PULP
PULP was an North American-based, monthly manga magazine, published by Viz Media. Unlike the other manga magazines at the time, such as Viz's Animerica Extra and Tokyopop's MixxZine and Smile, the magazine was aimed towards a mature audience. The magazine contained a variety of seinen series: some horror, some with strong sexual themes, and also some violent series. The first issue hit shelfs in 1997.
In 2002, the magazine was cancelled. The last issue hit shelfs in August, leaving many of the series unfinished. Yoshida Akimi's Banana Fish moved to Animerica Extra, where it ran until the magazine was cancelled in 2004. Its other series all finished in graphic novel-only format.
