I chose in the 11 range for when I actually knew it was 'anime' and Sailor Moon, and Dragon Ball Z weren't just 'cartoons' because I watched that stuff way earlier than what I knew what it was.

Project-H is the licensing company that goes to the Japanese publishers and buys rights from them. Once they have rights then they get localizers like us who translates and typesets etc. They get the books together and put them out on the market. Least that's my understanding of it - it's more than likely much more complicated then that :)

And don't get us wrong - we strive for a professional taste with translation, but we were pleasantly surprised with the translator for Velvet Kiss through Project-H that was hired for that volume.

LD was the original translator in Soba-Scans for the scanlated version, and he took the role as the "editor" for the licensed version and was able to change the script as he felt needed. It was a good learning experience to see an actual professional translator translate something, but it was also nice being able to change things as needed to make sure the original tone was still there.

LD got to translate Volume 2 as well as all the Koi wo Suru manga and completely redid the scrips with the focus of making it more professional to stand up to the upgrade Volume 1 of Velvet Kiss had. We're really looking forward to producing something we cared so much about in even higher quality.



As far as licensing go, they just got the rights to Volume 3 and according to their Twitter they're in the process of getting the rights to Volume 4 :) so I don't think you have anything to worry about.

I fucking hate when that happens. Fun fact: if you get a cramp in the leg, eating a spoon full of mustard really does the trick.


My insignificant dislike today - it not being Friday and having to repeat another day of work.

least now your moles can't become cancerous.

I'm actually still working on Volume 2 (have it open now working on it) I can't speak for Jacob as to when it'll be available to preorder, but it'll be on here for sure!

It went out of stock again <_<;

I don't need a discussion on this topic on whether or not loller's behavior is appropriate.

I'd rather stay on topic where Harumi Chihiro gets her debut release to the English readers of the world and answer questions regarding the volume etc.

Back in stock and try the direct link if you were having issues :)



I don't have an image for you since I'm awaiting mine in the mail myself, but if you want dimensions of what an A5 format is: 210 x 148 mm and 5-7/8 x 8-1/4 in

Holy Crap! Jacob's gonna have to do something about that :o

When it comes to licensing additional volumes, it comes with sales. So as long as people who support the manga and enjoyed the scanlation take the time to support it officially with some cash - then there would be no reason additional volumes wouldn't be licensed.

As for Volume 2 - I'm typesetting that now :)

That's not even my favorite cover, 2 and 4 are my favorite:

I'm fairly certain it'd be the normal price $20.

I'm really excited about being involved with the project and getting a chance to promote something that will directly impact Harumi's success with her great works and also contribute to FAKKU!

I hope you all enjoy the book, I can say with confidence that everyone who contributed to the book put their absolute everything into it <3

Check out some images Jacob posted of the book:

I was thinking about this thread not too long ago. I'm still in Georgia but never went to Life University due to the decline of interest.

Spent two years not in school, and I'm starting back up again but to the Arts Institute of Atlanta for Graphic Design :P

I hate when employers ask you "Where do you think you'll be in 5 years from now?" because once you venture out into life on your own - you really have no idea where you'll be 5 years from now.

I met Fiery_Penguin_of_Doom on Fakku and we're still living together 3 years from then.

I voted no preference, but I do have a preference of a specific kind of either kind.

I'm very very picky about Japanese porn - like the OP stated, I hate the whininess from the girls of it's uncomfortable or hurts etc etc. A lot of Japanese girls just whine when they moan it sounds like. Also - I know it's genetics, but I hate the teeth on a lot of amateur Japanese porn actresses.

What I do like from the Japanese Porn is the teasing end of it - I loove Japanese softcore porn. I also really like Hitomi Tanaka. I would go full lesbian on her.

As far as Western porn goes - I hate when they try to add a plot to it, they just do it so terribly compared to the Japanese. I also hate the dirty talk and when the girl enjoys it she's always "FUCK YEAH FUCK YEAH FUCK YEAH" I hate the whining in Japanese porn - but this is just too far on the other side. I always think that she needs a dick in her mouth to keep her quiet ;|

I like that the bodies aren't censored of course in western - and I like dicks more in Western porn.

Yeah, there should be a condition to the prize that aosora only gets the prize if he completes a chapter! :P
