    Something I spotted a few weeks ago (forgot to post it): Shinkansen & Love, a fashion magazine themed on the Shinkansen. Basically, fashions to ride the Shinkansen in. It’s actually well photographed, and is from Infas (Studio Voice).

  • Foreign Magazines Disappear from Japan

    —

    I’ve noticed recently that a lot of foreign magazines were not getting newer issues in a few bookstores, and now I know why (via Japan Probe).

    The current issue of Kateigaho International (20) has a feature on interior design, kicking off with interviews of Simplicity, Super Potato, Masamichi Katayama (Wonderwall), and Akihito Fumita, conducted by the likes of Gelman, Gwenael Nicolas, and Mark Dytham.

    If anyone sees a copy of Amusement, a new French gaming magazine, in Tokyo at a reasonable price, please-please let me know. I really want to pick this up — comes off as Monocle doing games — but buying the issue from their site is close to $40 (to Japan).

    —

    Foreign fans of tabloid journalism in Japan will be quite saddened by the news that The Mainichi Daily News has decided to end the popular WaiWai column. More from Marxy over at META no TAME.
