Trigger warning! The beautiful art on this cover may trigger feelings of joy and extreme happiness, especially among World Trigger fans. It's been a while since we've seen the handsome boys of Border on the cover of Weekly Shonen Jump. Dig the cosmic swirly background, practically glowing with cool energy effects! Sweet trion blades too!
World Trigger
by Daisuke Ashihara
This Rank War match is about to get serious! Captain Katori has lost an arm and her squad, but she's not giving up! She's got a big chip on her shoulder and that can be quite a motivator! With so many characters gone, the fight won't last long! Who will bail and who will prevail?
One Piece
by Eiichiro Oda
The Straw Hats have landed in a most unusual place! A land unlike any other they've been to before! Hey, I feel like I've written this before too! In fact, every time they go to a new place it's unusual and unlike any other. But this place may be the strangest of them all. What new adventures await our heroes? Find out!
Black Clover
by Yûki Tabata
The big undersea battle royale has been most rudely interrupted by a group of magical terrorists called the Eye of the Midnight Sun! Just when things were getting good too! These are no ordinary mages and it'll take all of the Black Bulls might to try and stop them. What started as a friendly competition has just officially gotten real!
Food Wars!: Shokugeki no Soma
story by Yuto Tsukuda, art by Shun Saeki, contributor Yuki Morisaki
Soma gets quite a surprise when the normally cold and distant Erina makes an unannounced visit to his room! What could the daughter of the evil Dean Azami possibly want to chat with him about? Does she have a plan to take her father down and win back the Totsuki Institute? Does she just want to get something off her chest? Fashion advice? Find out what it is!
Nisekoi
by Naoshi Komi
While hot on the trail of finding Chitoge, Raku bumps into someone completely different! And this surprise person spills the beans on the several subjects including the secret of the locket! But who is it and what do they know? I'll give you a hint: it's not Shu!
Bleach
by Tite Kubo
Ichigo is not having an easy time battling Yhwach! I mean I guess it's pretty obvious that he's going to have a really hard time considering Yhwach is the strongest person he's ever fought, but so far his attacks are about as effective as a fly against an elephant. He's going to have to dig a lot deeper if he's going to win this one!
Hunter x Hunter
by Yoshihiro Togashi
The craziest battle to end all crazy battles just keeps piling on more crazy! Chrollo's powers are so complicated they need flow charts! Hisoka's powers are a little easier to understand, but we've yet to see him fight with his full force! The crowd's gone wild, literally, as Chrollo's using them as puppets to fight Hisoka. Will anyone survive this fight?
My Hero Academia
by Kohei Horikoshi
Get ready for a heartwrenching chapter of My Hero Academia! The fight between All Might and All For One has been fairly one-sided, but all that changes in this chapter when All For One launches a different kind of attack. Looks like the greatest hero the world has ever known might have more weaknesses than we thought. Intense chapter, coming up!
Toriko
by Mitsutoshi Shimabukuro
God, the giant frog-thing, is making its move! Does it hop into space and come down and wreck the world? Does it puff up its neck pouch and let out the loudest croak anyone's ever heard? Does it grab a guitar and sing about the difficulties of being green? I'm not telling! But I will say, in the spirit of terrible click bait articles--you won't believe what happens next! Plus, some old familiar faces make a surprising comeback!
Takuan & Batsu's Daily Demon Diary
by Kentaro Itani
Just when it seemed things have settled down and Takuan could finally get some relaxing time in the bath, a most unusual fellow comes knocking! Well, more like crashing. But who is this new character and why does he have a grudge against Batsu? Well, she's kind of a terror, so the grudge part is understandable, but still, why involve her lowly minion, Takuan? Find out in the final JUMP START chapter of Takuan & Batsu's Daily Demon Diary. Hope you enjoyed it!
One-Punch Man
story by ONE, art by Yusuke Murata
It's the 22nd Super Fight! And the opponents look tougher than ever! In this chapter, fighters are introduced and laughter will follow.
