Is there a Yanyo book? Cause that would be awesome:

Ya, that was my guess, but I feel like you can still cap the display at 3x, but still allow the reply on the posts (and display in correct order).

I tried to reply to someone in a comment, but my reply appeared before their response, even though I replied a day after they did. Too confusing be useful :(

I noticed on chapters, that after the 3rd comment (reply), that the 'reply' dropdown is blank. It makes it hard to have a conversation, as the order of comments seem to change after other comments are made on the last comment that can be 'replied' to.

Just to point out, explicit tagging has the benefit of being able to search effectively. For example, there is no 'lactation' tag, but if you search and go through the stories, you can sometimes tell from the thumbnail, but the time it takes with literally thousands of searchable items.

I have just noticed something with editing comments in the last two days. When I got back into edit a comment on a story, the html tags (br, nbsp, etc.) show up (without brakets) and if will be saved and displayed as plain text when you save the comment.

Ahh, I should have clarified, "Sexless Friend 2" and the last fetishism book never got a physical release, just digital with a promise of physical.

Ya, I was honestly surprised when I opened that one, but sadly am so grateful for any kind of H, that I was like, "oh well". I think if that was the only product put out by PH (like all there books were like that), I wouldn't see as big of a disparity between product and price. But compared to other, similar priced products, it does seem more like it should be $12 max.

So, I noticed that PH is making some changes. Changed the name that the email newletter is sent out from as well as listing the authors directly under the title of the book, which is a link so you can easily see the author's entire works.

Downsides is that it seems they are only announcing digital editions. And even editions that were once physical are only digital now (see "Velvet Kiss"). There were so many books I was waiting for, like "Sexless Friend" or the latest Fetishisms... :(

Awesome update, always good to hear about other sources of H. Do you know if they plan to do english language versions?

Maybe I'll go back to dou-lingo and brush up on my French...

Sure, I will take the rap for not doing due diligence to a degree, but there is a lot of content on fakku and I had read 5 of his other works.

I mean, with any author I could probably go further and search online and find an illegal scan of the book and check it out before buying, but my main point is, alot of readers are getting their info from the tags and if those aren't accurate, people will buy then refund. Which I don't think anyone is happy with, Fakku included. That is lost credit card fees for them, as well as more work processing the refunds.

There might be a cheating chapter, the tagging of this one could have been alot better.

After reading Game, Mutual Destruction, Desire, Misdirection, and Summer play, I had to stop. This just isn't a book for me and the tags certainly didn't reflect those chapters. It is frustrating to see pretty much vanilla tags on the book header, then pre-order, then see each chapter released with tags like "loli" and missing tags like "forced".

His previous works didn't clue me in and even waiting on the chapters to be released to read the tags will only help, if those chapters are tagged correctly. Right now the best process seems to be to order the book, read the chapters, then cancel if it isn't a good fit. Doesn't seem ideal.

I was pleasantly surprised by how much I liked KSaW. Really liked the art and the stories were enduring. My fav stories are with assertive girls, like the mad scientist, just hits a sweet spot.

PuniKano has such great artwork! Alot of it reminded me of the cover artist for Super Erotic Anthology by Icarus Publishing. Sooo good!

I would like to weigh in on this. As a "vanilla" consumer I was shocked by Misdirection, based on the tags. It wasn't until I was able to read the chapters online that I realized this was not a good match for me. Artwork is great, would love to see what Higenamuchi does in the future, but for now, am really happy to see another great looking book I am interested in buying.

I feel like everyone has a spectrum of what they like. Mine is admittedly narrower than others, but if your spectrum is very narrow, any non-specialty publisher just cannot satisfy. Publishers have to consider what will sell and while I may not buy every Fakku book, I am glad that they have books that cover a spectrum of tastes, not just my own. I think the books need to be more detailed on what they contain, so consumers can make an informed choice.

So many suggestions... yet here is another.

Would love a collected printed works.

I would love to see the free comic page stay up (not for the free comix), but because I found the comics enjoyable, but I didn't get a chance to go through them all. Found some great authors that I marked to read later! It was fun to see the recomendations.

Maybe it could be a forum post that is linked to the front page in the future?

I think it was most of 2015 when they didn't have any real physical releases. I was watching them for a physical copy of Yellow Work.

If anything, I am very happy they published more Inu and Kerorin. Booya.

You caught me :) I should have elaborated more and said, since I enjoyed Yen Press' "Sundome" so much, I started looking around online for other companies. I had followed Eros and Icarus, but hadn't done a 'global' web search in a while. Same way I ran across Fakku.

As far as I know, the only english H publishers are Fakkue and PH. If someone else has another, let me know! Because I totally need yet another place to send money to :)

Cool, I'll have to check it out, thanks for the recommendation.

Ya, I have been checking the Japanese incubator over the years... but it might also just be my laziness. I got some ways into French, but never to a conversational level :)

Ya, I would like to get a physical on that, but I understand why they are careful.

Good to know I didn't miss out.

I originally found PH because I had really enjoyed "Sundome" which is more E I guess.

I saw that KS, but it didn't seem H, so I skipped it.
