Futanari Books, Other Tags, Props and Slops,Some Suggestions

So I decided last night on a whim I wanted to read some Hentai. I decided, hey I rather not see black bars on everything, so I picked up my Fakku subscription. I figured that it was mostly the land/bland of Vanilla still, but quality art work and odd porn plots were what I was in the mood for.

So I go on and I see that there is a slightly more interesting set of tags, and that it's more than Insert Rod A into Slot B. Awesome.

Then I go and every single thing is from a book. This is annoying. My entire first 30 minutes of using my subscription was seeing books I couldn't read, and fetishes I've desperately craved I couldn't enjoy.

So props are in order, congrats on getting more things for people to enjoy. (Even some uncensored hentai too!)

However huge slops on the constant advertisement of things I can't enjoy, not if I don't want to plop down some serious cash.

Some of these seem like a great deal, a few hundred pages for a few bucks. Then some are a decent deal, a worth while amount of pages for about the same price.

Then I see like 11-16 pages, for that price over/under.

Am I missing something? Is this the price of the entire book and buying one chapter is buying the entire book? Cause I'm seeing book prices for single chapters, thats for an entire book right? Or can you buy the single chapters?

Cause from what I'm seeing the prices are pretty terrible unless you only sell whole books and these aren't inflated prices for just a single chapter.

Mind you I have no idea why you can't include Futanari and other awesome tags. You seem to have the books of them, is it that hard to get the magazines? I don't know anything about the industry, but It's been a long while, and I've really wanted to support Fakku more than I have.

I was glad when you guys got into the actual legit business of offering uncensored.

I also hope I am not sounding like a complete asshole. These are mainly gripes and wishes, perhaps I am saying it harshly, but only because I want to support the site, give my money, and be a better customer. I have the disposable income, I rather give my time, attention, and money to you.

As it stands now I am most likely going to get that huge 200+ page futanari manga. Hopefully I am just misjudging some of the things I am seeing?

I know that you can only put up from what magazines you get, but I'm pretty sure there is more than enough following for Futanari and other such tags to get more diverse topics.

The books are a step in the right direction, but not if the prices I am seeing are for just chapters and not the whole books.

In either case I'm gonna enjoy my subscription, see if I want to continue it as the month comes to a close.

Regardless of my frustrations still hoping the site does good and that it continues to grow.

Additionally is there a way to see the free to read while subscribed and not see the books? Not that I'm against buying the books, just when I want to read the stuff that is given in the basic subscription, I don't want to see books that I have to throw additional money at.

Again, hope I don't sound to bitchy. o_o

Hi,

there is not that much Futanari in the magazines which Fakku has so there is not that much in the subscription.
It appears sometimes but not very often.

There are a few books with Futanari on this site but mostly it’s in the Doujin area. But you have to buy them individually.
I don’t think there are Futanari only magazines out there but I might be wrong.

Monthly subscription: japanese magazines and a few doujinshi and western artists. There's Doxy. It's a hard sell for more than a month if you're just into futa or a few other fetishes like yuri, yaoi and extreme stuff.

Books: around 200 pages, 10$ digital. Futabu Mix by Bosshi is futa themed.

Doujinshi: 20-40 pages, 6$ or less each. There are many Red-Rum and Futaba Yodomu doujinshi.

I've addressed similar concerns in the past, but I'll give the best answer I can.

The ero manga industry isn't much different from any other form of media. Hollywood and AAA developers tend to stick to what's safe (which typically means sequels and reboots of popular series), while the independent scene is where they innovate and create things for the niche market. It all comes down to money and risks; a multi-billion dollar movie with thousands of staff can't afford to fail, whereas the hobbyist does it as a passion project.

It's the same deal with ero manga. Commercial manga (magazines and books) sticks to content with broad appeal, while the indie scene (doujinshi) is where artists are free to experiment with odd fetishes. There are certain doujin circles that focus on a unique fetish that no one else does, and this works because they can minimize loss (or possible turn a profit) by selling to a couple hundred customers who are interested in that genre. On the other hand, it wouldn't work if you put the same content in a major magazine that goes out to millions of readers, due to the risk of alienating the 99.9% of their audience who doesn't care for that material. When a doujinshi flops, one artist has to take the loss. When a magazine flops, an entire publishing company and potentially hundreds of artists are affected.

A common suggestion that's brought up in this discussions is Comic Unreal. Looking at recent issues, it seems futanari is present in every other issue. Assuming it's a single chapter, this means that futanari only makes up 2-3% of their content, despite being one of the most prominent sources of "alternative" material. I imagine this is a similar situation as with Comic Bavel, which has a single artist who specializes in monster girl content. This is pretty unusual mind you, because typically when an amateur who does alternative stuff get published, they shift to drawing more "normal" material for the magazine.

To sum it all up, we could pick up every major commercial magazine currently released in Japan, and the ratio between mainstream and alternative content would stay mostly unchanged. As I've said before, doujinshi is always going to be where you'll find the more extreme or unusual fetishes. In some rare cases, a prolific doujinshi artist may land a book deal, which was the case for Futabu! Mix, but it's so rare it was even addressed in the afterword of the book:


This probably wasn't exactly the answer you were hoping for, but I hope it at least helped explain why things are the way they are. Also...


To my knowledge, the best way to do this would be to exclude the Book and Doujin tag from your searches. For instance "futanari -doujin"

Thank you for answering and donating your time to post this.

I'll probably just read up for the month. Maybe I'll just buy digital copies of the doujins. Dunno what I'll do. Either way I hope we can get a flavor other than vanilla soon. Not that there is anything wrong with it. Anyways thanks again.
