Jump Square (ジャンプスクエア Janpu Sukuea, written as Jump SQ
but pronounced "Jump Square") is a Japanese monthly shōnen manga
magazine with a circulation of over 300,000. Published by Shueisha, the
magazine premiered on November 2, 2007 as a replacement for Monthly
Shōnen Jump, another manga anthology that Shueisha discontinued in June
of that year. The magazine is a part of the Jump line of magazines. The
manga titles serialized in the magazine are also published in tankōbon
volumes under the Jump Comics label. The manga series within the
magazine target young male readers and tend to be set in a fantasy
setting with a large amount of action scenes. Like all monthly shonen
manga magazines, Monthly Jump Square is aimed at late teens and people
in their early 20s from ages 16 to 21.
