Margaret (マーガレット, Māgaretto) is a biweekly Japanese shōjo manga magazine published by Shueisha, primarily for girls from 11 to 15 years old, although some stories are read by adult women.

History

Margaret was first released as a weekly magazine in 1963.[3][4] When manga serialized in Margaret are collected into tankōbon volumes, they are imprinted by Shueisha under their Margaret Comics imprint. Series from the sister publication Bessatsu Margaret are also under the Margaret Comics imprint. Margaret is published on the 5th and the 20th of each month since 1988.[5]

In 2009, the circulation was 154,584.[6] Circulation went down to 95,044 in 2010.[7] They adopted English for its title logo in 1988 from Māgaretto (マーガレット) to Margaret, then back to Māgaretto (マーガレット) in 1990.[5] As of 2016, the title is written as マ➰ガレット, which is published as an e-magazine as well.[8]
