News Young Jump Launches Free Site with Eyeshield 21's Murata (Updated)
posted on 2012-06-13 03:00 EDT
Shueisha's Weekly Young Jump magazine is launching a spinoff website on Thursday, and two of the creators involved are Eyeshield 21 artist Yuusuke Murata and web manga creator ONE. The free "Tonari no Young Jump" website will have daily updates and a new series launching every week.
Murata revealed in January that he was planning a new magical girl manga series with ONE. ONE's best known manga, Onepunch-man, has received 7.9 million hits online.
After ending his Eyeshield 21 sports manga with Riichirou Inagaki in 2009, Murata serialized the Donten Prism Solar Car manga with Moonlight Mile creator Yasuo Ohtagaki in Jump Square magzine from 2010 to 2011.
Viz Media published the 37th and last Eyeshield 21 manga volume in North America last October. Sentai Filmworks began releasing the anime version in 2010 after Crunchyroll streamed it in several countries outside Japan.

Update: The website launched on Thursday, confirming that Murata is remaking ONE's Onepunch-man online.

Remember MeUnderneath all the explosive polygons and proper nouns, Remember Me is a game that has no idea what it's actually about.
The ending of Jormungand has something important to say ... but never figures out the actual message.
Sunny is an interesting glimpse into the lives of children who feel that the world has forsaken them and how they manage to cope with the help of an old car and a little imagination.
Ultimately Missions of Love still reads like a sexy book for middle schoolers. Yukina is far from a likeable heroine, neither Shigure nor Akira come off as particularly desirable male leads, and the less savory elements of the story detract from its romance components.
Hare + Guu Deluxe DVD 1This volume may not represent Haré + Guu at its best, but the truly funny parts are good enough to balance out the lame ones. A must for fans of the original TV series.
