New Series: "Ojousama no Untenshu" ("The Young Lady’s Chauffeur") Chapter 1

K3

At long last, we get started on this series.  Again, this is another casualty of “Kuro Lala” and “Shiro Lala”.  Hopefully, though, now that we are started, we can put out a chapter every month or two.  This is another series with CRAZY redraws, so I can’t guarantee monthly releases, but we’ll do our best.  We are doing this series in conjunction with Heart Crusade.  Heart Crusade will be helping out with some of horrendous redraws.And now onto the series:  This first chapter was very compelling to me and I want to see more of this couple as soon as … Continue reading New Series: "Ojousama no Untenshu" ("The Young Lady’s Chauffeur") Chapter 1

One-Shot: "Komugi and the Cuisine of the World Boys"

K3

At last, we finally get this one-shot out!  We wanted to release this as our special Thanksgiving one-shot, but it got lost in the excitement of Kuro Lala and Shiro Lala.  Please forgive me Cuisine Boys!  This was a joint project with The Zero Alliance, so head over to their website if you prefer RAR files. As you can guess, this one-shot is about food and magical boys who cook food.  How could I resist?  It turned out to be a much sweeter story that I anticipated (as most stories thing do — haha).  Regardless, it was a pleasant surprise.Oh, … Continue reading One-Shot: "Komugi and the Cuisine of the World Boys"

Update: Valentine’s Special One-Shots

K3

This year’s theme will be “Delinquent Love Story”!  Considering the bunch of highly anticipated one-shots by our favorite mangaka that are going to be released in February, I’ve decided that we will only do one special Valentine’s Day one-shot. And so our Valentine’s Day one-shot will be “Heart Assassin” by Kakeru Sora.  The other two one-shots are begun, but we will not be able to finish them by Valentines Day because of: “Ojou-sama no Untenshu” Chapter 1 “Magnolia” Chp 18 and Lily Chp 3 The 60 page Bisco Hatori one-shot “Akagami no Shirayukihime” Chp 31 The Akane Ogura One-shot Continue reading Update: Valentine’s Special One-Shots

Surprise One-Shot: "Wait until it’s Dark" by Sakura Tsukuba

K3

Since we’ve been burn before on Sakura Tsukuba one-shots, we decided to be quiet about this one and wait a little while to see if another group was going to do it first.  After waiting a couple of weeks, we decided to go ahead and take the chance to translate it.  I really don’t like keeping things a secret, but I think in this case it may have been worth it. Anyhow, this is a very easygoing and pleasant one-shot.  It’s perfect for a mid-winter read.  As expected, the artwork is also very nice.Without further ado, here are the links: … Continue reading Surprise One-Shot: "Wait until it’s Dark" by Sakura Tsukuba

"Ore to Atashi no Kareshi-sama" Chapter 1

K3

We finally get this series started.  Phew! There were a lot of complicated redraws.  Thanks to Ichi and Kumiko for the great redraw work and thanks to Suzume for cleaning. This series turns out to be a lot sweeter than I anticipated.  I’m happy about that because I always like stories with some underlying heart.  In this chapter we get some good incite into the twins’ mind.  Chouko is a typical shallow female high school student and Hayate is her wiser over-protective brother. Peeking at the two chapters that are currently out, this is really a story about friendship, perhaps … Continue reading "Ore to Atashi no Kareshi-sama" Chapter 1

Mega Uploads Shut Down

K3

I imagine some of you are raging about the Mega Uploads Shutdown.  I imagine many scanlation groups lost all of their content links as a result of the Mega Uploads Shutdown.  I think, though, before you go off raging, you should understand the full extent of Mega Upload’s activities.  This is more about criminal conspiracy and racketeering than anything.  Please read the statement from the US Justice Department on the matter of Mega Upload’s shutdown. Link My opinion:  Mega Uploads was sketchy.  Once I got wise a few years back, I quit downloading anything from that website for fear of … Continue reading Mega Uploads Shut Down
