This comes as a complete shock. I really wasn’t expecting this to be picked at all.

this is a common misunderstanding, Renta! does have some original Licenses titles they translate but like bookwalker, they also carry just other publishers title to sell (ie: June titles) that they did not translate or license.

so this is how SuBLime is able to get the printed and digital. they judged that the title would probably still be sellable and decided it was worth re-translating even when a digital version has been released already.

the western market for BL is growing and I am hoping more printed versions get release.
