Now I'm sad. A-at least there's Gunji planned for this March...

Oh good it's still being released. It's nice to see a trickle of bara here in the west.

Thank you for your invaluable contribution, this thread would be nothing without you.

Anyway, pretty cool that something like this is coming out in the west. I'm curious to check it out.

Next fall hrm?
Seems like more than enough time to scrap up some money for this. I dunno if I'll enjoy it, but I'd like to show support for such titles so maybe we can get more choices later on.

I'm not the biggest fan of bara but I might want to try this. It's basically never released here anyway so it's a breath of fresh air.

I have no interested it in anyway nor will I be. However for those that are I'm happy that it will be in the the states legally.

This post is a good argument for having an "ignore user" function.

I'm almost afraid to know what's in this book with a title called "Massive". We had the chance to pick up the Gengoroh Tagame book. So Fantagraphics is will now pick up where Picutrebox left off I'm going to assume.

Finally! A manga about me...oh. Nevermind.

Hmm, I could probably do some modeling for this kind of stuff if my career doesn't pan out.

;D Hot! Although I'm more interested in Mentaiko bara-style rather than the kind of bara image featured in this article, it's nice to see some ANN news about stuff I am genuinely interested in.

I'm kinda surprised that Fantagraphics is still doing stuff, be it in general or for any of their imprints. Project H has basically overtaken Eros Comix, for one thing.

Here's hoping this book does well.
