Viz does the time warp with Bleach and Naruto

In preparation for the launch of Shonen Jump Alpha, which will lag the Japanese Shonen Jump by just two weeks, Viz is ramping up their digital releases of the six affected series, releasing new volumes of Naruto and Bleach digitally ahead of print. I discuss the Naruto changes a bit at MTV Geek, and Deb Aoki has the details on Bleach, which include skipping ahead to a new story arc, at About.com.

The Manga Bookshelf bloggers discuss their Pick of the Week, and the Manga Village team checks out the best of the past week’s new releases.

The Manga Moveable Feast continues at Manga Widget, where your host Alex Hoffman, rounds up all the Day One posts on Natsume Ono.

With Thanksgiving just around the corner, publishers are starting to put out suggested gift guides; Lissa Pattollo runs the Viz gift guide at Kuriousity.

Three Steps Over Japan continues its look at Japanese manga magazines with a peek at Morning Tsu, a spinoff of Weekly Morning.
