The layout is terrible and confusing, at least on the WSJ site proper. This page should have all of the back issues, if that's what you mean. There was a bonus OPM chapter in the October 28 (I think this is the one you want) and the most recent, Nov 4 issue.

so there's not going to be any more scanlation site updates? All of it's been licensing locked up?

Ah, I think I see the problem, I'm being auto-directed to the app store page since I'm outside the US. so the only way to get issues is through the app...which makes it impossible to get specific issues because the 'store' consists of the latest one, the banner ad and nothing else... so there's that. Guess I'll just hope that it gets uploaded anyway at this stage, I'm happy to keep a subscription going for future chapters but not being able to buy this one issue is really frustrating.

So because it's now for sale in the US, I can't read it any longer in the UK? And because I'm outside the US I can't even buy it if I wanted to? That's not good.

International Jump is available in the UK. You'll need an Android or iOS device, though: Viz won't do online readers for some dumb reason.

I just hope they do a volume release of OPM, since I prefer to purchase my manga in that format anyway and I still have a few cubic feet in my house not taken up with WSJ volumes.

Dragonatrix posted:Awesome, there's probably some other neat stuff in there. Probably look into it later toda- For some absolutely daft reason, the only place you can buy Viz's stuff digitally in the UK (outside of their Jump iOS and Android apps) is the Nook store. Don't ask me why. Nor should you ask why Viz doesn't make their Reader app and range available over here. At the very least, Nook has been aggressively price-cutting their stuff: you can get a Nook HD for £80, for example. For a sub-£100 tablet, it's pretty good. [Edit] And another thing: why hasn't Viz released OPM in volume form, even digitally? Delusibeta fucked around with this message at 14:27 on Nov 5, 2013 |

We could always read the ONE version, at least until there's a proper option for us. Talking about where to get this version might border on filez now it's buyable. (even though they won't let us buy it)

So what I can find is that there is no way to read (new) OPM unless you subscribe to jump? Did scanlator's just drop off the truck? edit: time to unsubscribe to this thread then. I like this enough to read it, but not enough to pay a single cent for it. Sorry Murata. GreenBuckanneer fucked around with this message at 05:15 on Nov 6, 2013 |

Hmm I don't think so. I checked around one of the scanlator blogs and it's just going to take him a bit longer. Apparently the chapter got delayed in Japan with ONE (the orginal author) explaining why. It got pushed to november.

Stop talking about pirating licensed manga. You aren't being forced to support Murata for making this comic, or buy into Viz's crappy app, but you can at least not break our rather simple rules and not talk about it.

I wish there's a way to send Murata and ONE money to read their works instead of having to deal with this corporate mumbo jumbo as they try to shovel more poo poo we don't want at us.

Another Special Bonus Chapter came out in today's Jump. Saitama get's his toughest job yet, tracking down the cute little Torako. Marvel as a being appears who is actually able to harm the mighty Saitama.

If you sign up for Jump do you also get to read the previous chapters? Or only the ones that come out after you sign up?

RatHat posted:If you sign up for Jump do you also get to read the previous chapters? Or only the ones that come out after you sign up? The latter, sadly, and Viz has yet to start selling the back catalogue anywhere, so you're basically going to have to jump in without knowing what's what or spend a weekend enjoying some  .It's kinda dumb, considering digital manga versions of the older chapters is basically free money for Viz once they get any additional licensing nailed down, especially considering Nisekoi is onto it's sixth digital volume.

You'll genuinely stuggle to find a cup of coffee for less than the £1.91/month it charges for a subscription over here in the UK. For context, 2000AD is £2 a week digitally. Do note that they have caught up with the Japanese release, and hence will be publishing them fortnightly from now on. Delusibeta fucked around with this message at 00:37 on Nov 19, 2013 |

Oh yeah, I forgot about that.  I suppose you have the advantage of, y'know, buying the magazines in question that we (outside of the six or so countries that Viz sells International Jump in, and then only to folks who have tablets) can't (without paying through the nose in shipping).

Yeah the subscription's very cheap and you get One Piece, Naruto, Toriko, color Dragonball Z and OnePunch man (plus a couple of manga I haven't heard of before and have yet to grab me). I'm glad I can finally pay for the English versions!
