Launched in 2014, Shueisha’s Shonen Jump+ is a globally famous digital platform that has included some of the most renowned manga series ever since, including Dandadan, Spy x Family, and many more. As the most famous demographic across the globe, shonen by far has the toughest competition in the industry, so it’s no doubt that Shonen Jump+ can serialize the most promising series. But this also means that not every series makes the cut and fails to pull a large audience for any number of reasons.
