The store says it will ship in march. I imagine if that date needs to be pushed back further than the end of march, jacob, or someone will probably make an update on the situation similar to Renai Sample. I really wish that they could find a place that would print the stuff in their state. Correct my if i'm wrong but didn't fakku try to find a place in Oregon to print it but nobody would do take it on due to the image impact it might have on the company? I heard it was because of adult material, but i am skeptical thats the only reason. There are plenty of places that print "normal" porn in the US


Not just that. FAKKU! isn't afraid to produce loli material. America will annihilate anything that has to do with child pornography. You can argue all you want that loli isn't child porn. You won't succeed. Therefore associating with FAKKU! is a risky idea for American businesses.

The renai book free month was the test drive.


I was talking about the advertisements.

This is the test drive.


It's not an opt-in our opt-out program. They deployed it for everyone. My point was that if FAKKU made it opt-in they would have been able to deal with all the bugs prior to launch.

I heard something about FAKKU no longer needing to follow sponsor rules because of Books bringing in more revenue


Source for this? Just curious.

I definitely agree that there's a lot of room for improvement. But I will say the old pop-up ad was pretty useless and annoying. Even though I don't really care for the new ones I do actually look at them. However a lot of people are experiencing problems and they had a pretty bumpy launch. I think it might have been a better idea to have some users give it a test drive with an opt-in program first.

I also have another thing I want to mention regarding electronics and youth. I am not a doctor, and I haven't done a research regarding this topic, but I think electronics are detrimental to the health of young children, especially regarding eyesight. All my grandparents and parents have good eyesight. But, my sister and I had to wear glasses since elementary school, and so did most of the people that I know that were exposed to electronics like us. In addition, while my eyesight is not too terrible, my sister's eyesight is so bad to the point where lasik surgery cannot be performed to her eyes and she literally goes blind without her glasses or contact lenses. Finally, a lot of my friends who do not wear glasses that play games and are interacting with electronics many more hours daily, were exposed to electronics later than I was. To summarize, I am, by no means, claiming that electronics are harmful on today's youth. I am stating, that there is a solid correlation between the health of today's youth and electronics, thus it is worth the time and the effort of people to research this topic in more detail.


Is this a widely accepted fact? Technology has always been a huge part of my life. I'm in front of my computer for a huge portion of my days. I know that the sedentary lifestyle is unhealthy for many other reasons, but as for eyesight mine is better than almost everyone else's in my family. I haven't noticed any significant decrease in vision either.

Well don't spoil the surprise!!!

I can see how some people would find it creepy. It's just whatever to me.

Well now everyone's going to look.
This is as much a mystery to me as anyone else here. But I suppose none of us here have even bothered trying it. Maybe they actually have some amazing content (for those who are into it). I don't see myself every getting into that junk, but I won't rule out the idea that it might be worth it to others. Plus there are people out there who legitimately believe that if you explicitly pay for something, it's just better.
I definitely feel you about the ads. Some of them turn me off really badly. I'm not really sure what's going on with it currently but the membership plan hasn't yet been finalized. In fact you ought to toss out other ideas for things you'd like to see and they'll probably be considered.

What we know so far is:

  • Advertisements will have a toggle option.

  • There will be a store discount for members.

  • There will be some special features for the forums and for browsing manga.


There's also some unknown special that's being worked out. If I had to guess, it would be something about merchandise but I really have no idea.

Absolutely. This and Toroke Manako are currently being typeset, and I'm just about to start translating a new book.


Sooooooooooooooooo Fe-bru-ary digital...? :D

I guess you can't confirm yet even if you wanted to. Aarrrghh!! I need this book.

-If I were to somehow install an absurd amount of RAM (lessay, a terabyte), my computer would never crash again?


That may not fix your problem. Most motherboards can only handle a certain amount of RAM, depending on how old your computer is. Most of the newer PC's can handle up to 256 MB, which is the most I seen so far. If you were to do any modifications to your computer, I'd recommend researching your computer's specs to find out what hardware is compatible with your motherboard.


I assume you meant GB? This would be a silly thing to do anyway. Anything remotely close to that amount of memory would cost an astronomical sum of money.

@PumpJack McGee you may be confusing "memory" with "storage". RAM (memory) is a special type of high speed storage device. A "stick" of RAM typically comes in small amounts (e.g. 2 gigabytes or 4 gigabytes) because it's relatively expensive. Just 8 GB of RAM will cost you about $70 USD today. Storage on the other hand is a very slow container for your data. Storage is (usually) very cheap in comparison but your computer needs both to function. Storage devices include hard disks, flash drives, and more recently solid state drives. A typical 1 terabyte hard disk will cost only $50-$70 USD.

Everything on your computer is stored on a storage device at first. When you want to boot up Windows or run a program (like your browser) your computer moves that data from storage to RAM in order to have high speed access. Without doing this, your computer would be awfully slow and unresponsive, so it's not really feasible to have a computer system without RAM.

With that out of the way let's talk about how RAM might affect your performance. There are basically only three scenarios.

1. You have sufficient or maybe even too much memory available. In this case everything should run smoothly and you should not experience any problems. Having extra memory will not add any additional benefit.

2. You have insufficient RAM available. As MeganeMaster described, your computer will set aside a chunk of space on your storage device (typically at least double the capacity of your RAM). When your memory starts to fill up, your operating system (Windows) makes the decision to put some stuff that was in your memory into this page file. The term "virtual memory" just means that your computer treats it as an extension of your actual RAM. This allows your computer to keep using memory even when you're trying to use more than it has available. However, there is a limit to how much extra mileage you can get. You will eventually run out of virtual memory and at that point Windows will warn you and you may start experiencing serious problems.

[EDIT] Additional opinion: 2GB of RAM is not very much today. Most people will recommend 4 GB minimum these days for a new computer. We can't rule out the suggestion that you have insufficient RAM.

3. Your RAM is failing. If part of your RAM stick is failing all sorts of bad things may happen. If you can safely conclude that your computer only experiences problems with Flash and video then your RAM is probably not failing. You would probably experience much more random problems if your RAM was bad.

With all that said, it's still not clear what the root of your problems is. This problem has only manifested recently so there must have been some change. The requirements for computing is constantly changing, and for the most part we need more powerful machines as time passes. In this case your computer would just be outdated and literally unable keep up with the times. But I'm not convinced that this is the case. To my knowledge, there hasn't been any major change in the requirements to play video (but I could be wrong about this).

More likely to me would be as dasBattleship01 suggested, overheating. After a long period of time (especially without thorough maintenance) a computer will run hotter and its parts will be worse at dissipating heat. For less powerful computers, playing video will really heat things up. This not only shortens your computer's lifespan, but it also decreases performance in the present time. You always want to keep your computer as cool as possible. If you haven't checked it for dust, make sure to pop it open and have a look. There are many guides on the internet for proper cleaning and maintenance. OK if you have a laptop this is much more difficult but possibly doable.
One day out of the blue he's gonna post a photo of her covered in semen ಠ_ಠ
If I'm not in a rush I will easily get lost in the world of hentai. It's not uncommon for me to start loading up random things from my downloads folder after checking out the newest uploads. I enjoy it a lot regardless of whether or not I'm aroused. Eventually I'll settle on something and by the time I've finished an hour or more will have gone by.
VACCINES ARE THE DEVIL!!!!!!!!!

This is probably all it takes to convince them.

Lol I am surprised nobody has the same simple "ideas" I had?
While I agree it is easier to just use the digital version for this purpose, I still prefer looking at the printed version for some reason...
So you can just but some fairly heavy small things on the very edge of the pages you wanna "use" and it will stay that way. Of course you have to "decide" first which page will be the best page to use...so I usually rad the whole chapter and go back to the best one to "use" and like I said, but some items on it. Will look something like this (am I crazy for doing this? XD):

This method is not for me. I prefer being able to turn the pages (or in my case having the computer turn the pages after ~50 sec). Plus I don't always do it standing so I'd have to put the book on a low surface which would be dangerous for the book!

Good luck. The worst ones cause power outages over several days.

Well this is a rather old post. I hope it gets implemented in Gold, but I didn't see it mentioned on the recent update post.

A proper filter system shouldn't be limited to subscribed users. You're making a fool of yourself.

Another suggestion would be to add on in the forums.


Unfortunately those are the types of features that severely impact the performance of the website, which is why they would have to be a FAKKU Gold feature.


I see what you're doing here. If you're going to allow people to filter out certain tags then at least the website should benefit from it financially, or else risk losing too many people viewing manga they could otherwise potentially like. Clever.


Performance might actually be a valid concern. I'm not an expert but if every user had a personalized home page the servers would have to handle a specialized query for nearly everyone. There would be way too many different specialized queries to get much benefit out of caching. You could maybe get better performance by only querying the most recent 200 uploads but there are also weird edge cases in which a user blocks out all the most popular tags, leaving the front page nearly empty. Anywho the home page gets clicked very, very frequently so I think it's legitimately taxing.
Porn stars look absolutely unappealing to me.

I get that makeup is a standard for women in porn, but it never looks good to me. When I judge looks face is the most important and in porn they just look ... filthy. I mean if it's not beautiful and not cute, then I'm probably not going to get very excited.

I don't really care about the men but they're a part of it so it should be mentioned. Men in porn seem to all come from the same cookie cutter. Tall, muscular, and large. Now I don't normally feel a lot of insecurity when it comes to my body but sooner or later it gets hard to avoid thinking about it. As for Japanese men in porn ... I just find them repulsive. It always seems like the men in Western porn are just doing their job (which is not really a good thing) and the men in Japanese porn are genuine perverts. I find it gross.

But hentai is wonderful! Hentai is drawn by many different artists with incredible variety. Hentai characters typically don't have flaws. I don't mind how unrealistic it is because it's appealing. Hentai can have actual story, instead of watching the same two adults go at it in several different positions for 60 mins straight. Hentai can be exciting and new. I think if people were more open-minded everyone could learn to appreciate hentai. There's always something for everyone.

I just think this comes off that way. MMF sex doesn't require non-heterosexual orientations. It would be pretty hard to not see the other dude's junk. Anyway it shouldn't have to do with anyone's sexuality.
