		In Shonen Knife's songs, life's a carnival of candies and kitties, Barbie dolls and pretty boys.
		Kurt Cobain loved Shonen Knife for their "honesty," and it's safe to guess that the 20-plus bands who contributed to the '89 tribute disc Every Band Has a Shonen Knife Who Loves Them (Gasatanka/Giant) did too.
		In a way, "Fruits and Vegetables" is Shonen Knife pared down to their essence: the spiritual sustenance, the joy, that comes from mundane pleasures (and, hey, studies do show that food affects mood).

	BorderWalker -- The Online Comics Magazine -- Fantasy, Adventure, and Comedy. Published by Menagerie Publications.
		For the benefit of others, SHONEN JUMP is the American version of an extremely popular Japanese manga anthology called WEEKLY SHONEN JUMP, which has been published for decades in Japan and has long served as an example of the best in manga and the writer/artists who create it.
		Shonen manga is one of the most popular demographics with fans of all ages and both genders.
		SHONEN JUMP also adds American sound effects instead of keeping the previous Japanese ones...this is a minor quibble but doesn't take away from the overall enjoyment of this magazine.

	Anime News Network - Special review (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
		Because SHONEN JUMP is doing what American comic publishers should be doing to increase comic book readership: offering your audience a bunch of cheap, fun, disposable entertainment at a reasonable price point.
		Overall: I felt this issue of SHONEN JUMP was a bit weaker than the previous two.
		So even if some of the series in SHONEN JUMP are beginning to feel a bit too familiar already, it might be worth sticking around to see what's in store.

	Boston.com / A&E / Music / Shonen Knife makes its point with positive punk
		The band began in Osaka when sisters Naoko and Atsuko Yamano, along with Michie Nakatani, began playing instruments to emulate their American and British rock heroes and to alleviate the boredom of their office jobs.
		While Yamano's father may have initially objected, a large number of prominent American and British musicians fell in love with Shonen Knife's music, and in turn introduced the band to Western audiences.
		As the alternative rock and grunge scene gave way to sleeker pop, Shonen Knife found itself traveling from major labels to small, independent labels.

	CMT.com : Shonen Knife : Biography
		Although their records were only available in the U.S. via import, Shonen Knife struck a chord with the underground with a track of theirs appearing on the Sub Pop 100 compilation in 1986.
		With Shonen Knife now the hip band to name drop, the group signed their first major U.S. recording contract with Capitol, resulting in the release of one of their finest (and best-known) albums, 1992's Let's Knife.
		Although they were able to greatly expand their U.S. fan base, the group never obtained the breakthrough success that was expected by many, resulting in Shonen Knife returning to the independents and issuing such further releases as 1997's Brand New Knife, 1998's Happy Hour, and the 2000 Japan-only release Strawberry Sound.

	Sequential Tart: Atsukamashii Onna - Interview - Jason Thompson: Living Out a Shonen Dream (vol V/iss 9/September 2002)
		SHONEN JUMP is going to be 250+ pages for $4.95, compared to the standard single-story comic which is $2.95 (or $1.95, if it's from a big company) for about 32 pages.
		But the comics in SHONEN JUMP are going to be anywhere from 20 to 50 pages in length, on average, and I think that'll be a satisfying enough amount to give readers' their money's worth.
		I seem to be attracted to classic stuff from the '70s, and stuff from the late '80s and early '90s, which was Japan's boom period and the period of my own adolescence, strangely enough, although of course there are lots of modern manga that I enjoy as well.

		Before Shonen Jump, no one had thought to export translated versions of Japanese manga to the U.S. mass market, despite the fact that the genre—characterized by its fanciful stories and earnest, teardrop-faced heroes—has been a favorite in Japan for decades.
		It may have helped that Weekly Shonen Jump's Japanese circulation has declined by half, to about 3.4 million, since the mid-1990s, and the company was looking for new markets.
		Shonen Jump is up against the tried-and-true formula of American comics, which are traditionally based on red-blooded superheroes triumphing over evil in 36 pages or less.
