Hello everyone! Could you please tell me what are the anime and manga magazines that are available and how can I get them? I don't know many... I see that there are many scans of Megami Magazine in Minitokyo... Is this the most famous? It sorts out every month? How can I buy it? What other maganizes are there? In what languages? What do they offer (posters, exclusive drawings, a cd with anime music and videos)? here in Portugal there aren't many available. I just know and have bought four magazines, called Minami, Shirase, Dokan & Anitype. Anitype is the best one, with the most recent series. The others focus more on the classics, like Rurouni Kenshin, Sailor Moon, Digimon, Slayers, Neon Genesis Evangelion, etc...
Thanks for your help!

If you were based in the U.S. I would've recommended signing up for TokyoPop's Takuhaionline (I'm not sure if they ship out to Portugal). It's a free manga preview mangazine sent out every season or so (~3 months) for both freshly translated to English series, and up and coming U.S. manga style artists. The website also has a manga preview section but I doubt that will satisfy you enough.

For other magazines I'm at a loss, as manga volumes are expensive enough as it is that there's little left that I (a poor college bum) can spare for a magazine.

um, I'm not sure where you are, but sometimes I can get my friends to share their magazines with me. Usually, there's a lot of Newtype and Newtype USA, with a small sprinkling of Animedia and Animage for good measure. :D

You can just click on their name to see their Member page. Scroll the page down and look to the left. Right below Personal info, you should see their Age, Gender, and Location.

I don't know how popular Megami Magazine really is, but its a Japanese mag I would recommend if you mostly like female anime characters. It comes with several fold out posters and sometimes it would also have free goodies like trading cards or pencil boards. The mag pretty much keeps up to date on what's new in the anime world in Japan. This is one of the sites that carry it.
