"Concent," a locally-focused web magazine set in Koenji, launched on the 20th. It's run by Yamato Actus, a real estate company in the area. The magazine aims to promote the charms of Koenji and help people recognize it not just as a place to play, but as a place to live. Starting with the main "Koenji Special Feature," updated twice a month, the magazine offers 12 content sections divided into categories such as living, working, eating, and learning. Writers active in the Koenji area submit unique articles from a variety of perspectives, from serious to humorous. The theme of the first Koenji Special Feature is "Is Koenji Really Japan's India?" We explore why Koenji is called Japan's India by walking around the area and listening to the sounds of an Indian street. The article also features "The Sounds of Indian Crowds," which allows readers to experience the Indian atmosphere while strolling around Koenji. Other articles include articles rooted in the local area, ranging from Koenji restaurants to couples' snapshots.

Koenji is home to many second-hand clothing stores, including those in the Kitakore Building, creating a unique fashion culture.
