Anyway I've started writing fic again, at least for now, and I'm going to try to focus more on things like that. So if you want to find me somewhere less....like here....

i feel so disheartened and powerless. AI is a fucking disease. i don’t want 2000 books a year if the quality is shit. do they think we’re buying books just to make them collect dust on the shelf and look pretty

[maru is tired 🫩 @marureviere_]

this whole situation is honestly so dejecting for those of us constantly rallying for eng license, only to find out that one of the biggest english publishers has been acquired by a company that is pro-AI.

if AI ends up being used, I won't be supporting your releases anymore.

[Painted @paintedrecs]

@gomanga Thanks for the responses. You'll need to make a much bigger announcement about that for the probably thousands of people who preordered the Special Edition and will have no idea that edition no longer exists. Not all retailers auto-cancel with notifications.

[Painted @paintedrecs]

@gomanga Does that mean we have to cancel our existing preorders of the Special Edition then? That's pretty confusing.

@SuBLimeManga @Honeyofstars I came here looking for this too...is the next Candy Color Paradox volume not getting licensed?

@yiggybean Any new status updates for the Little Mushroom manhua? Just wondering if they've hit further delays in customs

[Painted @paintedrecs]

@ivantillzine Have the half bundles been shipping yet? And are tracking numbers being sent when they do? The last update I see is for the book bundles being complete

[Painted @paintedrecs]

@yiggybean If you're able to offer POs for the complete box, I'd be very interested in you as a goodsmile alternative!

[Painted @paintedrecs]

@ivantillzine @sashstarry @sir_gguk @nukumorri any updates on shipping?

[Painted @paintedrecs]

@diabellquartz @ivantillzine Have you gotten a response yet?

[Painted @paintedrecs]

@ivantillzine @nukumorri Hi, are these shipping yet? The last update said mid- to late July so I was checking in for a new status

[Painted @paintedrecs]

@kitten_ruby @elong8994 @_anillani_ I've been waiting for the physical release of Even So, I Will Love You Tenderly since like...February of last year and the PO just got cancelled again. I don't think they're doing physical releases anymore but also aren't informing anyone about it...

[Painted @paintedrecs]

Hey @junemanga do you actually exist as a publisher anymore? You haven't been giving ANY updates or showing any indication of any activity? And now my preorder of Even So, I Will Love You Tenderly got cancelled again because you missed its release date?

[Painted @paintedrecs]

@junemanga What is going on with your release of Even So, I Will Love You Tenderly? Are any of your titles actually going to print at this point?

[Painted @paintedrecs]

@LinnsManga @GholiHav @courtbanashi i LOVED depth of field and am so upset that they're the one that got its license, because there seems no hope of ever getting the next volume...

[Painted @paintedrecs]

@yiggybean Is Even So, I Will Love You Tenderly actually releasing in July? B&N is showing it on backorder until October, with yet another delayed release date...

[Painted @paintedrecs]

@BN_care Hey, your site is down - trying to buy during your preorder sale, do you have an ETA for it being fixed?

[Yiggybean Books + Gifts @yiggybean]

@kumapub My preorder for this book has now been cancelled. Is it still coming out in print??
