How did they allow shota cocks in 2025 in main magazine? investor-kun won't like this.
>>282045762>Brazil officials will have this in high quality
it's ok Togashi-sensei is returning
>>282039281>Otr - 46,123It doesn't surprise me that out of all the new series, this one is the most popular on the site, especially given MANGA Plus's main demographic. If it has anything going for it, it's that it is incredibly easy to read and digest; it's like a Saturday morning cartoon in manga form.

>>282046239It looks like someone's shitpost parody, yes. Maybe that's the appeal of it.

>>282046511I trust in otr

>>282046891WINNERS
>>282046762It's not as good as those inspirations, though, which is why it feels like a shitpost parody sometimes.
>>282045673Why did you FORGE another thread?
>>282045838I hope we see Machi
>>282046898Which inspiration made Hokuto the Mexican?
>>282046898Idk I like it about the same as part 1 Naruto, scales in different spots but weighing the same total, and unless something crazy happens no chance in hell it gets as bad as part 2I never liked Bleach though
>>282046577I'm pretty sure Nue is already that.
>>282047063Ironically, KGB has nothing from Bleach despite being the magic sword manga of WSJ.
>>282047150Yeah, very very little from bleach but still there's some traces clearly thereIt's why I mostly brought up Naruto, KGB is a couple name changes away from being a straight up Naruto fanfic
>>282047063>rokuhira cells>eye/limb transplants>every top tier EB attack is a generic nuke>datenseki came from outer spaceIt's like a few plot twists away from becoming a part 2 ripoff
>>282047240Only the datenseki part seems plausible, but then it's been said to come from an island in the south.Who's to say though. Look at JJK. It's all ayy lmaos in one swoop just a year later.
Talk about Himaten
>>282047421
I expect the islanders to have eye related powers or something similar to the sharingan.

>>282045762Investors? Bitch this is a private company you know?
>>282048357Most of these are reaching to the moon.Only thing similar is bankai/true realm
So who is winning tsugimanga? By now the winning series should have already gotten reprints, so who THE FUCK won?
>>282048357>a bunch of ultra generic stuffMeanwhile basically every relevant KGB character has a direct tie in function or form to Naruto in one way or another

Mobile games are a bit tricky because their popularity tends to be often overestimated due to the size of their revenues. Do you guys remember those weird few people who were touting Blue Archive as “the next big thing”?

>>282048553you mean Genshin
>>282048538Blue Archive is just there for porn art, like Kancolle, Azur Lane before it. Nobody actually plays that, compared to say, Uma Musume, Hoyogames, Idolm@ster, or even JJK and OP shovelwares

Otr will be kept around for another two batches to make Kiyoshit look better. Saito replaced Shinobi with Otr in the new promo because Shinobi was humiliating Kiyoshit in every metric.

with Otr's fate is all but sealed, we now should concentrate our hate to piss pong
>tfw people are predicting otr will survive next batch too because it might be just be ekiden and ppp axeUm pppkeks?
>>282049761PPP can put the lolihag on its cover and increase its sales in November. Otr isn't surviving this let's be honest.
>>282049597>>282049605>>282049675KGB didn't hit 100k until volume 4. It'll be the same case for Ichi. Don't be impatient.
>>282049761The situation is truly dire if something selling sub 5k physical + digital is meeting the line for survival over a new batch of series imo. I'm not even a sooner type but that would be catastrophic for the state of the magazine.
https://www.newyorker.com/magazine/2025/09/01/how-weekly-shonen-jump-became-the-worlds-most-popular-manga-factoryKGB? won
so why did saito give a series he ranked bottom 2 for 10 weeks straight a cp? retard or 200iq?
>kill blue gonewho will be gate keepers of EXIST?
>>282049812Ichi is already past volume 4 THO
>>282049695>>282049739GrimThis shit is Champion levelat this point early Iruma would survive in Jump which sold 1k
>>282049842KDG of course. The son of KKK's big three Kill Blue.
>>282049812Anon, the only reason it didn't hit 100k by volume THREE is because it needed an immediate reprint.Ichi is declining by volume 4 instead.
>>282049838>paid articleDo you think we spic/pajeet have money?
>>282049695Ichigoki is still unbeatable
>>282049882>paid article ?
>>282049707Hakutaku lasted for some days iirc
>>282049887pretty sure that also sold around 2k
what a chill thread
>>282049812AnonIt's already volume 4
>>282049791It will be funnier if ppp gets axe but it outsells otr. Like ShE and ggg.

>>282050085That’s our tsugimanga winner
>>282048822Somehow everything seems lower than usual. Is it finally a competitive month? Kimetsu backlogs?

Ichi isn't lgbt
>>282050119>I want you to USE me>*shoujo filters on two effeminate men*
>>282050085Chojo shouldn't have been in WSJ. It's an otaku manga for 25-35 year olds that doesn't even attempt to appeal to people under 18.
>>282050160
>>282050119correct. It's woke. The lastest show a strong and independent niggress demonstrates WOMAX POWER and attacks a "male witch" unprompted on sight to protect their WOMAX hierarchy structure.

Otr will live.
>>282050807>rapidly rising popularity
Nice Prison selling 500 would be the perfect wake up call
Do you know what's funny? Tsutaya and Animate ended up using the same illustration (vol 4 cover) for Himaten vol 5 postcard bonus, just with different backgrounds.
>>282050965It's assumed that Otr moved up in the TOC ranking because of this Iron Spirit power in chapter 11 and Sixten and Cholerio in chapters 12 and 13, lore and worldbuilding on spirits, and having an actual goal for it. The introduction of King Eight Hooves in chapter 14 might have garnered good ratings.It's safe to say the EIC and editorial department are happy with the reader's positive reception of Otr.
>>282051170That's cool buddy>gets another bottom 2 ranking and sells less than Syd

detective...
Chapter 17 – “Wickedhorn”Outside the barrier lies the Mockle, inside lurks an unseen foe—Having achieved his objective, Wickedhorn secretly slips away from the ship. The vessel, however, keeps crashing into invisible obstacles, throwing the group into a panic.But Khuteinn, observing the seabirds, fish, and waves, calmly charts a safe course forward, earning Otr’s admiration.Yet, with every sway of the ship, something lashes out, wounding Huginn and Otr.Huginn invokes the Rune of the Mirror and sees through it—naked blades whirling in the air.They realize their enemy is a user of the forbidden art of Invisibility, a sorcery outlawed to prevent abuse.But Huginn declares he knows every countermeasure to forbidden arts, and unleashes the “Bloodstained Aurora.”With it, Wickedhorn’s form is revealed at last.“Even my countermeasures were countered…!” Wickedhorn whines, wallowing in self-pity. Otr, unsettled, senses something unnervingly off about his emotions.Wickedhorn introduces himself:“I am Doadoa the Wickedhorn—the man who’ll stoop to any foul trick just to see the faces of the miserable!”But the grandiose self-introduction is only a distraction—during it, he steals Khuteinn’s memories using ancient magic.“The grave’s location… I’ve found it. You’re no longer of use.”With those words, he orders the Mockle to seize nearby islands and hurl them like boulders.The group scrambles to evade, but too late—neither barrier nor flame can hold back the onslaught. Panic sets in.At that moment, Otr decides it’s time to wield the new power entrusted to him by Sindra. He takes his stance.With a blade reforged, strengthened by shards of the Iron Spirit, he unleashes:“Crimson Blade: Iron-Fire Flash!”With one stroke, he cleaves an island apart.The group, saved, rallies:“After him! To the sea of the ‘Grave’!!” To the resting place of the Spirits!!Next issue: “Wind Spirit Arc” – Thanks to huge support, color pages!!
>SHIT TASTER hates her manga because SHE WON Eat shit Crepal. Himaten is going to stay.

>>282050060Here's the t, sis
>>282051631>Hokazono takes just one evening off each week, after his meeting with Imamura to plan out the next episode’s story line.>[Paraphrasing cause it’s like 4 paragraphs] In the weekly meeting, Imamura pushes Hokazono to remember where all the current characters are and where they need to be, and discuss how they are gonna get there in as cool of a way as possible>[Paraphrasing again] Imamura recalls Hokazono’s first one shot, calling it ingenious and calling him special for being able to; draw well, have interesting ideas, and portray it all well in the form of a manga>...but Jump, which fine-tuned a formula for coaxing hit franchises out of young talents, has helped manga and anime to enter the mainstream. Hokazono is their next big bet.
