Things like Jab comix and Shad

I would like reiterate that my comment was in response to more discussion of artists in general, not single threads on requesting book titles. I would prefer people to keep their book suggestions in the main thread. However my quote from that was being asked where discussions of artwork and artists was taking place.

I suggest licensing Love Fool by Kerorin. For that matter, I would like to see all of Kerorin's volumes licensed and translated into english (Note: Stop Quibbling About Love has already been done).

I don't know if this has been suggested already, so I apologize if I'm re-treading a previous post, but would it be possible to base some of the decisions for which titles to license on a funding model? Basically FAKKU would say, "If readers commit to a given property and commit X-dollars to it, we will license and translate it." For example you could set the amount at $1,000 and if readers donate money totaling that amount, then the title gets licensed and translated.

This would allow readers to defray the upfront cost and risk to FAKKU of a given title, acting as patrons to it so it can get an english release.

Here is E-Musu Aki's most recent book. It was released in Japan in 2018 (Honey Pot Style was released in Japan in 2015). The hyperlink given takes you to the book's page in the Wanimagazine website.

If you want it though, suggest it in the Book Suggestion Thread instead of making an individual post. Brittany...

Yes, all of the above. Anyone is welcomed to make more threads on artists and discuss them if you'd like to see more of it.

New translation, same treatment as our other books regarding SFX and stuff, dust jacket and paper choice... Essentially, we redid the book but with our standards for books.
