I remember years ago there always a lot release of Hentai in both subs and dubs and uncensored, but now there less and less. So is Hentai losing market value in Western world?:puzzled:

don´t think the popularity is decreasing, just atm there are more subs than ever before at a time, mostly of censored stuff though, as the amount of licensed material is indeed decreasing atm, which means a loss or smaller amount of dubbed material though.

As soon as the U.S. companies like Critical Mass Video or Kitty Media has got rid of their release date problems we will be back to normal soon, I think.

Please don´t forget that japanese companies like Pink Pinkapple or atm even Vanilla have skipped their licensing, and the new companies like PoRO, Mary Jane, Chichi No Ya, Girls´talk or companies like Anime Antena (Pixy) and Suzuki Mirano never gave any license for any title they released yet.

The only company still in licensing business atm seems to be MS Pictures with it´s Milky label.
