Look at this handsome guy! Those tiny edamame-sized eyes, that big basketball like head, the huge Cheshire Cat smile, that smooth, slimy bluish green skin and those tentacles! Look out, ladies! And move over Ryan Reynolds, there's a new hunk in town and his name is Koro Sensei! This is the first time he's had the U.S. Shonen Jump cover for himself, so it's cause for celebration! Just throw your tentacles in the air and wave 'em like you just don't care!
One Piece
by Eiichiro Oda
After last week's amazing elephant battle, this week's chapter returns to the gang finalizing their plans to split up and accomplish their goals. And they have a lot of goals, so get ready for a new story arc that will be all over the place. Like literally, as everyone splits up and heads off in different directions. Can they save Sanji? Can they save Wano? Can they find Marco? So much to do!
My Hero Academia
by Kohei Horikoshi
In the last chapter, our heroes were wearing sneaky disguises and searching for their kidnapped comrade, Bakugo! And while they're on the hunt, the brass at the U.A. are getting grilled by the press about the recent battle. Facing villains is one thing, but an angry mob of reporters is something entirely different!
Black Clover
by Yûki Tabata
Beach party! It's kind of an unwritten rule in manga that at some point all the characters must go to the beach and do wacky things. It's a great chance for the mangaka to show their bikini-drawing skills. And we get to see all the players relax a bit and frolic before the next big battle comes up. I'm a fan of manga beach parties, and if I were rating this one on Yelp, I'd give it five stars. Get ready for antics!
World Trigger
by Daisuke Ashihara
More Rank Wars! And the battle is getting serious! After some missteps by Katori Squad, they've regrouped and are giving Osamu and team a bit more trouble. But it's all about strategy! And whoever has the best strategy has a huge advantage. Find out who the man with the best plan is!
Food Wars!: Shokugeki no Soma
story by Yuto Tsukuda, art by Shun Saeki, contributor Yuki Morisaki
Soma made quite an impression on the number first seat, Tsukasa. By being such an incredible sous chef, Tsukasa has asked him to join Central! Of course, Soma being the good guy he is was baffled at the offer. Is the first seat naive enough to think Soma would join after all that's happened? Why would he ask such a preposterous question?
Nisekoi
by Naoshi Komi
Chitoge's disappeared! Like, splitsville, for reals! And the entire class is in an uproar! Everybody's out and about trying to track her down at all her usual places. After hearing some very heartbreaking things from both Onodera and Raku, it seems the pain was too much for her. But where did she go? And how will they find her?
Bleach
by Tite Kubo
Kenpachi unleashes his Bankai! And it's as impressive as you'd imagine! He's one ticked off guy, and Gerard's about to get the full force of his rage. But will it be enough? Can this titan be toppled? Big fight, coming up!
Toriko
by Mitsutoshi Shimabukuro
Jiro comes a "knocking!" Now that Granny Chiyo's got a protective shield keeping the planet from being destroyed, Jiro the Knocking Master can fight with this full power. You know you've got some tough characters in a manga when they're so strong they'll literally destroy the planet if they fight a with all their power. These may be the toughest tough guys in all of Weekly Shonen Jump!
Assassination Classroom
by Yusei Matsui
Koro Sensei continues to annoy the assassins at the local bar by being nice to them. And giving them false hope that one can exploit his many weaknesses and put an end to the embarrassment. But the partying is cut short when a very bad man, even worse than the assassins, comes to collect a debt from the saintly owner.
