We are Officially Dropping "Pika Ichi"

Fushigi no Maria-kun Chp 3

Tonight was anime night and I was wasn’t sure whether I was going to be able to post this tonight at all, so I did a quick post earlier.  Now I have time to write a full post. This is the third chapter for “Fushigi no Maria-kun” and this time we get to see matters from Maria’s perspective.  My gosh is Maria sweet and huggable!  I liked translating this chapter a lot.  Maria’s inner monologues are beautifully written in Japanese.  I hope I was able to translate some of that beauty into English.  Shiina Dai never ceases to amaze me … Continue reading Fushigi no Maria-kun Chp 3

Kuro Lala One-shot: "The Doll Rebirth Workshop"

Here is our third spooky one-shot from Kuro Lala.  I’d categorize this one-shot as campy horror.  It’s surprising gory for something carrying the Lala brand. And now I leave you with the thought, “It never ends well when a deranged teenage girl gets hold of an exacto knife.”  I lied.  Actually, I do have a question for you readers.  What’s the moral of this story?  For the life of me I can’t figure out what I was supposed to learn from this bizarre little tale of bitchcraft.  The ending is very “WTF?”Links to “The Doll Rebirth Workshop”:  (Zip) (PDF) Next … Continue reading Kuro Lala One-shot: "The Doll Rebirth Workshop"

"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

"Akagami no Shirayukihime" Chapter 26

At last we come to the end of the Tanburn arc.  I’m kinda surprised this chapter didn’t begin with some color pages.  Oh well, this is still nice.Anyhow…a lot of loose ends are tied up in this chapter.  We finally learn who Shirayuki really is and why Kadzuki kidnapped her.  I kinda wish that there was more to the pirate and the Mountain Lion grudge and more to the pirate’s boss than she’s an angry and violent woman.  I wanted there to be some history other than tit for tat.  But…alas, this is not a story about pirates and vigilantes … Continue reading "Akagami no Shirayukihime" Chapter 26
