Not sure if this is the right place to ask, but I'm wondering if Fakku plans to collaborate with Kon-Kit and bring his work to the west? Cheers.Definitely on my list.
Should be working now! Will take a few minutes to get caught up and send out all of the notifications.
Thanks for making this post and letting us know.

Actually, we used to do this back before FAKKU went legit! I'd go to Japan and bring back tons of doujin then list them on the store.
I'll see if there's a partnership we can make with one of the local shops in Tokyo, something might be possible but not for a long long time.

I just downloaded the latest version and did some quick checks based on previous translation mistakes I've seen.Any translation errors (or additional bugs) should be sent to Denpasoft

Let's move this conversation into the new thread I just made, locking this one.

We'll have an update really soon everyone, we were able to get a lot of the problems fixed. I'll make a new thread sometime over the next 2 days with details.
First off, it's important to note that FAKKU is not the publisher or developer of this game, we are only the distributor (like Steam). That means we don't have the power, or ability, to fix issues when they arise in games we haven't published ourselves. Such is the case with Maitetsu, we've only been able to help move things along.
In recent weeks, there has been a lot of discussion and concern from the community regarding the 18+ release of Maitetsu published by Denpasoft and made available on FAKKU. On our end, this time was spent investigating the situation, discussing solutions with both Denpasoft and Lose (the original Japanese developer), and having the developer implement those solutions. In this post we will cover what has been changed with this update, what has not been changed, and what happened.
That said, we've updated the downloads for Maitetsu and the Maitetsu (18+ DLC) to include the latest updates and bug fixes found below. If you downloaded the game before today, July 31st 2018, you should re-download it now to get the latest version.
What has changed
Below is a list of what has been changed/fixed in this update.
What has not changed
Below is a list of what has not changed and the reasons why. We were told by Denpasoft that this is a complete list of the remaining differences between the Japanese edition and the now updated English release. I have provided screenshots showing the differences between both versions.
What happened
Following the release of Maitetsu, a number of users reported issues with Maitetsu and the Maitetsu (18+ DLC). The reports showed comparisons between the original Japanese release vs the localized 18+ release. In these comparisons, a number of differences were shown, such as what appeared to be the All-Ages assets being displayed instead of the 18+ assets from the original Japanese release. While all hentai scenes in the game appeared to be completely fine, there were reports of some 18+ assets and voice lines missing from the game.
We immediately reached out to Denpasoft to see if they had any knowledge regarding these reported issues. Denpasoft began investigating the issues to determine what went wrong and within 24 hours they were able to reproduce the problems on their end. It appeared as though the build they were given had been created using the consumer version (All-Ages) as a base. The All-Ages version is a modified version of the game to comply with non-18+ platform regulations (like Steam). During development, the consumer version (All-Ages) was used as a base to provide users with the extra content that had been added to the game. The developers then patched on top of that to re-add in the 18+ scenes which led to the problems.
All parties involved met in-person during Anime Expo 2018 to further discuss what could be done to solve this for everyone. The publisher informed us that some aspects could be changed and others would not be. They expanded on this, explaining that the version we were given is how the developer Lose intends the game to be in their upcoming re-release in Japan (this re-release has not yet been announced). The Japanese edition of the game will be updated to match the English edition, including the above changes.
Over the past few weeks Denpasoft has been working with Lose to create a patch for the approved changes, as well as fixing all bugs that had been discovered. We received this patch and have since updated both the Maitetsu and the Maitetsu (18+ DLC).
Final statements
Ultimately, the remaining differences were decided by Lose, the creator of Maitetsu. After talking with Denpasoft at length, I trust that they had no ill intentions behind these changes, rather it was something specifically requested and forced on them by the creator of the game. I’d like to thank Denpasoft for their hard work in dealing with this situation, and being proactive in trying to find a solution in a timely manner that benefited both the users and the original developer.
Maitetsu is still a wonderful game with almost 50 hours of gameplay and beautifully animated hentai scenes. We at FAKKU pride ourselves on uncensored and uncut content, wanting only the highest of quality for our users. We understand that this release did not meet those expectations. As always, we will be providing full refunds on all purchases of the game if anyone is not satisfied, and we have removed the terminology of the release being “uncut” from our pages as to not cause confusion for users.
We’d like to thank everyone for their patience regarding this situation and hope you will still enjoy Maitetsu in its current form.

Sorry for the radio silence, we're waiting to get the final details after we meet with the publish in Japan next week (one final time). After that we'll make a public statement about the situation.

Have to agree. Picking the third over the runner-up is weird. I still hope this particular fan no hitori book will be released in the future.It was my special pick, I love PANDRA!
Unfortunately we are still waiting on an update from the publisher, I'll reach out to them again today and find out what the delay is.
In addition to My Bride is the Demon Lord!? (the winning option in our Kill Time Communication licensing poll) I decided to pick one more title to publish through FAKKU Books... PANDRA!
PANDRA is one of the most infamous hentai series ever released. I had the honor of meeting the author, Erect Sawaru, at Anime Expo 2016 when this book was announced by another publisher. Pandora’s Box is a legendary artifact known only in ancient fairy tales. The legend states that once found, the person who opens it will be granted any wish they desire.
Shirley White knows this isn't just some children’s fable and is hellbent on using its power. Her quest has led her to become the newest student at Olympus Royal Magic Academy, the final resting spot of the mythical box.
As Shirley works her way through each and every obstacle in her path, not even the innocent friendships she makes along the way can stop her from pursuing Pandora’s Box., not even the innocent friendship she encounters along the way. Known as the “White Tentacle-Haired Princess”, she possesses powerful tentacles that she uses to ensnare her prey, submitting them to indescribable forms of pleasure and pain. They’ll put up a fight at first, but they all fall victim to the thick smell of ecstasy as they drown in a sea of cum.
Is Shirley ready to unleash the powers of the box, even if it reveals an ugly truth that will affect her past, present and future? And is she willing to destroy her only "friend" in the process?
Pandra is FAKKU's first release from legendary hentai manga artist, Erect Sawaru. The first volume in a series of tentacle-filled fantasy tales,Pandra combines high fantasy tropes such as magic, mythical beings, and an academic setting found in some of the most popular hentai titles today.
