Buy AneCan at Amazon Japan (English on product page)

AneCan was first launched in March 2007 as the magazine for women who have “graduated” from reading CanCam. ‘Ane’ means ‘older sister’ and ‘Can’ comes from ‘CanCam’.

Amazingly, AneCam worked together with department stores and apparel makers to create a completely new market. Arpege created JUSGLITTY, Renown Glasieux, World Jewel, to name just a few. Japan’s department store chain Isetan even created a special exhibition of six AneCan brands and within a week sold merchandise worth JPY 35 million (USD 293,700).

CanCam has a circulation of 320,000 and is published by Shogakukan

IMPORTANT: Overseas shipping from Amazon Japan is reliable and quick (other Amazon sites ship Japanese magazines by sea, so orders take up to half a year to arrive!), but incredibly expensive. We advice you to buy quite a few magazines at the same time, or share an order with friends or colleagues.
