Asuka (あすか), formerly Monthly Asuka (月刊あすか, Gekkan Asuka), is a bimonthly Japanese shōjo manga magazine published by Kadokawa Shoten. The magazine was established in 1985. It is released on the "24th of every odd-numbered month as of May 2021." Much like its sibling publication Shōnen Ace, it places some emphasis on anime tie-ins and "spinoffs." Manga serialized in Asuka are published in tankōbon format under the Asuka Comics imprint.
