posted on by Egan Loo
Fusosha's Weekly SPA! magazine has Puella Magi Madoka Magica's title character cosplaying as Mami on its front cover this week, while another major weekly mainstream magazine, AERA, has JoJo's Bizarre Adventure manga creator Hirohiko Araki on its cover.
In the October 23 issue of Weekly SPA! (which actually shipped on Tuesday), Rena Matsui (an idol in AKB48's sister group SKE48), CanCam magazine model Mizuki Yamamoto, photo idol Chiaki Kyan, and other "beautiful girls" explain the anime in the feature "The True Character of Puella Magi Madoka Magica." It will also have an exclusive double-sided Madoka Magica poster.
The October 22 issue of AERA (which actually shipped on Monday) has a feature devoted to Araki. In the interview at the beginning of the issue, Araki describes how he maintains a 10:00 a.m.-to-midnight work schedule with only two hours of break time in between.
