Weekly Shonen Jump #7
Lead CP: Kuroko no Basuke
CP: Nisekoi, Pakki

Positives:
  • Nisekoi's really high, but it's not officially ranked yet!!! And it's supposed to be ranked next issue, but it has colour pages, so I'll have to wait another issue. But oh, wait, it's a double issue AGAIN, so I'll have to wait 3 frickin' weeks just to know the first ranking!
  • So instead of Nisekoi in 4th place, it's Kurogane! Well done to it! (^_^)
  • Gintama may have slipped a little, but it's still in the top 5
  • Bakuman's risen from 8th to 6th
  • Bleach is out of the bottom 5 in 7th
  • Looks like I'll have to start reading Toriko and Sket Dance...
Negatives:
  •  Wow, Reborn!'s dropped from 4th all the way to just above the bottom 5. Quit trollin' me, Reborn!!!!!
  • Kagami no Kuni's in the bottom 5 for a second week running. Of the series that might get canned, I sincerely hope it doesn't get cancelled, and instead...
  • ... ST&RS. It's only a matter of time...
 Overall, a pretty interesting ToC this week. Ahh, now to read the finale to Oga vs. Jabberwock (^.^)

  • Aaand just when I get my hopes up, Kagami no Kuni drops into the bottom 5 -.-

(Oneshot, Color) 


Positives:
  • Bakuman's 4th week in a row in the top 5
  • Gintama's in the top 5 again. Viz, I really don't know why you cancelled this series. Hmm, maybe I'll do a little Viz Media rant soon...
  • Beelzebub, HELLO! Where've you been? Nice to see you in the top 5!
  • Kurogane's jumped back up to the top half in 6th
  • Kagami no Kuni! You have risen! Now let's hope you can maintain this kind of ranking!
Negatives:
  • One Piece has lost its 1st place spot to Naruto -.- Ah well, the arc's pretty much over now, and Naruto's current arc has been pretty dull. Well, apart from Tobi revealing he's not Madara. That was epic lulz.
  • Bleach is in the bottom 5 for a 2nd week running. This arc looks to be ending soon too. And last but not least... actually, maybe least...
  • ST&RS! RIP, maybe if you were moved to a different magazine...
Whoop, whoop! We got a one-shot next week! Maybe it'll be ST&RS' replacement...

Positives:
  • One Piece is top again
  • Gintama's back in the top 5 in 4th place ^^
  • Reborn!'s out of the bottom 5 and continues to yo-yo around the ToC
Negatives:
  • Bleach is in the bottom 5. My guess is that it's going too slow-paced...
  • Beelzebub's in the bottom 5 for the 6th week in a row :(
  • Wow, Kurogane's finally starting to drop just above the bottom 5. Hopefully it won't suffer the same fate as Kagami no Kuni and...
  • ... ST&RS, which is rock-bottom again. The next serialisation meeting is in January, I believe. I am 95% sure that ST&RS will be cancelled then. Harsh, I know, but I'm starting to think ST&RS isn't a suitable series for Weekly JUMP. It needs to make way for a new series... Having said that, I'm rather enjoying Nisekoi. Can't wait till it's ranked ^^

2012 Weekly Shonen Jump #1
Lead CP: Bakuman
CP: Kochikame, Kagami no Kuni, Nurarihyon no Mago



Positives:
  • Nice to see One Piece back in 1st
  • Bakuman's in the top 4 for the past 4 weeks, including this week
  • Gintama's dropped out of the top 5, but still a good ranking
  • I've now caught up with Kurogane. It wasn't ranked this week due to the CP
  • I'm also into Nisekoi now. It'll be interesting to see how it fares in JUMP
Aaaand looks like shit's about to go down...

Negatives:
  • Reborn!, what the fuck? From top 5 to bottom 5 in 1 week, that deserves a round of applause
  • ST&RS has risen a bit, but still in the bottom 5. I'm just waiting for the next serialisation meeting to put it out of its misery 
  • Beelzebub is STILL in the bottom 5. This makes it, what, 5 weeks in a row now? It's been in the bottom half now for 10 weeks...
  • Kagami no Kuni is at the foot of the rankings. I guess the ecchi-filled chapters aren't helping it. Ah well, hopefully the rankings will pick back up soon - especially with this new twist which has just been introduced

Weekly Shonen Jump #51
Lead CP: Kochikame
CP: Kurogane, Bleach



Positives:

  • One Piece back in 1st! Whoop whoop!
  • Gintama's in 2nd, meaning it's now been in the top 5 for 4 weeks in a row! (when it's been ranked) 
  • Bakuman's in 3rd, which is good seeing as it's building up to what may be the final arc
  • Reborn!'s in 4th, meaning 4 of my top 5 JUMP series are in the top 5. The odd one out just so happens to be Bleach, but at least that's risen a little

Negatives:
  • Beelzebub hasn't changed form last week - still 4th from bottom. RISE, DAMN YOU, RISE!!!! *ahem*
  • Kagami no Kuni, is 2nd from bottom?! Why?! Hopefully should rise with the coming chapters... And that should leave...
  • ... ST&RS, which is rock-bottom. That's it. I'm sorry, but I've given up hope of ST&RS staying in JUMP, and it's now a case of not if, but WHEN it will be cancelled :(

*Edit*

I don't know why the fuck the negatives have a white background, but I can't make it normal, so there :P

    • Reborn!'s colour pages were awesome as usual!
    • I enjoyed the first chapter of Nisekoi, hopefully it can develop into a sucessful JUMP series
    Negatives:
    • Kagami no Kuni's dropped a little to 10th. Hopefully it'll rise with this coming chapter...
    • Bleach dropped like a rock to 11th, just above the bottom 5 (Yes, I'm now counting HxH as ranked)
    • Beelzebub remains in the bottom 5 :@ Are the Japanese not liking this new arc or what?
    • ST&RS isstill stuck in the bottom 5. I think I'm losing all hope I had for it :(

    Negatives:
    • One Piece is 2nd again, but I'd rather see Bakuman on top of it than Naruto

    • ST&RS in the bottom 5 again! :(
    • Beelzebub is bottom (Again, not counting HxH)??? I guess people really don't like the training parts...

    Colour Pages: Nurarihyon no Mago, Gintama


    Positives:
    • Colour pages next week for Gintama, which is in the top 5...
    • ... as is Bleach ^^
    • Reborn!'s in 7th
    • ST&RS has risen a little, though still has a long way to go to steer clear of the bottom 5
    • A new series, Nisekoi, is starting next week, taking the place of Enigma. I have read the one-shot of Nisekoi and it was a very interesting plot. Looks promising ^^
     Negatives:
    • One Piece is 2nd again to Naruto! -.-  Come on OP, reclaim your rightful place! This arc hasn't been the most captivating of arcs, so hopefully will end soon, or Oda pull some wtf plot-twist
    • Beelzebub! Uncharacteristically low :( Hopefully should rise up
    • Kagami no Kuni is in the bottom 5, and in a pretty shitty place at that. Hopefully it hasn't lost its spark too soon...
    • Enigma has been cancelled. Kenji Sakaki (former assistant to Akira Amano), I wish you the best and good luck for the future. Hopefully you can make another series, which could take the world by storm ^^
