BluPetal Media, Inc. has announced a distribution partnership with KyuNect. to bring officially licensed Boys’ Love merchandise to fans based in the US. The brand new partnership is setting sail with a batch of merchandise from a highly popular, ongoing Omegaverse series, Hate Me, but Let Me Stay by Hijiki.
KyuNect. is a Japanese merchandise label that solely focuses on the Boys’ Love genre. While this is one of the many female and LGBTQ+ oriented genres that BluPetal has under its umbrella, no denying that Boys’ Love is rightfully thriving and garnering the attention it deserves from all over the world! It’s an excellent genre and perfect work to kick off the partnership.
Tylor Starr, COO and Head of Content for BluPetal Media, comments on the partnership:
We are thrilled to partner with KyuNect. to break down international barriers for BL fans. Our audience has a massive appetite for physical merchandise related to these captivating stories, and this partnership ensures that fans in the United States can celebrate their favorite titles, like Hate Me, but Let Me Stay, simultaneously with the Japanese release. This is a game-changer for the US-based BL community.
Seven Seas Entertainment is releasing Hate Me, but Let Me Stay in English, and to align with its 6th volume on February 3rd, the United States distribution of goods started on February 4th at 12 pm PT. You can grab some for yourself or your BL fan friend from BluPetal’s online shop. Below, you can find the summary of Hate Me, But Let Me Stay from Seven Seas Entertainment:
Ever since the assault that led to his unexpected pregnancy as a teen, Koga Naoto, an omega, has harbored a deep fear and distrust toward alphas. He’s even convinced himself that he doesn’t need a mate. After all, hasn’t he raised his daughter, Shizuku, just fine on his own?
Still, at the behest of his concerned mother, Naoto reluctantly attends a matchmaking party. There he meets Tsuchiya Hazuki, a teenage alpha who declares that Naoto is his destined mate. Naoto does his best to ignore the young man’s advances, but he can’t deny the way he feels in Hazuki’s presence. Can Naoto overcome his fear and admit that maybe, just maybe, he might not hate this one alpha?
