji site, 15 million (Hero Academia is now in 17 million and skyrocketing to the 20k).

 

[Franz]

I mean, the Shoseki sales.

Possibly because of the multiple shorter chapters, adding the few breaks Horikoshi taken recent(ish), maybe they are just building some buffer.

 

[Franz]

I don't think that is the problem..

hopefully he does like furudate and adds pages and panels.

 

[Mankichi Togawa]

Regarding yesterday talk when some of you said you saw Hero Academia doing all 3 years.

Only 1st year: +200 chapters. Other two years will have less chapters for sure, but ey, 600 chapters. Would be nice in a way.

Still, didn't Horikoshi say the manga reached the 50% or something?

PD: Hopefully Furudate and Tabata will tell us one day the % of Haikyuu and Black Clover manga, like Hori, Oda, and Promised Neverland author did.

Wasn't this the catalog that held all the interviews?

 

[OtterBrigade]

So Gonzo is not only doing Zumo this fall but also Conception. It seems to have been quite some time since they've done two shows at once so that's a bit worrying. Neither have actual animated previews yet BTW (well Conception has one with minimal animation but nothing much shown)
