BluPetal Media Announces Kickstarter Campaign for Sakura Kurihara's Atmospheric Yuri Masterpiece, ‘Let Me Fix You’
CALIFORNIA — March 12, 2026 — BluPetal Media, Inc., a boutique publisher and media company dedicated to celebrating Boys' Love, Girls' Love, Shoujo, and Josei content, is thrilled to announce the launch of its latest Kickstarter campaign: the first English-language publication of Sakura Kurihara's haunting Yuri drama, Let Me Fix You (Kimi wo Tsumugu).
Let Me Fix You follows Tsumugi, a meticulous seamstress who discovers a strange, profound connection with Chise,a girl caught in a fragile state between life and death. As Tsumugi uses her needle and thread to literally and figuratively "fix" her friend, the two embark on a dark, tender, and strangely funny exploration of devotion and grief.
“Sakura Kurihara is a visionary in the world of atmospheric Yuri,” said Dallas Middaugh, CEO at BluPetal Media. “With Let Me Fix You, she tells a macabre and heartwarming tale about the beauty that can be found in the broken. I love this manga and our goal with this Kickstarter is to provide this story with the premium physical treatment it deserves—high-quality paper, exclusive collector's items, and a translation that captures every ounce of its emotional weight.”
Comment from Sakura Kurihara
Hello to all the readers in the U.S.! I am truly honored to have this wonderful opportunity to share my manga with all of you. Now, let me ask one thing: are you a fan of zombies? Because I know I am! I hope you all enjoy the endearing zombies I've brought to life in this story.
Comment from No.9 Inc.
"Let Me Fix You" is a profoundly tender story. No matter how heartbreaking the journey becomes, readers can always feel a genuine warmth of friendship and affection shining through. I firmly believe this is a story that only Sakura Kurihara could have woven—an artist who deeply prizes human connection and approaches both her craft and her readers with unwavering sincerity.
The Kickstarter campaign features several exclusive tiers for backers, including:
● Premium Physical Edition: High-quality paperback with possible dust jacket.
● Bespoke Bookish Merchandise: Acrylic standees, postcards, and signed bookplates.
● Community Milestones: Stretch goals include the dust jacket and three additional short stories by Kurihara-sensei.
