Kadokawa Sneaker Bunko
Kadokawa Sneaker Bunko (角川スニーカー文庫, Kadokawa Sunīkā Bunko) is a light novel publishing imprint of the Japanese publishing company Kadokawa Shoten, a division of Kadokawa Corporation. It was established in 1988 and is aimed at a male audience.[1] Some light novels published under this imprint were serialized in Kadokawa Shoten's light novel magazine The Sneaker, which was published between 1993 and 2011.
The Kadokawa Corporation website is currently undergoing emergency maintenance and remained unavailable due to the 2024 cyberattack on Kadokawa and Niconico on June 8, 2024 from a group of hackers called BlackSuit.
