Lately, I've been thinking about seriously studying manga. This is Yanaponte. :3
This week, rather than writing a WIP blog, I think I'll talk about my memories of a certain label.
I was surprised to learn yesterday that the Gagpara website has disappeared.
I've known about this site for roughly 20 years, so I feel both shocked and sad.
The niche concept, [swimsuit + tape restraint] , is very seductive for me, and perhaps because I was an adolescent when I knew it, I was honestly satisfied with just the small thumbnail image and the short introduction.
It was after I moved away from my parents that I plucked up the courage to buy the first video.
I still remember the indescribable excitement I felt when it arrived in the package.
By the way, that's ⬇️. (I also drew several pictures of this person as a model)

After that, it became available on FC2 and DUGA, and as a result of it becoming easier to get hold of, I think I have amassed quite a large collection of videos.
Of course, there are other videos that feature swimsuits and tape restraints, but there are scenes where they use so-called toys, where they took their clothes off too early, and where they include sex scenes…
As a person who has sexual aversion, I thought, ``These scenes are tough.''
In that sense, I may not have found a label like Gagpara.
Well, I don't know how old the founder of Gagpara is, but considering that he's probably around 50 years old, and that he hasn't updated anything for many years, it's no wonder the site disappeared. :/
Well, I still feel a sense of loneliness, similar to how I felt when I couldn't watch Flash movies anymore, as if an era had come to an end.
I'm vaguely wondering if a spiritual successor to Gagpara will come out of nowhere.
Honestly, I feel like the makers of those days (which already existed in the early 2000s), led by Reijo, have shrunk in size considerably.
Everything is impermanent. I thought it was really strange to think of what these words meant in a place like this.
See you next week!
