Moderator Notice:
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.~ Halloween

I don't think JUMP PLUS should be discussed here. It's its own platform. Also it's number of series is increasing and prolific. It deserves its own there and own place.

Feel like this is only thing because Kaiju hardcores just want an excuse to hype up Kaiju whenever they can.

It was never an issue about the other series.

 

[tirakai]

My thought is that posting news regarding Jump+ should be fine here, but ongoing discussions should be in the Jump+ topic.

So for example sales, reveals of new series, stuff being popular in Japan, anime announcements, etc would be posted here then if you want to talk about it more and react to the news you go to the Jump+ topic.

Eh, SxF received far, far more hype, though.

 

[Thundercat27]

I think maybe only jump+ series that got mangaplus treatment could be discussed here (up to 3 chapters etc etc).
Also, if we could not discuss them anymore, may as well remove them (and jump sq series, sry world trigger fans) from the weekly poll and make it pure wsj again.

 

[Gilroygladbouy]

I know we are discussing about the whole Jump+ dilemma right now but a question I would like to ask is what is everyone’s favorite group in a shonen manga? (Ex: Akatsuki, Straw Hats, Phantom Troupe, Espada, etc.)

I'm probably going to get crucified for this answer, but honestly, Black Clover's Black Bulls.

With most groups in Shonen, there's always a few members that I don't like. With the Black Bulls, there's only really one that I don't like/don't care for. The others are charming/funny/badass/etc.

Phantom Troupe, Straw Hats, Yozakura Family :P, the Paranormal Liberation Front

Vongola Family, Black Bulls, and Phantom Troupe are probably my favorites.

Should we talk about what kind of gag manga jump is getting next?

 

[OniluapL]

The Supernovas in One Piece are amazing. I'm constantly in awe of how Oda basically pulled a group of characters out of his ass and made almost all of them such great and fun characters. The Genei Ryodan in Hunter x Hunte also deserves a mention, I love how they interact.

(technically my answer is the Sket-Dan, but they are just the three main characters, sounds a little unfair. They may all be my favorite characters in Jump, though)

BakuSquad (heroaca)

Aside from what was mentioned (Supernovas/PT), Team Bucciarati is up there as well for me

Okay, so, this is how this will go down.

If you wish to discuss Shaman King's influence on WSJ, or it's sales/ToC positions from when it was a WSJ series, that is allowed. New information or new sales figures from after it's time in WSJ is off-topic.

You are allowed to discuss mangaplus series in here, except for Jump SQ mangaplus titles. Series' discussion and analytics from Jump+ that are not on mangaplus are to be posted in the Jump+ thread. (The title of this topic must remain the same for search engine optimization reasons, which is why it was edited back. Changing it would mess with site traffic.)

Do remember that mangaplus series discussion is still subject to the new topicality rule, so plot discussion for anything over three volumes is off-topic.~ Halloween

Yorozuya forever , like others said aswell, the Supernovas. The Shichibukai too.

No group has ever been as influential to me as the Gold Saints.

 

[Lord fifth]

Mine are the yonku(do they count?).
Hell I like big mom(as a villian) and I don't get the hate(in the manga).

 

[ChrissyR5]

 

[Shokkii]

I love everything about the Kiseki no Sedai from Kuroko no Basket.

But in general tournament arcs and cool villain groups are the biggest reasons I enjoy those type of manga. I have to say though Akatsuki was something else in the 2000s. There was just such a big hype and mystery about their silhouettes alone. People were making so many theories up (stuff like Naruto's father being a part of them) and Fan arts about the unrevealed members. Also, the Espadas and the Gotei 13 are like 80% of why I love Bleach and are one of the biggest reasons why I keep rereading and rewatching Bleach.

 

[MysticCatto]

My picks would be Blackbeard pirates, Shohoku basketball team and the ishiyama high 4 kings from beelzebub (i forgot what they were collectively referred as but they were badass)

The Golden Saints from Saint Seiya followed by the League of Villains from My Hero Academia, and the Japan U-20 national team from Captain Tsubasa for me.
