| Σύντομo Πρόγραμμα Manga 12.04 - Διάλειμμα (τεύχος # 2) 12,11 - 770 (τεύχος # 3) 12,17 - 771 (διπλό τεύχος # 4 & 5) 12.25 - Διάλειμμα 01,01 - 772 (διπλό τεύχος # 6 & 7) 01.08 - Διάλειμμα 01,15 - 773 (τεύχος # 8) Για εκείνους που δεν είναι σαφείς σχετικά με το τι σημαίνει: - Manga Stream έγραψε:
- Every year, Jump has 4 scheduled breaks. These are the approximate times, the specific dates are different every year, naturally.
Issue #04-05 -> third week of December Issue #06-07 -> first week of January Issue #22-23 -> last week of April Issue #36-37 -> first week of August
As you can see, the issues all have a double number, hence why we call them double issues. There's 52 weeks in a year and WSJ is a weekly series, hence every issue is labelled with a number. However, they don't correspond with the actual weeks of the year. WSJ's year begins in December. Don't ask me why.
In order to not break the naming pattern, the issues preceeding a holiday receive two numbers, covering for two weeks effectively, they are what we call double issues. Now, I know it may seem natural to assume that they also must contain two chapters of everything to 'make up' for the lack of Jump in the following week - but that is not so.
This is something that really bothers me when people complain about it. "Why don't they draw a 2nd chapter!" Because it's a lot of work, obviously. It's almost like asking why they don't just draw the whole story in one night and get over with it already. Why? Because they're 'only' human, and already work crazy hours. Because you can't force creativity, and because they also have a right to have some time off with their families. Most fans are completely understanding of this though, which is much appreciated.
So yeah, if it hasn't been clear yet - there's only one chapter in double issues, just like there's only one chapter in regular issues. Besides, if there really were two chapters of every series in Jump for those weeks, the already phone book like shape of the magazine would turn into something that could easily kill you if it fell on your head...
