Saigado Publishing

Saigado Comic Publishing (Saigado Publishing) is a h dojinshi circle famous for publishing hentai parodies, especially of game console fighting games. The Saigado studio frequently parodies the King of Fighters, Neon Genesis Evangelion, and Guilty Gear X in its doujinshi. The Boku no Seinen Kouken-nin series (Seinin-series) and Hana's Holiday series (Hanasan no Kyuujitsu) are two original works by the studio.

Saigado has a distinct style with rounder, less messy, and arguably more realistically drawn characters than a lot of their source material. Despite the wide range of fetishes depicted in Saigado comics fans are often pleasantly surprised to see all participants enjoying their couplings. The lack of rape, realism in depictions of sex, body type, and even atmosphere/backgrounds make the Saigado Studio one of the best artistic studios in Doujinshi publishing.

Members of the Studio
Ishoku Dougen is one of the main Saigado artists. His prior works, before Saigado, were in another circle called Moriman Shouten. Moriman Shouten published a series of books called Katze which feature a distinct Saigado art-style. Dougen participated in Katze 10 to the final volume, Katze 15, and additionally Round 2. Round 2 is a single book featuring only Dougen's artwork. The original publication of 'Suite For My Suite' by the Saigado studio was drawn by Ishoku Dougen.
