Manga Magazines

Manga series run for many years if they are successful. Manga magazines usually have many series running concurrently with approximately 20–40 pages to each series per issue. Magazines such as the anime fandom magazine features single chapters within their monthly periodicals. These manga magazines or anthology magazines as they are also known colloquially phone books are usually printed on low-quality newsprint. The number of pages in such magazines can be anywhere from 200 to more than 850.. Manga magazines contain one shot comics and various four-panel Yonkoma, equivalent to comic strips. Manga artists start out with a one-shot manga projects just to try to get their name out. If these are successful and receive good reviews, they will continue to grow into largescale.
