When I was a wee lad back in the UK, I had to go to either 1 of 2 Japanese book shops in London to pick up Japanese magazines. They were quite expensive too but were my only gateway to Japanese culture back then without the Internets. A photo of some of the mags I bought at the time in
this post.
These days I usually just read the magazine samples that arrive at the office - everything from fashion, anime, hobby and ones filled with
very cute...girls.
