Valentine’s Oneshot #3: "Risou no Kareshitachi" ("Perfect Boyfriends") by Honomi Honda

This oneshot… Haha! It’s been fun watching the proofreaders’ reaction to it. I guess I shouldn’t say anything to bias readers.  I’ll just say that the honorifics were intentionally left in the translation. Links to “Risou no Kareshitaschi”: (PDF) (Zip) Next up will be our final planned oneshot. However, two more will be released along with a few chapters of our regular monthly series in the next two weeks.

Happy Valentine’s Day! Whether you have a Valentine or not, have a great day and treat yourself to something nice. Also remember, at the stroke of midnight, Godiva’s Valentine’s chocolates are deeply discounted.

Valentine’s Day Oneshot #1: "Ringo no Asobikata" ("Playing with Apples") by Kumiko Kandachi

Thank you all for your patience.  We will now get our Valentine’s long-weekend one-shot party under way! We have four one-shots for this party ranging from a sweet fairytale to a dark cautionary tale. We’ll start the festivities with a slightly psychological story. This one was a lot of fun to translate.Links to “Ringo no Asobikata”: (PDF) (Zip) Tomorrow we will have a oneshot featuring my favorite shoujo trope!

Zombie Apocalypse Shoujo Oneshot: "Kuma-san to Issho" ("Together with Mr. Bear") by Yutaka Tachibana

I wanted this to be our final release of 2013, but I underestimated how challenging the redraws and the lettering for this oneshot would be. (Give a big thanks to Ichigo Stars for her amazing redrawing! This release looks fabulous!) … Continue reading Zombie Apocalypse Shoujo Oneshot: "Kuma-san to Issho" ("Together with Mr. Bear") by Yutaka Tachibana

Oneshot: "Junketsu Diablos" ("Pure Dialblos") by Chie Shimada

K3

This is a oneshot we’ve been slowly completing for at least 2 years. It feels like the pilot for a longer series that never happened.  Not sure how that would work, seeing as how one of the suitors in the love triangle is a Catholic Priest.  But… it’s not like Catholicism is understood in Japan.  Anyhow… what happened to the cats is kinda disturbing, and beyond that, this oneshot is honestly kinda mediocre. I think a clearer distinction should have be drawn between the priest and the demon. I think the oneshot’s shortcomings are probably due to a cultural mismatch … Continue reading Oneshot: "Junketsu Diablos" ("Pure Dialblos") by Chie Shimada

Short Oneshot: "Sayonara Kodomotachi" ("Farewell Children") by Satoshi Morie

K3

Continuing on with our releases, here’s a new oneshot from Satoshi Morie. I don’t want to say much about it, other than I found it shocking and incredibly sweet at the same time.  I like Satoshi Morie’s oneshots a lot, so look out for more of them in the future.  Hopefully we will release her latest oneshot toward the end of the month. And now onto the release!Links to “Sayonara Kodomotachi”: (PDF) (Zip) Next up will be another short oneshot!
