As a result, it became the top-selling <a href="/facts/Manga/DPkkyHos">manga</a> magazine in Japan of its period, appearing popular amongst many <a href="/facts/Otaku/d7kWXELT">otaku</a>. But the position was later occupied by <i><a href="/facts/Weekly_Sh%25C5%258Dnen_Jump/F3JHjX1v">Weekly Shōnen Jump</a></i>, when this competitor was born in 1968, knocking <i>Shōnen Magazine</i> off the top spot. <i>Shōnen Jump</i> had begun to circulate and dominate the manga magazine market. This started from the 1970s and continued throughout the 1990s. </p><p>In October 1997, <i>Shōnen Magazine</i> reclaimed its position as the top-selling manga magazine of its day until this was brokered in 2002. Currently, the two magazines have competed closely in terms of market circulation. Sales of the two magazines now remain very close. Circulation has dropped below two million.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:19" href="#fn:19"><sup>19</sup></a> In a rare event due to the closeness of the two magazine's founding dates, <i>Weekly Shōnen Magazine</i> and <i><a href="/facts/Weekly_Sh%25C5%258Dnen_Sunday/9Ml0eIst">Weekly Shōnen Sunday</a></i> released a special combined issue on March 19, 2008.
