801 Media News & Information

News & Information about 801 Media from Anime Expo 2008

Giapet has news and a boatload of licenses:

They’re opening up Yaoi Club, and if you sign up early you MIGHT get some kind of coupon, which is awesome.

Ring Finger novel 4 just came out in Japan a year ago, and novels are harder to translate, but it’s in progress. 5 isn’t out yet in Japan. Our Kingdom 6 and Kuroshima-sensei’s Passion are delayed thanks to Biblos’ bankruptcy. Art of Loving 2 hasn’t been created yet.

They try to ignore scanlators, and don’t want to start sending C&Ds out, which is a stance they can only do as long as books sell! So buy ‘em if you read them online.

Cold Sleep has two more volumes, both Biblos titles and therefore in limbo. There might be good news by the end of the year.

Mobile phone yaoi? Maybe.

Yay for these.... and probably about half of the rest of the list once I figure out which ones they are. XD Hope the rest of those biblos-affected books hurry up already.

BUT: Why do these license lists keep coming with NO Naono Bohra on them!?! WHY? Injustice!!
