May 2016 Update

In addition to working on new releases, we've also been preparing for the second edition of PuniKano. This is nowhere near a complete overhaul like with the update of Renai Sample, and a lot of the changes has to do with improving the look of the physical edition—we had still not printed a book by the time this was released.

We plan on updating the digital version in the next few weeks, and as per usual, you won't have to do anything extra if you already own the book. You'll automatically gain access to it as soon as the update goes live. We'll have more information about the reprint date in the future.

[color=#9D0A0A]Book Releases in May[/color]

Our first release of May is going to be After School Vanilla by Key! If you've read any of the magazine chapters, you know that Key has a very clean style without a lot of sound effects or moans, and it's not unusual for pages to have little to no dialogue on them. Many of the emotions are instead conveyed through the art itself.

Is a picture worth more than a thousand words? Find out in early May.


Let's Do It is a book we announced less than a month ago, but you only need to wait one more month before you can get your hands on the debut work from saitom—which was one of the most popular titles of 2015! Similarly to Key's first book, this one tries to do more with less, and very much succeeds in doing so in my opinion. This opinion is also shared by Gen Urobuchi of Nitroplus, who said the following about the book: "Stylishly clean with a realistic feel. A superbly balanced ero manga!"

During the announcement I mentioned that saitom was the one who approached us about publishing their book, and while it's still too soon to reveal any real information, let's just say they're interested in further collaborations. For the time being, you can look forward to saitom's book coming out toward the end of May.

The next two releases are must haves for me!

Saitom and Fakku collaboration?

Yeah, I read some of the scans that came out of Afterschool Vanilla. Very NGGGGGHHHHH Inducing, I must say

Is Kira Kira really shipping May? The promo and store pages say it's June. Just wanted to know if I'm getting my book earlier :D

Throwing money at Saitom

I'll have to check on Monday, but it might have been moved to June. I'll apologize in advance that the next two months might see some delays. We have a lot of things to prepare for Anime Expo, which means some of us have twice as much work to get done. Hopefully it shouldn't interfere with the regular schedule too much.

Thanks for your answer, I wasn't expecting it to be ready for May, anyway. Guess I'll keep waiting hahaha.

Apparently we are expecting the shipment to arrive in a few weeks. I'll let you know in case anything changes.

I'm really, really looking forward to After School Vanilla, and Let's Do It.

Great!! Thanks for everything.

Is Lets Do It expected to launch in May or June ?

Is there any way to see the difference between the first and second editions beforehand?

Currently looking at pre-orders at the very end of May, with an early June release for the digital version.


The updates are meant to be objectively better, so the first edition will be replaced. As mentioned, there aren't that many drastic changes to point at, but you could download the current digital version and compare that to the new version once that is released.

I am looking forward to the new books. I keep checking the site! :P
