Feel free to discuss anything about the Shojo Beat magazine. We could even discuss each issue as it's released!

My subscription just ended. </3 But, I'm subscribing again, and buying them in a book store in the mean time. =]

I liked NANA and Vampire Knight.
Basically, I love everything in that magazine. x3

I've been getting them for somewhere around half a year. I really like Nana and absolute boyfriend. The new dream shoppe manga they added is adorable as well. I definitely intend to purchase the first volume when it comes out. Also, they convinced me to buy Gentlemen's alliance cross.

The only down side is their "get the look" section is generally disappointing... To me at least.

subscribed you bet ^.^
What are your favourite manga that Shojo Beat shows? Absolute boyfriend Vampire Knight Yume Kira Dream shoppe
What are your favourite articles they post? umm i dont know
Have you ever sent in fanart? If so was it ever published? nope never sent in any fan art
Have you ever entered or won any of their contests? enter yes, won no im never lucky :?
[ i dont know if is just me but does any one read baby & me? i;ve heard that alot of people dont read it. i dont. ]

I haven't read the baby & me one... The art isn't very appealing to me and I don't have an old enough issue to start at chapter 1 for it. ^.^;

Hmmm..... Well me and my cousin are subscribed to Shojo Beat, but mine is a gift subscripition frommy Aunt. <3
Let's see.... Nana and Crimson are my faverites I guess.

My faverite articles in the Magazine is where they tell you how to dress like the cover girl or cover chibi. >///<

Well, I haven't entered any art contests....well not yet....
I just started reading it, but I've read a few of my cousin's
magaizines before...

Of course I'm subscribed!

I love NANA, but then it's a tie between Crimson Hero and Vampire Knight.

(I've read scanlations up to volume 5 for VK, and it is AMAZING.)

Ah! We don't get the magazines down here in Australia, so I just buy the seperate volumes.


I have...


NANA
Ultra Maniac
Meru Puri
Full Moon
Fushigi Yugi: Genbu Kaiden
Absolute Boyfriend
La Corda D'Oro
Vampire Knight
Beauty Is The Beast
Beauty Pop
Skip Beat!




NANA is a huge favourite, because NANA is awesome. But my current favourite right now is La Corda D'Oro becaue I have absolutely NO idea who Kahoko will end up with!

• I've always had an interest in ShojoBeat, but only because a friend of mine had a subscription, and I only got to read it every now and then, 'cause she rarely had it with her at school. But I've become a NewType magazine owner because it covers everything. I feel that if I went to strictly ShojoBeat that I'd revert to how I was before I had a boyfriend. xDD;;

I read Back Stage prince and adored it so much. <333


AUGH. I want to subscribe. But I'm always broke. x]

My favorite series is probably Nana.

My NANA watch got stolen/lost. It was so cool. T:

How long has Shojo Beat been out?

I buy Shounen Jump but I just recently found out about Shojo Beat.

I know I'm a guy, but I like to read Shojo manga's because of how adorable they've been drawn. Some are alot nice than Shounen manga's. Like Card Captors Sakura. I love it just because of how beautiful it is. :nod:

What are your favourite manga that Shojo Beat shows?
Hmm, this is a hard one. Right now, when I open my magazine I rushe to see what happens on Crimson Hero, NANA and Vampire Night. I loved Backstage Prince but it only lasted a few issues. But the one I've never even read is Baby and me.

What are your favourite articles they post?
I like the culture section and seing at what's 'sot' right now.

Nope, I don't have time to do fanart T__T

Have you ever entered or won any of their contests?
No T___T Where I live we aren't 'elegible' pttf <.<

Wow, every issue? That's impressive ^.^

Not eligible to win?! That's horrible... I'd be mad. I enter every contest haha... I've never won though...

I want to send in fanart... One day I will!

the only time i've picked up one of the shojo beat magazines is when they were previewing Millennium Snow. and the only shojo beat manga i own is Millennium Snow and Ouran High School Host Club. i've never been a huge shojo fan, but Bisco Hatori has some amazing talent...

What are your favourite manga that Shojo Beat shows?
Nana ;D

What are your favourite articles they post?
idk ^^

Have you ever sent in fanart? If so was it ever published?
lolz i wish but i ran out of envelopes

Have you ever entered or won any of their contests?
nope -_-

I don't like it much. I bought an issue waaay back last year, and there was only one manga I enjoyed, much less was willing to buy in a volume.
I bought Ouran High School Host Club one the urging of a friend last year and it was alright, but not fantastic.
I didn't even enjoy Nana that much.

You must either be terribly picky or not like shoujo genre manga. Perhaps you'd prefer shounen genre manga?

I love shoujo :p
I am kind of picky about what I read, though. I don't have a lot of money for manga so I'm really careful with what I buy.
