I can't be bothered to look up images for all these literally who manga, so here's the cover for the number 1 spot.
Here's the cover, I forgot to acually add it.
>literally who manga
A consequence of not allowing any repeat rankings I suppose. I read a lot of shoujo, but the only titles I recognize here are the sequels to two classics and another classic.

Not bad, I hope that the translation for Tongari Boshi catches up with the raw.
Volume 1 covers for numbers 5-8.
Raws where?
Maybe they'll come out now and we might even get translations with it winning, it looks pretty interesting.
Volume 1 covers for numbers 9-12.
Does anyone know what the Japanese name is for number 15? I can't find any volume covers or anything for it, it isn't listed on any of the Western manga databases.

It'll never stop being amazing that Jump got three insta-classics within 2 years.
The list doesn't really matter, Flowers is 1 which already is ridiculous.
Is the list based on online polls like Kono Light Novel ga Sugoi?
>10.7SEEDS by Yumi Tamura
I'm glad it's getting at least a little bit of love considering it ended this year.
>A consequence of not allowing any repeat rankings I suppose.
I think there have been some repeat rankings actually (7seeds was also on the 2011 list) but maybe they have rules to stop some manga from appearing every year.
Very nice.
It's Jump, if you look at some of their other series and the time when they started you may end up being shocked. Like how Gintama and Death Note got serialized one after another.
All 3 are great and promising new manga.
Golden Kamuy was also second place in the past as well.

Big Comics (Shogakukan)
Wait? I thought soremachi ended?????
search the author, you tool
>No koi wa amaagari no you ni
Disappointing
Seem like so, look the voters are voting mostly for niche magazine seeing the list consist of seinen and josei. And that's why Sunday not being there is bad, it doesn't really try to appeal to mainstream audience, yet still can't do well enough to catch niche market
Volume 1 covers for volumes 13-16. What the fuck is that Dr. Stone cover, it's one of the worst volume covers I've seen.
Thanks, was about to post it without that.
Even stonefags agree the covers are shit. Whoever designs them should be fired.
>Satoko to Nada
>A story of cultural exchange between a Japanese and Saudi Arabian, who both share a room at an American University.
Fucking why? My uni is full with those people, they are inconsiderate selfish asshole that suck up to the professor and fuck over their group mate.
Sunday is in the top 10 most populat manga maginzes, it isn't niche.
The female top doesn't matter anyway.
Why is that? Girls spend quite a lot on books.
That's it. A lot of really good manga in this year's top. A lot of things I've never heard of that look great and a bunch of surprises like Beastars, Witch Hat and Kimetsu no Yaiba, Kuutei Dragons, they're all great.
Female top was pretty lackluster, some previous years actually had solid female rankings for the top 3 at least, not this year.
They mostly don't matter for us because none of that shit from the female section is ever translated because it's all obscure stuff. I don't care if it's all amazing as long as I can't read any of it, even in 5 years because of no translations. Probably 15-17 out of those 20 haven't been translated at all.
>The list doesn't really matter, Flowers is 1 which already is ridiculous.
Flowers has multiple well-known shoujo mangaka publishing in it and this year there were a few anniversary special chapters for cult series in it. So it's not that surprising to think it got most of the votes from the people in the business who are into shoujo/josei .
The first one looks interesting, the second one is a Hagio fucking Moto manga, and the third looks like it could be a funny culture shock manga in the vein of Hetalia (or more like the comics about the Hetalia's author's experience in an NY art school).
>got most of the votes from the people in the business who are into shoujo/josei .
Wait,so the list is voted by critics?
As another user pointed out, it might be amazing at all, but if it's never going to get translated, who cares.
If the general public voted, it would have One Piece on top every year.
amazing and all*
I thought these lists were voted on by book store employees?
Alright that explains quite a lot, thought it was public similar to Kono Light Novel ga Sugoi.
Yeah, the voters are around 400 people from the manga business (authors, editors, bookshop owners,etc)
Someone posted translations of a few pages from Satoko to Nada on Sup Forums yesterday actually but it's true that the chances of everything getting translated are low.
>> 6.Tongari Bōshi no Atelier (Atelier of Witch Hat) by Kamome SHIRAHAMA
wow
That's good to know, I hope the series maintains quality.
Pompo already has an anime announced.
The chances of 1/3 of those ever being translated is low already, all of them is not going to ever happen, probably not even half.
It looks like shit.
I don't know. There seems to be more and more translators every year.
Not for obscure shoujo or josei manga. We've been getting lucky lately because Kodansha US have been licensing a bunch of Josei and Shoujo manga from all of their magazines, we would've never seen translations for the majority of those otherwise.

Picked up.

This isn't even the first time a Jump title made this list
back to Sup Forums
Did dungeon meshi got excluded from nomination?
Now let's play the game how many guys are on that image
It won in 2015 or 2016.
You're telling me there isn't only 1 girl in there?
>Violence Action
>Kikuno Kei, nicknamed "Kay", is a normal university student and a part-time hitwoman.
Oh fuck, sign me up!
>Yeah, the voters are around 400 people from the manga business (authors, editors, bookshop owners,etc)
That really explains quite a lot, never have been a fan of the critical consenus.
Maybe won was the wrong term, it got 1st place.
Nothing is excluded, the voters probably just feel it's already at peak popularity.
>You're telling me there isn't only 1 girl in there?
I can't tell anymore. 1 is definite though, and that's that orange haired one.
Genres: Action, Thriller
Sign me the fuck up, she's a semon demon as well and 8 chapters are translated.
That's a different one, actually. This one includes book shop employees, but it isn't limited to them.
I just noticed something, the guys have thicc sexy hands and she has more feminine thinner hands.
Kamiya voices him

I'm loving this one so far.
Absolute perfection. Anime when.
fucking brutal
>To your eternity
Nice, it had one of the greatest 1st chapters in years IMO.
Incredible.
TPN is the new AssClass: lame characterization, lots of asspulls, but people will praise as fuck simply because it's not a battle shonen.
only the first is great, tho
People praised AssClass? The general census seems to be that it was a waste of an ingenious premise due to its dull cast and bad writing. Why it sold so much I have no clue.
Thanks user
Well yeah, but it had some good chapters here and there. I liked the Gugu arc and how Fushi tried to live normally. I was reading it until the prison arc, but I had to go away on the mission and didn't read it since the chapter they got sold top the slave boat.

Nice.
TPN will surpass HeroAca in sales after the anime.
It can't even surpass it now despite a full year of shilling on TV programs and TOC manipulation
Nips have amazing tastes for once.
sup herorager
Just like Black Clover
Stop going off topic, Boku no hero isn't even in this list. Keep your bullshit for your other threads.
I hope it doesn't become too popular, though. Beastars threads are few and far between, but they're always nice.
I don't care as long as the manga starts selling more.
That's kind of obvious.
No need to samefag user
How?
MHA - Sales in 2015: (6 volumes)
Rank 27 || 2,190,845
Promised Neverland - Sales in 2017: (6 volumes)
Rank 12 || 2,039,765
And this was with three TV promotions, a huge print run and a plethora of magazine shilling while MHA got next to nothing.
Stop going off topic you fucking pieces of garbage. Keep your retarded shit for other threads.
Digital sales having increased 30% through 2017 means mean that Neverland has at least 600k more than it says in your list.
It feels like looking into my future.
>Digital sales
I love this meme
It was confirmed by a report that digital sales grew 30% in 2017, user.
>Digital sales
Kek
With no numbers its a worthless factor to bring up
These are from last year, but they're pretty interesting:
>Sales of print manga volumes amounted to 194.7 billion yen (about US$1.71 billion) in 2016,
>sales of digital manga volumes amounted to 146 billion yen (about US$1.28 billion), a 27.1% increase from the previous year
It's a pretty sizable number.
>6.Tongari Bōshi no Atelier (Atelier of Witch Hat) by Kamome SHIRAHAMA
Pretty nice, I haven't seen that series getting discussed much (although admittedly I haven't been looking that hard either), but it has a lot of potential
BEASTARS is kemono manga? No furry shit?
Beastars is one of the best new shounen manga I've seen in a while. If you don't want to read it because your furry insecurities, then don't read it.
