Yes, a delicious update celebrate on Valentine’s Day after a year gap, along with a serious post. After you’ve had your fill of the lewd, please jump to which sections you are most interested in, I have quite a bit to go over.
A number of factors I ended up burning out after a non stop push for six years, and I had to step away for what I had hoped would be at most a couple months - that turned into a year! I was always around, but I needed to get myself and my life back to square one; now that I have, I will work smarter and more efficiently to prevent another burnout. My goals are to return to a level of output both by posts and pinups, and go even beyond - but it will be slow at first. As I balance my life better and balance my social media work with the rest of my life, I will ensure things will come out faster, and I will take on all the projects I always envisioned myself doing.
I have so much I want to do. I still need to do audio releases of Ranmabooks comics! I want to start another blog! I want to explore game making! I want to bring back commissions. I can’t say I will do it all this year, but I will work towards it, and thank you all for your patience!
20+ Years and the Future
2026! While in some form or another, Ranmabooks co-owner SHADE had been working on Ranma ½ hentai for 25 years, It was 2006 when Ranmabooks sowed their oats onto the internet. There have been many changes in that time! When Ranmabooks first started there were no subscriptions! The ‘books’ in Ranmabooks was the art team and the writing team (Deep Star, SHADE) busting their asses every month to release a finished product. To remove the limitations on how epic our stories could be, and to keep up with the costs of production, our subscription service Ranmabooks Defenders came online in 2009! With Defenders, our stories became longer, girthier, and sexier. Combined with multi-weekly updates of pinups and short comics, the fun was endless! In that time we had explored other product lines including Justice Hentai. We have come a long way, done so much, and now we have reached another moment in time where we need to change to keep going.
I’m sure you know, but making art isn’t always easy, and that was before the merchant account companies started wagging their fingers at our content. After their ever increasing limits and our ever increasing frustrations to said limits, We have chosen to no longer associate with those companies, and so we have made Patreon our primary payment system. Even joining at our Trainee Tier at $2 a month you will gain access to plenty of content, with even more rewards including for those joining at our Defender and Champion Tier. Any support from those tiers builds towards the 'lifetime support threshold', where if you stick with us for a while you can get access to the full archived legacy of our work spanning over 20 years! There is just so much content on the site, and it can be yours, with all proceeds go to ensuring newer, fresher, and delightfully more lewd and kinkier content like our own Visual Novel that is in the middle of getting an update - Join us, and help us keep going!
BUT WAIT, THERE’S MORE!
Summer Moon Remaster
To celebrate our humongous milestone, it is only fitting that we celebrate with you one of our most ambitious projects ever conceived. Summer Moon. Over 100 pages, it is packed with action; filled with comedy; has an epic story; is loaded with all kinds of bikinis, nudes, and lewds; and we are going to share it with you: YES, YOU! Summer Moon is getting an absolute remaster, and will update first on the Patreon, and then it comes to the public sphere! We intend to do weekly updates lasting all year and yes it will go everywhere. And we hope that if you used to give to Ranmabooks before, or even if you never had, you will consider buying us a cup of coffee a month, only $2, because we want to give another 20 years and we can’t do it without you. Let’s do this together!
