''[[Shonen Jump]]'' was an English-language [[Shonen]] manga anthology magazine that was published by [[Viz Media]] in the US from January 2003 to March 2012, based on ''Weekly Shonen Jump'', a Japanese magazine which began in July of 1968. It mainly carried translations of manga that first appeared in ''Weekly Shonen Jump''. The magazine introduced many Americans to some great series, such as ''[[Naruto]]'' and ''[[One Piece]]''. According to [[The Other Wiki]], it featured a total of twelve series in its first six years, previews of many others that Viz publishes, and articles on Japanese culture and language. In addition, every issue included anime, manga, and video game reviews as well as tips for various [[Collectible Card Game|card games]] related to manga series, and several times included promotional cards with an issue (some of which were [[Promotional Powerless Pieces of Garbage]]).

In early 2012 Viz closed the doors on ''[[Shonen Jump]]'' to replace it with ''[http://shonenjump.viz.com/ Weekly Shonen Jump Alpha]'', a digital version of the magazine they had announced the prior year. WSJA contains their 6 most popular manga alongside bonus material such as sketches and interviews with the Japanese side of the industry. Issues cost $1 per issue or $26 for a year's subscription.

The original Japanese magazine is [[Trope Namer|practically synonymous]] with works that focus primarily on fighting and action; ''shonen jump'' is often considered to be its own subcategory of ''shonen'' anime and manga.
