Someone once asked me why the otaku world is so accepting of doujins. The answer to that has nuances. But to condense it, they serve as practice and marketing material. Newbie illustrators and mangaka often get their start with doujinshi. Likewise, those often pervy books bring new fans to the franchise. Those often pervy books introduced me to titles like THE iDOLM@STER, Love Live!, and Blue Archive. And that’s a sentiment that many people reading this can empathize with. Doujins rule! And the best doujin is an affordable one. Luckily, our Golden Week sale is here to give you 15 percent off on all doujins shipped from Japan, so here are my recommendations.

Everyone Needs an iDOLM@STER Doujin
I’ll admit a doujin introduced me to this series, but I have to watch it. I don’t know everything about THE iDOLM@STER. I just know that Madoka and Yuika are some of the most lewdable waifus on the planet. People agree with me on that, so keeping their doujins in stock is harder than keeping the peace in the Middle East. But fear not, weeb-kun, we have a Madoka doujin in stock! And it’s amazingly horny!
The Nagori Yuki doujin by circle OrangeMaru (art by YD) is one of the sexiest books in our library. In this raunchy 40-page doujin, you’ll see the kawaii Madoka getting pounded like a porn star in Producer-san’s car. And it’s as intense as it is satisfying. YD’s art is beautiful. I know that’s an “overused” term, but everyone knows that “beautiful” is the best word to describe something when it speaks to your soul. And this doujin speaks to my soul, mostly because I want to wiggle into Madoka like I’m a tapeworm. Without a doubt, plenty of others would like to do the same. But we can’t — life sucks, and then we die (unless you touch Torres del Paine). Thankfully, if you buy this doujin for $18.70, you can live vicariously through it! Order it with glee here.
Iroha wa Cho Muri Genkai Giri Nano Deshita (Iroha Was Totally at Her Limit)
Have you watched Cosmic Princess Kaguya!? I haven’t, but I know the girls, especially Iroha, as Tsukuyomi is lewdable AF! Being yuri, the anime and its characters also lend themselves to lewding. I like to think that those things made Circle Murai Mura and the artist Murai Mura pour so much love into creating Iroha Was Totally at Her Limit.
I’ll admit that Iroha wa Cho Muri Genkai Giri Nano Deshita isn’t for everyone. Some people will glance at the moe-ish, slice-of-life-styled artwork and say nah. Others dislike yuri, and while J-List doesn’t judge, I do. Not liking yuri is kinda gay. Ask yourself — “Why do I need a dick in your doujins?” Moving on…
While Iroha Was Totally at Her Limit is on the shorter side with only sixteen pages, Mura-san’s art makes the $10.20 price tag totally worth it. So, smash that “add to cart” button.
Blue Archive for the Win!
I swear that 95 percent of Blue Archive weebs know of it because of R18 fan art. And that’s why Circle Horizontal World can afford to release a massive, 190-page Blue Archive omnibus doujin. The multi-tale beast has eight different stories focusing on a different Blue Archive waifu. Whether you like big-busty characters or slender waifus — Horizontal Archive has something for you!
I must mention that Horizontal Archive is the only main recommendation on this list that doesn’t feature fully colored illustrations. But with so much steamy content and Matanonki’s stimulating art, that’s not an issue. Matanonki’s shading and tones give Horizontal Archive that quintessential doujin feel. The art is tempting to look at. Or to put it in more crude terms. Horizontal Archive = boner. If my opinion counts for anything, $27.75 is a solid price for a lewd tome like this. If you agree, get your copy here.
A Doujin for the Road
Did you know that with the naked eye, you can see approximately 3000 stars? That’s about as many doujins as we stock. Well, that’s hyperbole, but you get the point. If the products I plugged in this article weren’t to your liking, what about the A4-sized Prinz’s Wonderland? This steamy 52-page, circle Dishwasher1910 work features the oppailicious Prinz Eugen from Azur Lane getting railed like her WWII counterpart!
