History

On April 7, 2014, Admin. Rin" released his Mini comic album about Fairytail's comeback (2014) hoping to make it popular he and Deiji-chan, his co-admin at ANIME Forever decides to make a Minizine. Without knowing that it will be a big project both of them made an event called AF MEME Contest hosted by ANIME Forever. A week after the MEME Contest, Kawachii Neko, an admin as well started a drawing contest, both the MEME and Drawing contest only aims to make the magazine known. Using the events by promising to publish the winners on their magazine, both the contests are successful. Two weeks after, the plan/project was changed and made it larger the admins decid to make it a magazine rather having a minizine only. Inspired by his co-admin Tanzoe, Admin. Rin" gathered aspiring otakus around the world to join the team that will create the very first Official Free Digital Anime Magazine called Forezine. Together by just trusting their own abilities to create a magazine without thinking about fame and money, the team worked hard and paid-off by getting lots of sponsors that gave them privileges to expose on conventions, like the Pinoy Otaku Festival held in Alabang, Starmall Philippines organized by Naruto Cosplayers PH gave them their big break to launch the said magazine to a bigger chance of recognition.^[2]
