So I was watching this video about someone trying to marathon 100% complete the Super Smash Bros games, and I remembered Jump Force and a game before that called J Star Victories, is that correct? And if there would be a new Jump game, would people want it in the same vein as Smash Bros but more like Ultimate and some extra games?

While we're on the topic of Sakamoto, all of its backlog is on Shoseki for 1/1 and 1/2 with no anime. Of course, holidays mean that backlog generally does well, but it's one of the only ones to get all its backlog on with no anime. My hopes are still there for a good boost.

That’s quite good
I’m just afraid Netflix might drop all episodes in one go, which will absolutely kill the boost momentum

No they won’t. They made sure of that. Also, with some good news, Blue Box is getting good promotion from Netflix now, so that’s good.

Damn, Ichi debuted at 6th place. With only DanDaDan, Sakamoto, Jujutsu, and Kinnikuman in front of it. The era of Ichi and an onslaught of imitation Witch manga is about to begin.

To put in perspective, Ichi is below Kinnikuman, which -correct me on this- sells around 60-70K. It's above Witch Watch, Girl Meets Rock, and Kindergarten WARS, so it can debut anywhere from 40-70K (unless it's really stock-locked). Shinobi is probably going to debut in the 10-15K range, which is passable, shouldn't be a MamaYuyu situation considering the ranks.
Sakamoto is 3rd, Jujutsu is 4th and 5th.
No he's right.

Oh, and Sakamoto backlog is doing really well today. Better than Blue Box I believe. Volume 1 is in the 60s.

Yes. Smash Bros. Bring back the Jump Ultimate Stars gameplay.
Just modify the koma system so you have a smaller deck, and you trigger the panels through button presses rather than touch screen.
I would absolutely lose my mind if the series got revived. Easily the best Jump based video game.

Sakamoto spinoff debuted at 28, seems people like it. Sakamoto backlog is almost entirely above Blue Box which is a little sad for me but also to be expected.

Fantastic first day for Ichi, now we can assume we have a new hit, Shinobi is selling decently for a new series (it will surpass Himaten in the next days imo)

Wouldn't say that quite yet. Impressive debut no doubt, but it's right there between a 40k and a 70k seller so realistically that would be the absolute most it could hope to achieve. And even then, that doesn't take into account any potential for frontloading and how it manages throughout the month - not to mention the first print which could ultimately keep the volume from hitting its maximum potential. 40k would still put it a whole head and shoulder above most of the magazine though, so even if it just maintains that then it's doing extremely well. It'll be fun seeing how that holds up in the long term.

Great start for Ichi, might be a frontloaded 1st day, we will see tomorrow, but definitely a great start, nice to see Amazon was underestimating it, Shinobigoto too, it started way better than i thought it would, it's funny how it started nearly the same placement Kiyoshi did, and if we compare with how Kill Blue still considerably above Hima-Ten and last Roboco vol did 16k and Hima 15k, if Shinobi can do a nice performance like Kiyoshi did so it will probably sell between 10k ~ 15k within the month, which is a solid start.

They've gotta have a lot of confidence, then, that the anime is going to do decently well.
When the whole series is charting like this a week before broadcast, they probably have their reasons :grin

Not even this beautiful chapter of Yozakura could make it rank in the top 10, i find very strange considering how the series did actually chart in the trend topics of Japan a couple of times but somehow the manga chapters never managed to enter in these rankings lol

nd people love the 2000's era vibes too. Interesting that the mainstream is positive while the niche mangahrlprrs thread is negative.

Will be an interesting divide at the end of the season to see where it stands
Many JP comments are also negative in the forums.

Looks like Ichi the Witch is going to survive; I should pick it up again and not let my personal issue with Iruma-kun stop me from reading it.
As if wasn't pretty obvious already :grin

Murakami bros…
Surprised it even ranked above the 200th line

To put in perspective, Ichi is below Kinnikuman, which -correct me on this- sells around 60-70K. It's above Witch Watch, Girl Meets Rock, and Kindergarten WARS, so it can debut anywhere from 40-70K (unless it's really stock-locked). Shinobi is probably going to debut in the 10-15K range, which is passable, shouldn't be a MamaYuyu situation considering the ranks.
Sells 60k-ish in a month, at least last volume.

lol 5ch trash talking and trolling Kagurabachi because of Sakamoto backlog, the true rivalry in Japan seems to be Sakamoto VS Kagurabachi, not Nue :grin

Welp, looks like Ichi's a success, as many of us thought. 2024 wasn't such an awful year for new releases after all.

As for Shinobi, I would have said it was pretty dead a while back, but with Kiyoshi living off of >13k it will probably get some more time imo. Rip Murakami, we barely knew ye.
