Newtype USA to Cease Publication

AD Vision has revealed that Newtype USA Magazine, which will cease publication with its February issue, will be replaced by a new magazine titled "PiQ," which will cover, "anime, manga, videogames, comics, movies, TV, digital media, high-tech gadgets, and more." According to ADV, the discontinuation of Newtype USA Magazine, "is not a reflection on the quality of the magazine or its success in the marketplace. The decision to sunset Newtype was made at the executive level due to a difference in strategic corporate needs between the licensor [Kadokawa Shoten] and Newtype USA's parent company [ADV]."

LOL that is the Politically correct way for them to LIE about the reasons they are doing this.. man it is sad but anime is Falling fast in america's public intrest and ADV is probably doing this as a Last ditch effort to gain new subscribers for the magazine by puting other things than Anime in the magazine... Sounds Bad to me [nono]
