Initial Goal Funded! DMI’s Crowd Funding For A Favorite 80’s Classic Is On Its Way!

Gardena, CA (April 6, 2016)
With almost amazing speed, the crowd funding power of the people has spoken… within a few day’s time, the initial goal of Digital Manga, Inc.’s project is funded! But it’s far from over. The funding is only for the first Omnibus. There are 5 volumes more to go! The first stretch goal of the campaign, of $56,900, will unlock Omnibus 2, (which collects the next 3 volumes of the original Japanese release.) Once unlocked, Kickstarter backers will be able to add-on this second volume to their new or existing pledge. From that, the momentum will easily pickup for funding of Omnibus 3, and so forth.

https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/digitalmanga/publish-kimagure-orange-road-classic-manga

We have several reward tiers that have sold out! And requests for add-ons to be available from other reward tiers to be added to backer’s existing tiers. Comments and feedback from our supporters do not go ignored, and  considerations for new add-ons and new tiers will be made over the course of the campaign, pending on the progress of the funding.

Again, Digital Manga Inc. (DMI), thanks all backers for their continued support, and would to remind all that the mission is not over! As of the 6^th day into the campaign, we are still about 79K short from funding all volumes. Only with backer support can we hope to bring this wonder work to your hands.

Digital Manga Inc. (DMI)’s adult hentai imprint, Project-H is proud to announce some exotic and completely uncensored titles added into the catalog.

Each of these titles will be individually released starting in early spring to late 2016.

We’re down to the last 72 hours of our Wonder 3 campaign and we have quite a hurdle to reach if we want to see this great three-book series published in English (in hardcover!). If you haven’t already let your friends and family know about this great Tezuka title, now’s the time!

Remember, you can pledge as little as $70 to get ALL THREE hardcovers in the “Shinichi Hoshi” pledge tier. We also still have several limited tiers open for pledges.

• Black Jack at $151 (just THREE left!)
• Go on a picnic! at $174 (limited to ONE!)
• Leo/Kimba #2 at $218 (limited to TWO!)

We need 262 more backers at the $70 tier in the next three days to make this happen, and I know we can do it… That means that if you, our current backers, convinced just ONE person each to pledge for the “Shinichi Hoshi” tier, we’d make the goal with some $$ to spare. Let’s get a move on!

Thanks for sticking with us on this amazing journey. Ganbaru! -VED

Yesterday, we added 6 high-end tiers for discerning Tezuka fans,  including one with the very, VERY rare “Goast Man” Japanese language hardcover (two now already gone). A couple include the ever popular Jungle Emperor Leo (or, you may know him as Kimba the White Lion!), and a couple more include the irrepressible characters from Black Jack.

Our indomitable production team is in the process of putting together images for you to peruse at your leisure, and I will upload those to the main page as soon as I have them, but for now I wanted to let you get a jump start on pledging for these great items. (I will send another update when I have the images up.) Plus, all the following tiers come with the Wonder 3 three-volume set in both digital AND hardcover formats.

Make sure to check out the tiers themselves before you pledge so that you know exactly what you’re pledging for!

Less than a day left in our latest Tezuka kickstarter!

So far at the time of writing this we have hit our initial goal along with stretch goal 1 and 1.5! Just a bit more and we will be able to publish and print Crime and Punishment for the first time!

GARDENA, CA
With successful Kickstarter campaigns like Captain Ken, Lugwig B, Alabaster, and the recent Clockwork Apple, Digital Manga isn’t slowing down their Kickstarter train to publish “God of Manga” Osamu Tezuka titles, and their next project is a shojo (girl’s) title called Storm Fairy. This manga is a collection of three short stories with the first being the longest at the length of half the book, and the other two make up the rest. Their new standard will have the book printed in high-quality off-set white paper, and is scheduled to be released in October, 2015. The Kickstarter campaign is planned to start June 16th, and will run for 30 days.

https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/digitalmanga/publish-tezukas-storm-fairy-and-reprint-unico

In Storm Fairy, Kuwagata Castle is in the midst of being invaded by enemy forces and the Empress flees to a nearby forest to implore a forest fairy to save her husband and her kingdom. A deal was struck and in exchange for the fairy’s favor, the empress must give up the face of her next born child. Thus, two girls life become entwined, one who has to wear a mask to hide her disfigured face, another born with the face of the other. One day, while the Emperor and Empress are away, a usurper finds out about Princess Ruri’s curse and steals her mask so he can place his own daughter on the throne. They oust Princess Ruri from her kingdom, and while on the run she meets a samurai, Tonosuke, who takes pity on her and takes her under his wing. Hakobe, the forest fairy blessed with another woman’s face, is tasked with tricking unwary travelers but her sweet heart always leads her to help others. While on a trip into the town, she finds out the real Princess Ruri is on the run and decides to help her win back her kingdom. But, little does she know, she wears the face of the woman she’s trying to save…

The second short story, “Kokeshi Detective Agency,” has a similar tone and feel to young adult book series, Encyclopedia Brown. Little fearless Paco goes around solving mysteries for she is not afraid of things that go bump in the night while her dog friend Waco does his best to protect her. In the third story, fairy Pink from the realm of beautiful sunsets morphs into whatever she wants so she may help those who are unhappy and in need, but King Brown and Sepia from the realm of thunderstorms do their best to make people miserable.

Even though this manga is classified as a shojo manga, Tezuka still questions what is perceived as beautiful or ugly, and I love it. – Hikaru Sasahara, President of DMI

Shojo is a type of genre born in Japanese magazines that were segregated according to gender. Shonen and shojo was printed similarly like the funnies in your Sunday newspaper. Magazines aimed at boys to sympathize with WWII created the genre shonen whereas magazines aimed at girls focused on their feelings and home life created the genre shojo. Post-WWII showed a surge of girls interested in manga, and when Tezuka published Princess Knight, he raised the bar on what was acceptable for Japanese girls to read. There are not a lot of shojo titles created by men (including Tezuka), so Digital Manga, Inc. is proud to add this teen shojo title to their library.

There will also be a stretch goal to reprint Unico in sharper color, and another stretch goal to print Crime and Punishment which was previously released as digital-only. More information regarding swag for stretch goals when it becomes unlocked.

Project-H has extended this to a 2-day event, from 10am – 10pm on both days, to accommodate the ever- increasing audience demand for adult manga entertainment.

The festival will not only have Project-H books availabe, but several exclusives and giveaways, including life-size mouse pads, blankets, pillows, posters, and signed goods, that can only be obtained through participation of the event games and raffles. Hentai anime will also be screening at the fest throughout the day.

To up the ante from last year, Hentai Fest 2015 will be hosting two Guest of Honors—up-and-coming and internationally famed hentai creator, Yamatogawa. Some of his works include Project-H’s best selling hentai manga, Power Play and Boing Boing. Also appearing, is female hentai artist Kamitani, recently known for her work, Vagina Manifesto, also published by Project-H. Both guests will be doing panels and autograph sessions throughout the event and Project H is excited and proud to have both guests from Japan to appear in person at this year’s festival.
