Does renewing your subscription at different rates (3 months, year) yield any discounts? That seems to be something new in the subscription settings.We just added subscription tiers, glad you noticed! I'll be making a more in depth post about it soon, but there will be no discounts associated with different tiers. It's purely a matter of convenience and to help some European users who had problems with automatic payments.

Wow this release is amassing really glad i didn't miss out on this one keep making more spectacular releases and I'll keep buying them Service Comity Jacket When?
That and the NaPaTa shirt are next up for the store!
Congratulations to the winners! You'll be getting three month FAKKU subscriptions on me, and I'll be giving Cinia Pacifica one as well for running another successful writing contest. I'll do my best to get these forums more active, so next time we have more entries!
The digital edition has been officially released! You can now read online and download.
If anyone has issues with the physical box set, send an email to store@fakku.net or use the contact form. As always we will replace anything that is damaged.
But I want to ask, is this something you'd all like to see more of? Should we seek out more artists to work with like this, and release their doujins as box sets?

Something I'm confused about, is it translated or is it 100% the Japanese version?But the digital is uncensored english
But physical is real nice, and the language will decide if I buy it or not. I'm guessing it's in Japanese by the wording of the first post, but I'm not 100% sure :(
That is correct, the physical doujin itself is Japanese with censorship.

So I take it there won't be another physical release of this? I had no money at the time and it makes me sad to miss out, especially since I already own about 75% of all the books Fakku has released.Gonna hold off buying digital until I know for sure.
We may print it again in the future, but if we do it won't happen for several months. However if you do purchase the digital edition now for the release tomorrow, if you buy the box set in the future we give you a discount on the price!
As a special thank you to FAKKU, woof has given us his leftover physical copies of I Wanna Know from Comiket 90! So now in addition to the normal digital edition, we also have the original Japanese version for sale!
Do keep in mind though that this is the original, meaning the original physical edition is Japanese with normal censorship.

Just got my box, and maybe an odd question and I probably know the answer, but is the 'Saitom Box' in the side of it support to also be partially on the back? I'm assuming it's a misprint.It's intentional! Designed by Saitom's design circle

Can't you receive a replacement box?
Already sent a ticket for that.
I was just gonna say, go ahead and send a ticket to support and we'll send you a replacement free of charge. Sorry that happened!

From a consumer standpoint it is genuinly exciting to hear that hear quality prints may become more routine, then the standard once a year showcase. From a fan standpoint it is genuinly exciting that you are giving us the option to purchase high quality works from some of our favorite authors.
Brining over titles from Japan has always been great in my opinion, however the execution of how the goods are presented vs how they were presented in their original format leaves a bitter taste in my mouth.
It's nice to see that the times are slowly changing.
Make no mistake, our normal books are incredibly high quality. As you know, all of our books match the quality of the Japanese release and sometimes even exceed it.
Right now I'm specifically talking about special products that are FAKKU exclusive. Things that we put together ourselves like the saitom box, Bosshi's XXX Mix, and the NaPaTa dakimakura. These never had a Japanese release. The frequency of these types of products will still be fairly rare, but I am happy that this particular one (a box set) was so well received.
In the future I see us doing more collaborations with artists for their doujins like this and compiling them into special editions.
The saitom box showed us that there is demand for exceptionally high quality prints (box sets, hardcovers, etc). So as long as you all continue to support it, we will work on releasing more products at this level.

Not sure about the idea of giving first dibs to people who bought more stuff. Although I think I would qualify to that category, that seems much unfair to me.I think what Fakku did this time was pretty fair, releasing in three batches. I don't know if it will be better or not, but maybe they can release in different time slots like once in the morning, once at night. and also maybe announce the time more store-wide like on the main page?
Yeah, I think the issue was more a matter of hour than days.
Afteral, putting the release at the same hour of two days will always leave those who work at this hour unable to order.
HOWEVER, there is also people who work at night so you can be sure someone WILL be working at any hour.
Sooooo...
Help from someone else? Someone you know will be able to order it and would not blush redder than a cherry at the idea of being paid to buy you porn could give you a hand. This is risky practice, and it will end up costing you more that buying it yourself. I don't advise it, but if you trust each other, sure, why not.
Why not make different batches for different times of the day then? Some in the morning, noon, and evening. Nobody has a 24h work day unless you're so committed to that sort of life you'd have no time for porn anyway.
That's probably what we'll do next time we have a limited item. In fact when we launch the NaPaTa dakimakura (which is happening soon), we can have a few scheduled release times spread out over a day.

Send a message to the people who have spent the most money on the website for first dibs.That's a good idea and something I could see us doing in the future. Give everyone who has purchased all of the FAKKU releases, the first chance to pick up the limited item.
This time we decided to schedule two specific dates and times for the release, to give everyone the same chance. It's unfortunate that some people missed out, and it's possible we will print more in the future as a result. I wasn't expecting it to completely sell out immediately on both days.
I want to personally thank everyone who purchased the physical box set. It's our first time printing an expensive set like this so I wasn't sure how well it would be received. I am happy it did so well and even sold out! I am incredibly proud of everyone involved in its production both here at FAKKU and in Japan.
I hope the quality of the final product speaks for itself when you get it. We tried to go above and beyond what you'd expect to create something well worth the money. This is also the first time we worked with an artist so closely and as a result saitom has quickly become a close friend of mine. These comics are very dear to him, so to be able to work on the official release is an honor. I hope you can see the effort he's put into them over the years when you hold them in your hands.
Anyway, enjoy! And thanks for supporting us as always.

And with that this batch has sold out. Another batch will be made available at 4pm tomorrow (Tuesday September 6th), and that will be in the final batch. Good luck everyone and thanks for purchasing the box set!
And go follow saitom on Twitter, he's an awesome guy.

This was my fault, today is a holiday in the United States and none of our team was at the office to update the stock. I didn't realize that.The new time (and correct time), tomorrow at 4PM PST (September 6th).
I'll add a few copies now for anyone still around, and the final stock added tomorrow.
Omg thanks Jacob!
A couple months back i mentioned i only consume physical content, so being able to pick this up is awesome.
Got my copy and priority shipping :3
No problem! This box set is beautiful, I know you'll be impressed.
And I apologize to everyone that it was late, some miscoordination on our part.
