And when I say ‘makes me’ I mean that in the lightest sense, because I am always down to read something a little bonkers with a lot of nudity in it. Saint Tail, based on the manga of the same name by Megumi Tachikawa (released by Tokyopop in the early 2000s and now sadly out of print), has had a tough time of it in English release.

First published in Japan in 2019 by Libre, the first volume was recently released in English by SuBLime, Viz Media's BL imprint, and has been met with a ravenous response on social media.Others who have bought and adored Dick Fight Island praise its unexpectedly well-developed worldbuilding and distinctive characterization, which aren't immediately obvious from the cover alone. Sales like this and so fast usually mean we have gone beyond the target audience and picked up readers who would not normally read yaoi.
