I can’t believe we finished this before the end of Halloween night!  It was such a joy translating and editing the images in the chapter :).  I love handling beautiful drawings!  I couldn’t redraw the intro color 2-page spread, but I did redraw/extrapolate the gap between the pages of a very important scene.  All hail the mighty PhotoShop Pen Tool! Anyhow Happy Halloween!

Wow! There are two beautiful introductory pages in this chapter and this series will appear on the cover of Aria 12!  I can’t wait to see what Shouto-sensei comes up with!  This is a fun series so far :).  There is something I’d like to comment on about this chapter, but I’ll wait a couple of days for people to read it so I don’t spoil the chapter for everyone.

“Junketsu + Kareshi” (“Pureblood + Boyfriend”)  is another new series from “Aria” magazine.  I will definitely be translating the second chapter because I want to know what happens next and the chapter left me with lots of questions.  As with “Pika Ichi,” I will decide whether to continue this series based on the second chapter.  As always, your feedback is appreciated and wanted.
