Any chance of Fakku picking up where Project-H left off in regards to Johji Manabe’s Makunouchi Deluxe and Ring x Mama as well as Rumi Matsunami’s Naughty Wives? They didn’t finish those and they only needed one or two more books to be completed. I’ve tried asking Project-H about finishing them but they don’t seem to understand my questions to them.
Would also love to see Fakku licensing Makunouchi Deluxe and Ring x Mama. I love Joji Manabe's work!
To add to what you said, I remember that they started releasing the physical copies of these two series, volume 1 and 2 of both, in 2013 and 2014. They subsequently released the third volume of
Makunouchi Deluxe and the volumes 3, 4 and 5 of
Ring x Mama all at the same time in July 2015. I realized they all released them at the same during an anime con during that summer of 2015! If I remember well, I talked to a local book store and they said it was almost impossible to have stock of Project-H books at that time. It seems to me that they rushed, for some reason (maybe financial and/or licensing problems?), the release of all the remaining volumes of both series at the same time and maybe in too low of a quantity versus the demand. So it seems I'm not the only one that never been able to buy them! They also doesn't seems to have reprinted them since.
