@YXY311@Mick7763362412 They're both being scalped apparently so those sales figures are being inflated. Volume 2 for both will almost certainly drop in sales.
@Th3MangaAddict Can't imagine Under Doctor will have great legs or rank that highly in subsequent volumes, this rank is probably propped up by the scalping situation.
@WinspearUltima@Th3MangaAddict don't see Rokudenashi Blues or Rookies ever being licensed by VIZ (maybe by a small publisher), but if they ever do get licensed I imagine it'll only happen if they get anniversary adaptations in 2028 (Rokudenashi Blues 40th anniversary, Rookies 30th anniversary).

@Th3MangaAddict Would love to see Parashoppers and Witch Watch physical licenses (very unlikely for the latter sadly)
A bunch of these feel way too early to be honest (Osananananajimi, Witchriv and Someone Hertz, for example). (1/2)
@N0t_Ground_Zero@AzDulazD7@WSJ_manga eh, he's recommending it because it's by a former assistant of his. Mangaka recommendations don't mean anything unless they work for a different publisher tbh, otherwise it's just a famous mangaka doing his employers a favor and letting them put his name on something new.
@hawaiipartwo@WSJ_manga It had some pretty good SoL chapters but now a serious story arc started out of nowhere which may be a Hail Mary given its ToC placements
@AishinDesu@WSJ_manga A ton of axed manga got recs from big name mangaka lol, it doesn't really guarantee anything
All that matters is how well it sells

@jujuman404@MangaMoguraRE > pump out spin off manga & light novels like crazy then move on to the next series to start
also wtf are you talking about lol, spin-off LNs have always been a thing and they're *definitely* won't make more money than just selling more volumes of the main series... (2/2)
@jujuman404@MangaMoguraRE That's just false, the big 3 era had a couple of really famous long manga so people felt like it was a large percentage of the manga landscape when WSJ has only ever had 26 series go over 300 chapters (Roboco and Akane will almost certainly make it to 300 too) (1/2)
