⚠️ What is NOT Confirmed ⚠️

I will make additional posts as further information comes out leading up to April 30th, such as the full, digitized magazine cover, content updates, and links to purchase this Emerald. Support the official release when possible!

Emerald announced a few days ago that they’d be releasing a preview like they did for last issue via their TikTok account soon. (x)

It could be uploaded any day now, so I recommend following their account now before they lock the account to follower-only once it’s posted!

From April 26th to April 28th, we will be holding a Takaritsu-centric event to celebrate the long-awaited Day 0 of Ritsu's love countdown!

On April 30th, the real-life Emerald magazine will release its 2024 Spring issue, which has been revealed to include a 68-page chapter of Sekaiichi Hatsukoi in which Ritsu's love countdown will hit zero days! To celebrate, we will be holding a three day long event a few days ahead of the magazine's release!

this was originally meant for @takaritsuweek last year but I forgot to post it lol

anyways vote sih in this poll <3

if anyone has any idea about these German dub actors from the second Season 1 disc of SiH for any of these characters I’d be eternally grateful, the box and the on-disc cast list have been no help at all:

For those who keep up with Sublime’s English release of SiH, a few days ago the release date for Volume 16 was finally put up across a couple of book storefronts! At the moment, it’s slated for July 11th, 2023!

I’ll drop the links for the current available websites to place pre-orders through in a reblog to make sure this post makes it into the tags, so if you’re looking to support the official release, check it out!

Sekai ichi Hatsukoi will be getting a German Dub!

Hi all! Some fandom news, Sekai ichi Hatsukoi will be getting a German dub, with the first episode being streamed on Kazé Germany’s Twitch and YouTube channels July 26th at 4:00PM in Germany.

In addition to the episode, there will be a live interview conducted with the dub-voice actors for Hatori Yoshiyuki and Yoshino Chiaki. There will be no subtitles for non-German speaking viewers, but it still wouldn’t hurt to show up to the stream to show support for the first group to release an official dub of a Nakamura property! 

Additionally, the company has licensed Junjou Romantica as well, but has stated on Twitter that no date is confirmed for its release at the moment. So be on the look out for more news via Kazé’s social media channels!

I will include any relevant links in the first reblog of this post so it can make it into the tags, so please refer to those below.

The stream will be taking place at the following links:

I started posting this fic back in March and wanted to start promoting it on Tumblr for each of the updates. It uses the end of Ch. 32 of Ritsu’s story as a jumping off point and is 8 chapters in so far. I’ve been updating weekly and hope to keep that up, so please take a look if you’d like!
