[mod=Halloween]Henceforth, I will be deleting posts that complain about Weekly Shonen Jump having too many/not enough gag/battle/exorcism/sports/etc series.

These posts are not insightful, and do not meaningfully contribute to this thread. Also, this decision is not up for discussion, so posts discussing this decision will also be deleted.[/mod]

Will someone ever take down this monster called Kimetsu no yaiba ?

It depends, with the sales that will make in December and the continuous recovery will be first also next year for sure,

Then later, who knows ....

I’m still betting that Shueisha’s gonna release a full colored edition, or deluxe editions of Demon Slayer while the iron is still hot

Yeah. Maybe around the time when the next movie comes out.
I'm betting on another movie than another season of anime.

I don't think so, it takes too long for a movie.

It doesn't realistically make any sense to release full color, kanzenban etc. while the backlog is still smashing the charts. All it'd accomplish is lose double dipping potential.

 

[101nemesis]

I don't think so, it takes too long for a movie.

Sure but look at the money they got. Even if the 2nd one doesn't make the same amount, it'll still make a stupid amount of money.
But I guess we'll see.

What is there to say that hasn’t already been said.

Was NOT expecting JJK to break Top 5. God, this manga’s gonna be a very strong contender in the publishing 2021 year. Wonder if it’ll outsell One Piece.

HeroAca is 8th, which was the lowest I expected, but it still sold 6,000,000. Holy fuck. Do we have a Top 20? I’d love to see the results of that.

With Agravity Boys hitting its first anniversary in a couple issues, do you think the creator himself is surprised at managing to last a full year in the brutal WSJ, despite the series never leaving the bottom and frequently even hitting dead last? I can't imagine it being a good feeling for a creator to see their new series at the very bottom.

The series having a big excited celebration for finally getting a colour page a few weeks ago makes me wonder if that's maybe how the mangaka feels about the series survival in general, happily surprised that he can keep going for so long.

He will probably take Haikyuu's place

Biggest shock to me this week is that Mr.Sakamoto is only 27.

I never exactly thought he was OLD. My guess was anywhere between Mid 30s and early 40s though

 

[Lil meen]

Well based on the top 10 sales, we can agree that A. Shueisha pockets are filled B. The manga industry is not dead C. KNY will probably hv 2021 also.

 

[Franz]

. KNY will probably hv 2021 also.

Certainly


Only next month's sales will be enough.

Well based on the top 10 sales, we can agree that A. Shueisha pockets are filled B. The manga industry is not dead C. KNY will probably hv 2021 also.

It's final volume comes out next month. So that's at least 5M there. So it'll probably make the top 5 if not higher.
