For anyone who bought the 2nd edition of Cute Devil Girlfriend, are the print specs close to Fakku print specs? A5, white paper stock, etc.

While this has nothing to do with the topic I am going to respond to your inquiry.

The 2nd edition of Hisasi's Cute Devil Girlfriend looks like every other one of Project H's pre-2016 releases, except that it has color pages at the beginning of the book. That being said, Project H has yet to publish anything with the same quality as Fakku's releases.

For everyone wondering about the status of the project, that's a little update written a few days ago in the kickstarter page comments section:

From the ashes, we shall arise. Or in my case, I just woke up in an abandoned parking lot and was just handed the keys to this Kickstarter.
As many have speculated, the original Kickstarter organizer has moved on in short notice, as well as the person who was taking over in the interim. On behalf of everyone who has worked to make this Kickstarter happen, I would like to apologize for our lack of communication and instilling a sense of doubt among our loyal backers.
That said, what I know right now is that Vanilla Essence is currently in printing and is expected to arrive at our doorstep no later than a few weeks from now.
Moving forward, I would like to be as transparent as humanly possible about the current state of Vanilla Essence and the ETA before we can get everything shipped out. I will be picking up where my predecessors had left off and contacting our associated printers and manufacturers to see where we currently stand. Please expect a full update within the coming days as the information rolls in.

Well after the last update I am officially never going to give money to Project-H again.

I understand it was not directly their fault and they are trying to remedy this as soon as possible, but yeah my wallet will never open up for them again.

I wondered if they could of ask for retrograded rights if it was a mistake. I don't see why anyone would care for free royalty money.

But again i use amazon for non fakku books... would buy some preordered kodomo no jikan tanks if i could.

Sounds like a win win situation, but at this point even if they did announce something like that, and said we are gonna start shipping right away I still wouldn't feel comfortable going back.

I sound so childish right now.

I already forked over cash for KnJ, so that was the end of my money transactions with them.

Incredibly frustrating update. Pretty sure Bandai would not appreciate their copyrighted images appearing in an H book..

Didn't have the money to buy all 6 at that time. If they sold it buy vols i could of piece it together. Just like legend of the overfiend, but i knew there was gonna be a pre order and store supply. Jacob thought of a long game. Digital manga just thinks for the present. A good chunk of their staff left in june and alot of their licenses aren't selling and they lost some in the process. Berserk and hellsing is all that was good and they only had co licensing with dark horse.

It was more i can pirate digital copies of them over buying jikan or buy fakku books mostly. I rather paid for something better. If they was smart they could of made money at amazon or B&N by printing a few hundred since how many normies know kickstarter.

I think i read somewhere it was more. Or maybe i miss read the earlier update... i swore it said staff members. Maybe i assume since there only one guy doing all the shipping... but then again i assume Ben is the only more shipping here also. Could be more.. i think. Their help wanted on site is long in needed positions.

So uhh... was there a problem with the kickstarter? and ProjectHentai as well? also staff quitting???

I've previously bought books from ProjectHentai but lately I've noticed their website seems a bit... slow in terms of updating their products and the lack of twitter updates.

I'm just curious, because it seems like other people seem disappointed with ProjectHentai. so what's the story?

Basically the books got accidentally printed with pages that were not suppose to be there (copyright issues and stuff) and they all had to be reprinted. They're currently offering a chance to buy those "damaged" books at $5 each.

Probably, the message regarding the "damaged book" was through kickstarter. You could try contacting Project H personally for more info.

Also, ugh, what a mess of a kickstarter..

Wow, too bad I didn't buy it when it was in stock or any of the "damaged books".

Don't know why, but I don't mind paying 20 bucks for one FAKKU book, but I have a hard time deciding to pay 20 bucks for one ProjectH book.
