"Nanatsu no Kururi" Chapter 2

K3

Updated 10/3/2013:  Page 10 stitch completed. For those archiving the series, you should re-download. Here is the second chapter of “Nanatsu no Kururi”.  It’s a short, but sweet chapter showcasing more of Sumire’s incredible kindness. I love how he doesn’t judge the subject of this story.  In a way it seems almost like a Biblical New Testament parable. If only people in real life were this lovely. And now onto the release!Links to “Nanatsu no Kururi”: (PDF) (Zip) Next up! I don’t know!  Hee!  Regardless we’re at least 3 days away from being able to release something.

S&M Oneshot: "Sakashima" by Amuji Nanakumo

K3

And now for a change of pace.  This is an S & M oneshot but it’s very tame. It’s very psychological and the there is very little violence. There are a few more psychological oneshots planned for this fall. This is probably the least freaky one, so watch out for them. Oh! I forgot! This was translated by Devlynne Sloth, the newest translator at Crimson Flower.  Let’s all welcome Devlynne! And now onto the release! Links to “Sakashima”: (PDF) (Zip) Next up will be “Rex Fabula” Chapter 12! Continue reading S&M Oneshot: "Sakashima" by Amuji Nanakumo
