June at Omari’s Sister

"Seirei Produce" Update

I can’t sleep ’cause my stomach’s rumbly, so I did a quick read of the first chapter of “Seirei Produce.”  Basically, 16-year old Momose Shina meets a couple of strange guys in a park.  One of them is dressed in a kimono and asks if she believes in God.  Shina thinks he’s a proselytizing weirdo and tries to get away from the guy in the kimono.  A little later, Shina gets very tired to the point of barely being able to move and she looks so sick that strangers are taking pity on her.  She goes to rest on a … Continue reading "Seirei Produce" Update

Retiring Arakure (Wild Ones)

Arakure (“Wild Ones”) volume 10 releases June 1st, and, with that, the complete series will be out to purchase in English from Viz.  At that time I will be pulling the series from my blog and server.  If you like the series, I encourage you to support the author and the distributor by purchasing the books.  Also, this will make room for me to add new unlicensed series and one-shots for you all to read.  I will be doing the same with Ouran 1-month after I release the translation of the final chapter.  Of course, I have no control over … Continue reading Retiring Arakure (Wild Ones)
