[Let's Play Around With Char] Char's Success Story - Char’s Success Story Returns Again - One After The Other (1980)
[シャアをネタに遊ぼう会] 続々シャア出世物語 (1980) 昭和 55 年

The 3rd release of the Char's Success Story imprint by the circle Let's Play Around with Char (1979 - 1982), featuring the works of Shio Sato (Haruka Sato, Simone Yotsuya), Ryutoshi (Ryutei, Ryutei-an, sometimes Tomitoshi, TomeTome, Tome-an) Lcy, Shisei & Yaroll (Toru Yaroll).

As documented and known in the realm of Gundam doujinshi, Char's Success Story is one of the first erotic yaoi novelizations that was ever created during the original run of Mobile Suit Gundam. While the circle AMA (Tokyo Animenia Army) was the first to release an erotic Gundam parody at Comiket, Shio Sato's works would come after and become a cult classic. Due to the fame of the imprint, the circle was able to last for some time before disbanding in 1982, supported in part by a voracious fanbase in their native Yokohama as well as broad features in subculture magazines such as Animage and OUT.

★Provenance:

This particular volume doesn't seem as if it showed up at Comiket butu features an advertisement for the BL circle ASYLUM. This would mean that the group was well aware of Mari Hibiki, Hayato Naito, as well as Rio Yagizawa to name a few.

This particular book features a mix of works, art and otherwise, from late 1979 to early 1980. Publication Date: February 1, 1980
