"LLLL" Chapter 3
With help from Aricania and Ichigo Stars, we are jamming through the rest of “LLLL”. The final chapter will be out soon after Christmas Day. This chapter centers around Oregano’s relationship with her brother Ginger. I kinda want to see this played out some more, but this was good. And now onto the release! Links to “LLLL” chapter 3: (PDF) (Zip) Next up will be the final chapters of “LLLL” and “Wild Wing”. After those two, we will resume our regular monthly series, beginning with the last two chapters of “Magnolia”. Continue reading "LLLL" Chapter 3
"Wild Wing" Chapter 2
It’s been well over a year since we released the “Wild Wing” oneshot. This is one of those oneshots that unexpectedly became a series. Rest assured, we’ll have the third and final chapter out very soon (hopefully within the next two weeks). Anyhow, the continuation of this series is pretty good. I think this chapter is better than the first chapter. There a bit of cliffhanger at the end, so I’m eager to get to the final chapter too. A big thanks goes out to Silver Lunar for cleaning and redrawing this beast (with a little help from Ichigo Stars). … Continue reading "Wild Wing" Chapter 2
"LLLL" Chapter 2
While we have typesetters available, I decided to change the schedule and release the rest of “LLLL” and “Wild Wing” since they are already translated and cleaned. In the background we are working on our regular monthly releases, so January should have a bunch of releases. Next week we may not have any releases because of the Christmas holiday, but we will make an effort to finish these two series by the end of the month. We continue on with “LLLL”. This story is so nice and pleasant, but at the same time quite moving in places. I also feel … Continue reading "LLLL" Chapter 2

Where to read manga online LEGALLY
I’ve been stewing on this post for a while, but RL and excitement at MU got in the way. Finally I have time!

Repost: Manga Rambling
First of all, I hope everyone in the US had a tasty and safe Thanksgiving. Thanksgiving was small here with just me, my husband, and Omari. We fried turkey legs and had all the usual sides — mashed potatoes, yams, southen style collards, stuffing, cranberry sauce, and pumpkin pie. Everything was insanely tasty. (I will admit to being proud of my home cooking. My grandmother taught me well.) Hopefully our leftovers will last us through the weekend. Onto to the manga rambling! I’ve been having some evolving thoughts as I’ve been exposed to more kinds of manga and reading bits … Continue reading Repost: Manga Rambling
Manga Updates Link Removal Update
If you’re following the matter, MU posted an update on the group link removal issue: LINK. I guess it is a legit complaint. I don’t know enough about copyright law to say whether what happened was valid or not, but it’s clear to me the link removal request only benefited the manga aggregators. It’s is clear that the publishing organization that made the DMCA complaint does not understand the manga scanlation world, and as a consequence drove eyeballs to to the entities that they are trying to curb. Not that any of this is going to help. Honestly, publishers need … Continue reading Manga Updates Link Removal Update
"Lip Smoke" Chapter 3
It’s slow going now that we are into the holiday season. Hopefully we can get some extra help during the second half of the month for January and February releases. For now, though, we’ll go along at a leisurely pace. I’ve got some real life to deal with and hubby and I keep fighting seasonal colds and stomach flus T_T. This is the Seta Porn chapter. That is all. Onto the release!Links to “Lip Smoke” Chapter 3: (PDF) (Zip) Next up will be the last two chapters of “Magnolia” and possibly a oneshot on Bakeneko’s Lair.
