New exorcist series you mean

 

[Mammo]

Why would anything be move to GIGA, nobody buys that magazine. They have to put the mainline author into that to promote it once in a while. Gintama is an exception, it sold 70+ million copies.

If it has to move, Jump SQ or Jump Plus is much better alternative.

because GIGA have a controlled lifespan, it's here for 3 issues then it goes to hiatus

moving to GIGA means "wrap your story up my dude"

 

[Franz]

But the declining sales means it has a very limited lifespan left.

I think it will end by the end of the year.

 

[101nemesis]

Don't think Soma should be moved. It'd be great if they wrapped it up properly in the main magazine itself. But again, if they are just trying to milk as much as possible before it gets cancelled, then well upto them.

 

[Mankichi Togawa]

I don't think Shokugeki is going to be moved. It is already rushing to its ending.

If something, Yuuna-san is the one I see moving.

PD: Meanwhile, Haikyuu will last until 2025

For like one instance (Gintama). Beside Gintama, what else from the main magazine "ends" on it? Quick search shows only Ichigo 100% sequel.

Did that Bomber-man clone (number whatever) manga get final chapter somewhere? (Jump Plus?)

 

[Mankichi Togawa]

Didn't Saiki also somehow end in GIGA?

Spring Weapon #1 ended in Jump

 

[Newkerzy]

They can just move either of those two to whichever magazine they please as long as to make space for new series.

But seriously, I haven't been up with Soma for months and just decided to read the latest chapter 'cause of the spoilers and I just cant bring myself to like how things are going. They are obviously bringing up all of these reveals just to to wrap up any possible plot thread left so there aren't loose ends

Honestly, the only thing that could "save" the series is revealing whoever the hell is the MC's mother. And I say that with complete sarcasm

I absolutely loved this one. It was obviously clear the mangaka had no idea what to do after the escape (also art was a bit uneven and characterization was subpar), but the main arc was really unique compared to majority of WSJ manga that came and are gone, kind of a nice mix of horror and mystery thriller.

Also remembering that Shueisha pushed this one hard, it had lots of CPs, and was even as close to get a cover early on but got LCP only instead.

Do you guys think this would be the Big 12 in terms of Jump action titles?

-Unfortunately Kinnikuman isn't big outside Japan. Heck, unironically Kenshiro would be the one in most danger of falling off if Black Clover suddenly skyrockets.
-Almost all of them are from +50 million print sales manga. Barring MHA, is surprising how Saint Seiya is by far the title with less sales (35 million sales is a small number comparing with the +60 numbers almost rest of these titles have)
-Yu-gi-oh has tons of action, but in a very different way.
-Tsuna and Toriko didn't get enough impact. Deku however, is causing that big impact both Tsuna and Toriko failed to create.

Toriko not so much, but Reborn for a while was a big piece of Jump.

 

[xAsum0x]

Its crazy how much respect and success MHA has garnered with Shueisha and WSJ given thats its only coming up to its 5th year anniversary in some months

 

[Tamil]

I would replace MHA with Shaman King. It was serialized in WSJ and only recently its not in Shueisha's hands. It had 50+ million in print prior to moving to Kodansha. City Hunter can be seen as action series too, if you're going to count yugioh.


Toriko couldve had impact if Shueisha didnt push it that hard . Reborn is big though but MHA clearly surpassed it.

 

[iceemperor]

Toriko couldve had impact if Shueisha didnt push it that hard .

I don’t see how too much pushing is the reason why Toriko didn’t take off as much as it might have been expected to. More pushing can never hurt a series’ growth. The anime could have been done better but Toriko got every chance to become huge. The fact that it didn’t become so big might mean that the content itself didn’t appeal to the mainstream as much as Jump and the producers wanted. I mean Toriko definitely made money and had good ratings but it didn’t have much staying power.

 

[TyVip]

Toriko would be 100 million sellers in the 80s-early 90s

 

[Caiops]

Oh my God, the plot twist in the last chapter of Souma...

Please EiC, finish this manga soon.

 

[Scruffy8642]

Speaking of people being upset I heard a lot of Yuragi fans being upset over the most recent development, I dont read the manga so I have no idea what happened, but is it possible for it to be ending soon?

People just upset their unrealistic ships sunk. They were easily some of the best chapters in the series.

For those who don’t read it, it was a potential epilogue of sorts that was able to be shown due to certain circumstances, but now they’re going back to the present again.

[Mankichi Togawa]

Dr.Stone continues being the only Jump title Shueisha never reveals the total number of print sales, despite being the most pushed manga of current lineup. Is a very strange situation.
