She wrote a song dedicated to Kuma-chan that is one of my top ten songs of hers.

So Hikki wrote this in San Francisco on her US tour

Gay Kuma series :)

Macho-gay Kuma, girly-gay Kuma, and drag queen Kuma!

Actually, I don’t think I’ve ever really explained it here, but Kuma really is gay (he’s a boy but likes men only, no interest in girls…) so these illustrations flowed pretty naturally.

Oh, did I just out Kuma?

That is just sooo cute… ^_^

After companies started porting PS2 adventure games (which were sometimes ported from PC adventure games) to PSP and DS, I wondered why they weren’t doing the same with BL games. I can only hope that this is just a start and a flurry of other PS2 games I’ve always pined after are right behind, waiting to be reincarnated into PSP games.

A quick glance at the giant headings looks like the anime-only characters are making their way into the PSP version of Gakuen Heaven.

……a question to the Sakai City website in July demanding to know why there were so many “Boy’s Love” manga in the libraries. Such titles have loyal followings of female readers but the questioner maintained that the content was often obscene and unsuitable for public institutions……

To read the entire post, can refer to here. I also found initial mention of the post here via Japanator.

Now this is an issue of censorship, to which I am actually a little miffed about. As a person less than two months shy away from an MLS, and an actually supporter of this type of book. I would say that it falls to the responsibilities of the parents or the library to label the books accordingly, as to what material is suitable for people to read. I was quite surprised at the conservative attitude that was mentioned, because this was a Japanese library, and my assumption is that Japan has a much more sexual freedom than the United States has. That leads me to understand that countries can be quite similar, and that I should be a more broader thinker. Still it is a goal of mine to go to Japan..so there… (whacks)..

There was reporting as well from here. What I was surprised by was – why didn’t Deux Press didn’t release the news themselves? Ahhh.. more attempts for trying to keep up with the blogs for me then.

• Take Me to Heaven by Nase Yamato in January
• Noodle Shop Affair by CJ Michalski in February
• Love Round!! by Hinako Takanaga in Feburary
• Naughty But Nice by Naduki Koujima and Future Lovers: Volume 2 by Saika Kunieda releasing in March

Of this list so far, I am most anxiously waiting for Future Lovers, since I wrote a review here. Not sure about the others, but thinking that it would be pretty good, since my opinion is that Deux Press reminds me very much like 801 Media, sexy and lots of hot scenes.

Tyrant QC is done :) so next phase is printing!!! OK – we will be updating the website with pre-order for weekend after Thanks Giving – that would be Nov. 29th that Saturday.

Whew, I was beginning to worry my fujoshi faith powers had shut down the wrong company.

I believe this happened because I put all my faith in Drama Queen when they made their latest announcement, leaving no faith for Boysenberry.

The schedule is that we will print 1 book every 6-8 weeks until we pick up again with multiple titles. The first book to arrive in NOVEMBER 2008 is Tyrant Falls in Love v01 – FINALLY!!!!
