According to the official site for futanari-themed doujin convention Futaket the date and location for the fourth iteration of the event have been confirmed: Futaket 4 will take place on May 4th, 2008, at the Tokyo Toritsu Sangyou Boueki Center Hamamatsu-cho building. This building is operated by the same management that instituted a reactionary anti-doujin policy last October, so it’s encouraging to see that an arrangement has been reached that will allow the event to go forward. The future of ABC (the event that sparked the furor last fall) is still in question, and given the lingering climate of unease surrounding erotic doujinshi I don’t think this announcement from Futaket can be taken for granted either, but it’s definitely positive news after a solid year of doujin bashing. We’ll be tracking further details on Futaket 4 as they emerge. (no more)
I had no idea about the whole adult doujinshi crackdown thing goin on. That sucks.
Will you be attending Futaket? As odd as this sounds, I loves me some good futanari action lol. Couple of favorites being AskRay and Orimoto Mimana.
Good news indeed in face of all the goosestepping bootjacking of things that are not viewed acceptable outside the norm.
Bravo!!

I definitely plan on being there, hopefully as a circle. There are several other events scheduled for that week that I’m interested in as well (Genshiken only doujin event, Comic 1, Dream Party, etc.), so it’s going to be hard to prioritize, alas.

Here’s hoping this trajectory of recovery continues through the year without any sensational media headlines to set things back any further.
I think I might drop by and see what all the fuss is about – Unless of course some figure show is on, then that takes priority.
99 days till I arrive in Japan!
