The English language digital manga magazine will be released weekly in English, and shall be published simultaneously with the print version in Japan.

Weekly Shonen Jump is a fan favorite magazine where emerging and long-running hit manga series are shown to the world first. We’re excited to expand the readership of this magazine to the comiXology and Kindle audience.

It’s amazing we live in an age where it’s possible for fans to read manga in English the same day as appears in Japan. This is why we’re thrilled to share Weekly Shonen Jump on comiXology and Kindle as we’re now able to give fans access to the latest and greatest manga around.
