Other magazines such as the anime fandom magazine ''[[Newtype]]'' featured single chapters within their monthly periodicals. Other magazines like ''[[Nakayoshi]]'' feature many stories written by many different artists; these magazines, or "anthology magazines", as they are also known (colloquially "phone books"), are usually printed on low-quality newsprint and can be anywhere from 200 to more than 850 pages thick. Manga magazines also contain [[One-shot (comics)|one-shot comics]] and various four-panel {{tlit|ja|[[yonkoma]]}} (equivalent to [[comic strip]]s). Manga series can run for many years if they are successful. Popular shonen magazines include ''[[Weekly Shōnen Jump]]'', ''[[Weekly Shōnen Magazine]]'' and ''[[Weekly Shōnen Sunday]]'' - Popular {{tlit|ja|shōjo}} manga include ''[[Ciao (magazine)|Ciao]]'', ''[[Nakayoshi]]'' and ''[[Ribon]]''. Manga artists sometimes start out with a few "one-shot" manga projects just to try to get their name out. If these are successful and receive good reviews, they are continued. Magazines often have a short life.<ref>{{Harvnb|Schodt|1996|p=101}}</ref>
