"Kanojo ni Naru Hi — Another" Chapter 3

This would have been great for Valentine’s Day, but since I didn’t get Lala DX until the 11th, there was no way we could have completed this chapter in time. In this chapter we also meet Sagara’s family. It’s a very cute chapter :3. And now onto the release!“Kanojo ni Naru Hi — Another” Chapter 3: (PDF) (Zip) Next up will be the final chapter of “Lip Smoke” and a double release of “Baraou no Souretsu”.

New Series: "Sabaku no Harem" ("Harem in the Desert") by Mitsuru Yumeki

This is a new series that debuted in the latest issue of Lala DX magazine.  Like “Kanojo ni Naru Hi — Another” this series will be released bi-monthly, so expect the next chapter in late April/early May. This is literally a harem manga.  Nothing about the story is unique, but I felt it was well executed. I like the intelligent, but bratty Prince character Kallum, and Mishe, the main female character is delightfully spunky. I’m eager to see how the two character grow. Please give us some feedback on this new series. And now on to the release!Links to “Sabaku … Continue reading New Series: "Sabaku no Harem" ("Harem in the Desert") by Mitsuru Yumeki

"Baraou no Souretsu" Chapter 3

Finally, wrapping up this month’s releases, we have the third chapter of “Baraou no Souretsu”. This series gets better and better to me. I love it! I’ve been reading up on the history of Richard III and the War of the Roses, so I’m excited to see how Kanno-sensei will reinterpret was little is know about that time.  What I do know is that it was a brutal time. Lots of people, nobles and peasants, were killed, and there was treachery within the royal family and nobility. The story is still at a place before Shakespeare’s play about Richard III … Continue reading "Baraou no Souretsu" Chapter 3

"Pochamani" Chapter 11

As stated before, this is the last chapter of “Pochamani” that Crimson Flower will translate.  After reading this chapter, I think it will be clear to most people why this a good and natural place to end the story. I really don’t understand why the series was expanded from here other than for money. It would have been a really sweet short series. Anyhow, for my own sake I want to end here because I don’t want my beautiful memories of this series stained by the ridiculous shark jumping that happens after this. We have no intention of passing the … Continue reading "Pochamani" Chapter 11

New Short Series: "Megane no Incubus-kun" (The Incubus and the Magical Glasses") Chapter 1

This is the last of the typical shoujo high school love-train series we’re going to do. I guess you could say since a supernatural being is involved, it’s already not that typical, but still, somehow this feels especially “big-eyed” to me. I chose this short-series because I like the guy — calm, smart, introverted, megane … >_> . I don’t care much the female MC. She the typical bubbly brainless girl who’s going to confess to the popular sempai she’s been crushing on. She remind me of Shouko from “Ore to Atashi”.  Ugh… go away. Get off my megane, you … Continue reading New Short Series: "Megane no Incubus-kun" (The Incubus and the Magical Glasses") Chapter 1

"Kanojo ni Naru Hi — Another’ Chapter 2

It’s been a while since our last release. Most of the releases that we are working on are over 40-pages and therefore require more time than usual to complete. Anyhow, we’re chugging along now, so hopefully we’ll get back to our average 2 releases/week schedule. Here is the second chapter of “Kanojo ni Naru Hi — Another”. I like how this story begins by focusing on friendship and self-acceptance (regardless of gender) first.  I guess I say this because it’s clear Sagara got in lots of fights before emergence because he didn’t like being small and feminine looking even as … Continue reading "Kanojo ni Naru Hi — Another’ Chapter 2
