I'm just wondering whether anyone else is mad about how far behind the english manga is. What is it now, the start of the first official "Ren?Yoh" fight? Come on! Why must Shonen Jump be so slow? PS I'm not whining, i'm just complaining.

They'll put in two chapters, make fans wanting more, they sell more magazines.

How accurate is Shonen Jump? And I agree that they should put more chapters in.
Tip: If one needs to (re)subscribe, DON'T mail in the subscription inserts in SJ ($34.00 or sumthing like that). Instead, go to the manga section of any bookstore, find a VIZ/SJ GN and take one of the SJ subscription thinglies from it. Now, you only hafta pay $29.99!!
Gotta be smart! Gotta know loopholes!

Um... OR you could just go to the Shounen Jump website, and get it for the 29.95 subscription price there. And yeah.... the Mankin GN's are taking WAY too long to come out. I wish SJ would rotate the series out of the mag every once in a while (yeah, I know they are doing this for DBZ, but I wish they would do this with their other titles too.)

They may do it to SK once the TV show ends and the series becomes less popular or is seen as "old".

Well, I don't want them taking anything out. The comics in SJ are all good in their own ways (yes, even hikaru no go). Maybe they could just make the magazine bigger or somethin...

ALL of the manga currently in Jump are really, REALLY long though. Are you saying that you want to be reading these same exactly titles for 10 years or so. Demand variety !

Lovely; if we got that variety, it'd still take forever. At least now we have a few stories to take care of...... by the way, don't you think Neji's and Gaara's teams are coolest?

How far are they in Shonen Jump now?
I wish they would release volume 6 faster....
