History

Olive started publication in May, 1982. It was launched by by Heibon Publishing Co., Ltd. (平凡出版株式会社), currently known as Magazine House (マガジンハウス), as a sister magazine to the men’s magazine Popeye, and aimed at a college audience.[1] The magazine went by the slogan “Magazine For City Girls”.[2]

Two supplemental issues to Popeye were published prior to November 5, 1981 before Olive became a stand alone magazine.[1] In 1983, Olive became independent of Popeye, and changed their slogan to “Magazine for Romantic Girls“. The magazine was published bi-weekly on the 3rd and the 18th of each month. At this point, they changed their focus more to the romanticized lifestyle of the "lycéenne", or female french student.[3]

The magazine went out of print most recently in 2003, though that was a revival printing after an earlier hiatus with the former last issue being July 18, 2000.[4] Olive is still revived periodically as an appendix to Magazine House magazines, so it's difficult to define the true ending date. [1]

In 2014, it was revived as part of the special feature "Let's read fashion magazines" in the June issue of Magazine House's fashion magazine "GINZA" where it consisted of about 10 pages designed to be like the 2014 version of "Olive" as envisioned by stylist Yuko Omori. [5]
