In the December issue of Shonen Jump, Viz published chapter 18 of the Ultimo manga. This chapter was titled “Yamato in Trouble.” You can read the first 24 pages of the chapter online at Viz’s website, which can be found here. The entire chapter of Ultimo can be read in the November 2010 issue of Shonen Jump, currently on newsstands in the USA and Canada. You can subscribe online at Amazon, or directly from Viz.
Chapter 18 will be released in Ultimo volume 5 in the US by Viz later in 2011. Volume 5 of Ultimo releases in Japan on November 4th.
In other Viz news, Viz has just recently launched an iPad app to pay and read manga volumes online. Currently none of Takei’s works can be read in the app. When this changes, we will have a news post about it.
I’m sorry, but isn’t there a mistake? It says that the chapter was released in the December issue, but it can be read in the November issue?
Anyway, I’m looking forward to reading the chapter.
Nope, there is no mistake. Viz releases the magazine a month earlier than the actual month. So everything is ahead by a month. And sometime I can get the issue a week or two early, so it can feel like almost like a month and a half early.
Oh, I got it. Thanks a lot!
