We Love Magazines with Free Stuff (Omake) + J-List Spring Sale

Japan has figured out how to save the publishing industry: just give cool free stuff to readers! Many of the best anime, manga, game and fashion magazines that J-List carries are famous for giving out rare goods, called omake (oh-mah-kay) in Japanese, and we think it's a great practice since it makes buying that magazine something really special. Some magazines give huge numbers of original anime posters, like NyanType and Megami Magazine, while other magazines give you great anime pencil boards, document protectors or even figures. Often books or magazines are entirely built around the idea of giving cool stuff to fans, like the Love Plus artbook box that's are loaded with cool collectibles, or the new Kagaboo manga + figure set.

Announcing the J-List Spring Sale! For the next week, we'll send you a store credit worth $5 for every $100 you spend for your next purchase. It gives you a good excuse to throw an extra few Kit Kats or a case of your favorite Japanese gum to your cart if you're only a few dollars under the next $100 amount. The gift codes never expire and can be used any time. Celebrating Spring with J-List!
