"Yukarism" Chapter 11

Here is the final chapter of “Yukarism” before it went on hiatus.  I don’t know when “Yukarism” will return, but I hope it’s not too long and I hope the series isn’t abandoned.  It’s too good of a series to kill before it’s done.  It does worry me, though, like the other series that went on hiatus, when it does return the story will be rushed to an end.*Wringing hands* Anyhow, we learn more about Kazuma’s woes and we begin to understand why he’s doomed and why he’s so freaking insane.  I feel so bad that his happy little family … Continue reading "Yukarism" Chapter 11

"Yukarism" Chp 10

It’s been a while since we had a chapter of “Yukarism”.  The series is currently on hiatus, so I decided there was no urgent need for releases.  It looks like Shiomi-sensei has recovered enough to start drawing again (a new chapter of “Nanatsu Kururi” came out in the latest issue of Itan) and she spoke on Twitter about finishing the manuscript for the end of an unnamed series…hmm…But keep in mind that Shiomi-sensei currently has three series running. I did see the listing for Betsuhana 6 and “Yukarism” doesn’t appear.  I guess we have to wait at least two months … Continue reading "Yukarism" Chp 10

New Series: "Ojousama no Untenshu" ("The Young Lady’s Chauffeur") Chapter 1

At long last, we get started on this series.  Again, this is another casualty of “Kuro Lala” and “Shiro Lala”.  Hopefully, though, now that we are started, we can put out a chapter every month or two.  This is another series with CRAZY redraws, so I can’t guarantee monthly releases, but we’ll do our best.  We are doing this series in conjunction with Heart Crusade.  Heart Crusade will be helping out with some of horrendous redraws.And now onto the series:  This first chapter was very compelling to me and I want to see more of this couple as soon as … Continue reading New Series: "Ojousama no Untenshu" ("The Young Lady’s Chauffeur") Chapter 1

Yukarism Chapter 9

“Yukarism” resumes with a beautiful color page.  The title says the chapter is 45 pages, but it’s only 37 pages.  I guess the chapter is shorter than what was expected or negotiated.  It’s kinda surprising considering that the series was on hiatus for three months.  Oh, well… This chapter has a sad flashback to Yuumurasaki’s and Kazuma’s childhood and ends with a launch pad into what takes place in the past in Edo between Yuumurasaki, Kazuma, and Takamura.  There’s an interesting little historical nugget added to the story (be sure to read the translator notes).  I wonder if this was … Continue reading Yukarism Chapter 9

"Yukarism" Chapter 8

First of all, I would like to acknowledge the effort the team of Omari’s Sister translators put into page 6.  There was a lot of :/, but after a couple of days of e-mail exchanges, I think we got a decent translation.———————-It’s been a while since we’ve had a chapter of “Yukarism”.  Hopefully, this chapter is worth the wait and hopefully the way the chapter ends will help you understand why I held onto it until now.  In this chapter we, along with Yukari, learn a lot about Mahoro.  We also start getting glimpses of what happened between Yuumurasaki, Takamura, … Continue reading "Yukarism" Chapter 8

"Ouran High School Host Club" August 2011 Special Chapter

This special chapter isn’t what I expected from the preview teaser, but it does fit in perfectly with our “Spooky One-shots” Fall theme.  This little ghost story is a nice transition from summer to fall, so all is forgiven, though, I really wanted TamaxHaru happy married love-love short.  Can you imagine how “stoopid” a pregnant Haruhi chapter could be?  You’d have craziness from Tamaki, Renka, and nutty Tamaki’s Dad to deal with on that.  Anyhow…on to the links:Links to the “Ouran High School Host Club” August Special Chapter:  (Zip) (PDF) Retired. Next up!  Next up are the two latest “Hana … Continue reading "Ouran High School Host Club" August 2011 Special Chapter

Retiring "Junketsu + Kareshi"

Update:  “Barajou no Kisu” has just been added to JManga’s directory. Link Aya Shouto has written on her blog that she thinks her works could get licensed and published in English if all overseas scanlation stops.  It is never my intention to harm the original author, so per Aya Shouto’s wishes, I will remove “Junketsu + Kareshi” from this blog.
