Looks like there’s a new yaoi publisher ready to make its debut (via MangaBlog). Yaoi Generation’s website popped up when YG was listed as one of the dealers at the upcoming YaoiCon. While their website doesn’t have anything too specific, upcoming products include English edition mangas (estimated 24 a year), merchandise and a magazine.
“Yaoi Generation is a publishing company that brings the flourishing yaoi genre to English-speaking countries around the world. We are committed to delivering high quality publications to our readers, translated seamlessly into colloquial English while maintaining the coherency and brilliance of the original work. Look for our exciting titles this winter 2008!”
Rumours are already going around on if Yaoi Generation is a new independant group or a part of a previous company (such as Yaoi Press), but either way it’ll be interesting to see what becomes of this, especially in light of recent industry tremors involving Tokyopop’s BLU and DramaQueen.
