Would really like to see more Kickstarters of the Juné titles. The last KS ended in April(?). We're well overdue for another. I know they wrote that they were having problems with getting permission from the Japanese publishers and mangaka themselves, but, yeah, hopefully something soon. Now that con season is about over for me, I can fund more of these projects.

This last KS was very successful probably because of Unico. It'll be nice to finally have a copy. This campaign was a little weird though with incorrect info, typos, slow updates, slow DM responses, and some add-ons offered cheaper than before.

But, still I just wish DMI would put anything besides Tezuka out at a decent pace and availability. It's hilarious some Tezuka backers complain about how DMI should put out as much classic stuff as their "seedy" titles.

There's been like 3 BL titles sort of released this year? By sort of I mean I don't think two of them are out to other retailers yet. And the new BL schedule even has two titles that have to be licensed renewed first because the production schedule is so messed up.
I've only noticed a new edition for one of the Project-H titles recently. Maybe they're catching up to their backlog but, I can't keep track.
The other DMP stuff is still MIA.

DMI can't have everything the need to publish on Kickstarter.That seems about the only way they manage these days so I'm thinking I should give up on other books in the series I wanted to continue collecting.
