AarinSecret Issue #4 (Summer 2014)

AarinSecret Issue #4 (Summer 2014)

The above pics are both front and back covers of the same magazine edition.

This issue features:
For this edition, AarinSecret will be featuring a double cover, both front and back, starting with Penguin Frontier and ending with an awesome artwork by Black Monkey Pro.
I am pleased to announce two artwork debuts by Penguin Frontier (for the cover) and Aphin (for a tutorial). These artworks are new and have not been shown anywhere before this, as well as many never been seen before photographs of events and cosplayers that we have kept and waiting to show everyone.
There are also exclusive interviews with various people like the director of Squared and also famous cosplayers such as KingxMon and Stayxxx. Also, a special cosplay tutorial by Kaien Yuu.
Otome's Way also mentions about their products.
Some reviews of manga are featured too and more...
Oh yes, do take note that there is nothing overly explicit in the magazine and the covers are work safe. And if you're curious about me, I have written an AarinFantasy FAQ inside too.

Oh wow... looks really great in print!

I bought it.. ehehehehe :)

Oh! I will try this one! Looks awesome thanks.
Also aarinfantasy-sama have you thought of making a digital version selling version of this one too?
Some members may want to help you in pay it and get the magazine online? Of course you can always get a special feature to please the ones you buy the digital version? Though this is only a opinion ^w^/

awesome!

I'll go and buy it :D

though since I'll be on holiday for the coming 2 wweks, is it possible it will be shipped later on purpose so that I can be back home? It would be too bad if it gets sent back because I didn't get it from the post office or sth...
Is that OK @aarinfantasy;?

Looks beautiful as always!
@aarinfantasy; two questions -

will we save on shipping if we buy multiple copies? :huh: Only cuz if it will help... I can buy several copies and distribute from California. :lol:

second, our names/a message won't be written inside them like last time, right? Only cuz if I buy multiple copies, I need to know if I need to look in the individual books to separate them... or decide beforehand who is getting them. :lol:

Will there be a limited amount of copies printed?

I'm having a bit of trouble loading the PDF version... seems like only the first page loads and the rest... well... doesn't. Am I the only one experiencing this problem?? :huh: Downloading the JPEG version now~ :lalala:

Am having problem with the PDF version as well. Downloading Jpreg zipped
Thank you very much for the issue. ;)

@HokaHoka ; Well, I did thought of it at first but I guess it's better to ask to support by donating to the forum instead... this also helps to keep the forum alive. I am actually taking this opportunity to get some support for the fund since forum isn't as much activity as we used to have (as I mentioned in AarinSecret intro). But thanks for your suggestion.

@bronakopdin ; Yes, you can send an email or purchase first, but with a special note at the side you will want to get it after a certain date.

@laketica ; I am not sure how much cost that will save, but I can look into that and will need to ask the post office how much first. I want to know how many are you planning to buy in one pack first so I can specifically ask the post office person. And no, this time I am not writing anything inside, so no worries. So please let me know how many books you have in mind? Thanks.

@Twinstar ; Currently, I have 200 copies printed only. If there are leftovers, I will be selling it at a local convention at the end of this year.

@aarinfantasy; thank you :D I already ordered my copy yesterday and added sth in the email, I hope it was enough! :hug:

@Dids; and @SeikunPhoenix ; Just tried the PDF and it works here. Can you please try the latest PDF reader? Recommend to use: Foxit PDF Reader or Adobe's own PDF viewer, both are free.

Yes, thanks. I will get the orders sorted this week with the other's orders.

Augh! I wish I could purchase the printed version. Would have been awesome to get a printed card of PenguinFrontier's artwork. Unfortunately, I don't have any extra cash. *faceplant*

Le-sigh. Aside from watching moths flutter out of my wallet I totally love this latest issue of AarinSecret.

Thanks so much for always taking the time to feed our needy Yaoi hearts with both your site and the magazine.

Cheers!

Bought it!!:mlfy::yay: I can't wait! :happy:Thanks everyone involved with this issue! :wakuwaku:I hope there's more in the future! :onegai:

@aarinfantasy; I was thinking of just distributing them in the US for anyone who might trust me :lol: I was thinking it'd save on your shipping but I remember last time you shipped them separately anyway - I'm thinking the cost difference must not have been significant so meh >< I'll just buy my copy now! :lalala: Thanks~ done!

I'm in it! ♥

Thank you very much, it is gorgeuus! :raiseheart:
For those who have problem downloading the pdf version, try Right click and save as. It worked for me. :oops:

Yay, it works. Thank you very much for the recommendation. :wink:

Ordered! I can't wait to receive it! It looks wonderful!

Question! Would you ever consider re-leasing the previous issues in print format? I would LOVE to have those in my collection!

Thanks, I got your order~
Ahhh we are not going to release previous issues in print because 1st and 2nd issues were only digital, and the 3rd one has limited 50 copies only. Re-print in small amounts are going to cost a lot, so it's not possible I think because it's not cost effective, sorry about that. ^_^;;;

Ordered! :D Can't wait to get it ^^
