"Fushigi no Maria-kun" Chapter 7
This chapter begins a two chapter story arc and introduces a new character named Simon. I sorta wish Simon was introduced earlier, because he and Maria make a perfect comic duo. I don’t want to say much about this chapter other than along with chapter 8, I enjoyed it very much. I also received a lot of positive feedback on the chapter from the proofreaders. So let’s just get on with the release!Links to “Fushigi no Maria-kun” chapter 7: (Zip) (PDF) Please do not upload either of these files to any of the manga aggregators.

"Fushigi no Maria-kun" Chapter 6
Sorry for the long wait. I had a tough time with the translation because of all of the sexual subtext and mysterious casual male speech coming out of Teru’s mouth. A few pages have gone through 3 or 4 revisions. I’d like to thank Jade, Katsuragi Mizuho, and DangoChan for helping me with the thorny parts of the chapter. Hopefully, we got most of the translation correct. Unfortunately, chapter 7 isn’t going much better, but we’ll get through it. Dai-sensei got some CRAZY run on sentences and chopped of sentence fragments in the chapter that are slowing me down. On … Continue reading "Fushigi no Maria-kun" Chapter 6

"Pochamani" Chapter 4
RECRUITMENT: We need proofreaders/QCers. I you’re interested, go here. ——————————————-And suddenly this seemingly innocuous and sweet story goes someplace totally unexpected… *_* Whut? Is Tsumugi seriously saying that?! We knew what was on Tagami’s mind… but, dude, really? Anyhow, I tried to be as delicate as possible with the translation in hopes of not making it look as though things took a sudden 90-degree turn. Still, it’s refreshing to see a female character not shy away from carnal feelings. And thank goodness for Mami and Seiji. Two have been good check valves so far. Though, I still have suspicions about … Continue reading "Pochamani" Chapter 4

"Ore to Atashi no Kareshisama" Chapter 3
We are trying to get this series on a monthly schedule, but the redraws are crazy hard, so each chapter is taking a while to complete. Hopefully we’ll get some help soon so we can do multi-chapter releases after we finish “Fushigi no Maria-kun” and “Furou Kyoudai.” Anyhow, we’re doing our best with this series. If you have some Photoshop redrawing skills and a little bit of free time, please lend us a hand so we can stay on schedule (even one or two pages of help per chapter will make a difference). This chapter has all of the typical … Continue reading "Ore to Atashi no Kareshisama" Chapter 3
