Are You a Fan of Shonen Jump Manga? Did you know there’s a website where you can find out which issue of Shonen Jump was released on your birthday? And what manga titles were being serialized at that time?
Website Reveals Which Jump Issue Was Released on Your Birthday
When you visit the site, you’re greeted with the Jump logo and the message: “Find out which issue of Shonen Jump was released on the day you were born.”
You’ll see a button where you can enter your birth date. Since the magazine is released weekly, it’s impossible to match every date perfectly. However, the website finds the issue closest to your birthday.
As shown below, the site has been around since at least 2023, and many otaku have already discovered which Jump issues were released on or near their birthdays.
For example, I entered Neymar’s birthday, which most people probably know—February 5, 1992. Just input the date, and the website shows you the cover of the Jump issue released on or near that day:
As we can see, the Jump issue released on Neymar’s birthday was Shonen Jump Issue 1,192, and the site even lists which manga and chapters were featured in that issue!
We learn that when Neymar was born, JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure was on chapter 253, Dragon Ball was on chapter 357, and Yu Yu Hakusho was on chapter 56, among other major titles.
