First published in 2001 by Index Communications, the "Gothic &amp; Lolita Bible" is a spin-off of the Japanese fashion magazine "Kera". The founder was Mariko Suzuki. It is a "mook", the combination of a book and magazine. The Japanese musician Mana originally proposed the creation of the "Gothic &amp; Lolita Bible" and along with Kana, a Japanese singer-songwriter, helped to promote the magazine and the Lolita fashion by dressing in the fashion while performing. Essays by Japanese author Takemoto Novala about "the proper behavior and attitudes" of girls also influenced many to join the Lolita fashion and lifestyle. Most of the "Gothic &amp; Lolita Bible" focuses on the Lolita fashion as it is "the more popular of the two fashions".
