Asuka (あすか), formerly Monthly Asuka (月刊あすか, Gekkan Asuka),[2] is a bimonthly Japanese shōjo manga magazine published by Kadokawa Shoten, aimed at teenage girls. The magazine was established in 1985.[3] Much like its sibling publication Shōnen Ace, it places some emphasis on anime tie-ins and spinoffs. Asuka is released on the 24th of every odd-numbered month. Manga serialized in Asuka are published in tankōbon format under the Asuka Comics imprint.
