I found out Shonen Jump titles are raising up starting October!
Shonen: 7.95>9.99
Shojo: 8.99>9.99
this may affect my wallet because i read shonen! about a 25% increase!

Well, I don't really buy Jump (FREE SCANLATIONS), but they probably have a good reason for doing it.

You know what's funny? A year ago, I found a picture of a group of soldiers saluting and behind them was a flag with the Jump Pirate on it. But now I can't find it. It would have been a perfect replying pic to what you typed.

No. I guarantee you that it's related to what they can afford relative to printing costs and the economic recession. Price hikes in this industry are generally a bad sign for a company's well-being.

Well, it's a business so they need to earn a certain % of profits to keep the shareholders happy. 
Pissed-off shareholders/investors = possible change of owner's hands

Shonen Jump was always good because at least it wasn't 10 like the rest of em... oh well, Jump manga will still be on top no matter what the price lol
