Jump X Magazine Suspends Publication in October

The staff of Shueisha's Jump X (read as Jump Kai) magazine posted an announcement on its official website on Tuesday, stating that the magazine's publication will be suspended as of the November issue, which is scheduled to be released on October 10. The staff listed the reason for the magazine's suspension as the change of environment surrounding manga for youth, and added that Shueisha will focus on creating new manga for youth in its other magazine Weekly Young Jump.
