Fanc a trip to a not-so-secret but hitherto inaccessible part of Japan?

Pick up your ticket now at a 7-Eleven near you. For 880 yen, you can buy the first English-language monthly manga comic book in Japan and go on a journey into the minds of Japan's urban artists on the edge.

Raijin Comics is an anthology of popular Japanese manga, re-released in English for the U.S. market. The edition available in Japan is bilingual -- targeting Japanese looking to improve their English over a bit of light entertainment. But if you're a foreign resident whose manga consumption has until now been restricted to the odd glance over a shoulder on a crowded subway, there's no reason why you shouldn't grab this chance to take a peek.
