Poor, poor Nagi…is it real or a spell? Chapter 7 is short, but it’s a real treat for Nagi x Ayato fans. Personally, I just like Nagi. This is my favorite cover image so far. Ayato looks like he/she is being nuzzled by her big brother, but big brother is looking quite possessive and un-big brother-like. Try getting through that Yugo! Links to “Magnolia” Chapter 7: (Zip) (PDF) Warning: Spoilers Ahead My thoughts on the chapter — The obvious question I already asked: is Nagi is under a spell or are these Nagi’s true feelings? Personally, I think poor Nagi’s … Continue reading Magnolia Chapter 7
AUGH!!! A pleasant hole has been blown into my plans :). “The Scarecrow of Oz” has been picked up as a series in “Hana to Yume” magazine. It will begin serialization in Hana to Yume issue 5, which releases in two weeks! I LOVE the two one-shots, so we will be picking up this series. Unfortunately, for you “Pika Ichi” fans, this is the last nail in the coffin for that series. I’m currently actively looking for a good translator/typesetter to take it over. Until I do find someone, we will put out chapters when we have time. Let’s keep … Continue reading The Scarecrow of Oz is being Serialized
Well, here’s the WTH non-ending end of “Kimi ni XOXO”. It’s still a fun chapter, but it’s sad to see yet another good series go unfinished. If there is additional “Kimi ni XOXO” material released, I will translate it. Links … Continue reading "Kimi ni XOXO" Chapter 5
First of all! Get the Lily themed desktop wallpaper set! (Link — the second button is the download button) And now, here’s the first chapter of “Lily” the companion series to “Magnolia”. This is a wonderful addition to “Magnolia” and I’m glad naked ape recognized how wonderful Lily’s character is. Links to Lily Chapter 1: (Zip) (PDF) If you can, I encourage you purchase this volume of Itan to support “Lily” and naked ape. Who knows, you might find something else inside the magazine that interests you (I have, but I don’t have enough bandwidth to add anymore series). Links … Continue reading "Lily" Chapter 1
It’s another cruel chapter of “Magnolia”…this one is only 28 pages and as one of my proofreaders pointed out, the second page is a repeat. Boo! But it’s a really good chapter and sets up for what I hope to be a thrilling volume 2. Links to Magnolia Chapter 6: (Zip)(PDF) Spoilers Ahead — My thoughts on the chapter:Poor, poor, Nagi. Nothing good can come of this for him. Ayato is nutz, Yugo is relentless, and poor Nagi has his own heart to worry about. But I think that’s what makes this situation delicious. What is poor Nagi going to … Continue reading Magnolia Chapter 6
“Kimi ni XOXO” is back for the final two chapters. I’m sorry it’s been a while since a release, but this chapter was really hard to clean (poor quality raw) and had a lot of redrawing to do. Because of the difficulty I want to acknowledge the contributions of Chiresakura who helped clean and Ichigo Stars who did all of the difficult redraws. Without them, this chapter wouldn’t have come out nearly as well as it did. Links to “Kimi ni XOXO” chapter 4: (Zip) (PDF) I wanted to release chapter 5 right after chapter 4, but again because of … Continue reading "Kimi ni XOXO" Chapter 4
Update!: Lily Themed desktop wallpaper set! (Link — the second button is the download button) ——————— Our prayers have been answered! It’s a Lily themed Magnolia companion series of extra stories! Yes! It’s “Magnolia” from Lily’s perspective! I will release this opening chapter with Magnolia Chp 6! Unfortunately, Itan is only published every three months and the next one-shot will be in Itan 5, which means the next chapter of “Lily” won’t be out until the end of June. Continue reading "Lily" in Itan Magazine!
