The aliasing on that promo image is painful to look at.

These Comic Festa titles really don't have any yuri in their catalogue, don't they? All they have so far I've seen announced are hetero smut titles for the seinen and josei audiences and boys-love. I kind wish they expand to that so they can cover all their bases.

So it's hentai? Too bad, I really like the female character designs.

Thanks for pointing that out (not that it's anything other than an informative tip). But I wonder if the lack of yuri is because of the view that romance between girls is no more explicit than content you'd normally find on broadcastable anime. You know kind of like that, 'yuri is the purest form of love there is' (or something like that) saying? This ComicFesta seems to specialize in the explicit stuff for "normal" perverts, not you righteous yuri zealots Wink

I'd say softcore. They release edited versions that remove the more explicit stuff, so it has different spice levels for those that don't want it too hot.

No, all their titles are aimed at women. The manga that they're based on are either boys love or teens' love, and both genres are aimedat a josei audience.

At least two titles they adapted were clearly not female-oriented.

Erm. Overflow, Araiya-san! Ore to Aitsu ga Onnayu de!? and Joshi Ochi! 2-kai kara Onnanoko ga... Futte Kita!?. I doubt girls like the titles about one guy banging multiple girls. Other ones were female-oriented, though, there were a couple that can pass for both sexes.

Only in the parallel universe where she doesn't have a live-in boyfriend of five years weighing her down.

I'm not sure if this will reach the editing staff, but please have someone fluent in Japanese proofread in house translations for accuracy before publishing, or readers might get a flawed interpretation from the news articles on the website.

In this case:
しょうたいむ!~みなみお姉さんだってHしたい
I Want to Have Sex With Minami Even If She's a Songstress (article)
Even Minami Onee-san Wants to Have Sex (more accurate)

しょうたいむ!~歌のお姉さんだってしたい
I Want to Do It, Even If She's a Songstress (article)
Even Songstresses Want to Do It (more accurate)

Aside the お嬢さん/お姉さん mix up in the article, the difference in nuance gives agency to the titular idol character and her repressed sexual drive.
