V-Jump (née "Virtual Jump") is a monthly multimedia-focused (video and card games, manga, anime, etc.) magazine published in Japan by Shueisha under the Jump line of magazines. The magazine includes game promotions, news coverage, original manga series, and more. The manga series within the magazine target young male readers and are based on popular video games. The series are often spin-offs of the original anime, manga, and/or video games on which they are based.
V-Jump is currently released on the 21st of each month, barring a Sunday or holiday, in which case the release is moved up to the next-appropriate date. Occasional deviations to this release schedule include coordination to release alongside Jump Festa in December, which may be several days ahead of the standard release date on the 21st.
History
V-Jump began with three issues in a smaller, thicker format on a (roughly) half-yearly schedule released in November 1990, June 1991, and November 1991.
This was followed by an additional four-issue preview/test run in November 1992, February 1993, March 1993, and April 1993.
The inaugural issue of the regular monthly run — the July 1993 issue — was released in May 1993.
Kazuhiko Torishima served as V-Jump's editor-in-chief from 1993 until 1996, at which point he returned to Weekly Shōnen Jump to serve as its new editor-in-chief.[1] Akio Iyoku serves as the magazine's current editor-in-chief.[2]
