Asuka Ciel

Asuka Ciel (Asuka シエル, Asuka Shieru), at other times just referred to as Ciel (シエル, Shieru), is a Japanese manga and anthology magazine focusing primarily on boys' love works. For a time, it was responsible for serializing the Sekai-ichi Hatsukoi manga.
==Overview==
Asuka Ciel’s first issue was a special edition of monthly Asuka magazine in 1994. It later went on to become its own magazine, releasing on or within a few days of the 30th of odd-numbered months. For the majority of its publication, it was a print magazine, but after the January 2017 issue, it became an exclusively digital publication. It continues to be released in this format as of the last update to this article.
==Ciel Très Très==
Asuka Ciel later went on to spawn Ciel Très Très in 2002, which went on to publish another of Shungiku Nakamura’s series: Junjou Romantica. It was released on the last day of even-numbered months. Its last issue was released in June of 2014, shortly before many of the stories and authors moved their stories to Emerald magazine.
