Catchin' up

So, it's been a few weeks since I've been able to update (yay, for midterms). A couple of things have happened in the world of BL since then.

First, DMP has launched a new line called Doki Doki which seems to be a mishmash of BL and shoujo. I like to call it transition manga. Those manga you read when you're between the ages of 13-17. Before you move onto josei and more mature BL. I'm hoping soft titles such as Sea View will be the type of manga published under this label.

Second, in Deux's most recent newsletter they announced a new contest for the month of March: For this month, we would like fans to submit a wallpaper, static banner, flash banner or original art of any of our feature titles. Submissions would be judged on creativity and design. The prize would be advance copies of our March release titles. Not having to purchase Future Lovers vol. 2 sounds like a pretty sweet deal to me. I think I might submit something.

Right Stuf is currently having a sale on all TokyoPop titles, including their BLU line. This will be a great time to snatch up great titles such as Tea for Two and Love Pistols (I'll never get use to calling it anything other than Sex Pistols).

For something yaoi-ish, someone in the KakaIru community on livejournal linked to a page that Halco stored some of her more naughty KakaIru pics. Go here to check 'em out. Please respect the artist wishes and don't post them anywhere without her permission.

Lastly, I'm just gonna pimp a little comic I've been following over at Y! Gallery. It's called Do Aliens Dream of Green Sheep and it's a real cute story about a man receiving a little help in love from a very interesting source. Be sure to rummage through the rest of Ealynn's gallery because her art is fantastic.

See ya guys tomorrow (hopefully)!
