Editor and King of the Forums Urian Brown gives his take on this week’s issue of Weekly Shonen Jump Alpha!

Toriko
Toriko travels to one of the funniest places yet—Champagne Island and Cocktail Isle! A place where everything is alcohol and delicious salty snacks grow on trees! I want to live there!

One Piece
The adventure continues on Punk Hazard! The crew is captured and meet a real samurai! Well, parts of a samurai. Even for One Piece, this chapter is pretty wacky! It’s also funny, I literally “LOL’d” at my desk while reading!

Nura: Rise of the Yokai Clan
It looks like things are heating up, and the pieces are being put in place for a major event! I love where the story is going and look forward to finding out more about the bad guys and the upcoming “purification.”

Naruto
SASUKE’S BACK!!!! And not just as a cameo. He and Team Hawk are fully back in the story! Which makes me happy, because I’ve always loved the Team Hawk characters. Super wacky and kinda psycho—my kind of people!

Bleach
Wowwowowow! There’s an epic spread in here that’ll tickle your inner-fan for sure! I won’t spoil it by describing it, but yeah, it’s epic. Also, Ichigo has a rad one-liner at the end!

Bakuman
The controversy of Miho Azumi starring in Moritaka’s anime Reversi reveals the cruelty of haters on the Internet. But when Fukuda finds out the real story behind their relationship, he decides to fight back!
