Not only did Akinosora do the cover illustration for this month's issue, their new sisters themed series that was teased last month is about to kicks off now in December. Hota. is back with the steamy follow up to Love Spa, and we once again return to Kerorin and the Flower Shop of Eros.
Unfortunately, this issue comes out in the middle of the Thanksgiving holiday, so I have to keep the preview a bit shorter than usual. I hope you enjoyed your holiday, or your upcoming weekend if you don't celebrate it, and look forward to the first few chapters coming out in the middle of next week!
Artists: Akinosora (cover), nohito, Dagashi, Hota., Sakida Saki, Yaki Tomato, Akinosora, majoccoid, Tsukino Jyogi, E-musu Aki, Amezawa Koma, Suzuki Nago, Ekakibit, Satsukiasha, Solopip B, Navier Haruka 2T, Tajima Particle, Kikaider Reijiro, Shikkarimono no Takashi-kun, Yoshida Inuhito, Hiru Okita, Mogiki Hayami, Shiunsanchou, Kerorin, Chika, Osomatsu, Heriyama
Since this preview is rather short, I'd like to take this opportunity to expand on a related topic, so check out the post below if you're interested.

The topic of magazine completion is something that comes up every now and then, so I'd like to share some insight on this subject.
From an outside perspective, it's hard to do much more than speculating. For instance, now that we're starting work on the new X-Eros issue next week, some of you might feel concerned looking at X-Eros #48, realizing that only half of the chapters have been released so far. Kairakuten is in a similar situation as well.
However, the fact that a chapter hasn't been released yet doesn't necessarily mean it's stuck in our backlog. The last months of the year is a particularly tough period for us, with a lot of time off in combination with extra large end-of-the-year special volumes coming out from each magazine. Our main priority is to continue the steady stream of daily content we've had since the launch in around September of last year. The winter is coming, and we need to stockpile a decent amount of releases to get us through the remainder of December. Leading up to New Year's, there's at least a full week (usually 1½ -2 weeks in actuality) where we can't produce any new content, but still want to release about a full magazine's worth of content during the same period.
Any other time of the year, we'd be putting out extra chapters whenever the release queue starts filling up (which by the way is something that will happen more frequently once we enter 2017), but right now we're likely going to stick with the regular release rate for the rest of the year to make sure we don't run out of content in late December. Although, to make up for this, we have an early holiday present planned for you in the very near future!
To wrap up and go right back to where we started, what is the current status of last month's Kairakuten and X-Eros? Below is a summary of what it looks like after our Thanksgiving holiday. Taking into consideration that we basically have until the end of each month to finish up the issues, we're exactly where we want to be with both of the magazines with just over half a week left to work on them. You can expect to see most of these in December, mixed in with newer chapters from the latest issues, and of course more Shitsurakuten releases as well.

Majoccoid sure is good at drawing bamboo.
Oh, and thanks for the explanation. It's always nice to know how things works.

DAYUMM, knowing Suzuki Nago from his Shoujo M series, I wonder what kind of mentally torturous masterpiece they will deliver!

Some sequels and a new Akinosora series? I'm happy...
By the way: My guess for the holiday present is the announcement of the forth subscription magazine...

I always appreciate the opportunity to learn about the inner workings of FAKKU. I had a feeling that you guys had the goal of keeping a steady pace in releasing content to have stuff continually come out.
Anyway, this month's X-Eros cover looks awesome! So sexy! I'm definitely excited about some of the chapters in this issue, especially the followup to Hota.'s Love Spa.
