Young Prince!, also known as Waka Ōji-sama!, is an art zine dedicated to characters voiced or dubbed by voice actor Mamoru Miyano. The zine is part of a series dedicated to Japanese voice actors including Reverence: A Romi Park Tribute Zine, Pretty Bad Boys!: A Takahiro Sakurai Tribute Zine, and My Man!!: A Junichi Suwabe Tribute Zine.

About

This book is an indulgent gift for all our preteen selves and I'm so happy it's finally here. A huge thank you to the friends who made it possible! EVERYTHING is printed on shimmery wedding paper (even the interior pages) so each boy sparkles in the sunlight.😄🌟[1]

On July 23, 2019, Twitter artist andythelemon promised that if the tribute zine for Tatsuhiro Sakurai was sufficiently funded, then a zine dedicated to Mamoru Miyano could be made as a sequel[2].

Preorders for a physical edition opened on December 14, 2019 to January 15, 2020[3]. These preorders included a pack of postcard prints and sticker. Digital copies continued to be sold in limited quantities afterwards.

On April 29, 2020, andythelemon posted that the $600 USD made from both the Young Prince! and Recollection 回憶 zines were donated to the UK chapter of Make-A-Wish Foundation[4].

The success of Young Prince! led to the creation of more tribute zines for voice actors including Reverence: A Romi Park Tribute Zine in the following year.
