■ Product Supplementary Explanation ■
"Gekkan Playboy" (Monthly Playboy) was a magazine that previously translated and re-edited the American adult magazine "Playboy" for the Japanese market.
It is also known as the Japanese edition of PLAYBOY.
It was launched by Shueisha in May 1975 as the "July issue."
The publisher was Masashi Wakanashi, and the editor was Tamotsu Okada.
It also featured substantial reading material, such as non-fiction by Norman Mailer and novels by John Collier.
It directly imported and published nude photos of "Playmates," the exclusive models of "Playboy."
Even before nude photography was permitted in Japan (around 1990), it continued to publish them, albeit with some processing and editing.
Apart from the gravure sections, the Japanese edition had strong original content, including novels, columns, and interview articles.
Kazuhiko Torishima, who joined Shueisha aiming to become an editor for this magazine, stated, "The content, including the promotional strategy, was very interesting."
The stylish page design and sophisticated articles had a significant influence, and since its launch, numerous adult visual magazines mimicking Monthly Playboy were published.
