Weekly Shonen Jump Issue #25 2012 Cover

Issue #25 sees the start of Kouhei Horikoshi-sensei’s (author of Oumagadoki Dobutsuen) Sensei no Bulge, featured on the cover.  The chapters in this issue for the series I cover have so far been either hit or miss with me but the most notable would be One Piece.  Check out the awesome and beautifully drawn centre colour for Pajama na Kanojo – Haikyuu!!’s one pales in comparison.

Here’s this issue’s chapter reviews. (more…)

Weekly Shonen Jump Issue #24 2012 coverKatekyo Hitman Reborn Chapter 384 Colour

Trying to find the cover for this issue has been close to impossible, but don’t worry I’ll add one as soon as possible.  This issue saw the start of a new gag series by the name of PSI Kusuo Saiki and the chapters of the other series were mostly good.  I’m still waiting for Haikyuu!! to catch up but I think at the speed that Uprod scans are going, it will be caught up soon enough.

So let’s take a look at this issue’s chapters. (more…)

With the end of the arc, it was time to progress smoothly into the next arc of the Ao no Exorcist storyline.  Well, not quite. (more…)

Golden Week has come and gone and the Friday release of Issue #23 is what it brought with it.  This issue marks the ending of Pakki and the start of one of the 3 new series, Koisome Momiji.  I have no idea whether this series will be of interest to anyone in the west or why it is that Jump has now introduced a 3rd romance (not even counting magico) but in the interest of being fair I will review this series as well as the other 2 new ones should they be scanlated.  Ok now back to this issue’s chapters.

NOTE: With Nisekoi’s delayed chapter releases, as well as magico and Kurogane’s I’ll start covering them in a separate post. I’m just going to add them later to this post.

Another new manga to share my thoughts on.  This one happens to be a manga by Hajime Segawa who some might recognise as the author of Ga-Rei, another series that dealt with a supernatural plot. (more…)

Sadly no Jump next week and hence the double issue but the chapters this week have been phenomenal.  Sadly this issue does mark the end of Ohba and Obata sensei’s Bakuman which will be dearly missed by all the fans, myself included.  Oh and the chapter review for Nisekoi will be added as soon as the chapter is released but I’m doing this since I can’t wait any longer to review all of the great chapters out this week.

Quite an uneventful set of chapters if I’m being honest. (more…)

I figured I can squeeze out another set of manga reviews if it’s a monthly manga and what better ones to review than Jump SQ’s exorcist duo. (more…)

I MAY have neglected to do this but in my defence I was trying harder to cover anime, but enough excuses let’s get back to reviewing this week’s issue.  New format for this post: I won’t bother hiding everything with spoilers so please read this if your okay with having details revealed or seeing snippets from the manga.

Gin no Saji Volume 2

I don’t know how I found this manga, oh wait I think all thanks must go to RedHawk.  Even though I knew a one-shot of the manga was out a year or two ago I nver actually got round to reading it.  Anyone heard of Hiromu Arakawa-sensei? Of course you have, even if your not familiar with her name you definitely have heard of Fullmetal Alchemist and now she’s brought out a new(ish) piece entitled Gin no Saji (Silver Spoon), so let’s check it out.
