Here is Chapter 1 of “Orange Chocolate,” our newest project. Sapphire Pyro wrote a great introduction to the series on Hyper Parfait. Many thanks to Pyro!
Just a warning, the main female character, Chihiro, does refer to herself in the third person. I wouldn’t interpret this as she’s being narcissistic, so much as in her head she is still 4-yrs old. I think we’ve all seen quite a few manga and anime series in which little kids refer to themselves in the 3rd person. For me it was a bit off-putting at first, but now I see that it’s just part of Chiro’s charm. My hope is as the story progresses, Chiro will mature and quit talking like a 4-year old. I guess we’ll just have to wait and see.

Give it a read and give me some feedback.
I’m working on chapter 2 now (scanning) and I expect it to be released in 7 – 10-days.
Aside of the main girl's childish behaviour, I too agree and hope she grows out it as the story goes on. The story does look promising though!
Thank you all for scanlating this first chapter! ^__^ Keep up the great work!
Thank you for the release! That was fast!
I loved this chapter. *O* The drawings are beautiful and the story seems interesting. I found this chapter touching and the cliffhanger at the end makes me think this story will be exciting.
The link isn't working for me *sighs*
I guess she's more of being childish instead of narcissistic. Perhaps her mentioning herself in third person annoys me so much that I've been jumping to bizarre conclusions =_= I've seen other characters who are also like that, and they also annoy me (there may be exceptions but I can't recall them at the moment). Hopefully as the story progresses, she will quit talking like that.
Personally, I think the main female character is one of the cutest in shoujo manga. ;D
I can't wait for the next chapter, this series is really interesting~
Can't wait to see what happens next! 😀
Thanks so much for the lovely scanlation!~
kyaa >_< another genben >_<

thank you so much..
i'm waiting for the next chapter ^^
Thank you for the release 😀 I actually liked the first chapter! Thanks for your hardwork :] I may be stupid or blind, but I think I missed the part where she talked in third person so it didn't really bother me.
@samantha-lim88: I get an error too, but when I hit reload it comes up. I will change the link to a direct link to fix the error.
Thank you!!!!
Wah, i'm so happy XD
I loved this manga. Natsu “onagata style” drawings are just perfect. It gave me a lot of inspirations. Right now i'm searching for more informations about onnagata ^^
Thank you so much for scanlating a wonderful series! I have the raws but my Japanese is not good enough to the point where I can understand without a fault. Thanks again!
@Master Neurotic: I'm glad you like it! If you like the art work in this chapter, then the end of chp 2 will be a real treat!
Thanks! 🙂 This really looks interesting~ Pretty art too *~*
