Lmao Meian Edition in France does some pretty good series. With them Jormungand will finally be licensed here. Great to know someone actually does official releases for Kingdom too.
ToC coming in a few minutes as soon as all the pages for the magazine in my app finish loading.
I have to say the first cha[ter for Shapeshifter was meh but the second chapter was incredible. Gonna follow this series for at least a volume to see how the story progresses.

Nice color page for Snack Basue. Pretty respectable sales for Kawaisounine when compared to all of the other new WYJ series from the last basically 2 years. I wish Maku Musubi would've ended up higher after if first chapter went fairly viral on Twitter, but hopefully its next volume will do better.

So thus far this year, 9 new series have started during the 2019 publishing year. Most interestingly, WYJ has transferred 7 series out of their magazine, with 6 of those series having received color pages in their final chapter in the magazine. In addition, 6 series have ended without being transferred out to somewhere else, with only 1 of those series getting a color page for its last chapter. So 13 series have disappeared from WYJ thus far this year, and none of the new series that have premiered so far haven't been decent hits yet.
Has Libidors been selling alright? Kawaisounine and Douji may be able to stick around for a little while if their next volumes sell more than the first, as could Momo. Maku may be in a bit more trouble with its first volume's sales, but hopefully the next one will see some improvement. Tiempo looks like it could be the next goner, Shadows House seems to be scraping by even though its sales didn't seem stellar, and Batuque is selling surprisingly low for a series from a popular author.

Snack Basue has one of the most interesting Color Pages I have seen recently. It looks like a painting! So damn good and creative!
Libidors has been selling poorly from what I remember, it actually dropped Volume 1 to Volume 2 (8,9k in 13 days for Vol 1 and just 5,3k in 10 days for Vol 2 so even with 3 days difference I doubt the drop would be that smaller).

Yikes for Libidors. It still seems to rank decently most of the time despite that. Also, I almost always forget that Good Job and Who I Am are both technically still around, but sporadically, especially for Who I am. Honestly, there's a lot of stuff that could easily end, but basically all of it is new stuff from basically the past year.
As for the Snack Basue color page, you're dead on! It's actually a parody image of the famous American painting Nighthawks. The color and composition of the author's parody of it though are fantastically done. Quite tasteful and fitting for the series itself.
Oh wow, I had no idea who Good Job's author was. I decided to look him up, and had no idea is was being done by someone with so many decades worth of experience. Definitely an interesting works list throughout the years. In that case, I can definitely agree that Good Job will probably stick around for as long as it wants (within reason if its sales are atrocious).
November 2018. Reason being '' Yu Sasuga needs to take a medical treatment for his disease''. Considering it has passed like 9 months since then, I am really worried about the guy.

A bit surprised to see Hatsukoi Zombie's author trying out something in WYJ instead of publishing in Sunday again. Although its sales were never great, WSS definitely gave Hatsukoi Zombie time to write a full story, regardless of how I felt about its conclusion. Maybe he was looking to try something with more of a mature theme?

Things are looking pretty good for Kawaisounine with a number like that. It could potentially show up for another week as well. Hoping Maku Musubi can turn things around as well since the series feels like it has a lot of heart to it. Although WYJ hasn't found any mega-hits yet, but it has been a while since the newbies have even ended up over 10k.
