Holy crap! Yes, finally Embracing Love has come back to the yaoi fans! They said it couldn't be done, and DMP and SubLime have been both denied to get it, but SubLime and did it.

Some of these look like interesting titles. How is the quality of SuBLime releases? ^^

These are some great titles, very excited about the Yaya Sakuragi and Sakae Kusama. I can't help but feel a tinge of disappointment though at the big title rescue. I had been looking at the hints from Sublime and I was hoping it was Junjo Romantica or another Blu title.

I know Embracing Love has a place in the hearts of older yaoi fans as being one of the first yaoi titles avaliable in the US, but Be Beautiful has been dead for a long time, I had come to terms that I would never complete it. I should be excited about it but Junjo is a fresher wound, so I'm a bit bitter. Sad

As to Sublime's print quality it's pretty nice. All the volumes so far have come with color picture inserts in the front and there hasn't been really any awkward translation issues (that seem to plague every other June volume I buy these days).

Oh, okay that's good to hear!

I was curious because, like you said sakuragtin, sometimes June's quality isn't the best, so I was wondering if SuBLime was pretty good, or just more of the same sort of thing.

I was disappointed on junes kizuna translation .. I cringed every time I read "young sir" instead of young master can't even image what they were thinking (tried to replace it with young master in my head ... wants to get white out ....)

I'm excited about some of these titles (Sleeping Moon, Match Seller), and I hope the company continues to do well. Although, like sakuragtin, I'm disappointed to hear that Haru wo Daite was the big reveal. I never had any interest in the series back when Blu had it, and I still don't care about it now.

...because you can get more then 1 translation from the Japanese kanji, they don't just mean 1 meaning, they can mean different things.

Excuse me. Be Beautiful. Regardless, that doesn't change how uninterested in the series (and the rest of her works) I am, and was hoping for something else. But for those who enjoy them, all the more power to you.

As much as I'm excited about the other titles as well, hands down seeing Haru o Daiteita/Embracing Love (Appropriate re-title, imho) is easily what has me the happiest.

I absolutely love this series, and I wish more yaoi/BL creators made series with both depth and passion like Ms. Nitta does.

Especially happy to see the Kano Miyamoto, and of course the Yaya Sakuragi. Thanks, SuBLime!!
