Ikebukuro, Japan — Manga Planet is excited to announce the license acquisition of two adult manga titles* from Rush!

Sugar Dating

Story and Art: Tadashi Manabe

“Hey, Shouma… Have I maybe soured your rosy image of me?”

Shouma works as a porter in a brothel. He was living a meager life that was far from the city life he longed for. Then, a miracle happens: He reunites with his first love, Yura Honjou.

With her naturally gorgeous looks, Yura started working in the entertainment industry while she was still in high school, and was completely out of Shouma's league. And now, she's right beside him…?

Shouma is completely ecstatic at this turn of events, and Yura is snuggled up right against him. With her warm breath in his ears, she reveals her body to him. “Y-Yura… We can't… Do this…!”

What is the fate of Shouma, who's dancing right in the palm of Yura's hand…!?

This Woman's Body Tells Lies
Story and Art: Kazuma Ichihara

"I'm counting on you. I want the best."

Our protagonist is Keita, a young man barely scraping by day-to-day. After he wins a rare game of pachinko, he finds the courage to talk up a woman: the beautiful Rinko, who is unexpectedly receptive to his advances! "Today's my lucky day!"

But Keita's elation is short-lived, as he soon realizes that Rinko has actually mistaken him for a mysterious man named "K", renowned as an "artist" among his female clients!

In search of pleasure, Rinko sidles up to Keita... "Hey... How long do you plan to keep me in suspense?" But what could she possibly be expecting? Keita is practically a virgin!!
