[kel aka gandy]

Shojo Beat is ceasing publication, this is the last issue of the magazine. Viz will still publish manga volumes on the SB imprint however.

For more info see any of the multiple threads in the guild talking about the end of the magazine.

I own this final issue, along with about four other Shojo Beats. When I heard the news of this final issue, I just about died inside...I can't believe they canceled it, I loved the magazine so much. crying
