Ero manga info
Takomemo collected some bits of info released in some of the ero manga magazines. Not comprehensive or anything.
From Buster Comic
- A really popular ero gekiga artist in the past doesn’t get any work now and appears to have a lot of free time.
- Eromanga involving bestiality
Most eromanga authors do not like drawing this genre apparently.
- Issuisha’s Izumi Comic
It is apparently forbidden to have anal stuff on the back cover.
- They get less questionnaire responses than illustration submissions
- The higher the competition for illustration submissions on a magazine, the higher the chance for the magazine to use crap authors for the contents
- Questionnaires are important
It’s important data to decide a eromangaka’s next work, and if an author is not popular they will stop getting him to do work for their magazine.
- Why TI net’s magazines are cheaper than others
They don’t have anybody at the top taking all the money in the company. It’s a workplace where the chairman and the normal employees stand on the same ground.
- TI net’s Buster Comic magazine
Basically made up of authors whose tankoubon can sell relatively well.
- How supplement magazines can become independent
Sales are an important factor. Then if it can get its own magazine code from the distributors, it will be independent finally.
- Ero manga covers
Some authors give complaints such as the colours on the skin are too saturated during the first drafts. In worse cases there are authors that try to interfere with the design of the cover before the design is even made.
From Comic LO
- The company that handles editing and production for Akane Shinsha is “Comic House”
They’re pretty big
The 2nd editorial department is in charge of Comic RiN
The 3rd editorial department is in charge of Comic LO
- The editorial department for Comic LO
They sometimes recruit editing assistants
Everybody in the editorial department started as part-time crew before becoming full time staff, including the current Editor-in-chief.
- Requirement to join the Comic LO editorial team
Got to like lolicon manga
- Request from the Comic LO editorial staff
Uploading the entire magazine or an entire chapter is not allowed.
But scanning stuff for manga reviews is ok as long as you’re not uploading everything.
- Comic LO’s catch phrase
ONE AND ONLY COMIC MAGAZINE
- Comic House runs a bookstore called Dungeon book
In New Akihabara Centre.
From Comic ino.
- Hit publishing’s Comic ino.
Catch phrase is “The resistance against adults”
Its predecessor was Shoujo Tengoku
The 2009 February issue will be its last issue
