September Previews Adult manga

Previews September won’t be out for another week, but here we already have the list of adult manga goodies you’ll be able to order.  As always, keep in mind that most of these books are not scheduled to hit until November.  The last alphanumeric code of each listing is the Diamond Previews Code, which retailers use to place pre-orders.  For more info on how to order our books from LCS, visit the How To page.

ERO Section (mostly straight manga porn… but we reserve the right to get weird)

ICARUS PUBLISHING (don’t go anywhere, that’s us)

Midara is a re-release, new printing at the $14.95 price point.  If you love Juicy Fruits but missed on this awesome first-book from Yumisuke Kotoyoshi, by all means pick this up.

YAOI Section (umm… buttsecks)

801 MEDIA, INC. (DMP)

IRIS PRINT

KITTY PRESS

TOKYOPOP (BLU)

November looks to be an embarrassingly light month for adult manga.  Even the usual tide of BL manga has receded, with technically only 2 new titles.  And while our own Midara is treated as a new SKU with a new price point, it’s still a reprint.  So aside from the regular Comic AGs, there are no new adult manga releases scheduled for November.  Wow.

  1. Anything extra with this reprint? I hope we see more of Megumi in the future, maybe I should write Kotoyoshi.

  2. No extras in the reprint, but there will be some spelling and alignment fixes. We may also resize the manuscript ever so slightly to better emulate the bleed on the Japanese edition. (We’re talking 1/10th of an inch.)

    Plus, the reproduction and paper quality will match our recent releases (thicker paper, sharper reproduction.) That’s good enough for another dip at 15 bucks, right?  If not for you, then a recommendation to a friend, perhaps?

  4. Oh and simon I just wanted to ask about some artists. I dont really know how licensing and all that works with you but I was wondering if you ever looked at ever picking up any of Kisaragi Gunma’s, Okawari’s, Linda’s, or Masakado Kurono’s works?

  5. Linda… most works published by a company we have no relationship with.

    Kisaragi Gunma and Masakado Kuruno… same thing.

    Okawari… his agent/handler doesn’t like us, apparently. =(

  6. =( indeed I would love to see their work in AG but I guess not, maybe its time to make friends with people across the pond, simon =p I’m just worried that if i imort the next day some one might have them licensed *cough*aqua bless*cough*

  7. Too bad about Kisargi Gunma.

    Linda is the illustrator for a book published by France Soin, Escalation: http://www.france.jp/servlet/Satellite?aid=1183960277156&c=Page&cid=1176293009036&p=1176293009088&pagename=bisyojo%2FB_Simple3&sc=b95121562245047332838722323861397
    Is there any difficulty in getting the rights if the writer and illustrator are different people?

    Do you have any relation with Core Magazine? They publish most of Oni of Benevolence’s work. He’s also illustrated two books for France Soin: http://www.france.jp/servlet/Satellite?aid=1183960275457&c=Page&cid=1176293009036&p=1176293009088&pagename=bisyojo%2FB_Simple3&sc=b95121562245047332838722323861397

    Could these be licensed?

    How about Carnelian’s France Soin work: http://www.france.jp/servlet/Satellite?aid=1183960280668&c=Page&cid=1176293009036&p=1176293009088&pagename=bisyojo%2FB_Simple3
