==History==
[[File:Weekly Jump August 1 1968.jpg|thumb|Cover of the first issue of Weekly Shonen Jump, released in 1968]]
Weekly Shonen Jump was launched by Shueisha on July 2, 1968 to compete with the already-successful Weekly Shonen Magazine and Weekly Shonen Sunday. The Weekly Shonen Jump's sister publication was a manga magazine called Shonen Book, which was originally a male version of the short-lived shojo manga anthology Shojo Book. Prior to issue 20, Weekly Shonen Jump was originally called simply Shonen Jump as it was originally a semi-weekly magazine. In 1969, Shonen Book ceased publication at which time Shonen Jump became a weekly magazine and a new monthly magazine called Bessatsu Shonen Jump was made to take Shonen Book's place. This magazine was later rebranded as Monthly Shonen Jump before eventually being discontinued and replaced by Jump Square.

===''JoJo's Bizarre Adventure''===
''[[JoJo's Bizarre Adventure]]'' was originally serialized in ''Weekly Shonen Jump'' from 1986{{Ref-Note|First issue was released in stores on December 2, 1986, with a cover date of January 1, 1987 - [http://comicvine.gamespot.com/weekly-shonen-jump-940-no-1-2-1987/4000-509129/ Weekly Shonen Jump #940 - No. 1-2, 1987]}} to 2004. In 2005, the series changed the magazine of its publication to ''[[Ultra Jump]]'' during the run of its seventh installment, ''[[Steel Ball Run]]''. While in ''Weekly Shonen Jump'', the series was published under the tagline {{Nihongo|'''"Romance Horror! -A Crimson Tale-"'''|ロマンホラー!—深紅の秘伝説—|Romanhorā!-Shinku no hi densetsu-}}. The tagline was created by the editorial department at Shueisha, and was included in every chapter up until ''[[Stone Ocean]]''.<ref>{{INT|JoJo Could Have Ended with Part 4 (October 2012)}}</ref>
 
===''Thus Spoke Kishibe Rohan''===
The first episode of ''[[Thus Spoke Kishibe Rohan]]'', ''[[TSKR Episode 16|At a Confessional]]'', was published in ''Weekly Shonen Jump'' on June 24, 1997{{Ref-Note|Cover date of July 7, 1997 - [https://comicvine.gamespot.com/weekly-shonen-jump-1454-no-30-1997/4000-516469/ Weekly Shonen Jump #1454 - No. 30, 1997]}}. It was created under the restriction set by the magazine that it couldn't be related to the ''JoJo's Bizarre Adventure'' series. This was because the editorial department had a strict policy against spin-offs or side stories. As a workaround, Araki made Rohan the narrator of the one-shot.<ref>''[[JOJO A-GO!GO!]]'': Hirohiko Araki</ref> Even after ''JoJo's Bizarre Adventure'' ended serialization in ''Weekly Shonen Jump'', many other episodes of ''Thus Spoke Kishibe Rohan'' would continue to be published in the magazine. This included ''[[TSKR Episode 5|Millionaire Village]]'' in 2012 and ''[[TSKR Episode 6|Poaching Seashore]]'' in 2013. In 2014, ''[[TSKR Episode 4|The Harvest Moon]]'' was also released exclusively through their free online manga service {{W|Shōnen Jump+|Shonen Jump+}}.
