If you love your games and art from Japan, then the Dee Dee Zine is for you. Each month we pack 56 pages of analysis, interview, feature and essay on everything to do with Japanese art, entertainment and culture. The September 2022 issue is no different… in fact, this is one of our biggest yet!
– The philosophy and psychology of the Xeno series – where did Xenoblade Chronicles come from?
– Essays on Ryu Murakami and an introduction to Japanese queer literature.
– Rilakkuma – Japan’s newest soul mascot.
– On the return of Ryza, everyone’s favourite alchemist, for a third game.
– The unique challenges of writing a visual novel.
We also have plenty of puzzles – a crossword to test your knowledge of all things Japan, a sudoku and a nonogram. There’s a comic and story featuring Dee Dee & her friends, as well as a summary of the upcoming games for the month, photography, and more.
Every single page is packed with information, art, and more. Not a single ad nor sponsor in sight – this magazine is purely supported and funded by fans of what we do.
