One manga will be posted every day from December 1 to December 18; the first to be released is Nomino ("know me now") from Yumi Unita (Bunny Drop).
Hakusensha shipped the first issue of Le Paradis on October 29, and more issues will follow three times a year in February, June, and October. The magazine focuses on one-shot love stories from various artists. The first issue features 14 artists, including cover artist Kaya Shigisawa, Mika Hisaka, Asumiko Nakamura, Unita, Kowo Kazuma, Hikau Hinomiya, Rendō Kurosaki, Jun Takemiya, Kiko Urino, Uko Nishi, Suruga Kiryu, Chu Takeda, and Niritz. Yen Press announced at Comic-Con International in July that it had licensed Unita's Bunny Drop (Usagi Drop) manga for North America.
