"The Ghost Apartment Manager" Staff Affected by the Earthquake

K3

In a note in Princess 5 Fujieda-sensei explains that she and her assistants were affected by the earthquake on March 11th and so, therefore, “The Ghost Apartment Manager” chapter 8 will be delayed until Princess 6 releases in early May. The first panel is them on 3/11.  The earthquake happened while they were working.  They hid under there desks while the bookcases were falling.  Panel two is them the next night, which they apparently they spent at a school.  It’s warmer than they thought, but they think it will be cold in the morning.  Notice the little cat in the … Continue reading "The Ghost Apartment Manager" Staff Affected by the Earthquake

Magnolia Chapter 9

K3

It’s been a busy past few days.  First a planned real-life thing happened and then an unplanned family emergency happened.  Fortunately, all is well and life is back to normal.  Anyhow, here is “Magnolia” chapter 9.  There’s a nice little flashback in the beginning that confirms many of our suspicions and then we get on to fun with Hollier.  Hopefully those people who were initially put off by Hollier will warm up to her by the end of this chapter.  She’s good girl with good intentions.  And now the links:Links to “Magnolia” Chapter 9: (Zip) (PDF — tablets and mobile) … Continue reading Magnolia Chapter 9

"The Ghost Apartment Manager" Chapter 2

K3

  Here is “The Ghost Apartment Manager” chapter 2.  This is another introductory chapter.  In chapter 3, things really get started with the introduction of a lot of characters and the general story mechanic.  I think many of you will be surprised by the route the story will take because it seems so low key now.  For now though, Sekka and his interactions with the two ghosts are lots of fun.

My Thoughts on the Chapter: I really felt for Leo in this chapter.  It’s hard … Continue reading "The Ghost Apartment Manager" Chapter 2

"Yukarism" Chapter 3

K3

  This series gets better with each chapter.  It’s funny, sweet, and fun all at the same time!  And on top of that, the artwork is wonderful! I hope Shiomi-sensei can keep up the momentum with this series. Links to “Yukarism” chapter 3: LICENSED Spoiler Alert! Spoilers Ahead! My Thoughts on the Chapter: Hitoha!  She’s so cute.  I hope this isn’t the last we see of her present self, Emi. Mahoro is a constant source of laughter for me in this chapter.  She so oblivious to her own hypocrisy.  She’s hysterically jealous and just plain funny.  I wonder if what … Continue reading "Yukarism" Chapter 3

"Pika Ichi" Chapter 7

K3

Here is “Pika Ichi” chapter 7.  Things are settling into the mode of examining Dougen’s personality and life situation and starts the anticipated Dougen x Hanako relationship.  This chapter is a little bit shorter than usual (chapter 8 is also a little shorter) which was nice for us in terms of work load.Links to “Pika Ichi” chapter 7:  (Zip) (PDF) Spoiler Alert! Spoilers Ahead! My Thoughts on the Chapter: Hanako is too saintly.  It seems to be a key feature of her personality though.  I’m actually kinda disappointed in this development.  It really disturbs me that Hanako so easily ran … Continue reading "Pika Ichi" Chapter 7

"Pika Ichi" Chapter 6

K3

“Pika Ichi” returns!  I’m glad I took a break from the series.  It allowed me to gain some perspective on the series and to see the next three chapters before deciding to continue the series.  Make no mistake, this series continues to defy logic.  Apparently adults do not exist in this story’s world so it’s basically like “Lord of the Flies”.  By the way, I hated the book “Lord of the Flies”.  For the most part senselessly violent children don’t settle well with me.  Still, I like Tarou, Hanako, and Manaka and I’m curious about Dougen and Misono so I … Continue reading "Pika Ichi" Chapter 6

The long wait is over!  This was a tougher chapter than usual in terms of translation, cleaning, and redrawing than usual.  I think most of our active cleaners helped out on this chapter.  I think we are all glad to have this chapter over with!  Phew! Well, the chapter didn’t go as I expected, but my random wish for pirates in the story did come true!  Hooray for pirates!Updated 03/11/2011 (incorporated multiple minor edits from Holanio) Updated 03/10/2011 (error on page 25 fixed)Links to “Akagami no Shirayukihime” chapter 23: (Zip) (PDF) Spoiler Alert!
