Though Weekly Shonen Jump has been missing for more than four years, it didn’t take much for it to become one of the industry’s most popular series again, once again demonstrating the exceptional level of narrative that characterizes the master’s style.
Just to honor the mangaka who was forced to work standing due to his past spending excessive hours drawing sitting down, causing him the serious health issues behind the countless hiatus in the series, Manga Taizen magazine dedicated a special to him.
