About the Marui Maru book

0
According to this thread there should've been an update about it later in 2017. I wonder if the Marui Maru book is still in the works.

On an unrelated side note: why can't I post in the book section despite having 2 books in my library?

I almost forgot about that. Well, there are three unannounced titles on the release list. Maybe they just haven't announced it yet.

Certainly hope so. My jimmies get rustled a bit every time they announce a book that isn't from Marui Maru. I mean those books are all good releases in their own right, but the Marui Maru has been in limbo for so long :(.

Hopefully we also get "W Yome Sand" as well at some point. FAKKU originally planned to publish it, but decided against it since there was an English translation published by another company even though they originally knew about the other translation. I'm fairly sure that the translation that they were referring to was made by R18.com, which is the English version of DMM.com's adult section, as they had some English translations of manga including "W Yome Sand" albeit digital only and heavily censored. However, R18.com recently axed their entire manga selection so there's no way to purchase the previous translation of "W Yome Sand" anymore.

Holy crap they just got rid of all of it? I didn't even know. What a disaster.

For 2018, we want to try announcing titles much closer to their expected release. One big reason is to avoid situations like this where something happens along the way and the title gets delayed. January was a quiet month since we already had a couple of books lined up, but you will see a lot more announcements (and releases) going forward—the first of which will be this Friday!

Assuming everything goes as planned, you can expect to hear more about Marui Maru some time around May.

As for you issue with forum access, I suggest sending a ticket to support: https://www.fakku.net/contact

The industry panel at Kamicon was yesterday and I can't find anything on twitter regarding new books. Any update?

Seems that stuff can still be bought and downloaded as far as I can tell, without actually buying anything.
Here's "W Yome Sand" titled as "Double Wife Sandwhich" on R18.

Yeah well it seems like you'd be stuck using the stupid reader app the content is locked under. I've never gotten it to work for my account. Seriously, total train wreck.
