Jesus a lot of these saw 15-20% drops from 2018.

At that rate the lower selling titles can't have too long left.

And making money of the internet is so much harder with falling ad revenue and easy ways to bypass paywalls.

That's target demography. But what % of Jump readers are actually female? I wish they'd show that. Interesting to see older people make up a decent chunk still

I hope this will finally convince Jump to go digital only or have a 1 week or month digital first release for the magazines. Then we can say goodbye to leaks (unless they get them from Chinese or Korean leaks, in which case there may not be much they can do about it).

How would going digital stop leaks? if it was easy Disney and Amazon would have done it for their streaming services.

I wonder how long Ultra Jump will be able to keep going. Jojolion seems to be its only popular series right now, and Bastard!! hasn't had a new chapter in ages.
