New movies, manga, games and merchandise are introduced during this event. The tradition is that of already existing material a special item or episode is produced and presented at the convention to prove the makers aren't out of ideas and to experiment. Manga-ka of popular current and former Jump series are often on hand, and many of them have panels where they answer questions.

Although the event is focused around Shonen Jump, there are often events for many other anime and video game franchises, as well. The Japanese game company Square-Enix often debuts trailers of its upcoming video games.
