Futari Ecchi volumes 1-16 + the incomplete volume 17 [English, 3031 pictures], by Katsu Aki
You’re allowed to bash me, until 2 days ago, I thought Futari Ecchi was a futanari serie, so I never bothered to look at it. The older a misconception, the stronger it remains. That was until I received a long email from a kind person called Hinoron (I believe he belongs to Ranmabooks), he convinced me it was worth a shot – and worth a shot it was, thank you very much, man ! |
I repacked EVERYTHING available in English, to this day, of the Futari Ecchi serie : the volumes 1-17, with the last volume not complete yet (the chapters 160-163), plus the higher res version of the Yura Yura Artbook. That’s 3031 pages, I think I already shared smaller packs.
I didn’t just do some repacking for you. I worked a lot on the covers too. Three volumes that had NO cover, 1 volume had the wrong cover (it was just an internal color pic), and 2 volumes of too low quality. I spent an unreasonable time searching the interweb for the covers of ALL these volumes in the best possible quality (in this regard, I strongly recommend you the TinEye firefox Extension ! – oh, and try the SmoothWheel extension too, also a life-changer). I also spent a good amount of time photoshopping the covers when it could help them look OK.
All in all, I hope this repack will offer you a real value added, for the covers if you already had the volumes, in all regards if you didn’t know of Futari Ecchi yet !
So, what’s Futari Ecchi ? It’s an ecchi happy sex story.. and it’s not it. I mean, you have the “young married couple discovers sex and enjoys it more and more, building a long-lasting relation” theme, but the artist behind it also sees it as a guide towards a better sexual life for Japanese couples. The chapters are full with stats, graphs, detailed explanations about how to perform various sexual techniques (I think I’ll give a go at something about finger play soon), advice on how to make your partner happy or how to set up a mood, on how men and women “work” and how to avoid big #fail times. It was a mix of vanilla hentai and sexual encyclopedia, it was… Fascinating :razz:
(More preview pictures follow, scroll down)
I humbly apologize, I didn’t have the balls to prepare, upload, publish and organize 36 pictures gallery pages, I only uploaded two galleries as example previews, the volumes 1 and 16.
Volume 1 gallery – mirror | Volume 16 gallery – mirror
I also made a gallery with the covers only.
The Zip Download links, I divided my pack in 2 parts :
Volumes 1-9 and Yura Yura Special Artbook
(445 MB, 1657 pictures, English)
mirror #1 – or – mirror #2 – or – mirror #3
Volumes 10-17 (the vol 17 is incomplete, chapters 160-163)
(361 MB, 1374 pictures, English)
mirror #1 – or – mirror #2 – or – mirror #3
(Phiew, I hope you like it, this pack took AGES to prepare. Me, even if nobody downloads it, I don’t regret it, I learned stuff I can try at home :3 )
If this pack doesn't make a total of 200 downloads by tomorrow, I'll sulk very hard, you're warned, I spent too much time on it, people MUST read it and find it offers them a bonus !
Jokes aside, guys, try it guys if you haven't read it, seriously, it might be of interest for you !
dman right, this thing is pure. it did much sexclopedia, i used to bought them for each release in my country, and now they say i am gettting older and "get some real exp dude", well i'll say "its time for nostalgic reading"..
btw is there any hpe that you can put the vol 1-9 in the hotfile.. ty vm
To upload files over 400 MB, hotfile requires that I have a premium account. I sometimes took a one-day account because I had lots of stuff to leech from them, but otherwise, no. Besides, hotfile doesn't work for me since yesterday, I can't log in.
Don't worry, at least i will download it. I started reading this manga like a year or two ago, and god it is good, not only it has a nice story, good drawings, great humor, but also like you said, it is very educational.
So, really thanks a lot for the update, i probably will value more this upload than the GBs of regular hentai wich i have already downloaded from your site XD
this manga its very cool, but some tips that the author give are VERY old or not useful at all (so be careful with that) on the other hand the history will leave us a sweet taste and some way to be careful or be preapared for that moment
thx a lot for your effort Oliver
sorry Oliver but I read this manga online but if some of my friends wanna download it I will share the depositfiles links ;D
PS: sorry for my english not my native language
Brilliant. Been waiting for this on hrules since forever. Many thanks Oliver. <3
Thank you for all your effort in sharing this wonderful work! You also might be happy to know that the first thing I think of when I see the name of this series is futanari as well, so you're not alone.:)
Count me in as well. I've been wanting to read this for a while.
I've been reading this for a decade now..lol. What us bad is that there are over 40 volumes and it is still on-going. This will take decades to get in English if the author continues.
40 volumes??!?! O_o.
It's moments like these where I'm super happy to have a premium acct to depositfiles. I just wouldn't be able to download it all otherwise.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!
OH MY LORD, you really need some japanese lessons, for FSM's sake!
Ok, I don't really think this manga belongs here. It's funny and all, but I learn a lot of stuff from it. I don't fap to this. Really. It's like fapping to a history textbook or something.
I think this DOES belong here, on the contrary.
Sometimes it's worth sharing stuff even if it's unfappable to.
Unfappable in a good way, so to speak.
I must say, I was beginning to think (lose hope) that you would never put this on your site, I should've never doubt… Back then when I was starting to dabble in doujinshi and beginning to understand the japanese words/meanings, I was also skeptical about the title, until I saw it also was titled (officially) Step Up Love Story, I unlocked my chains and shall we say, indulge what was meant not to be left alone!!! Now I'm happy to find out other doujin that Katsu Aki has done over the course of years and I'm still thinking their might be more that's not even found…
does anyone remember which chapter this is in. The short hair sister wears a long hair wig pretending to be the main female character
Thanks Oliver! Four volumes (375 pages each) were translated and published by TokyoPop. They should be relatively easy to find. Since TokyoPop is closing you won't see anymore from them.
Translated title is Manga Sutra.
Yeah, I have those four, and was really hoping to see the rest in print. I guess the experiment didn't bear as much fruit as they'd have liked.
Thanks Oliver for the post and i just wanted to tell u that Mangafox.com has ch. 160 – 163 translated (i have no idea where they got it from)
Good, I also have these, they are the volume 17
YEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!
oh thank you so much oliver, i've been searching this manga FOR EVER! It's just so funny and interesting! thanks a lot!
Commence mockery!
Yeaaah, I knew Futari Ecchi was a straight piece a few YEARS ago, when the ANIME was moving around the trackers (there are so few now). Yeah, it got that popular. I mean, seriously, an H-manga with greater than 20 volumes? Bound to have an anime adaptation of at least a few OVAs.
(That said, I really hope they wrap Dulce Report the fuck up. It's reaching Gainax/Lost levels of plot confusion, and they're already at, what, 13 volumes?)
Woah, didn’t know they were up to vol 17, I stopped reading at chapter 94. Anyone knows what volume that chapter’s in?
(Oh, and huge thanks for the share!)
Chapter 94 was in the middle of volume 10.
Glad you liked it, you an the others
Thanks for the enlightenment. I had never paid attention to this exactly because I also had a misconception of the title. Once futanari is senseless and absurd, I would NEVER waste my time (besides, girls with dicks are not my sort of fantasy – even transvestites are more "interesting").
Also, many thanks for the recommendations on extensions. I have already installed them.
Oh, yes, I am curious to know what I can learn from this work.:D
I am so seriously thankful that you put this up that I would shout it out if I thought you could hear it!
Been a fan of this series for a over a few years but could only find up to volume 6.
seriously THANK YOU!
Just Fyi in german its available under the name Manga Love Story up to volume 30 as scans and up to volume 45 to buy
There is also Futari Ecchie for Ladies, goes well with this one.
Hahaha! THANK YOU, Oliver!
The memories…Futari Ecchi came out in Germany when I was 16 and I had one friend in our "gang" who'd buy every volume as it came out. Then each of us borrowed it and I even remember that one friend would take notes
I think we all had more thorough sex ed than the other girls in our school…LOL!
futari (ふたり/二人) literally just means two people in japanese, fyi, no relation to futanari, despite similar sounds
I got them I french if you want!!!
1 to 31!!! les francais … prenez contact avec moi!!!!
If you've got them in digital format (scans), yes, I'd be interested to read it. But as for sharing it, since I'm lazy, I can also simply post an update to tell the French version is available "on that page"
They are also for sale (translated) on Amazon.fr ;Title of series is "Step up love story".
Although I'm not into the drawing style.
49 bloody volumes to date and counting. Christ.
Nice pack. You have chapter 90 vol.9 untranslated though.
NO SHIT ?? o_O
So what about chapter 90? it's still not translated!!
I have always seen this series on stands but never cared to give it a try. Now that you have "aprooved" it, oliver, I got interested! xD
Time to download this!
wow … that is what startet it, i think, i know the books as "manga love story"
i had the first ten in german.
Well well well… I see this as totally proof that "it always pays to ask". ^_^
Thanks Oliver. I'm glad I accidentally convinced you to flip past the cover page on this one. It is quite a unique work, isn't it?
I do believe that Tokyo Pop's translations (the four giant books that came out) only went through chapter 80. so this look like it goes about twice as far. Nice.
I grabbed a bunch of the volumes when I visited Japan years ago. There was / is / might be a spin-off that was called "Futari Etchi For Ladies" – and I have no idea how it fits into the main story.
Volumes 1-9 can you put another link, like hotfile or fileserve
thanks
A great addition. "Thought it was futanari…." LOL, I wondered why this worthy title wasn't on here.
FYI, it was made into 4 OVA episodes (also ecchi, not hentai), which was released in the USA by Anime Works as "Step Up Love Story aka Futari H."
What's great about it is that it has a lot of real life situations that are dealt with in a fun way (as well as absurd fantasies, but it makes clear to keep those seperate). So, anyone who's been in a longterm sexual relationship will find plenty of familiar ground here.
OMG how nostalgic this manga is,
this is actually my very first exposure to hentai manga (hard copy chinese version)
seeing it again definitely bring back the good old memory…
vol 1-9 depositfiles normal link and mirror = 404 bad request.
That was the funnest read on hrules :o. Too bad there's 40+volumes and there's only 17 available. Left me restless to see how it continues.
depositfiles link for vol 1-9 doesn't work, it says invalid param every time the waiting time is over.
"Learned stuff i can try at home" from it indeed!
That's something you're just not going to get from, say, a Type90 manga… er… at least i hope not! O.O
Oh yes, "futari" by the way, just means "two", or I think in this case, "together".
Awww, the mere idea of bringing home something learned from a Type90 manga would be enough to get a divorce, I believe ^^
Did I think to thank you for this Oliver? That series is pleasure to read, even if you don't fap, and I hate the French version.
Would anybody know if any later volumes (there were at least 26, plus some derivatives) have been scanlated and translated? and where they can be found (so that Oliver doesn't need do that if there are more interesting things to post, it's not like the production was lacking)
I think there's a bit more that's translated, it's released chapter by chapter, you should then check the latest scanlator's blog, or mangaupdates.org

I read the first volume and what came into my mind was this: my brothers marriage lol. I’m not kidding, I go to his house, and every time I’m there, he and his wife act like little kids in love! When I leave, I’m bursting out in laughter
lol
i dont know if someone already saying this
but futari means = two people, pair, couple
its complete opposite of hitori(one person)
sorry if OOT, just sharing my knowledge
finally i was able to download all of the volumes
thanks for the amazing share Oliver
The downloads aren't working well, sometimes don't even start, and when it starts always stops. this is refering to the second part of the pack.
Hey Oliver, I think this post need an update. I think u would be able to complete vol. 17 now and start on vol. 18
Yo Oliver mind posting Volume 18-19?
can you post vol 18 ?
Looks like the group did up to volume 19 and some of the "For Ladies" side series before stopping.
Pity they stopped, 52 volumes have been released in Japanese now.
