@zhimeows asked to see all of the times Lucky Dog 1 was featured on the cover of Cool-B magazine, so I will be responding by making a Proper Post on my Proper Yaoi Archival Blog. These aren't in the best quality possible as most of them are in jpg format, but it works!
Presuming I didn't miss any, Giancarlo and Co. have been featured on the cover of Cool-B 29 times! These include both the special 100th volume and the final volume, with Cool-B ceasing production after it's 115th volume in 2024.
29 out of 115... Lucky Dog 1 made up 25.217391304348% of all Cool-B covers!

New key visuals for Luckydog1 Stageplay -Bet and Run-
Yesterday the official Luckydog1 stageplay account shared a new promotional image for the upcoming stageplay production Luckydog1-Bet and Run-. This new stageplay will feature the same cast as last year's stageplay Luckydog1 on Stage and the performances will start on May 22nd. Earlier this month, the account also released new individual pictures of the actors which I've also included in this blog post. I think it’s still a bit unclear how much this version will differ from last year’s stageplay, though the original 2018 stage adaptation also had several retellings of the same story, so this stageplay might follow a similar approach. For the schedule and more information please check the official website!
A smattering of some of the stuff up on my vinted atm! Otome and BL fans rejoice. Why worry about the hassle of looking for the good stuff when you can get it from a fudanshi in the UK? Can arrange for international shipping!
The LuckyDog1 Official Visual Guide Book, omegaverse BL, Lamento wall scroll, handmade Dramatical Murder pins, Diabolik Lovers Keyrings...a yaoi oneshot signed by the original author? I have it all atm and more, it seems.
I think vinted would only ship within the UK, but if anything catches your eye and you're elsewhere please let me know!
I have plenty of worldwide experience in shipping (both the mailing variety and uh you know ;D). I am more than happy to list on other platforms (like ebay) or sell directly to you. Please note all the yaoi I currently have listed is definitely not suitable for children! The Noizi Ito one is fairly safe (with just some mild artistic nudity) and an absolute treasure, though. Happy to take offers on anything.

Synopsis:
It all starts with the slam of a prison door. Four captains from the same Mafia family, the CR:5, are taken out in one fell swoop and left to rot behind bars.
Lucky for them, our hero’s already there.
Gian’s just a run-of-the-mill wiseguy, passing his time doing petty jobs for the family when he’s on the outside and living the lazy life when he’s in the slammer. But those easy days come to an end when he gets word from the boss: if he can break the captains out, Gian will earn a spot at the top of the hierarchy.
Can he pull off a job this big, or is it more than even Gian’s fabled good luck can manage?

Amidst fears of such turmoil by no small portion of the population, a man who was once exiled from Helman rises to action.
Years prior, Prince Patton Misnarge fought to prove his worth by invading another country, but failed and disappeared from the public eye. Swearing to take his country back, Patton trained and returned a strong and admirable man. He sought to make use of the peerless champion he met on his journeys to fight to revolutionize Helman.

Synopsis:
Humans and monsters shared the Continent in a delicate balance for over a thousand years, but it all came crashing down.
The most powerful fiend, Kayblis, seized power over the Monster Realm and led a colossal army on an invasion of the Human Realm. Unable to stop quarreling amongst themselves, the human nations were trampled.
Two weeks after the war began, the death toll for humanity reached approximately 12,000,000.
Yet mankind still couldn't unite, and the turmoil between the world's leaders continued. Just as the demise of humanity, the worst case scenario, weighed heavy on everyone's minds...
"Everyone should just work for me. I'll crush that Monster Army no problem."
It was Rance, back from an adventure with his companion, Sill.
There was an uproar among the world leaders:
The Kingdom of Leazas's Queen, Lia Parapara Leazas.
The Kingdom of Zeth's Viceroy, Magic the Gandhi.
The Republic of Helman's President, Sheila Helman.
The Free City Alliance's Representative, Copandon Dot.
The eastern island of Nippon's Lord, Kou Oda.
The world's largest religion, Alicism's Pope, Crook Mofus.
...And they were also Rance's women, so they all agreed. Rance became humanity's supreme leader, and their final hope.
Over 6000 years a minuscule creature called Kayblis fought and slaughtered his way to the very top of the Monster Realm. A conceited man named Rance who declares all woman to be his lived a carefree life and found his way to the top of the Human Realm. Both men put the survival of their entire race on the line in an inescapable struggle to the death.
It means, I’m screwed *laughing painfully*. Well actually it’s not hard, but my Japanese is shitty, I just understand partially.
Gaccha
Formation (they can be trained, for lvling)
BATTLE (quizzes with timer)
And LOL, the quiz is not always LD1 related, depends the section. There’re anime, game, student quiz, etc. For example; I got questions about Nodame Cantabile, Tokimeki Memorial, and even about foreign language.
And there’s this corner (sometimes popped after choose the right answers) (which I don’t understand in what condition this one is triggered) (these are not questions, more likely choices based on players majority? idek).
Favorite desert is... (LOL): Pudding or Jelly.
Speaking of Shoujou manga masterpiece, it means? Hana Yori Dango or NANA.
