<!--

  • Do not add a magazine that does not already have an article. *
  • Write the article on a given subject BEFORE (WP:WTAF) adding a link to the article to list pages. *

-->

<!--All dates provided are by year as each magazine differs by how it is released. Some magazines that continue to be released have switched to online publishing only. Remember, just because a manga magazine exists does not mean it is notable.-->

This is a list of notable manga magazines or published in Japan. The majority of manga magazines are categorized into one of five demographics, which correspond to the age and gender of their readership:

  • Kodomo – aimed at young children.
  • Shōnen – aimed at boys.
  • Shōjo – aimed at girls.
  • Seinen – aimed at young adult men.
  • Josei – aimed at young adult women.

Some entries are listed as "Mixed", indicating that they are aimed at an audience of both girls and boys. For magazines that do not correspond to one of the five demographics, their primary genre is listed.
