That ranking is definitely a joke: akaboshi isn't even rated next week. It's medaka that'll be rated. But yeah with hoop men gone it's possible some jojoing series will get faster in the basement than expected
Actually, Akaboshi is having their actual ranking next week. Although, I don't want to see Akaboshi falls down. :(

Actually, Medaka was ranked this week; next one is indeed Akaboshi's turn.

As for this TOC, it seems to me like an Akaboshi hater trying to scare its fans. Just that.

Re: Weekly Shounen Jump [2009] - Discussion & TOC Talk v.2

ah well if it'll be ranked next week then still: I think that this so called ToC is based on those lines in the box on the preview page (like finestela said) I thought so too it had a link with the ToC but it doesn't have one at all. I have posted this months before (with the question if it could have been confirmed but it wasn't after I saw the ToC). so no worries guys

Re: Weekly Shounen Jump [2009] - Discussion & TOC Talk v.2

Case in point:
This is the "next issue preview page" for 2009-31, in 2009-30

And, for those who at least knows the Japanese title of the series, compare the picture with the next issue preview list on the WSJ site:

http://shonenjump.com/e/weeklyshonenjump/next.html

And then compare it with the actual ToC for 2009-31, provided by Himajin:

TOC, by Himajin:



2009-31

Naruto (Cover + Lead CP)
Gintama
One Piece
Inumaru
Sket Dance
Lock On (One-shot, CP)
Mago
Akaboshi
Hetappi Manga Kengyuujo
Bleach (CP)
Medaka
Reborn
Beelze (CP)
Kochi Kame
Psyren
Kuroko
Bakuman
ToLoveRu
Hoop (Final)
Jaguar

The "order of next issue preview" is almost always being posted in 2ch... and there's a reason why I don't bring it here... It's pointless other than using it to know what's on WSJ next week, as well as the CP info, etc.

And the CP/hiatus info is already provided by Ko-neta anyway, so even less reason to do that.

I think preview from WSJ site are just showing which series going to be in next issue, with sorted randonmly, like Jaguar is not on the bottom. However, preview from 2ch is sorted actually formal order, like Jaguar and Tolove-Ru are on the bottom. Plus, order is actually sorted in pretty confidence enough to belive, like recently yo-yoing Gintama and Bakuman, One Piece and Naruto are always on top, Inumaru is on top 5 recently, Psyren recently moved back to lower middle or bottom, Reborn is also in middle place of late, Kuroko had been hanging around lower middle and bottom 5.

But, I also think the ranking is fake.

For the last time, no, it's not sorted randomly. It's sorted exactly according to the preview page in the magazine.

And the "ToC" you're referring to isn't a ToC, but rather what's written on the preview page in the 2009-31 WSJ magazine, regarding what is going to be in 2009-32. The Japanese text inside the quote, the "予告順", says it already.

予告 = Preview
順 = Order

How can you call something "fake" when it's not the thing you think it is?

So please, I believe I've explained it pretty clear. Stop making false assumptions over an established fact.

Re: Weekly Shounen Jump [2009] - Discussion & TOC Talk v.2

It's a godo idea to never have anyone put the "next issue" order, cause it just shows what's in the mag. It's been a while since I've looked at the "next issue" (mostly since I've sort of been on the out with weekly mags as of late) but it almost never goes into the real order, just "what will be in there". It's great to know when something is planned to be off (like Toriko last week), but not when something is sudden. (like OP is occasionally)

They just aren't listening to you. It's like banging your head against a brick wall

A new manga like "Hikaru no Go" in Weekly Jump would be interesting.

I'm glad that's not the TOC cause I refuse to believe Akaboshi can be that unpopular!!!

It's still not 100% Besides, Autumn is not that far off. It's only about 10 chapters or so. It would probably take at least that long for the story to come to an acceptable ending anyway. If it can hang on for about another year and gets enough material for an anime, then it will be safe. Until then, every cancellation period should be considered a countdown for the end.

I'm quite sure Bakuman, ToLOVE and maybe even Sket will all end naturally before Psyren can get cut. Besides, two of the newcomers look like they won't hold up for too long (nor does Kuroko, sadly :( ) so Psyren does have a pretty decent chance of surviving for a year.

Re: Weekly Shounen Jump [2009] - Discussion & TOC Talk v.2

I hope you are right. I mean, there has to be some point where a manga lasts long enough to be safe even if it scores low in the TOC. If the volume numbers start increasing then that will help too. Anyway, which two newcomers do you think will fail?

Better not be talking about Kawashita. Don't jinx her :p

If Kagajin is cliche action, it will fail. There's to much competition. If, like Toriko and Psyren, it has more to offer it has a chance. Jump seems to go easy on gag so I think the third series should last at least till November.

Sounds like wishful thinking. Why waste paper if the series is going to continually rank low and not be able to compensate for that in volume sales.
