How are seven series bonkers? Japan gets twenty two.

I can understand where you are coming from. But it is clear that the SJ Alpha team is doing the best that they can. (For me, as long as there is One Piece, I am okay.) But I do have faith that, if we continue to show support, that we will get more series in the lineup!

the reason there are only seven series in WSJA is be cause those are the one that are the best!

FAIRY TALE is not a SHONEN JUMP title.

And for those who have asked, ye shall receive. Big announcements are coming up at Anime Expo and San Diego Comic-Con!

Let's just remember that it is in fact a shonen manga.

Submitted by John Bae on Tue, 06/19/2012 - 09:49

But you do realize that it comes from a completely different magazine. In fact, from a completely different publishing company in Japan...

Really enjoying Barrage. Hope it stays in SJ!

I totally agree. [spoiler Barrage is epic, now it's no Bleach but it's still great I couldn't believe what I was reading. No joke. I'm looking at each chapter thinking it's perfect. You have an ultra powerful character, that's really a nobody; however, he has a family of his own and guardian that is totally powerful.[/spoiler]
