Despite some strange censorship policies (until just recently, it was one of the only shounen magazines to forbid the depiction of female nipples), its audience tends to skew older with some more mature works and a large portion of its readership falling under the male high school or college student demographic.
ShonenMagazine was insulated with Tezuka for about ten years because of this work.
As a result of this, the ShonenMagazine made a comeback in October 1997, regaining its position as the leader in terms of sales.
Weekly Shonen Jump was launched by Shueisha in 1968, to compete with the already-successful ShonenMagazine and Shonen Sunday.
Dragon Ball Z (the second part of Dragon Ball) was discontinued in the April 2005 Shonen Jump and the last part of the story was serialized in graphic novel form.
Mangas translated by Shonen Jump that are not present in the magazine have fewer edits and are released sooner.
