"Akagami no Shirayukihime" Chapter 29

Before we get to the nitty-gritty of releasing this chapter, there are a few things that I feel I need to say. We are not dropping “Akagami no Shirayukihime”.  The past 3 chapters have been quite good and I personally want to go forward. If a group capable of maintaining the image quality and translation quality and the time dedication approaches us about taking over the series, we will gladly transfer the series so we can work on other things. I will make a greater effort to refrain from knee-jerk reactions in the future. The image quality for chapter 29 … Continue reading "Akagami no Shirayukihime" Chapter 29

Akagami Update — Situation Resolved

Update:I have been contacted by the scanlator who did the Mangafox version and we are talking about having her help with AnS as a member of OS.  Hopefully, this will all work out. Anyhow…so here’s the plan moving forward.  We will make AnS an active project again.  We will release our own version of chapter 29.  I’m debating whether to do chapter 29 this month or skip it and move onto chapter 30 and swing back around to chapter 29 when the tankoubon comes out.  Anyhow, thank you are for your support.  Hopefully, we’ll be able to work things out such … Continue reading Akagami Update — Situation Resolved

"Akagami no Shirayukihime" Chapter 28

I only got one proofread on this, but I wanted to put it out now before New’s Year activities sweep me away.  Hopefully, we caught all of the egregious typos.  I’ll update the file at a later time if more typos are discovered. I’d like to thank Amrai for taking on the difficult task of translating this chapter.  The Akidzuki Word Salad was horrifically bitter and full of tear inducing onions this time.  I’d also like to thank Kotomi for helping me beat the script into shape.  This chapter was a challenge all around. This is the last re-introduction chapter … Continue reading "Akagami no Shirayukihime" Chapter 28

Torn About AnS from the Magazine

Update: Thanks to everyone who thoughtfully responded right away.  Your love of AnS is clear and I hear it.  I think the majority of you understand the difficulty of working with a bad raw and that we as a group don’t want to do mediocre releases if there’s an alternative.  So…here’s what we’re going to do: Chapter 28 will be released as scheduled in December In place of releasing a mediocre Chapter 29 in January, we will release the extras from Volume 6. Chapter 29 will be done from the tankoubon as soon as we get it.  My hope is … Continue reading Torn About AnS from the Magazine

Ore to Atashi no Kareshi-sama Chp 0

This is surprise confection that showed up in Asuka magazine.  I waited until the first chapter actually came out before committing to give this series and try.  The first chapter is pretty hilarious, so I’m looking forward to starting this series.  This will probably be a series that we will release every other month because it’s got crazy redraws that rival “Fushigi no Maria-kun”.  We will release the first chapter in December. About the title —I’m still working of a proper translation.  Since there are no female/male distinctions in English for the words “I” and “me” there is no direct … Continue reading Ore to Atashi no Kareshi-sama Chp 0

We are Officially Dropping "Pika Ichi"

We are officially dropping “Pika Ichi”.  Hopefully another group will pick it up quickly.  As of now I’m not interested in the rest of the story and there are other series that the group and I would like to work on.  I’m sorry to all the fans out there, but I promise we will bring you a new and fabulous series from Asuka that will make you forgive us 1000 times over. Continue reading We are Officially Dropping "Pika Ichi"
