No, Gintoki ? Seriously ?

We have Asta and Emma and even Tanjiro but not Gintoki. That's really weird.

One could say the same for Naruto. Or Yugi.

I want to know why Goku isn't the orange piece.

And when we will get an English version.

no pieces for Naruto, Ichigo, or Gintoki is a bit odd but I guess they want to promote the more current stuff like my hero or black clover (even though Goku has a piece, but I guess it's because of the new movie coming out?)

Kochikame has been over for a little while now too (about two years?), so Ryo-san is hardly current either. That said, it also ran for like forty years, so I guess he's earned it.

It's quite surprising there isn't one for Naruto or at least Boruto seeing as that's current.
It would've been cool to see Gintoki, Ichigo, Kenshiro and a character from JoJo, Dio maybe? need a villain.

I'd give an eye for a Madoka Magica 'Risk" board game.

This Shonen Jump game is great for fans.

We can complain about the character section all we want, but it's clear there was a logic behind it where they wanted to focus mostly on characters from manga that were currently popular in Jump, with the two biggest legacy characters (in Japan) backing them up. It wasn't a weird oversight so much as an actual decision that was still pretty lame. This looks super cool in general though.
