people would rather cheer for the cancellation of the manga than see him survive, it happened a lot this year.
Well, considering there's a limited amount of series in the magazine and one cancellation might mean the survival of a series you like better, it makes sense to me. Obviously I would prefer it if I enjoyed every series and every series could last as long as it needed, but that's not how it works. If, for instance, they have to choose between Yozakura or Mitama (which sounds like a likely choice for the editors to make), I would hope for Yozakura to go away. Not because I hate the series or anything.

That being said, I would agree that sometimes the tone tends to be a little... vitriolic, and that's unneeded.

Damn, the cover is beautiful. The poses are dynamic and full of energy. Can't wait for the close-up of each characters.

Because it's not hard to predict if certain series would be hard or easy to pull it off as a serialization, the fact that the guy didn't go for that concept when he is in the second serialization, should tell enough that he and his editor weren't able to find a way.
I'd put the blame more on lack of creativity/talent than the concept not being able to work as a serialization.

I guess this cover implies black cover and miitama are the "top" manga in the magazine.

Yozakura being below Samurai 8 is quickly causing me to lose what little faith I had left in the opinions of the Japanese readers.
So Japanese readers are the one who decide the order of character on the cover, not the board of editors huh.

Of course that in the end of the day is more about the author being able to work, but there are many themes and concepts that are simply harder to pull it off in a magazine like Shonen Jump, and giving another look at the one shot, it would probably even go to a similar route of Yozakura being a comedy series about the doctor treating different creatures without any big plot for a while

I find it amusing that we now have successful runner-ups from the GFC (Tabata, Goutoge, Akutami) than we do successful winners (Tamura, Shiibashi).
Iirc, act-age oneshot was also a runner up, wasn't it?

Look more closely at Tsuisui Jump Heroin, Nami looks so weird, I first thought she was Erina. Also kind of funny the buff dude from agravity boys to be featured in.

I was literally talking about the table of contents, but I guess it does correspond to their placement on the cover, which I never realized. No need to be a smartass, though.

It's still quite condescending and snobbish to criticise the people who make, mainly consume and give the foundation for your favorite form of media to reach you.

I hope this is jump related, Gotouge (KnY author) drew Saber and Rin for fate 15th anniversary

Damn watermark, but I didn't expect Gotouge's style to work with Saber well.

Sigh, yet another bad placement for Yozakura. I'll still hold out for good volume 1 sales but at this point it's starting to look less and less likely.

Is the cover confirmed to be just One Piece or could it be another group one with One Piece LCP? Normally the doubles have 2 group covers iirc.

Well everyone pretty much agrees that Yozakura had a pretty promising start, but then slowly started to feel like there’s no clear direction or goal in the series, causing everyone to lose interest in it.
So it makes a lot of sense that it wouldn’t be doing too hot now

Wait, Tsutsui really drew Babazragi instead of Chris? That's a big disappointment.
