Melody is a manga magazine, featuring various different shoujo and josei manga. It caters to a slightly older female demographic. Every even-numbered month, they release a new volume housing the latest chapters of all their ongoing manga. This is a brand new manga magazine for me—I only discovered it today!
The majority of series in this magazine give of a more retro manga vibe. While they are all currently ongoing series, they give off nostalgic feelings.
This volume can be purchased digitally here.
Please remember this is a Japanese manga magazine—that means there is absolutely no English in it.
