As there have been four volumes in this series, I wonder if we miss out anything with this one?This series has a somewhat confusing history. In short, there are only two volumes, and many re-releases.
The original book was released in 2008, with a sequel the year after. These two volumes were then re-released as Pollinic Girls Complete Part 1 & 2 in 2017, and it was then finally all combined into one, extra large book which is the one we're releasing. Every volume contains a bunch of extra chapters not related to the Pollinic Girls series, and to my knowledge, these all vary slightly in each release. However, true to its name, this is the most complete version of the main series, including all the previous Pollinic Girls chapters as well as one that was never part of any previous release.
You can see the full list of all included chapters on the store promo page.

I can't say I'm surprised at printers being reluctant to print loli stuff [...] Is it possible to release digital-only versions?The problem (right now) is with Japanese publishers and Western payment processors, so digital only is not an option.

Would it be possible in like a semi long term adventure to sell from japan as well?The main issue with this is that it the content couldn't possibly be uncensored. Attempts have been made to run similar businesses in the past, and those have often ended in arrests. And even if we operate out of Japan, that wouldn't change the publishers reluctance when it comes to licensing this material for the overseas market, which we're clearly targeting if the books are in English. Trying to "trick the system" any some way would likely have very negative consequences in the long run.

if one of the issues is being unable to sell “obscene” content on major payment platforms or being unable to ship it, would it be possible to have limited print runs that are exclusive to Fakku’s con appearances like AX? Just a thought.Well, that's one of the issues, but we can't sell something if we don't have a license for it. Should Japan change their mind on this matter, the next question is if conventions would allow us to sell these sort of books at their venue. Finally, it might not be financially viable to produce and sell only a couple hundred copies.
I appreciate the suggestions, and I'll take them with me for any future meetings we'll have on the topic. I apologize if I come of as dismissive, but just know that when I say we've been working on this internally for the last couple years, I mean it. If there was an easy solution, I don't think we'd be this discussion right now.

While I appreciate the honesty here, this is incredibly frustrating to hear.Believe me, it's frustrating for us as well. As with most business dealings, you can't really talk about it publicly until you reach some kind of agreement. That's especially true when it comes to touchy subjects such as this one. We've actively worked on this for the last five years behind the scenes, hoping that we could eventually find a solution. However, by now we've pretty much exhausted most of our available options.
I'm sorry to anyone who feel disappointed hearing this, and all I can say is that we'll keep trying. But after five years of trying, all we have to show for it are a bunch of closed doors, and not much else left for us to try. We don't like this outcome, but it's the unfortunate reality that we find ourselves in. We've had to accept that, which is why I'm also sharing it with you now. Again, we haven't give up, but it's looking pretty bleak at this point.

I'll be honest with you, that's very unlikely. There are essentially two major hurdles:
First off, most artists and publishers will flat out refuse to let anyone license this sort of content outside of Japan. We've even tried to get books with no explicit material, but just because it's published under a label associated with explicit content, it's off limits. Secondly, even if we did get a license, it's virtually impossible to sell the title, as no company is willing to process payments for this kind of content. Most won't even touch adult content at all.
One of the first titles we tried to get was a book from a highly-requested artist, but that request was rejected. When we got another title (NTR2) we ran into the other problem and had to give up on that license. And please realize that the hurdles we're up against are not legal, but purely based on morals. This situation is sadly unlikely to change until we see a major shift in how society looks at this kind of content, both in Japan and in the West.
Finally, I want to stress that politics and a fear of public outrage has nothing to do with this (on our end). That a completely separate can of worms, but that's not what stands in our way currently. I want to explicitly mention that so that no one thinks that's the implied takeaway from this.

Just a quick update on Comic Europa. The magazine is changing from a physical to digital release model in Japan, and is on hold until all the logistics are taken care of. We'll keep you updated when and if we have any new information worth sharing. For now, the magazine is scheduled to return later this summer.

Heyo, just checking in if there's any word on the next chapterDoujinshi has been a pretty low priority this year, and unfortunately that includes this series. Most of that can be explained by us having to get a handful of doujins prepared ahead of time for the the Anime Expo box set, so hopefully we can work on other projects now that that's mostly behind us. The next one to come out is the sequel to Assisted Mating, but I don't know what's after that at this point. That said, I hope we can get to the next part of this series shortly after that.

The results of the entire poll is being taken into consideration, but that doesn't mean we'll limit ourselves to the titles in the poll. I'm sorry if anything that was said gave that impression, but that was never the intention. The only promise we ever made was to publish the winner of the poll, My Bride is the Demon Lord!?
Furthermore, the results of the poll naturally includes the vote, but also the feedback received in this topic. We took much of that into account for our second poll, which I think had a much better presentation and reception thanks to everyone's feedback here. We learned a lot about how to conduct polls, and we'll refer back to this topic again for future licenses, be that one of the remaining books or brand new titles.
Finally, it's worth mentioning that even if we decide to publish more books from this poll, it wouldn't happen anytime soon. We just released the winner, and before we consider any other titles, PANDRA has to come out first (currently slated for a May release date). The next poll book to get a release—again, if there is one—probably wouldn't happen until next year, meaning an announcement is still months away.

So its been quite awhile, can we expect anything of the two titles that didn't get anything?Nothing to announce at the moment. We only set out to do the winner of the poll initially, and then decided to do an additional title. We might do the other books from this poll at some point, but there's no guarantee that we will.

I don't think it's possible to change the display order, but if you simply want to see all the content in reverse chronological order, it's just one click to get to the last page and you can start from there. Same procedure works for search results as well.
Also to answer your first question, the newest page lists all content published on the site. If you only want content specifically published by FAKKU (or any other publisher), you can do so by filtering by publisher.

It's worth noting that FAKKU has only published a single game so far, Honey Select Unlimited and its DLC. We've also announced Oral Lessons With Chii-chan, planned to be released this summer, as well as LOVE³, which is currently still under development in Japan. All the other games you see on the site are from other publishers, and we only serve as a distribution platform for those (similar to Steam).
I'm not at all involved in the games side of FAKKU, but I believe a lot of these games come from smaller publishers. It's a fairly fresh niche market, so it's probably a lot more feasible for a smaller team to work on a 2D game than one that uses 3D. Based on what I've heard from our team who did Honey Select, a ton of work went into that release.
That said, this kind of feedback is always appreciated. I'm sure more 3D content will come in the future, be it from us or other teams.

All previews are up. Also, keep in mind that due to the end of year holidays, these magazines will be delayed a bit. We got started on them about two weeks later than normal, so expect chapters to start releasing in the second half of the month. Naturally, this hasn't and won't affect the overall output of content.
