Thinner than the defunct Newtype USA/PiQ, but yes it's worth buying. Great artwork and layout. Good insider stories and commentaries. News on even j-pop and games, and old school anime. They look into what's coming, what's hot, and even what's being currently aired in Japan (and therefore being subbed).
Right now the March 2009 issue has D-Grayman on the cover. Yes, they even spelled
Ogasawara correctly.
OBTW, getting AI was real damn hard: two days and I covered six malls across the city just to buy it because of what's inside:
I presume this is the last copy of this issue -- literally a collector's item -- existing in the Philippines, as it's found only in a comic bookstore called Comic Quest.
