Hiroyuki Takei, Shaman King, Jumbor, and Ultimo News Source
This news post was updated on Feb 23rd, 2010, to correct errors about how the puzzle is distributed.
On Feburary 19th in Japan, the Ultra Jump magazine was released featuring Hiroyuki Takei’s latest series, “ユンボル-JUMBOR-”. It is also known as “ユンボル‐JUMBOR‐荒野の床暖房” or literally translated to “Jumbor – Heated Floor in the Wilderness.” “荒野” can mean “wilderness” or “wasteland”, and “床暖房” translates to yukadanbō , or “floor heater.”
This second oneshot is a continuation of his other Jumbor oneshot, which was a sequel to “Jyuki Ningen Jumbor” that ran in Weekly Shonen Jump. Baru is featured on the cover, and the entire oneshot is 27 pages long. New chapters will begin in the July issue of Ultra Jump. The first Jumbor oneshot lists Hiroyuki Takei as the artist and Yuma Miue as the writer. However in this second oneshot, Hiroyuki Takei is listed as the creator, and Hiromasa Mikami is also credited in it’s creation.
In order to promote the series, a free small puzzle was included in all of the issues of Ultra Jump this month. There was also an envelope, which you could use to mail the puzzle to one of your friends. On the back of the puzzle is a small area where you can write a personalized message. The cover of the envelope features a line-art design of the cover of Ultra Jump.
