Tokage

I don't know how i would react if i was a fan of these magazines, but i never take magazine because i can't read Japanese. Anyway, i can find most informations about releases and photos online, and magazines i received were always only promotional for other bands. So i just always take a quick look for kawaii photos to scan ^w^ or for new bands, but i couldn't actually read the magazines. But i think it's like newspapers, even in 2016, some people will always prefer their things on paper instead of online sources only.

I think a lot of it is the nostalgia as well? Like a lot of us grew up/went through those angsty years with SHOXX. I honestly thought SHOXX would be around for a long time, so it's kind of shocking and makes me remember "the good ol' times" lol 

Plus I'm just one of those people who prefer paper to electronic T^T

^Afterall, it's not really different than prefering CD more than buying download (from iTunes). Having an item in hands is different than seeing something on screen, and it can have this collector feel too.
