"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”.

"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

New Short Series: "LLLL" by Tei Ataru

  Update 12/21/2013: Updates terms “shades” and “dark lamps” to be consistent the rest of the chapters.———————————- We’ve been stewing on this series for a while. The chapters are all translated and the pages are cleaned and redrawn (for the most part >_>).  It’s just been that extra push to finish the chapters that’s eluded us.  Hopefully now that we’ve launched the series, we’ll get the next 3 chapters done soon. As I said in the title this is a short series.  There are only 4 chapters that ran in Avarus magazine (Mag Garden), and they are compiled into one … Continue reading New Short Series: "LLLL" by Tei Ataru

"Magnolia" Chapter 36

Here’s “Magnolia” Chapter 36.  I thought this was going to be an arc about the King and Ayato, but I guess it isn’t.  Rather, it’s just follows Ayato and his buddies through the aftermath of the masquerade party. To my surprise, Hollier is a hardcore shipper.  I was laughing heartily at the panels where she appears.  Hollier is a good girl. I wish the best for her. Alexandra owns my heart. I really like him. Go with your heart, you beautiful man!  Ah Hugo… Hee! Finally, the drawing of him I’ve been waiting for and it’s cute! Hee! There’s hope … Continue reading "Magnolia" Chapter 36

"Magnolia" Chapter 35

This chapter confuses me quite a bit, but I wonder if I’m the only who found it a bit inconsistent with past chapters in the stories.  This is the biggest problem I’m having: And… Soooo… without spoiling what comes ahead.  I’ll just say, “WTF, Vincent?”  Anyhow, I’m very scared about the possibility this chapter opens, and hope it won’t go down the typical shoujo route because it would negate too much of the previous story, the fundamental mechanic of the “Magnolia”, and be untrue to the characters as laid out so far — mainly it makes the King looks very … Continue reading "Magnolia" Chapter 35

"Magnolia" Chapter 34

This chapter ends the Masquerade party arc and now we move on to examining the fallout of Ayato’s decision.  According to Naked Ape’s Twitter feed, the next arc will center around the King.  I guess we’re going to get to the question of succession and more about what Vincent is up to. Anyhow… Sui apparently likes to touch everyone. He’s creeptastic and confusing. Does he in anyway like Robert? Or is he only using Robert? Hugo… hmm… I don’t know what to make of him. He’s looks a little love sick at the end of this chapter. Welp, that’s enough … Continue reading "Magnolia" Chapter 34

"Magnolia" Chapter 33

With this chapter, we are caught up again to the Japanese release of this series.  Just to set your expectations correctly, this is a monthly series that runs in Aria magazine. Aria releases every month on the 28th. The story takes a big leap forward with this chapter.  Thank goodness, because I was getting tired of  beating around the bush.  Now that we’ve spent time exploring each possibility for Ayato and establishing that Ayato has no interest in girls, we can move onto the next arc.  What that will be about is tough to say because there are many possibilities.  … Continue reading "Magnolia" Chapter 33
