Frequently Asked Questions
Q: “Is there an age restriction?”
A: Yes! This is an NSFW project. You MUST be 18+ to participate and follow the Zine Twitter account.Q: “Who are the mods and what are their credentials?”
A: We will be introducing our Moderation Team in the coming week!Q: “How long would the fics be? ”
A: Writers for this zine will have a 3.5k maximum word count for their fics.Q: “Is there a requirement on how many pieces an artist would have to do for the zine?”
A: Artists are limited to one piece for the main zine. They can either do a 4-page comic, a 2-page spread, or a single-page illustration.Q: "Would there be equal parts fic to art?"
A: Our plan for this Zine is to maintain a 1:2 ratio of writers to artists. Right now our ideal distribution is a total of 10 Writers and 20 artists. This count includes guests.Q: “Will you be inviting guests? If so, how many?”
A: Yes! Our plan is to invite 2 Guest Writers, 4 Guest Artists, and 2 Guest Merch Artists.Q: “Is this zine for profit or charity?”
A: Ecchi Eijirou is a for-profit Zine!Q: “What do you define as bottoming?”
A: Our official stance is that bottoming is the act of being on the receiving end of some form of penetrative sex (i.e. facefucking, pegging, fingering, etc.). However, this does not mean that Kirishima can’t be portrayed in a dominant role.Q: “What does Ecchi mean?”
A: In Western fandoms ‘Ecchi’ is a term used to draw the line between sexually explicit content and sexual suggestive content. It’s normally characterized by more playful, soft-core sexual themes and imagery hence our cute, flirtatious branding.Q: “Will there be stretch goals?”
A: Yes! We are exploring options for potential stretch goals as we speak! We are also waiting for the Interest Check to conclude before finalizing those details.Q: “Will people besides popular fandom creators have a real chance of getting into the Zine?”
A: Yes! Moderators will be reviewing applications with certain guidelines in mind. They will be provided when we are closer to opening Contributor Applications, but we can tell you now that following and social influence are not guidelines by which we judge applications.Q: “Will you be putting a limit on the ships?”
A: Yes! There will be limits in place. We look forward to presenting a project filled with both popular and rare Bottom Kiri Ships!Q: "What are the mods looking for in contributor applications?"
A: Click here to access our contributor application guidelines!Q: “How does a merch artist work? Do they pay for everything or does the zine help pay?”
A: Being a merch artist is much like being a regular artist. Merch artists choose or get assigned merch items to design for the zine. Their final design(s) are submitted during the check-in and then given to our vendors for production. The money made during pre-orders is what covers the cost of production.Q: “Do contributors get something? Like free zine+ merch? How much is each artist/writer paid?”
A: Contributors will be guaranteed a physical copy of the zine if we do not break even. If we do break even, contributors will be given a full bundle plus extra profits. The additional compensation depends on how well we do during the pre-order period, and those profits will be split evenly amongst the moderation team and contributors.Q: “Will the packaging be discreet?”
A: Yes! All orders will be shipped in a plain box or bubble mailer.Q: “Will vers Kirishima content be allowed in the Zine (such as him and his partner switching off as top/bottom in the same piece), or will every piece be bottom-exclusive?”
A: Neither switching nor allusions to switching are allowed in this zine! We are presenting exclusively Bottom Kirishima content!
