History

In 2008, an offshoot issue similar to Monthly Shōnen Jump was released called Monthly Young Jump; the magazine was rebranded as Miracle Jump in 2011, and was suspended in 2017.
A spin-off website, titled , debuted on June 14, 2012, starting with Yusuke Murata's remake of One's series One-Punch Man.
