Shonen Jump, Good or Bad?

Yeah, but it's cheaper to get a subscription. I mean, off the stands, it's what, $5 an issue? That's $60 a year, versus I think $30 for a subscription. The only thing keeping me from getting a subscription is my current lack of finances and my desire to keep my mother from knowing that I'm spending money that I owe her on it. The problem is that, since I live on campus, it would be sent home and she'd see it first. It's not that she'd think it's evil, it's that she'd think it's a waste of money and get upset at me for it since I'm in debt...

I subscribe and I love it. It's not as good as the Weekly Shonen Jump in Japan, but for us it's great.

Naruto and One Piece are hands down the best manga in there. I don't think the translations are 100% great, but they're pretty good. I don't bother to read DBZ, Yugioh is pretty good (better than that crap-fest that plays on WB), YuYu Hakusho is getting better, as is Shaman King, and I personally like Sandland.

And the new manga when Sandland ends is not going to be Kenshin. They're going to publish one chapter of Kenshin as a teaser to get kids to buy the manga, then in January for their one year anniversary they're going to start running Hikaru no Go. (Yay!)

Heads-up to Anime_AngelGirl: Try not to necropost (aka, try to stick with threads on the first page of each forum category).

*shrug* It's okay... just try and keep a heads-up for it in the future.
