Irodori Sakura Licenses Steamy Love and Too Darn Irresistible by Tomo Oshima and Towa Oshima Duo

OREGON, USA – June 4, 2022 – Irodori Sakura – BL, Yuri, and LGBTQ+ English localization imprint of original Japanese doujinshi publisher Irodori Comics – is proud to announce the license acquisition of indie yuri manga Steamy Love and Too Darn Irresistible by fan-favorite duo Tomo Oshima and Towa Oshima.

Irodori Sakura has partnered with Tomo Oshima and Towa Oshima to bring their self-published yuri manga to English-speaking audiences. Yuri fans are familiar with Towa Oshima as the creator of High School Girls manga, who later partnered with Tomo Oshima and started releasing various self-published manga.

Irodori Sakura has acquired two of their popular self-published yuri series Steamy Love (Tokeru Joshiyu), and Too Darn Irresistible (Kawaii Kara Osottemita) from their Locker Room Delights (Joshi Kouishitsu) series.

Irodori Sakura also plans to release short stories from the same series that Too Darn Irresistible belongs to:
