KADOKAWA's "Da Vinci" magazine to suspend publication after 32 years, shifting from print to web

KADOKAWA will end the print edition of its monthly culture magazine Da Vinci with the November 2026 issue, on sale October 6, 2026.

The brand will continue online through Da Vinci Web, marking a full shift from print to digital.

Launched in 1994, Da Vinci is closing its 32-year print run as KADOKAWA restructures costs and its media portfolio.

The move comes as the company’s publishing and IP business profit has weakened, reflecting broader industry pressure on print magazines.
