New Self was a groundbreaking Japanese adult and subculture magazine from the 1970s, blending eroticism, underground literature, and avant-garde photography.
Edited by Akira Suei, it became a platform for provocative artistic expression.
This October 1976 issue features contributions from Nobuyoshi Araki, conceptual artist Yutaka Akiyama, and illustrator Kazuo Kamimura, alongside a mix of writers, performers, and cultural provocateurs. The cover model is Keiko Hara, photographed by Masashi Sugiura.

With its mix of taboo-challenging content and cutting-edge visuals, New Self remains a rare and essential artifact of Japan’s radical publishing scene (along X-magazine JAM and Heaven)
