elian11071107 Posted December 1, 2011 Report Share Posted December 1, 2011 I recently heard that Shonen Jump that is going digital and weekly in US! I mean they are not printing the monthly anymore...That means I can't read Shonen Jump in School anymore (I don't have a cell phone either). And... They are dropping most of their series... Gintama was hit... D-Grayman (I think)Reborn (I think so too) and several others... How... why... In the latest volumes of these awesome series: there is no preview for the next volume and they say (End) not (To be continued)...I really want more info about this and hope that they will return... What do you guy's think...?Any ideas...? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edwardelric880 Posted December 1, 2011 Report Share Posted December 1, 2011 Sucks ass, doesn't it? Maybe the economy's having them cut costs and they'll bring it back once the economy stabilizes (if it ever does again.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Negimaru Posted December 1, 2011 Report Share Posted December 1, 2011 I used to work for a company that actually fixed the pages for jump/shojo beat i.e editing naruto for word bubbles and cleaning it and all seems that it costs a lot of people to send the pages to companies and well not eco friendly but who knows I'm not a fan of digital i rather read it all they better not do the same to the manga Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shadowtheman Posted December 1, 2011 Report Share Posted December 1, 2011 Don't give up hope dude. Just find a new source. It may not be as good as the first but its your only option for now. There are always fan sights that translate manga or sub anime on a weekly bases, some are so good that they release the subbed versions only hours after release.

elian11071107 Posted December 3, 2011 Author Report Share Posted December 3, 2011 Yeah... Thing is I was buying the entire Gintama series and then they dropped it around volume 23...In japan they have around 40 Volumes...But yeah, I have been reading ahead of the SJ US releases thanks to the online fan translations for years now, but it is so hard to just see most of your favorite manga not be printed in the US anymore... "Shonen Jump the worlds most popular manga" at that.And starting somewhere in March "The SJ in US" -To view the Online SJ US releases you have to pay them. Or be a subscriber or something... Why pay? When you can view them online for free... that are faster released too... (And Thank you so much to all the fan sub groups out there!)But everyone knows Naruto, Bleach, and One piece are here to stay- to be printed... The money and popularity they rake in is a force to be reckoned with as competition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
