Shonen Jump

ssjtrunks13 · Jan 31st, 2003, 12:33 PM

I just thought it would be nice to let the anime fans here in the US know that Shonen Jump, a popular magazine in Japan, is now available here in America. It's got comics and news about various anime stuff. Also, Issue #3 has a promo from the DBZ CCG, for all those DBZ fans who play the card game and maybe those who don't watch the show and play the card game.

I have a link in my sig of a place where you can find reviews of the issues, but they've only finished the first one.

Yea, I have it. It's cool.

ssjtrunks13 · Jan 31st, 2003, 06:11 PM

Issue #3? I'm going to get it for the DBZ card and after I get that I won't have any money left over for another one.

Suzuki_Fanboy · Jan 31st, 2003, 06:20 PM

I have issue 2 right now. Issue 3 isn't out yet is it?

merylsilverburg · Jan 31st, 2003, 07:10 PM

Yeah, I heard about the US Shonen Jump a long time ago. It's good they decided to bring it over because all the good mangas they have in it, such as Naruto, One Piece. In Japan, Shueisha is the publisher of ShonenJump and they are also the ones responsible for the Rurouni Kenshin mangas too.

ah! I love Shonen Jump! I've bought every issue since it first came to stores in america! I can wait for the next! Wooo!

ssjtrunks13 · Jan 31st, 2003, 10:25 PM

I heard Issue #3 came out this week from dbzcardgame.com, which is a week earlier than they thought it was coming out.

Dude, forget that shonen jump mgarbage. It's a waste of your money. Go for newtype. It just started releasing in november, and it's the best anime mag i've ever seen. I saw a few shonen jumps as they came out, didn't really find anything spectacular about them. To me it just seemed to recap on more popular anbime, saying, and showing stuff that most of us already knew. I do know of a few who do get it, and they say it's pretty good. But i have my doubts.

Anyways, carry on.

ssjtrunks13 · Feb 1st, 2003, 05:51 PM

I'd like to remind you that I'm getting Issue #3 because I want to get the card and that's the only way to get it.(of course I don't mean for anyone to take this as an insult.)

Seraph Sephiroth · Feb 3rd, 2003, 02:29 AM

personally I like BOTH magazines, I've been buying both since they came to store and looooooove them! Oh yeah! and I got Issue three today.. and I have that card.. sont know what I'm gonna do with it.. maybe my little cousin will want it or something... anyway.. I also like Animarica magazine.

ssjtrunks13 · Feb 3rd, 2003, 08:20 AM

I'd suggest you mail it to me, that is of course you'd have to get my address first. Seeing as I am going to buy the magazine maybe it would be better on you if you could find someone else. I hadn't ehard about it until I had got an e-mail form the people at score about the card in issue three. Where do you people find out about this stuff?(I've asked this before and I am looking for an answer)

David · Feb 4th, 2003, 03:51 PM

Why don't we get this in Canada? Why?

ssjtrunks13 · Feb 4th, 2003, 04:34 PM

You don't, dang. Is there people living there who only speak french? Just curious beacsue maybe it would need to be translated to that language too.

Yeah, there is people who speak French here, but we have most magazines that are english, and not french. I'm english, can't speak french nor understand french.

ssjtrunks13 · Feb 4th, 2003, 05:28 PM

Just curious, then I have no more ideas. Maybe someone has/could start a petition on www.petitiononline.com.

If I'm not mistaken, I believe Shounen Jump is a magazine that features manga stories and only some anime news. Popular manga from Japan are translated into English and are put in this magazine, so that you can read it and within every issue, the story continues until the end. Almost like that old anime magazine, MixxZine (or however you spell it). Newtype USA is a magazine that features all anime/manga previews and reviews and shows the latest things in the Japan and the only manga story they have is...well...whatever manga is featured in the USA version (I don't get the US version

). Like, if you guys get the Japanese Newtype, they have the popular Five Star Stories manga which looks really great and has been going on for a long time.

I personally think Shounen Jump is a great opportunity for people who can't get graphic novels to read popular guy manga.

rpgKing · Feb 14th, 2003, 12:19 PM

my friend has the japanese version. He wouldnt let me touch it though.

ssjtrunks13 · Feb 14th, 2003, 04:25 PM

Why not? Is he trying to keep it in the best condition possible?
