CATDOLL: The comic series of Awkward Syndrome, which was once rejected by JUMP, is now a big hit

Have you ever had your comic submission rejected, but it was accepted by another magazine and became a big hit? When you want to work for a company, you have to go through an interview to decide whether to hire you. Comics are no exception. Whether your work can be serialized in the magazine you submit will be evaluated by the corresponding reviewers. For a magazine to survive, the selection of submitted works is very important.

As one of the well-known comic magazines, Weekly Shonen Jump receives a lot of comic submissions, but only a few of them can be serialized. Some of these works may be excellent, but they are still rejected by the magazine. Why is this? Is it because the style of the work does not match their magazine? Or did the reviewers make a mistake? In any case, letting these works go is definitely a loss. Let's take a look at the discussion of netizens below!

Works rejected by JUMP: "Lot's Emblem", "Fullmetal Alchemist", "Arabou Motan MAGI", "Attack on Titan", "Invasion! Cuttlefish Girl", "The Seven Deadly Sins", "Gantz". It seems that JUMP does not like imaginary fantasy.

Why did you reject "The Coat of Arms of Rod"? It's really good!

5: The wind blows けば名无し@\(^o^)／：2016/05/26(木) 04:57:44.64

It's a pity that I missed "The Seven Deadly Sins", "Attack on Titan" and "Fullmetal Alchemist".

Missing out on Fullmetal Alchemist is a loss.

Even if it’s released from JUMP, it may not necessarily sell well.

10: 风风けば名无し@\(^o^)／：2016/05/26(木) 04:59:26.18

The works before "The Seven Deadly Sins" are indeed garbage.

11: 风风けば名无し@\(^o^)／：2016/05/26(木) 04:59:35.66

There is no element of effort at all.

13: 风风けば名无し@\(^o^)／：2016/05/26(木) 04:59:53.59

They didn't want "Fullmetal Alchemist", so later it became the signature work of "GANGAN".

These were not interfered with by the JUMP editorial department. According to their approach, "Cuttlefish Girl" would also become a battle manga.

These works are definitely not JUMP's style.

18: 风风けば名无し@\(^o^)／：2016/05/26(木) 05:02:08.55

"The Emblem of Rod" won the Rookie of the Year Award, but the author ignored JUMP's invitation to serialize the series.

21: 风风けば名无し@\(^o^)／：2016/05/26(木) 05:03:14.65

Isayama Hajime's drawing skills were indeed not good at that time.

22: 风风けば名无し@\(^o^)／：2016/05/26(木) 05:03:14.71

The author of The Seven Deadly Sins also serialized his works in JUMP.

Let’s talk about the writers that Magazine missed, Rumiko Takahashi and Gosho Aoyama. If he had held on to these two, Sunday might have been finished.

After being rejected, Rumiko Takahashi first went to Shueisha, but was rejected again and went to the nearby Shogakukan.

It was correct not to release it in JUMP.
