AH! Thank you ANN. I was really wondering why you never post anything about these free chapters whenever a new series start! Like a month ago they had like 4 series up and no article was made for it. I hope coverage on these new series previews will continue.

Also, I do not know if it is news worthy enough to mention in these articles, but whenever they upload new series previews they also provide accompanying downloadable wallpaper for the series as long as the first chapter remains up.

The reason is most likely that these newer series in Shonen Jump tend to get cancelled REALLY quickly, so it;s not really worth mentioning if the series's survival isn;t a gurantee

Ehh. Not typical shonen, but very typical at the same time. I had high expectations but it turns out to be like Twin Spica but nowhere near as meaningful.

I thought it was kind of cute, even if the characters were a bit flat. I also hope the main is actually smart (besides his weird magic sense) but just an airhead because otherwise it would be a bit wierd if he became an astronaut. (Puting aside the weirdness of 15 year olds being trained to be astronauts and everyone just accepting we got a message from space and there being no mention about people being scared the aliens might want to kill them.)

This looks like it could be fun. Also that kids dad was just too cringey for words. Urgh.
