Psyren is really high. I think I said it before but psyren is the manga whose position is reflecting its selling rates. I already mentioned psyren's fanbase is growing. It has been in the middle of the ToC more than in the basement and it sometimes peeks close to the top. I do expect it a bit lower for the upcoming 2-3 chapters

Beelzebub is kinda normal. Beelzebub is the manga that gets appreciated by the chapter. Whereas most can maintain a position based on a general story/arc, beelzebub has a position based on a chapter's events

wow, Beelzebub is lower than normal.

Looks like Mago's facing the same problem as D.Gray-man. The plot based chapter are voted higher than the action ones. Well, considering that mago also has a substantial non WSJ buying public reading it. From what i've heard, manga fans who has a deep interest in real youkai legend and old style Japanese painting reads Mago.

Another cover for Naruto...

I really thought that Shueisha would respect Bakuman's anniversary and give its respective cover.

The rumors about the end of ToLove come out because the position of Ane Doki?! I don't know, it's not ranked yet, but looks like the Japanese enjoy this serie, as well as Kagijin seems to not be so sucessful.

And Wajimania is the failure of the year!

Re: Weekly Shounen Jump [2009] - Discussion & TOC Talk v.3

I don't think ToLove would end soon coz it has an irreplaceable position in WSJ n an invisible fanbase in the market.

well, I can be wrong lol

Re: Weekly Shounen Jump [2009] - Discussion & TOC Talk v.3

Well considering how low it's been for awhile and that Yabuki isn't having the same problems as before (let alone it's dwindling base of support), it isn't surprising if To-Love does finally go at this point. It had a nice run, though, so it's not like it's a bomb of collosal proportions. (though somehow I sort of wish Akaboshi would be below it...that seemed like an even bigger bomb)

I sort of wish Bakuman got a cover for it's anniversary...but it feels like business as usual. (at least aside from Toriko) for first years.

Beelzebub is low because the ranking is based on chapter 18. There isn't much interesting happen, but I think it will go up again on next week.

There are rumor that whether To Love-Ru is coming to an end. But, I'm not sure that the editors won't let this series, which have a solid fan base and still selling well. If it is going to end, I think either Medaka or Ane Dokii is going to replace it. I think ecchi/harem manga won't be last long in story wise, if it getting too long, people gets tired of the series. So, I think in order to do long run on ecchi/harem manga, I think the authors have mix with battle, too, in order to serialize long, like Negima.

Naruto is getting too much cover on 2009. I know that it is their 10th year of anniversary, but I think Naruto is getting too much cover. Does anyone knows that One Piece gets a lot of cover on their 10th anniversary or just Naruto is getting a lot?

Spoiler

ToC by Himajin @ 2ch



2009-39:

Bakuman (Lead CP)
Naurto (Cover)
One Piece
Reborn
Toriko
Inumaru
Bleach
One-Shot
Psyren
Sket Dance
Ane-Doki
Jaguar (CP)
Gintama
Kagijin
Beelze
Kochi Kame
Mago
Kuroko
Medaka Box
Wajimania
Akaboshi
ToLoveRu

Ugh, another Naruto cover. I can't wait for it to end already. Poor Bakuman.

I love this week's top 3. Toriko being in it always makes me happy. I'd be even happier if Bleach and Psyren swapped places. Sket has a good position as well.

Since this was the double chapter Ane-doki should be officially ranked now right?

Mago and Beelzebub are on the low side but they are fine.

I don't expect Kagijin to last but I guess we shall see.

Go back to the very bottom Kuroko and die.

Wajimania = colossal failure or Jaguar like exemption before chapter 8

Burn Kuroko!!! Stay in the bottom 5

Agree with you 100% Kaiten

Murmurs about ToLoveRu ending are getting louder now...

Currently the number of chapters is just enough for Vol. 18, the final volume that'd be released along with the OVADVD. Many are saying that, couple with what was written in Himajin's TLR spoiler, it could be ending in 8~10 chapters, just enough for Vol.19.

Take it with a bucket of salt though

Yeah, the last chapter felt like it could end up going that way. I wonder if they will end up ending it during this calender year. Although it could obviously still continue longer since it sells well enough.

I'm not sure Kuroko will die because I think Jump is already making a merchandise for Kuroko, like T-shirts and stop watches. If Kuroko going to end, the editors will not going to invest for Kuroko, that will be just wasting money.

 

[Drmke]

Re: Weekly Shounen Jump [2009] - Discussion & TOC Talk v.3

Damn you Naruto!! Give Bakuman's cover back!!

Reborn number 2.....

Psyren is moving up nicely. I hope this trend continues.

Well Wajima is the biggest failure I have seen since I have been following the ToC. Its kinda funny. And if To Love ends soon, I will probably laugh too.

Re: Weekly Shounen Jump [2009] - Discussion & TOC Talk v.3

There were too many rumors about To Love-Ru will be finish soon, but all of them have been false. So, I'm not sure whether this time will be true or not.

Bakuman didn't get a cover for their anniversary, then I'm also predicting that Beelzebub will not getting a cover on next week, too. I'm not going to surprise, if Naruto takes away Beelzebub's cover again.

 

[Kaiten]

Re: Weekly Shounen Jump [2009] - Discussion & TOC Talk v.3

Naruto probably won't swipe two straight covers. Probably.

What is Reborn doing back in the top 5? Not happy. Generally not happy with this TOC >.<

Re: Weekly Shounen Jump [2009] - Discussion & TOC Talk v.3

I found a rumor that Hunter X Hunter going to be axed on October. I'm not sure whether this rumor is true or not, if it is true, I think the editors finally an enough about Togashi's attitude.

I love this TOC <3

Re: Weekly Shounen Jump [2009] - Discussion & TOC Talk v.3

What's with the Reborn hate? This latest arc has been the best of the whole future saga, I mean the box animals are actually becoming weapons instead of acting like Pokémon. I still don't really like the direction they went with this saga but it has been getting better.

I like the Naruto cover, though it really should belong to Bakuman. I'd also like to see a Psyren or Sket Dance cover for once. Oh well, once the anime comes...

 

[kewl0210]

Re: Weekly Shounen Jump [2009] - Discussion & TOC Talk v.3

That thing about HXH is more than likely a lie, there's no reason for it to be dropped in October because it's not at a point where the series can end and if they waited 20 months for a hiatus to end, they probably don't mind Togashi's schedule at this point. It's more likely HXH is just gonna resume in October. That guy with an inside source Nn nexgear said he should "get an announcement soon".

As for the TOC, it's annoying that Naruto has the cover, but what can you do.
I dunno why Reborn is so high as the 2nd ranked. But maybe the fans like this part.
Toriko is back up to third, dunno why it keeps yoyoing down to lower ranks, besides the fact that there are so many unranked series'.
Psyren and Sket Dance being pretty high is good for them, the series seem to be good (though I don't read Sket).
Gintama, Kagijin and Beelzebub are lower, but I'd expect Gintama's rank to go up with its "popularity contest arc". Beelzebub is still fluctuating between stories in its opening arc, it would seem.
Mago and Kuroko are low for reasons they always are. There's STILL nobody Editing the last like 6 chaptes of Kuroko so I don't even know if it's still not too exciting or not....
And Wajimania and Akaboshi are gonna be canceled..

So they DID give Jaguar a middle-of-the-magazine thing for this week, woo... If only anyone was relatively near the current chapters...

Re: Weekly Shounen Jump [2009] - Discussion & TOC Talk v.3

Why is getting the cover a big deal? It's nice but I don't think it's that important.
