This is only the series with over 100 chapters, there are many more titles available with less than 100 chapters which are also great series worth reading, this is only for those who might want some longer series.

It only says website in the title, but there’s also an app, however not every series is available on the app.

No sequel series were added to the list (Tokyo ghoul, Jojo’s), because they’re in the sequel series interest stack (and there’s no room anyway).

You can read all of the series with every chapter for $2.

The only series without every chapter available for free are:
Dragon Quest: The Adventure of Dai (Chapters are added as the volumes are released) NOT LIKELY TO GET ANY MORE VOLUMES.

These are the series only available on the website:
Golden Kamuy
Jigokuraku (Hell’s Paradise)

Noteworthy shounen that released during the Era of the "Big 3"

Worldbuilding - "the process of constructing a world, originally an imaginary one, sometimes associated with a fictional universe." These kinds of manga are usually set in a fantasy and/or sci-fi world, and excel at establishing & showcasing the rules/history/economy of their fictional universe. List was created through collective data from multiple websites of people's answers as to what manga are considered to have great world building.

Number of sales and date that number was acquired from in notes for each. Some of them I have personally estimated a higher figure than the date says.

No. 147 would be the Himitsu Series of books. It's for children and I can't find it on MAL. It has 116 volumes and started in 1972, and has sold 23 million (June 10th, 2018).

No. 156 is Sho Ban by Yuji Moritaka and Yukitaro Matsushima, which started in 2001 with 44 volumes & 340 chapters in Weekly Shonen Champion.

No. 176 is Tsukiji Uogashi Sandaime by Ken'ichi Oishi, Masaharu Nabeshima, Kazuto Kuwa, & Mitsuo Hashimoto, which started in 2000 with 42 volumes & 324 chapters in Big Comic Shogakukan.

Focused on food-related titles in fantasy settings.

Great mangas for everyone from different genres and years.

For anyone interested in what graced the pages of the world's biggest manga magazine.

EDIT: Removed "Chainsaw Man" since it transferred to Shonen Jump+.

EDIT: Removed "Hunter x Hunter" since it is not listed in Jump's lineup anymore.

EDIT: Re-added "Chainsaw Man", "Hunter x Hunter", and other series that have left the magazine, since they count as part of its history.

EDIT: Added "Kochikame".

Manga that are heavily influenced by Dragon Ball / classic Shounen Jump battle manga. Kind of super specific, but hopefully looking at the list you'll see what I mean.

MANLY Anime: https://myanimelist.net/stacks/17625

If I had a nickel for every time...

A list of manly oriented manga. Caters to those who like muscular characters, idealistic men, detailed art, manly tears, etc.

"Best" is subjective, but I think we can all agree that, in a manga, there is always that one arc that blows the rest of the story in the water: a turning point where the status quo is challenged and the plot reaches higher stakes. Basically, the peak of a series.

Presenting my list of the "best" arcs in several Weekly Shonen Jump manga, in no particular order. This list also includes some manga that have transferred to a different magazine (e.g. Chainsaw Man, World Trigger, D.Gray-man, etc.), since their arcs were published when they were still in WSJ.

EDIT: Added arcs for "Sakamoto Days", "Witch Watch", "The Elusive Samurai" and "Mashle".

Manga that make you go, "What the fuck am I even reading anymore." Usually manga that go batshit insane approaching the end of the story. Kongo Bancho here because of the shark, so fucking peak. Also any Go Nagai manga ever.

Order is from ochd.co.uk, so it may not be alphabetical

I will update this as new series are added

This is from what I found, so I may have missed something.

Same rules like the last three.
