Alright so before we get into the releases we should mention that a few days ago was our group's second birthday! We didn't want to make a special post on the day itself for a couple reasons - first, a second anniversary isn't so exciting as a first one, and second, there's nothing really to say here that didn't get said this time last year. We're still having tremendous fun doing all this, and we all feel deeply privileged to have been able to bring you all another year of BL. We're still going strong and have absolutely no plans to quit or slow down, so here's hoping we'll be making another one of these posts in a year's time! Once again we would like to deeply thank our readers for their continued support, and all our friends for their extremely valuable contributions. And of course none of this would be possible without the poor mangakas themselves, so if you've seen a title you like here please think about buying yourself a copy. I'm sure none of the mangakas get paid very much so every little really does help!
Anyway onto the releases. First up we've got the final piece of Kurayami ni Strobe - the extra content in the Tankobon. Similar to the extras in the Yozora book we've got an omake and some 4komas - plus some really lovely colour bits (thanks to the appropriate people). There's no sign of any more Juicebox/Glasses oneshots at this point so this could be the last bit of Kurayami content you ever get - so enjoy!
Kurayami ni Strobe - Extras
And next up is the return of something you haven't seen in a while. You may remember a while ago we did a three-chapter story by Kevin Komine - Bikkuri. This story was published in the same volume as another three-chapter story, Bitansan Danshi, and we'e finally gotten around to having the first part of that ready. If you liked Bikkuri you'll probably like this, so there you go:
Bitansan Danshi - Chapter 1
And at long last we've got the final story from the Syrup anthology. This one's a bit more elaborate than most, taking in mysterious libraries and similar things. But at its heart it's a good honest story about dudes dressing like ladies. Please enjoy:
Syrup![Bitter] - Decode Library
Finally an administrative announcement: extremely hard-working team member KG is going to take a well-deserved holiday from the group to focus on more useful pursuits. One of the things she does is take care of the acmedanmail email address, and I'm now going to be the one responsible for that. I'll try my best to settle into things as quickly as possible but there might unfortunately be a delay in my responses while I work out what's what - if you've asked us for something and haven't had a reply in about ten days from now, please email us again because I'll have missed the original message accidentally or something like that.
Anyway that's all for now! Thanks for sticking with us for another year, have a good week, and we'll see you next time!
