Sponsored feature: Hero Organization, one of Shonen Jump+'s current hits, launched in French bookstores this week, marked by a collector's edition of its first two volumes from Glenat Manga at 15.80 euros, including both volumes plus a bookplate and a themed pen-light (both volumes also sold individually). Launched in Japan in 2024 on Shonen Jump+ (six volumes so far), it's written by Kei Saikawa and drawn by Akira Takahashi. Set in a near future where humanity has expanded into space and faces a new alien threat, the 'star beasts,' the story follows Ryu Tyler, who becomes a Hero Organization pilot both to fight back and to be a hero his son can look up to — a mecha story steeped in early-2000s style, full of giant robots, betrayals, and political intrigue.
