TENSO alternatives?

hi
I know there are quite a few Forwarding service for Japan but I've google and gone thru the major websites and found in their policies they pretty much won't help ship if its pornography! The main thing I'm buying is adult doujins, so it pretty much is a no-go.
So far, TENSO is the only fwding service I know that is willing to ship/fwd H-doujins. I know there are some sites that you can have them buy it for you, but obviously the fee is higher and more importantly, it takes them time (1-2 days) to get back to you. I just want a fwding service that works like TENSO but isn't TENSO.
Why don't I want to use TENSO? Main reason is they don't know how to package doujins well. My 1st time using them was last summer and i there was 2 occasions where my doujins were damaged cause they don't know how to wrap doujins tightly (even with requesting extra bubble wrap, they still screwed up!). Second main reason is if you have large orders, figuring out what order is from what is hard as TENSO doesn't provide the domestic package tracking number nor the invoice found in the parcel (even though it should be damn easy to just find the invoice slip and give me the info, believe me, I've asked them several times and they simply refuse to help me). TENSO will only give you their own ID number that they assign to each parcel. Often, I have to manually try and track down which order is from which Toranaona or Melonbooks shipment in order to assign a value to my package at TENSO (otherwise they can't consolidate nor ship it).
There's other reasons but I don't want to go into too much detail and start a pointless argument.
If anyone knows of a fwding service like TENSO and WILL SHIP h-doujins overseas, please share the info! Thanks !
