I believe that you need to make a some forum posts for it to show up. After that it'll show up under the "General" section in settings above "Hide Your Favorites".

From what I remember, the original DVD had a soft blur effect mostly during sex scenes, so I'm fairly sure that it's inherent in the video source.

If I'm not mistaken, Wife Swap Diaries and House of 5 Lusts are the only anime releases so far that haven't had a BluRay release, so my assumption is that they're both upscaled for 720p and 1080p.

I've also been wondering about this. The previous English translation was made by R18.com (DMM.com's English adult section); however, R18.com has since completely removed their comics section making it impossible to purchase their translation. Hopefully, one of the upcoming 7 unannounced titles in the release list is this book or another Marui Maru book.

I just noticed that there's a typo on page 32 in the chapter "Irregular" where one line ("Let go...") isn't properly in the bubble:

Project-H should probably be fine. They're another publisher that is a part of Digital Manga Publishing (DMP) and has been around longer than FAKKU, but they seem to be having possible financial difficulties, hence the lack of new physical releases since last year (plus they seem to be having a hard time keeping their newer releases in stock especially on other sites like Amazon or Rightstuf). However, they've been known to have some sketchy business practices such as having multiple on-going Kickstarters that have been delayed up to over a year and whose funds allegedly were also used for costs outside of the project.

Their paper quality is typically no where near FAKKU's (although it's similar to most English manga releases) and they have some titles that have censorship. Their digital releases tend to have subpar resolution in my opinion, but it varies.

I'd suggest getting any of the 2nd Editions of Yamatogawa's books since those are close to the same quality of FAKKU's books (they had a Kickstarter for "Vanilla Essence" and had new editions as a stretch-goal). It looks like they've also got a "Rescue Title" listing for "Vanilla Essence" which I believe are the originally printed copies for the Kickstarter that had a copyrighted image that they didn't get permission to use. It's kind of sketchy, but that's a little expected from them at this point.

Although it's not hentai, Range Murata has an illustration book out featuring his futuregraph illustrations up through #170 as well as other illustrations and it would be awesome if an English version got released: future log.

It's Kaho Shibuya. The code of the film that image is from is JUFD-564.

For past year or so, there's typically between 2 to 4 weeks between book pre-orders, usually 3 weeks. It might go up for pre-order next week (which would be my guess) or there might be another week or 2 of waiting (every now and then there's a longer gap in between pre-orders, usually after the holidays or near Anime Expo).

The fact that they're also not on Anime Expo's exhibitor list is also a bad sign (Anime Expo Exhibitors). Plus, some of the comments on their Kickstarters have linked this review on Glassdoor.com apparently from a former intern that indicates that they've been using Kickstarter funds for things other than the project, so there's a good chance most or all of the money raised for their projects is gone.

I feel horrible for the backers. Hopefully, DMP will be able to fulfill their projects before they go under.

There should be a website or phone number printed on the card or the packaging of the card that you can use to register a name for it.

It's already happening (see the end of Jabob's first post on this thread): Hentai Games Now Available on FAKKU!

My guess is that they might have something planned for it and are waiting to make an announcement. I've also noticed that the image on the first page is from Kairakuten 2017-11 and not Kairakuten 2017-04 as well as some different avatars.

Apparently it's accessible again and seems to be working, link here. No idea how long it's been up. Good luck finding anyone though, I didn't get a match until I tried it on another device. The tag selection looks different than I remember, but I could be mistaken.

I'm not sure if poor sales are the reason since Mangagamer only releases hardcopies of games that sell well and 2 of the 3 Lilith titles have had hardcopy releases, although this might not necessarily mean good sales from Lilith's perspective. I wouldn't be too surprised if piracy was the reason why they stopped licensing games since many Japanese companies label Westerners as pirates because piracy is more common than in Japan. However, a big reason why that's probably the case for hentai is accessibility since very few titles get licensed, it's difficult to import adult goods from Japan, and some Japanese companies will release their English content on Japanese websites like DLsite which might not be as accessible or well known to English speakers.

I also feel like Mangagamer seems to be shifting away from publishing shorter Nukige to publishing longer games with little sexual content and more input from the player.

It's a shame that more content from Lilith isn't getting published in the West since I'd definitely pick up a copy of any of the Taimanin Asagi games if they got an English release. Not to mention that when I first saw Lilith releasing games through Mangagamer, I was hoping that it was a prelude to some of the anime adaptations of their games getting official releases as well. Even though it's roughly decade old now, I'd kill for an English release of Taimanin Asagi's first anime adaptation.

Considering that new book pre-orders typically start the day that the download links for the preceding book get posted, there'll probably be a new book tomorrow. Since there were 2 weeks in between pre-order and download links for the last two books and assuming the next book follows the same trend, that means that if a new book gets released tomorrow, then another will likely be released on 2/15 which coincides with Key's comment. My guess is that "Futabu" (or an unannounced title) will get released tomorrow and "Deep Blue Static" will be released on 2/15.

One place that I've used to get adult goods from Japan is Mandarake. It's the website for a chain of Japanese bookstores and can be good for finding stuff like doujinshi and anime goods and usually doesn't overprice them like some other websites that sell hentai books. It doesn't have the best user accessibility, but if you know what you're looking for, you can usually find it.

Fyi, I found one of the doujinshi you're looking for there: Link. It's a little bit more expensive that doujinshi usually sell (typically about 600 yen), but Cle Masahiro's stuff can sometimes be hard to find and a cheaper copy might show up (no guarantee though). Also keep in mind that I think there's a small fee if your order is under a certain price. I don't remember exactly what the minimum price to avoid this fee is though, I think it's something like 3000 or 4000 yen. As for shipping, I've found that DHL or EMS tend to work the best for me, but it might depend on where your shipping (fyi, I'm in North America).

I imagine that Kitty's new/upcoming releases, "Shoujo-tachi no Sadism" (English title: "Too Hot For Teacher") and "Daraku Reijou" (English title: "Sexual Sacrifice"), will be on here eventually. Keep in mind that the hentai anime service is still in beta, so their might be some other features that need to be tested before things get uploaded regularly.

On an unrelated note, I don't know how autonomous Kitty Media is after FAKKU's acquisition of them, but can the titles of releases be a bit more literally translated? One of the things that always irked me about how hentai anime gets licensed in the West is that title names sometimes get turned into sounding like a cheap 90s porno or have some loosely linked cultural reference.

None of Fue's material has been published by Wani Comics which is the main publisher FAKKU gets their licenses from. I believe most of Fue's commercial releases have been published by TI Net, which I've heard is difficult to license from.

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.

Alternate view options like different sized icons for the covers, a list view similar to the rest of the way entrees are presented on the site, or a cover flow view might be nice as well with different sort options. Also being able to search your library might be convenient. Another thing would be the ability to filter by tags.
