Mag Talk Weekly Shounen Champion (2016 - 2021)

Well, she said she wanted to do a manga with humans. It's being published in a fairly unexpected place, that's for sure. Hopefully she does still continue to mainly focus on Beastars.

Issue 43 will be a Special Sato Takahiro Mourning Issue. I dont believe Sadogawa Jun received anything like this but his case was more sensible due to it being a suicide.

The Bachi Bachi feature that was planned before he died in this Sumo news magazine, became a sorta of tribute.

One-shot - Maid de Maid Maika-san (Sato Shoki)
End - Gyakushuu Inferno

Kaida-san says goodbye for now.

Shutsujin outlasts another one! It probably gets more leniency than the serious action/thriller series due to it being a comedy and all

Also, is Baki Gaiden - Scar Face an actual series, or is it like a collection of one-shots or a miniseries?

It is a series but Yamauchi Yukinao (Illustrator) for whatever reason cant handle regular serialisation, so it only gets a handful of chapters a year usually, this year it got quite a few more than usual.

Shutsujin outlasts it only one issue, it will end in Issue 42. It second volume is going on sale this friday (digital only though), Next new series round will probably come at around issue 45, chances are high that it will be 3 series.

It'll be weird not seeing Shutsujin and Inferno at the bottom of the TOC each week. I wonder which series will end up taking their places? I hope Rokudou and Iruma can stay at least in the middle of the TOC. I have a bad feeling Hachi may end up toward rock bottom

Gyakushuu Inferno 3th and 4th (final) volumes will be out only digital (no paper).
Shutsujin! Mushi Fushou Chosokabe 3th and 4th (final) volumes will be out only digital (no paper).

Now this issue has a pretty great TOC in my opinion, even if I wish Weekly Hachi was a bit higher. Maybe it'll take a bit of time for it to gather some steam like Iruma has. The real question will be if it'll have enough time to try to improve its sales and popularity. The newer chapters are definitely better than those that would've been inside the first volume

Thanks for all of that TOC work! This is great stuff.

Can anyone please tell me what is the current situation of Shuukan Shonen Hachi and Himawari?
Are they selling well?

Oh wow I’m cursed. I only just bought Taiyo volume one last week haha

Well at the very least, you still have many years worth of being able to purchase Weekly Shonen Sunday's Daiku volumes ahead of you!

I do! Making that wish on the monkey’s paw has its downsides, but at least it made Daiku immortal.

Using book-rank, which uses shoseki to gauge sales, shows that Himawari sales have been dropping slowly every volume, whilst Weekly Hachi volume 1 and 2 sold quite poorly. What I personally take from that is that they are not exactly in a good position. Hachi position is a lot worse than Himawari though, I see it ending soon.
That new series title for baki...
volume 3 will be Mound's last by the looks of it, at least it will get all volume released in print.
