It’s Golden Week in Japan so that means there’s no Shonen Jump over there, but you guys will still get one! It’s a special bonus issue that won’t count against your subscription, but has some really cool stuff in it, including the hilarious reportage manga, The Right Way to Make Jump! That and as you can tell by this cover, Blue Exorcist! And Seraph of the End: Vampire Reign. Not bad for an off week!

The Right Way to Make Jump! 
by Takeshi Sakurai

Ever wondered how the English Weekly Shonen Jump is made? If we told you it would probably be pretty boring, but what if you could read a manga about it from the perspective of a Japanese mangaka? Sakurai Sensei and Editor MomiyXX came to the American Shonen Jump office and interviewed the staff and did some research into the exciting world of SJ manga in America. The result is a hilarious reportage manga that will not only show the secrets of our magazine, but show you the U.S. through the eyes of someone who has never been here before. 

Extras: Bundles of Joy announcement, Author Comments.
