Some new faces on the SJ cover usually means one thing--the JUMP STARTS have begun! And this one is most interesting! And as you can tell by the art, quite beautiful! Little kids wearing strange uniforms with number tattoos on their neck can only mean one thing--mysteries abound! Enjoy!
The Promised Neverland

You'd think living in an orphanage would be depressing, but not the orphanage in The Promised Neverland. It's magical! Everyone gets along great, there's lots of delicious food and "Mother," the woman in charge, is full of love and support. And when the orphans reach a certain age, they're adopted and are never seen again. It's a perfect life. Except for the numbered neck tattoos. And strange tests. And...get ready for a wild ride in our newest JUMP START!

Toriko
by Mitsutoshi Shimakukuro
I have been writing about manga for a long time. And despite the strange stuff that occurs in the fantastical and imaginative world of Japanese comics, I normally don't have a hard time describing it. Then there's Toriko. Specifically, this last story arc. There are so many crazy characters with crazy powers fighting, I don't even know how to describe it! But it sure is a lot fun to read! I've read hundreds of thousands of pages of manga in my life, and I've never read anything like it. What a trip!
Nisekoi

Agghhhh!!!! There's so much heartbreak and drama in this chapter! Raku's finally, finally, finally, finally, finally, finally, finally, finally made his choice and the lucky girl gives him an answer. I don't want to spoil it any further than that, but it is not the answer I thought it would be. Find out what happens!
Extras: Shonen Jump at SDCC, Optimal Illusions Yu-Gi-Oh! TCG feature, Author Comments, Nihongo Lesson.
