This blog posting will only cover licensing announcements that matter to Crimson Flower Readers.

We got a lot of great licenses, 3 of which were former Omari’s Sister projects! Please buy the English releases and support manga licensing in the US.  I have a feeling that new batch of licenses will boost the industry and we’ll see a lot more manga in 2015. A bright manga-filled future is ahead!
