Long-Form Oneshot: "Tasogare Renren" ("Longing for Dusk") by Nari Kusakawa

K3

This oneshot originally appeared as the feature oneshot in Aka Lala last year.  We’ve been sitting on it for a while and finally got up the courage to take it on a couple of weeks ago.  It helped that the oneshot was released in the “Boku no Hitsugi de Bansan wo” (“Shall we have Dinner in my Coffin”) short story compilation.  Having the tankoubon version saved us a lot of time cleaning. On a side note, included in the short story compilation are “Boku no Hitsugi de Bansan wo” and “Shinobigoto“, both of which we have already translated. Please check … Continue reading Long-Form Oneshot: "Tasogare Renren" ("Longing for Dusk") by Nari Kusakawa

Short Oneshot: "Because I’ve Always Been Watching" by Hisaya Nakajo

K3

First a plug!  Purely fanservice oneshot “Neko Hiroimashita” (“I Picked up a Cat”) is out on Bakeneko’s Lair.  It’s safe for tweens and up, but just not appropriate for Omari’s Sister. Anyhow… bishies with cat ears in loin clothes doing cute stuff and absolutely no story… have at it!  (LINK) Hooray! Something new, albeit very short, from Hisaya Nakajo.  Her series “Hana Kimi” was the first manga series I ever purchased. This very short oneshot was a real pain in the behind. Some of the run-on sentence kept making us trip all over keyboards. Haha! Hopefully we’ve wrestling this spunky … Continue reading Short Oneshot: "Because I’ve Always Been Watching" by Hisaya Nakajo

Short Oneshot: "Haru no Ame" ("Spring Rain") by Maki Minami

K3

I had hoped to release a different oneshot tonight, but it simply wasn’t ready. Haha! Hopefully, we wrung all the errors out of this short oneshot ^^;;. Ugh… Anyhow, I guess you can still call it spring since the solstice isn’t until the 21st. In that case, this is an appropriate oneshot for the season, especially since many of you are graduating in some form or another. Happy Spring! And congratulations graduates! And now onto the release!Links to “Haru no Ame”: (Zip) (PDF) Next up will hopefully be the short oneshot I wanted to release tonight.

”Piano Lessons for An Adult" by Mimo Akio

K3

This is the second work from a new mangaka named Mimi Akio. (We will present her debut work later.) She is published in Princess and Petite Princess magazines. I’m quite impressed with Ms. Akio’s simple drawing style and her clever storytelling.  This one is dear to my heart because it involves a physics professor in a stylish suit. I love the suit. You hear me, I LOVE GUYS IN SUITS!!! He drinks coffee from chemistry lab ware. There’s so much for me to love! Now… I know what some of you are thinking. Yeah, yeah, I don’t like student/teacher thing…but… … Continue reading ”Piano Lessons for An Adult" by Mimo Akio
