One-Shot: "Assassin Red Riding Hood"

K3

Here’s a wee-bit of stoopid to make up for all the dreary from the last two one-shots.  This is more like a one-shot for Bakeneko’s Lair, but since I reintegrated that, this one-shot appears here.  I like stories that are parodies of Fairy Tales.  This is a short one-shot that appeared in Zero-Sum Ward magazine, so it’s on the shounen side of the manga spectrum. Oh, and it’s only 10-pages! So it’s a quick read :). Onto the link!

"Fushigi no Maria-kun" Chapter 5

K3

We are now on the second volume of “Fushigi no Maria-kun”!  There are nine chapters total in this series. Hopefully we’ll be able to finish it before the end of the year.  Haha! This is truly a challenging series. The redraws, translation, and typesetting are all horrendous.  But I think it’s worth it. This story is very heartwarming and Shiina Dai’s dialog is always a treat to translate. I wish it could have released this chapter in April since it’s a story about cherry blossom viewing.  My favorite part of this chapter is the conversation between Maria and Toko’s father.  … Continue reading "Fushigi no Maria-kun" Chapter 5

"Fushigi no Maria-kun" Bonus Story: "The Wounds that Cover Us" (Manshinsoui no Futari")

K3

This is the extra short one-shot included in “Fushigi no Maria-kun” Volume 1.  It’s a cute little high school romance story.  I always like it when authors are able to tell a complete story in very few pages. Oh!  This is also the debut project for our newest typesetter, Rien!  Let’s all welcome Rien 🙂Links to “The Wounds that Cover Us”: (Zip) (PDF) The next chapter of “Fushigi no Maria-kun” will come out in March (hopefully).

"Ore to Atashi no Kareshi-sama" Chapter 1

K3

We finally get this series started.  Phew! There were a lot of complicated redraws.  Thanks to Ichi and Kumiko for the great redraw work and thanks to Suzume for cleaning. This series turns out to be a lot sweeter than I anticipated.  I’m happy about that because I always like stories with some underlying heart.  In this chapter we get some good incite into the twins’ mind.  Chouko is a typical shallow female high school student and Hayate is her wiser over-protective brother. Peeking at the two chapters that are currently out, this is really a story about friendship, perhaps … Continue reading "Ore to Atashi no Kareshi-sama" Chapter 1

"Fushigi no Maria-kun" Chapter 4

K3

First of all, and this has nothing to do with “Fushigi no Maria-kun”, there’s a great Taiwanese live action version of “Skip Beat” in the middle of its run.  It’s up to episode 4.  If you aren’t watching it, go watch it!  It can be found in “the usual places” (don’t ask, because I’m not telling). And now onto “Fushigi no Maria-kun”! It’s been a while since we’ve had a chapter!  As I’ve written before, this series is a challenge in every way.  I’ll like to thank Noir and Ichi for doing a wonderful cleaning and redrawing this chapter.  They … Continue reading "Fushigi no Maria-kun" Chapter 4

Ore to Atashi no Kareshi-sama Chp 0

K3

This is surprise confection that showed up in Asuka magazine.  I waited until the first chapter actually came out before committing to give this series and try.  The first chapter is pretty hilarious, so I’m looking forward to starting this series.  This will probably be a series that we will release every other month because it’s got crazy redraws that rival “Fushigi no Maria-kun”.  We will release the first chapter in December. About the title —I’m still working of a proper translation.  Since there are no female/male distinctions in English for the words “I” and “me” there is no direct … Continue reading Ore to Atashi no Kareshi-sama Chp 0

Fushigi no Maria-kun Chp 3

K3

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

Fushigi no Maria-kun Chapter 2

K3

Once again, “Fushigi no Maria-kun” proves to be our most difficult series to typeset.  Hopefully we caught all of the errors.  Anyhow…Maria and Toko continue on with their evolving relationship.  I really like how this chapter shows us the weirdness that happens when a childhood friendship starts to blossom into something more.  I like how the vampirism isn’t the focus of the story, but rather the backdrop.  I also like how the story is staying focused on Toko and Maria.  I must admit that I love this kind of innocent sweetness. Onto the links!  Links to “Fushigi no Maria-kun” Chapter … Continue reading Fushigi no Maria-kun Chapter 2
