フィールヤング is a monthly josei manga magazine published by Shodensha in Japan. Mangaka whose stories have run in the magazine include Moyoco Anno, Mitsue Aoki, Mitsukazu Mihara, Kiriko Nananan, Mari Okazaki, Erica Sakurazawa, Ebine Yamaji, and others.
Profile and relevance
The magazine was first published in 1989. When the magazine emerged in the late 1980s, it was part of a new wave of josei magazines like
Young Rose and
Cutie Comics, publishing manga like the ones of
Kyoko Okazaki that distanced themselves from the soap-opera "Ladies Comics" of the 1980s and kept more elements of shōjo manga in their style.
explains that the magazine is considered more artsy and progressive than other josei magazines like the more conservative You or the more mainstream Chorus.
Some women who got works published in the artistic manga magazine
Garo, like Erica Sakurazawa, Kiriko Nananan and
Shungicu Uchida, published their works also in
Feel Young. The manga artist
Milk Morizono described that she felt like her work was sometimes out of place, because it was too dark for the light pages of the magazine.
In 1995, it had a circulation of 250,000, in the following year 150,000.
In 2024, a website counterpart called Our Feel was launched.
