Wait, what? This ended??? Why? It was good, it was solid, it was enjoyable and it got a similar story-set-up like White Knight, why did it fail? Curse you, Time Paradox Ghostwriter! You lied to me! D:

The chapter published today was the final one, apparently. Given that there was no warning and the story is clearly unfinished, I can only assume it was cancelled suddenly.

It's really too bad, because last week's chapter made it look like they were actually getting somewhere solving the mystery.

You know, hogging all the first 19 spots is pretty ridiculous, but the actual ultimate Kimetsu dab here is Volume 20 AND the special edition being both in the top 25 with ONE goddamn week. Or is it two? Well, the point stands regardless.

 

[101nemesis]

I mean, in theory this would be possible, but I really doubt this will happen considering the final arc was rushed a lot, especially the last chapter. It just feels as if they want to end the manga as fast as possible.

Same reason why Bleach felt rushed towards the last few chapters.
Poor planning from the mangaka's side after agreeing to end the series by a deadline.

It's why Gintama kept getting extended because despite WSJ announcements, Sorachi realized he wanted to do more and made them backtrack.

OMFG.
SxF 3 sold 670k?? It's literally neck and neck with TPN and MHA.
You CANNOT ask for a better start than this for a series by Volume 3.

Holy Cow.

 

[TyVip]

Volume 1 and 2 should be upward of 750k+. In theory the audiences would check out Jump+ for the bimonthly chapter, and at least some double dips on other series. But so far other Jump+ series still have the same number

[James Rye]

Apparently the editor of Angyaman (the mangaka for just ended J+/MangaPlus series East, Into the Night) told him he is crap/shit?? Hopefully someone with better knowledge of Japanese helps out here, but ouch if true.

He's actually saying that, because of him, his editor got called crap/shit (probably by his superiors)

Neither are nice stuff to hear.
Damn, I really liked this and was looking forward to see what Anag's purpose as Cyborg with the dream of tomorrow was. what the background story of Tiyo is given she was found as a child with a relic weapon in her hands and the ruins AI responded to her, the whole Fire Cult using and searching actively for Relics while branding anyone else doing so as heretics and devils (like what is their real goal? Just power can't be, they can do that without relics due faith of the population), the two survivors who want to use relics and ruins to bring down the Fire Cult, little Pert also being someone the AIs of old respond to despite being a child of the highest member of the Fire Cult, where those dark clouds came from that keep the sun out and so on. Like there is so much you could have done with this world cast in darkness, people living in cities and settlements not only closed in by walls but also their own narrow-mindedness and maaaaaaaaaaaaaan, Anag and Tiyo were such a good hero duo, I am really sad I only got to see 12 chapters with those two, the mangaka managed to make me care about those two more in the first chapter than most of the WSJ newbie series did with their first chapter. Both having a mysterious background, both being fighters with Anag being more of a Scholar and Tiyo more of a Hunter type, one a human, one a Cyborg, both looking for the "tomorrow".
Man, such a shame, I guess going sole digital ain't just cutting it nowadays...

 

[Shinuki no Reborn]

Watch Shibata outsell most of the newbies that survived on Jump with his Dai no Daibouken spinoff, Shibata going to win the war despite losing the battle kkkkk.

Btw, DQ anime looks really good, Toei is doing a great job so far and it will be great to watch every week for the few next years.

It's just the fact that we have SxF already contesting MHA and TPN in just its 3rd volume.
KNY can go away now. I want more attention on SxF and want to see what peak it can hit.

What are the chances of kimetsu no yaiba beating one piece in a second consecutive year?

It did. It beat OP last year and now again this year.

Happy to see Hanako-kun and and SxF cracking the top 10. Hanako especially deserves the boost.

spy could sneak up to end of the year top 10, go go go

Here's to hoping for Hanako-kun as well.

He's actually saying that, because of him, his editor got called crap/shit (probably by his superiors)

Perhaps Time Paradox duo were really taking anecdotal inspiration for editor-san’s attitude in the first chapter after all.

When I read that story, that's immediately what came to mind.

Although, in this case, it's not the editor that's being the asshole, it's his peers/superiors.

Hanako-kun is able to reach the top 10 despite no individual volumes in the top 50. The anime boost is incredible!

 

[Shinuki no Reborn]

Hanako-kun only had two volumes released in the last 6 months and both sold like 70k in the top 50, which goes like 140k, less than a Black Clover volume and still got 2 million at total, the power of backlog kkkk.

Just to clarify, 150k per volume, right?

volumes leak tonight right?
