Notes
  • The company was renamed from Seiji Biblos to Biblos in spring 1997.
  • Published yaoi and sometimes hentai titles.
  • Went bankrupt on April 5, 2006.
  • Libre Shuppan took over Biblos's series and magazines after Biblos went bankrupt.

Hekitensha, a publishing company which dealt primarily with joint publications and self-financed works, had ceased operations around the middle of last month, and filed for bankruptcy on the 31st of March. This started off a chain reaction which resulted in two other publishers filing for bankruptcy protection effective April 5th in Tokyo District Court: Biblos, an affiliate company that handled Boy's Love publications and which Hiroaki Yamamoto, president of Hekitensha, was the CEO of, and Highland, a creditor company which also dealt with Boy's Love material. There is no word yet on what will happen to other affiliate companies of Hekitensha, such as the e-book publisher Bibloport.
