WNL going for another volume's worth of chapters kinda surprises me, but I getting an epilogue is nice, even if I feel that an extra 10-11 chapters is probably a little more than necessary. I was convinced it was ending first, but now I wonder what will end first out of WNL, TPN, KnY, and Yuuna. They all seem so close to the end.

It's either WNL or kny.

You know how draggy they can make TPN with a couple of "I dont really care"...

and yuuna is just an episodic ecchi with a "plot". The author can go forever as long it sells

WNL I'm still not convinced this is the end, it could still do proper arcs for all the girls, though I'll need to see the next chapter first.

It's probably not ending next chapter as there doesn't seem to be an announcement that would indicate that, but I wouldn't be surprised if that just means they're putting an extra chapter or two in the final volume.

Then again, a quick check to refresh my memory shows that Hinomaru doesn't seem to have had any announcements in chapter 249 other than a color page for 250, and it ended with chapter 250. So WNL might be ending next chapter after all.

As for continuing beyond that, there's really not much to do. The two main premises of the series of love and studying have been effectively been resolved. All that's really left to do is an epilogue to wrap up loose ends.

Chainsaw Man and Nakano are brothers, bet. There is no way they allow him to put mad CPs and mad Volume Cover like that in my Christian Magazine

WSJ was never a christian magazone, one of their first series was an ecchi after all.

I'm kinda meh on the cover in general. Fujimoto's artstyle is best for crazy action shit, not fanservice. Though Tadahiro Miura's artstyle may have spoiled my taste for other Jump fanserivce stuff, so there's that.

 

[AbrahamOmosun]

I believe you are talking about Harenchi Gakuen by Go Nagai

According to the Wikipedia page, it changed the standards of what was allowed in manga, so when you are enjoying Chainsawman's colour page, you know who to thank

 

[Tamil]

Haikyuu got the best cover from Jump & Jigokuraku got the best cover for Jump+ for March. Not feeling the CSM cover tbh

Yes I was. It was the granddaddy of all Ecchi.

Haikyuu got the best cover from Jump & Jigokuraku got the best cover for Jump+ for March. Not feeling the CSM cover tbh

Jigokuraku got the best cover out of this whole volume batch period.

THIS IS THE RIDE WHICH NEVER ENDS

...in a year?! Since the year started?! Or is this lifetime sales?

 

[pamuchi]

...in a year?! Since the year started?! Or is this lifetime sales?

I think it's lifetime sales, since the year started has 25M+

Hey and who's the other 4? OP, Snk??

--- Double Post Merged, Feb 27, 2020, Original Post Date: Feb 27, 2020 ---

Hey and who's the other 4? OP, Snk??

1. ONE PIECE
2. Attack on Titan
3/4: NARUTO/Kingdom
5. Kimetsu no Yaiba

HQ is most likely at #6 just around 40m

 

[101nemesis]

1. One Piece
2. Attack on Titan
3. Kingdom
4. Either Naruto or Haikyu!!
5. Kimetsu no Yaiba

Does HQ have 40 million in circulation?

 

[TxxT]

Does HQ have 40 million in circulation?

Oricon doesnt go by WSJ circulation numbers, and I fixed it, the missing series is Naruto at 42m
HQ known Oricon numbers - over 39m, might cross 40m in March, and should be in the top 5 by the end of the year

 

[101nemesis]

Okay, I'm curious now;
Which are the top 10 highest selling series from WSJ since the start of Oricon?

 

[Rain Spectre]

Okay, I'm curious now;

Kimetsu, Haikyu, MHA, TPN, AssClass, Kuroko, Shokugeki, Nisekoi and I think Black Clover.

 

[101nemesis]

Kimetsu, Haikyu, MHA, TPN, AssClass, Kuroko, Shokugeki, Nisekoi and I think Black Clover.

Oricon data started coming in from 2008 I believe. So, Toriko would be on the list above SNS and others.

I was more curious among all the ongoing series from the start of Oricon. So OP, Naruto, Bleach, Reborn(maybe), Gintama would need to be included as well.

 

[TxxT]

Okay, I'm curious now;
Which are the top 10 highest selling series from WSJ since the start of Oricon?

With known numbers

1. ONE PIECE - 200m+
2. NARUTO - 46m
3. Kimetsu no Yaiba - 40.3m
4. Haikyu!! - 39m
5. BLEACH - 33m+
6. Gintama - 28m+
7. My Hero Academia - 26m+
8. Kuroko no Basket - 25m+
9. Assassination Classroom - 24.7m
10. The Promised Neverland - 15m

Attack on Titan and Kingdom aren't Jump.
