Where do you usually get news about upcoming drama CDs and situation CDs?
It doesn't matter whether they're all-ages or R18, commercial or doujin. If you use different sources for different categories, I'd really appreciate it if you could mention which source you use for what in the comments!
I'm thinking about creating a Drama CD News thread, similar to Otome Game News, so I'd like to do a bit of research beforehand to find out which sources are the most comprehensive and least likely to miss new releases.

To be honest, no where!! theyre such a niche fandom and im not confident enough in my japanese to browse JP forums or social media for it. Sorry that I cant be of help but I guess my point is that if you made news threat for drama cds I would be eternally thankful !!

For me, it's mostly about following circle accounts, the official DLsite account, and the official Pokedora account on X (Twitter), as well as subscribing to newsletters from various platforms. I also rely on retweets from fellow situation CD fans and recommendations on my X timeline. That's pretty much how I get my updates!

I see, that makes sense! I totally understand. It's become really hard to keep up with new releases now that so many news sites and roundup blogs have stopped updating.
And there's absolutely no need to apologize! If anything, knowing there's interest in something like this gives me the motivation to keep working on it.

Got it! Thanks.
It wasn't this active before, so I haven't made a dedicated X account for it.
But X (Twitter) really does seem like the easiest place to get information, so I'll go ahead and make one!
Also, subscribing to newsletters from various platforms is a great idea.
There are quite a lot of them though, so it might end up taking a fair bit of time to go through emails, but I'll give it a try!

I'm following some of circles, favorite seiyuus' account on twitter. Mostly the algorithm timeline brings me other circle's new title works tweets or some of JP fans reviews' tweets on the title works they just bought so that's why I don't have much trouble getting the latest info.

Also, I have a tab on my browser that contains DLsite based on the name of my favorite seiyuu along with the tag "upcoming title released" and that's why I'm still up to date with their latest works

I've only started paying more attention to BL ASMR CDs since this past April. I noticed that a lot of people in Japan share curated info compiled from DLsite. Before that, my main sources were mostly X (Twitter) and the official release websites.

That's a great idea—thank you!
Keeping a DLsite tab open and setting it up with the "upcoming releases" tag is a really good way to stay on top of new ones.

Nice, thanks for your comment!
Is there actually a roundup site somewhere? If possible, I'd really appreciate it if you could share the URL in a non-clickable format.
If you meant "curated posts" on X (Twitter) and similar platforms, then hmm… I might start to worry about whether I'm really catching all the information. That's because people usually filter things by their favorite voice actors or specific settings.

forgot added this https://sithyou.com/ that recently released. Haven't added some of my purchased/heard title works on my profile so I can't reveal my account but it's really neat that they have real time timeline so you can see some of members without following them talking about sitCD

Oh, I know this! I'm a heavy user of it lol. It's such a great SNS!
I saw the admin post an announcement, but I couldn't really understand it because it could be interpreted in a few different ways.
Do you think we'll be able to get new release information on this site as well? That would be amazing if so!
