Welcome! I'm here to archive some old Shojo Beat magazines given to me by my aunt, as well as any other print media I come across that I'd like to share! This blog is very much inspired by @vgprintads so if you like this blog, go check them out!

Have old magazine or other print media scans you'd like to share? Click the submission button and I'll add it to the queue!

See an article mentioned on a page that's not posted here that you'd like to read? Send an ask for a full scan of it!

For now, I'll be posting on a queue, since I'm scanning them all at once and will only post a few pages at a time to avoid an overwhelm of posts.

The content will be centered on editorials and ads, I will not be scanning manga pages, as I'm sure they have their own archives (+ it would take forever...) and I'm not scanning every page either, just the stuff I find interesting!

Thanks for reading, and I hope you enjoy the blog!

TRANS JOY - Shine, Burn, Scorch, Radiate.

Let your joy Shine through the darkness Let your joy Burn through the hate Let your joy Scorch through all enemies Let your joy Radiate through all space

At this time where it feels like the very sky can fall, and the earth can break into pieces, and the multitudes of suffering cannot end, I implore all of us to not surrender, to not break, to not stop being and becoming ourselves, Truly, Genuinely, and Authentically Trans, for we are Glory and Joy and Resistance incarnate.

Our very existence shines through all the darkness and burn through all the hate and our happiness and joy transforms those who are fighting with us, while our enemies are charred by it, their own hostility becoming a scorching flame that never ends. We are like the Sun, a blessing that radiates throughout all time and space, for our Trans Joy is without end.

Free To Use, Distribute, Whatever.

ps: all transphobes and queerphobic people, and nazis and magas are not allowed to use this, if you do endless misfortune will fall on you.

'Super Fruit Fall'

[WII] [AUSTRALIA] [MAGAZINE] [2007]

"Super Fruitfall is a simple tile matching game. The playing field is a frame which is differently shaped in every level, e.g. sometimes a regular square or a tube. The interior space also features different forms. Fruits are spread out in this frame which the player can rotate either left, right or 180°. Then of course the fruits start falling and if multiple of the same kind touch each other they vanish. The goal of a level is to get rid of every fruit." ~MobyGames

God/Love Poem by Lenore Kandel

Avant Garde Magazine, January 1968

From this archive.

Because of the illustration of two women kissing and the use of the word "cock" I interpret this as a lesbian love poem to a trans woman.

Hello! I saw a post on Reddit about some archiving of Shojo Beat. I was wondering, if you’re still doing scans, would you happen to have the issue that has a chocolate raspberry cake recipe? I believe it was a Vampire Knight themed dessert. Thank you for your time!

Hi! I'm sorry about the late response! I don't seem to have what you're looking for, but I added every similar recipe I have just in case!

Thank you for the ask and I hope you find what you're looking for !

[ageverified]

Awesome thank you for sharing! I'm reblogging here for anyone else who's interested~☆
