A Victim of Unfortunate Circumstances

Long-running eroge magazine Dengeki Hime will be ending before the end of the year. It’s unsure whether this was due to the recent merger between the Kadokawa and Dwango groups (effective October 1st) and/or recent declining sales. It’s a shame since they’re usually bundled with some good tokutens, but this resulted in a higher cost. This means that TECH GIAN and PUSH!! are the two main monthly eroge magazines which remain, and readership for print media (not only in eroge circles) will only be harder to maintain in the future. Let’s hope for the best and support them if you can!

mintCUBE is a new sister company of CUBE, CUFFS and Sphere. Their debut title Ama Koi Syrups ~Hajirau Koigokoro de Shitaku Naru Amagami-sama no Koi Matsuri~ will come out on February 27th. The artists are Pan (Sakura NoReply) and Suimya (SDs for CUBE/Sphere).

Other new titles announced this week include:

Gesen18’s Sengo Muramasa has been set for February 27th.
