The Scarecrow of Oz is being Serialized

K3

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

"Yukarism" Preview

K3

Here is a preview of the one of our new series for 2011 called “Yukarism”.  It’s by Chika Shiomi the author of “Yurara” and “Rasetsu”.  This is only a preview so it hasn’t been QC’ed or proofread yet. Please forgive any typos or errors I haven’t caught yet.  Hopefully, this little preview will give you some idea about the quality of the artwork (actually, I’ve saved the best parts because there are some stunningly gorgeous pages that I want to leave as a surprise) and a feel for the main characters.  I’m already very fond of the maid.

Orange Chocolate Chapter 21: Sports Festival Arc Pt. 1

K3

I am only the messenger, so please don’t jump on me about this arc of the story because I already feel bad enough.  Yes, it’s a dreaded three chapter story arc about a sports festival and it comes complete with a cavalry battle. Nevermind the the hints that Ritsu could hit “the wall” due to exhaustion.  Nevermind that Ritsu can’t repeat Chiro’s dance performance.  Nevermind Chiro’s sudden fame…no, it’s time for a sports festival!  Let’s just get this over with: Links to Orange Chocolate chapter 21: (Zip) (PDF) Next up is the final chapter of “Kimi ni XOXO”!

"Lily" Chapter 1

K3

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

Magnolia Chapter 6

K3

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
