It’s too soon to talk about this. It will always be too soon.

Galette has made some structural changes in shipping and is moving ahead with Volume 4. I hope we can make this even more successful. In today's darkening climate supporting queer and Yuri manga is more important than ever. Celebrate Yuri with Galette!
