CATDOLL: A Japanese company launched JUMP in advance, which caused heated discussions and people came to buy it or intervene to stop it

As for serialized publications and magazines, the magazine publishers will release them on fixed dates. However, due to the uniformity of time, some books and magazines will distribute the finished publications to various sales points in advance according to the production cycle. This has also caused a series of problems such as sneak peeks and spoilers of content in advance.

Recently, a bookstore in Japan was found to have moved up the sale of Jump magazine, which was originally scheduled to be released every Monday, to the Saturday of a week before the release date. After this phenomenon was discovered by netizens, some people came specifically to buy it; while some people demanded that the bookstore be stopped from doing so because they felt spoiled!

"In the old days of forums, as long as I didn't go to read it specifically, I didn't have to worry about spoilers. But nowadays, platforms like Twitter are highly developed, and it's easy to see spoilers even if you don't mean to. This has greatly reduced the fun of reading a work, which makes people unhappy."

There was also a Japanese media interview. When asked if there were any new JUMPs, the owner replied, "Yes. I received them on Saturday afternoon."

If you were near this bookstore, would you buy the book because you wanted to know the story in advance? Or would you stop it for the sake of the public interest and market sentiment? As for how the bookstore will deal with this behavior, Anime Star will continue to pay attention.
