So what was the big news yesterday? Could it be this little item from MangaCast, where Japanese BL publisher Libre accuses Central Park Media of publishing works in their Be Beautiful line without Libre’s permission? Yes, I think so. Here’s an excerpt from Libre’s press statement:
We wish to make it known that these publications are considered illegal because they have not been authorized by us. It should also be known that the cartoonists and authors are being victimized by this illegal act, and they are very annoyed by it.
Simon Jones has commentary (as always, certain images are NSFW), as does Tina Anderson, and the folks at Yaoi Suki (you have to register to read the comments).
MangaCast, Brigid and Dirk are all following the story, so expect more updates today.
