Yakiyama Line - Raisin Bread 01

(Cover/links removed thanks to an anonymous whistle-blower/DMCA/Google. Meh, no use arguing with the weather right? Look elsewhere, it's the internet, you'll find it.)

I needed a break from "Aneki" (not that there's anything wrong with "Aneki" but it's murder to edit) so here's some new.... er... old Yakiyama Line.

Unlike the other stuff from Yakiyama, there're no young schoolgirls, no fugly old dudes and nothing blantantly unconsensual. So if you didn't like their other stuff because of that sorta thing, give this one a try. Otherwise, it's much the same as the rest of Yakiyama's stuff.

Thanks so much man, Raisin bread 1 & 2 are some of my favorite h-mangas ever! I've got my fingers crossed that one day Yakiyama Line gets over his schoolgirl rape fascination and makes Raisin bread 3, even though it really doesn't seem possible after so many years. A man can dream, right? Gotta love that beautiful art, and those lovely faces so full of expression, in any case.

Anyway, love your work, so thanks.

Glad you liked it.

If it makes you feels better, it seems like some artists get their footing by working some niche and then move on to things more mainstream. Perhaps the schoolgirl rape thing is just his niche.

So what you're saying is, if I understand correctly, because Yakiyama Line's art is so incredible, he'll gradually become more and more well known, at which point he'll be so big that creating h-mangas will actually be his primary source of income. When that happens, he will make more 'raisin bready,' less 'rapey' style mangas, in order to sell to mainstream consumers, most of whom find the rape repulsive.

Did I understand correctly? I guess it kind of makes sense. Not having experienced Japan first hand, and having seen some of the bizarre fetishes that come from there, one can be led to think 'oh, hey, everyone in Japan thinks tentacles are sexy' or 'all Japaese think women should have penises.' It's kind of encouraging to think he may change direction in order to cater to a growing fanbase because those are niche audiences. I hope that's how things play out.

Even if it isn't, I'm still gonna read his mangas, even when they involve themes I find repulsive, because his art is some of the best in hmanga.

Thanks for translating and sharing! Really appreciate it!

It's a nice hentai manga, even though it looks like it's pencil-drawn. (The artist must have been rushing to meet the deadline, he forgot to pen it. :-)

Thanks a lot and keep on translating!
