French Creator NEO's 'Little Monster' to Publish on Shonen Jump+

French creator NEO's one-shot manga Little Monster will publish on Shonen Jump+ on May 21.

The work was first submitted in English to MANGA Plus Creators (MPC). It won the platform's top Monthly Award.

NEO is the first French creator to debut on Shonen Jump+ through the MPC system. The platform has received over 28,000 submissions since its 2022 launch.

Little Monster follows Alice, a fast-food worker whose simple goal is to make everyone she meets smile. Her overwhelming positivity catches the attention of a TV station, leading to an offer to appear on a game show.

An interview with NEO is also published on May 21 on the Jump Rookie! website. The creator is known for his artwork on the series Free Quest, published in France by Pika Edition.

The Japanese version of Little Monster is available on Shonen Jump+. The original English version remains on the MANGA Plus Creators website.
