The two stories Yomimono has run under this name are not the same entity: one covers Fractal Design's Radius all-in-one liquid CPU coolers, now on sale in Japan, and the other covers a bug fix in Konami's Gradius Origin Collection. Radius has no current status that both stories support.
Radius is not one subject in the stories Yomimono has published under that name. The most recent story is about a product line: Ask has begun selling Fractal Design's Define One and Summit mid-tower cases and Radius all-in-one liquid CPU coolers in Japan. Radius coolers come in RGB and non-RGB versions and start around 17,080 yen. That story belongs to a case-and-cooler launch, not to a game or series.
The earlier story is about Gradius. On August 3, 2026, Konami Digital Entertainment released update Version 1.004 for Gradius Origin Collection, fixing a bug in the newly developed Salamander III that appeared after players cleared 128 or more loops. The bug reset the maximum selectable loop count in stage select when returning to the title menu. The 128-loop threshold drew surprise and praise on social media, since Salamander III raises difficulty with each loop. Konami has not said whether the bug was found through actual play.
The collection released August 7, 2025, for Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and Steam. It includes seven titles and 18 versions, with arcade entries such as Gradius, Salamander, and Gradius II, plus the M2-developed Salamander III. The two stories share a name and nothing else, so a single current picture of Radius cannot be built from them.
