187. Red Hood #1 (4,331)
197. High School Family #4 (4,076)
292. Neru #1 (3,080)

Considering how messy Red Hood was for most part and the rankings, 4k in 4 days isn't that bad, at least shows Kawaguchi has potential.

Also Yozakura still holding while UU and Ayakashi already dropped:

417. Mission: Yozakura Family #10 (2,173 / 44,701)

Jump #49:

Great:
Blue Box - Lovely Chinatsu POV chapter and now she takes the initiative
Dr. Stone - Chrome the MVP strikes again
Sakamoto Days - Nagumo's flexing is so satisfying
One Piece - That was so epic! Really hype-up for the next chapters.
Jujutsu Kaisen - Higuruma got such a cool domain. The choreography is on spot as usual.

Good:
Witch Watch - Such an entertaining and refreshing chapter. It has a nice Christopher Nolan reference too.
Neru - Great interaction with his mom. Such a pity that next week is the end...
The Elusive Samurai - Pretty neat strategy battle. Our MC enjoys the elusiveness.

Fine:
PPPPPP - Nice build-up for the final clash with Reijiro. One P is gonna be removed
Red Hood - Well, it is what it is. Definitely deserved the axe, but this was a fine wrapping of the story. Let's hope that Kawaguchi-san will learn from his mistakes and make his next work a hit.

[KagamiKuroko]

Jesus Christ those boundaries are super low and going by the last couple weeks,probably higher than what oricon will give

Live action series has been announced for yu yu hakusho for December 2023

The series was announced last year.


And don't people here remember that image from the live-action series came out months ago?

 

[KagamiKuroko]

Just a small issue in the way Pietro phrased it. Obviously the release date is the new part.

Witch Watch #3 at 52th and Sakamoto Days #4 at 54th but WW ended up on Oricon with 17k in 3 days, is good to remember that Tokyo Revengers backlog wasnt weaker like now and based in the Shoseki cut in the 30th, seem like is going to be around the same at least for WW.

So any predictions for PPPPPP placement on issue #50? I will go a bit wild and predict in the middle with a color page on #51

 

[James Rye]

Last place probably.

I think 8th-9th place

 

[tirakai]

I think PPPPPP will drop to the very bottom over the next couple issues but then might climb up out of it afterwards like early Act-age.

We'll have another period with an interesting bottom 3 starting next week since almost everything remaining goes up and down at least a bit. Unless PPPPPP is a total flop and ends up perma-last, I'm guessing the default bottom for the next couple months will usually be Ayakashi Triangle, Witch Watch, and a different 3rd last every issue going by recent trends (though I'm sure those two will also jump up out the bottom a couple times too).

Color page for explosive popularity. Its really good. Ranking close to the front of the magazine.

IMO its everything Act Age ought to have been and more.

 

[KagamiKuroko]

 

[SharkBait]

Usopp got a significant upgrade from Oda's design. hot.

wouldnt have used THAT picture of Mackenyu

 

[KagamiKuroko]

So no Chopper?

 

[SharkBait]

the wanted poster for zolo is hot, good choice.

confidence rising for one piece

if it is a success I pray Naruto finally gets one as well and BLack Clover eventually.

 

[Minsel]

So no Chopper?

It's just East Blue I believe

 

[Manjiknights]

PPPPPP already has the page extension curse that has not failed us a single time since after Mashle lol they’re gonna pretend to promote it because that’s what they do with every eventually axed series in the magazine but it’s already underperforming. It will probably start middle of ToC with its first rank and go down over the next two or so issues. We’ve seen this so many times now it shouldn’t be surprising
