Hey, it's a new JUMP START! Even though the previous JUMP STARTS that became regular series have been in the magazine awhile, they still feel JUMP STARTY to me. I guess it takes some time before that fresh JUMP START smell begins to fade and they fully take their place as a regular series in my mind. But for now, it seems like we're practically all JUMP STARTS! Not that I'm complaining! 

Shudan
by Takuma Yokota

This manga is fresh! In the 80s rap slang way and in a story content way. It's tough to make sports manga feel fresh, but mangaka Yokota Sensei has pulled it off. And not only that, he's created some very likable characters. I usually don't get too attached to characters right off the bat, but these guys and gals are just so adorable! And there's also a lot of humor packed into this first chapter too. Plus, good art! This JUMP START pretty much has it all! 

One Piece
by Eiichiro Oda

One Piece is the best-selling manga ever and one of the best-selling books of any kind as well. And it's chapters like this that make it crystal clear why--Oda Sensei's still got it! Even after 84 volumes of manga, he's still firing on all cylinders and turning in jaw-dropping chapters. I'm not going to spoil any of it, but WOWSERS, this is one helluva manga!
