Which are the "Weird 3" of Shonnen Jump nowadays? (lemmy.world)

You may have heard of Shonnen Jump's "Big 3" back in the day. They were, if I'm not mistaken: Naruto, One Piece** and Bleach**. Three of the most successful Mangas of the magazine that were published simultaneously.

It's been a while since then, we are in a new era with new groundbreaking manga. Will there be an equivalent to the "Big 3" in the modern era?

For me there is no argument, two of the most artistically and narratively impressive manga currently on the air are Chainsaw Man and Dandadan. Mind you, they're not as "big" as Naruto was back in the day or One Piece is today, but their impact is undeniable.

So I thought I'd give them their own category: the "Weird," weird manga being published simultaneously and having a brutal impact.

**That said, I'm missing one more manga to be able to talk about the "Weird 3", so I wanted to know if any of you have a suggestion for the third spot.

Or if you have your own way of ranking the most famous, original and/or successful manga, I would like to read your opinions.
