So, the Juné panel-- run by TOTALLY different people than the 801 Media panel, we swear...what do you think they'd do, have the same people do panels in the same room back to back? WTFever! ;) --started out with new titles, and boy were there a lot.
* Love Recipe by Higashizato Kiriko
* In the Walnut by Kawai Toko
* Picnic by Yamada Yugi
* Othello by Hasumi Toui
* Sweet Whisper by Fujiyama Hyouta
* Ordinary Crush by Fujiyama Hyouta
* Lovers in a 1K Apartment by Fujiyama Hyouta
* World's End by Eiki Eiki
* Nakimushi na Little by Kinoshita Keiko
* Another one we forgot: Toumei Shounen (Invisible Boy) by Odagiri Hotaru! They said this was a VERY early announcement, however...it might be a year before the first book's actually out.
* Ai no Kusabi (novels) by Yoshihara Rieko
* Words of Devotion by Konno Keiko
In addition to these licenses, Juné will be releasing a manga by Japanese mangaka Ogami Yuro (Yuno? I can't read my handwriting!)..but it'll be coming out in English before it comes out in Japanese! It's called "Etoile."
Alrighty then, more news after the jump!
Our Yaoi Con discussion thread is here.
FAQ and Q&A:
* Juné will be silling character goods soon!
* The Let's Draw Yaoi book will be out in Spring.
* Art of Loving volume 2 is not out in Japan yet, so they can't exactly release it in the US now, can they?
* Someone asked about Color and got a "no comment," so we can hope that they're at least in discussions for acquiring the title, which is by Eiki Eiki and Taishi Zaou and takes place in the same universe as Art of Loving.
* They do honorifics on a case-by-case basis. For example, in Rin! it added a lot to include the honorifics, but in other titles it might matter less.
* For those concerned about the fact that the Homerun Ken story in J-Boys was also in Clan of the Nakagamis, it's because Juné was not permitted to put different stories into J-Boys. They were, however, permitted to remove stories...which they did (all the shouta ones).
That's really about it for new and/or interesting stuff. Whew. |
