New shipment of hard to find books arrived a few days ago and they've all been restocked and ready to buy again. Most of these are out of print and pretty hard to find - there's also a couple brand new books that have been added to AkaTako. Enjoy!
A little note on Toshio Saeki - the artist is no longer signing copies of his books so the signed ones are increasingly hard to come by.
Feb 20, 2014
Six new Namio Harukawa drawings are now available by special order. Each of the six are a bit more extreme in their content and all of them have pink and red color accents. The very rare "My Fair Fat Lady Vol. 1" is also back in stock!
