"Kanojo ni Naru Hi Another" Chapter 6

K3

“Kanojo ni Naru Hi” and “Kanojo ni Naru Hi — Another” will be releasing in Japan and on this blog on alternating months. “Kanojo ni Naru Hi — Another” comes out next week in Japan and “Kanojo ni Naru Hi” comes out in November in Japan. Both are in separate bi-monthly magazines, so that’s how it works out. This chapter feels like a turning point in the story. To be honest, I can’t tell where the story is going from here, which is kinda exciting. I’m not even sure I know what I want to happen in the next chapter.  … Continue reading "Kanojo ni Naru Hi Another" Chapter 6

Miyoshi and Mamiya are back! The story picks up with them a year after Mimaya came out of her cocoon again. At this point, Miyoshi and Mamiya are college students in their early 20’s. This series is a little more mature than the original series. I look forward to seeing where the series goes. So without saying much about the chapter, let’s get on with the release!Links to “Kanojo ni Naru Hi” Chapter 6: (PDF) (Zip) Next up is “Kanojo ni Naru Hi Another” Chapter 6 this weekend.

"Bread & Butter" Chapter 3

K3

I’ve been trying to get on a monthly release schedule for this series, but so far we’re still about 60-days. It’s a tough series in all ways, so I guess we’re doing the best we can. Oh well… In this chapter we learn some more about Hara’s past. Yuzuki gets on my nerves with her silly assumptions and then totally pisses me off by acting and speaking because of her silly assumptions. I found myself yelling at her while translating. Seriously, if you don’t know the situation, shut up. I can’t handle people who act like Yuzuki. Hopefully with this, … Continue reading "Bread & Butter" Chapter 3

"The Ghost Apartment Manager" Chapter 13

K3

This chapter is a continuation of Tatsumi’s story. In this chapter, though, the perspective changes to Kanie, the person who Tatsumi is worried about. This time I took the time to give Tatsumi a distinct accent. I probably laid it on too thick. Oh well. There’s also some more development of the relationship between Sekka and Usami. I can’t seem to think of Usami as being suspicious. I think he’s lonely like Sekka and wants to be friends. Granted he may want to make use of Sekka’s ability to see ghosts, but given the way this series has been going, … Continue reading "The Ghost Apartment Manager" Chapter 13

New Short Series: "Danshi Gurashi" Chapter 1 by Mai Mishikata

K3

We’ve been sitting on this short series for a while. We finally have a typesetter, so hopefully we can release the rest of the series soon. This series came out in Hana to Yume in 2013 before “Lip Smoke”. It reminds me of a modern day “The Odd Couple”. The series is pretty low-key and pleasant with a some fan service thrown in once in a while.  Basically it’s fujoshi bait, so fujoshi, go at it. I, on the other hand, will take this for face value. I think Doujima looks like a younger version of Seta. And now onto … Continue reading New Short Series: "Danshi Gurashi" Chapter 1 by Mai Mishikata

"Sabaku no Harem" Chapter 2

K3

Look what’s back! I wasn’t very impressed with this chapter because it’s pretty standard for a desert harem series, so I wanted to read the third and fourth chapters to see where the series is going. Both  chapters are lots of fun, so I decided to grind through this second chapter and continue the series. This chapter isn’t bad or anything, it’s just that it’s the standard “Somebody tried to poison the Prince” chapter. Mishe and Kallum go at each some more. I love their chemistry. We also get a few more details about Mishe’s upbringing, which leads me to … Continue reading "Sabaku no Harem" Chapter 2
