Guess they must've gotten complaints that some of their "hentai" titles weren't actually porn.

It could be that they are just trying to broaden their market. Probably some people who don't want outright pornography, but would be happy with heavy fan service.

I'm hoping they resurrect "Enchanter" and finally print the remaining volumes in the series.

Maybe bookstores will be willing to carry this line...

Also, this is really the type of line Nyotai-ka! should have been released under.

Hmm, I was expecting something else when I read that they wanted to show manga for adults that aren't strictly pornos. I was thinking this would mean seinen series, but the two listed here sound like the usual shounen harem/ecchi stuff.

But when will Princess Lucia be published, then? It was originally slated for January 2016 under Project-H, but now we have no date for it at all. The article mentions no date either.

If they're going to kick off the new imprint with it, it must be before September, if that's when The Secret Akuma-chan will start.

I remember hearing some grumbling when they announced that they were going to publish Princess Lucia under Project H. Maybe this is a response to that.

Well, it is kind of in the name: PeCChi.

Akuma-chan needs an anime adaption.



...Not that it'll ever get one.

I knew that the artstyle for Ore to Akuma and Kaminomi looked familiar; ANN just ran a review of one of the author's other works. And in the review, Rebecca wrote

While I wouldn't call this a tame book (although it is for mangaka Hideaki Yoshikawa) [...]


Makes me wonder what goes on here Embarassed Twisted Evil

Laughing I didn't even pay attention to that. Embarassed

But, my attention was what was being said on the label, and clearly not the the of the label.

The quotes got my hopes up, the synopsis for the series dashed them.
