Point of clarification - the preview images are censored because that's Takeshobo's policy for preview images. It's a holdover from their home market where they have to be more careful about that kind of stuff, I think.
The actual manga is going to look the same as it always has. No actual censoring, but the genitals aren't drawn. If you've read it when it was scanlated, it will look the same in the print version.
Also, Koi wo Suru was also licensed by Project-H, and I'm going to be translating that as well. We'll give everybody the pre-order info once it gets closer to its release date this winter. I'm pretty jazzed about that since it'll be an opportunity to make the whole series consistent across all three volumes, and there's a lot of funny moments in the first half of the series which were sort of bungled in the original scanlations.

VK is one of the few series that I ended up following because of the story, albeit it wasn't super amazing all things considered. I'm half tempted to buy this as my first published hentai just to support the mangaka and the people who helped license it.

That's so awesome! I was looking forward to it. Also, congratulations on working with the publishers on it. That's how things should be done ;)

And there goes Velvet Kiss :/Aye, kinda disappointed Velvet Kiss was removed. Not that I can't read it anywhere else (other H-sites+mangafox), but kinda feels wrong for it not to be on Fakku!
Personaly I think thats a bad almost wrong way to think of things I mean you want to support the peaple that make what you love right ? Having Money go to the creator can only support more such creations. Your not losing it your just geting a phyical copy of it for alittle money and with the great quanity of free taste testing you have goten from fakku isn't it the least a artist to ask of you to spend alittle on a phyical copy every now and then. Ok, hope I didn't come off to preachy and please excuse any spelling mistakes I can only currect what I can catch.

Fantastic news for you folks. Congratulations upon getting your foot in the door for potential venues.
Although I must say that the damned censorship laws still annoy me (nipples? Really?)
You would think that- if being released outside Japan- the copies would no longer be subject to them.

Woah yeah, wait a sec - will that nip censoring be in the published book?
If that is the case... I will seriously have second thoughts on buying.
Yeah, like LD has mentioned - the nipples are NOT censored in the manga.

Great news. A testament to and apt reward for the quality of your work. Should provide some inspiration for other small scanlation groups looking to make a difference (and maybe some money in the process :)).

Despite higher total cost, I still placed my order to support FAKKU!
I look forward to receiving this. Will have to devise a way of hiding it until I move out, lol.
