Abumento あぶめんと
Six-issue SM magazine of 1970 made by Suma Toshiyuki, Muku Yōji and Iida Toyoichi after they left Kubo Shoten, issued through their Abu Production.
Abumento was a short-lived SM magazine produced in 1970 by three people who had worked together on Uramado and Suspense Magazine at Kubo Shoten: the editor and illustrator Suma Toshiyuki (Minomura Kō), the illustrator Muku Yōji, whom Japanese Wikipedia describes as a painter of bondage pictures, and the writer Iida Toyoichi (Nureki Chimuo).
The historian Kawahara Azumi’s chronology of Iida’s career records that the three left Kubo Shoten in 1969 and that in 1970 they set up Abu Production with Suma as president. The magazine’s first issue appeared on April 1, 1970, and the last in September of the same year, after six issues, when the company was dissolved. Japanese Wikipedia’s article on Suma also lists the magazine among his projects.
Kawahara notes that Suma was free to help a new magazine soon after Abumento closed: the founding staff of SM Select at Tokyo Sanseisha asked him to tie for its bondage photo shoots. Kawahara also observes that Iida, when he later wrote about the period, said much more about Kitan Club, where he was only a contributor, than about the magazines he edited himself, Abumento among them.
