| Wonder why Leave it to Piyoko is in limbo. I'm guessing it didn't sell very well. |

Probably. They would sure win support if they did follow-up with posting titles on dot-anime. At least you could read them there if they were not in print. All publishers should consider this option for titles they are going to stop publishing. There are probably issues with licensing though...
 With titles like Sexfriend, Broccoli sure lives on the edge. I guess they found a niche market.
Are they behind the curve with Cosmode USA? Is convention attendance going up? I don't know, but it feels like they are late getting to the party with this one. |

How is having a yaoi line living on the edge? TP has Blu. DMP has their Yaoi & 801 lines. Amazon actually cancelled my order of Sex Friend as unavailable (along with countless Drama Queen titles) & I've been wondering about it. |

Oh, I got this wrong. I thought it was a manga adaptation of the Sexfriend OAV. Sex Friend ≠ Sexfriend. |

Actually, the reason is because there is no alternative layout person out there. The layout person, whose name I forgot, is doing some other important job and that's why it has been on hiatus for a while. Probably not the best choice of words I wanted to bring out, but this is what I can remember. |
