Shueisha's Shonen
Jump+ digital platform has announced a summer festival to commemorate
its 10th anniversary. Between August 18 and 28, a

Surprises
for the anniversary
The
festival will not be the only novelty for the anniversary. In July, the launch
of a mobile video game titled Jump+ Jumble Rush was confirmed,
which will arrive on iOS and Android in
autumn 2024.
In
addition, Shueisha revealed that studios such as Wit Studio, Contrail and Production
I.G will adapt some of these one-shots into anime as
part of the commemoration. This initiative reinforces Shonen Jump+'s role as
one of the pillars of the digital manga industry.
A
ten-year journey
Since its
launch in late 2014, Shonen Jump+ has established itself as a
key platform for new generations of authors and readers. In August 2024, MANGA
Plus confirmed that it will begin simultaneously publishing all one-shots released
on the Japanese service in English, further expanding the global reach of these
stories.
