    Hardcopy manga books are sold as volumes, yeah? One specific manga. Quite a few chapters per.

    The magazine is like. All kinds of manga. 1 chapter each per week, the latest chapter, yeah?

    It should be.. If you have something specific to read, buy volumes. If you like all manga, keep current with the magazine.

    For the record, Viz's shonen jump does not have all the same content as Japan's, at all, and fewer individual series running in it to boot.
