Austria: EUR 4.40
Switserland: SFR 7,60
Benelux: EUR 4,60
Italy: EUR 5,20
Spain: EUR 5,20

haha nice one xD

Why did it use this picture? The other three covers look better than this.

Thanks for the scan!

So, is Ayu popular in Germany?
(not in the Netherlands obviously)

Benelux?! Argh, I went to the Readshop (bookstore) today but I searched and I couldn't find it.
€4,60 is pretty expensive though. I wish I had it.

:raincloud australia never gets anything interesting

woo.. it's great they use ayu's face for magazine's cover

That's because you're so far away! You and New Zealand should push yourselves closer and join the party :P

yeah, I´ve got one ^^ The poster is great O_O

Yeah, we don't have cool things like that in our country. They are too busy writing about our politics (Brussel-Halle-Vilvoorde) :dead2, our politicians:dead2 and our prime minister (Yves Leterme) :dead2. And when they don't write about that, they spread rumors (Tom Boonen is a junky, K3 stops singing, ...) :irked. I even send some e-mails to magazines when Ayu, the Japanese popstar, was in Paris, but they ignored it. Asia never appears in magazines or journals, except when something really bad happens (typhoon, sunami, earth-quake):irked.

that's so awesome!

Same here in the Netherlands.

Though Rody! said you could also buy this magazine in the Benelux (Belgium, Netherlands and Luxembourg.)

EDIT: Does this magazine also have a site?

No.. she isn't. She is only known for people, who are interessted in Japan.. oder maybee in Mangas.
But... most people, who don't has interesst in it.. don't know her.
This Magazine is made for younger people.. in my oppinion. Most of these younger People became interessted in Japan, because of reading Mangas and watching Anime.
They wanted to get to know more about Japan.. and so.. they also got to know Ayu.

And... the most of the other.. don't know her. Sure.. some do know her.
But.. if I telling someone, I listen to Ayu's Music.. nowbody knows her.

^your lucky! I picked up my one and only copy of SCawaii last month when I went to LA - Little Tokyo. ~The Faith of Ayumi Hamasaki~ I was happy! But I got kinda mad when one of the guys working there said 'she looks high'...I said 'hey man, that's my favorite Japanese singer, and she's NOT high!'...:eviltongu

Lol actually Germany is closer to me than to him :P Unless he lives more to the east than me, I kind of forgot the city XD

What about America?? We're so isolated. :weep

It's cool to see she's the cover of a German magazine.

Does this German magazine also have a website?

Ooh cool, wish SIngapore would have Ayu as covers. ugh.

wow.. that's a nice cover for the magazine. =)
