"Magnolia": The Black Twins Special Chapter

K3

Here it is on the 30th, just as promise.  This is a cute short chapter with lots of laughs.  It takes place directly after Robert comes back from talking to Sui.  It’s still not clear to me whether Robert is actually “Roberta,”… I kinda hope so because it makes the Black Twins far more interesting. Anyhow, the twins seem very close like Sui and Ayato and I like that. Onto the release! Link to the Black Twins Special Chapter: (PDF) Next up…I don’t know. December is shaping up to be a big unknown. I’m currently working on “Butakai Ouji to … Continue reading "Magnolia": The Black Twins Special Chapter

"Magnolia" Chapter 26

K3

I need to take care of a couple of bits of business first. “Magnolia” Volume 5 is available for purchase. Lily is on the cover and the volume includes Chapters 22 – 16, “Lily” chapter 4 and the Black Twins special chapter. (Amazon JP) (YesAsia) We need proofreaders and QCers. Releases are now being delayed because of the lack of proofreaders/QCers.  If you have time, are fluent in English, knowledgeable about English grammar, and interested in volunteering, please send me an email (omarissister@gmail.com) To see highlights of the stuff in the manga magazines I enjoy, please see the Omari’s Sister … Continue reading "Magnolia" Chapter 26

First of all a bit of business.  The Omari’s Sister end-of-summer sale is going on now.  There are still lots of great items and books left to buy.  Please check it out here (Link). A big thanks to those of you who have already made purchases. With the money raised this round, Omari’s Sister is self sustaining for another 4 months!  Hooray!!!  Just as an interesting side note: this time around about 75% of the purchases were made by folks outside of the US.

Water-Themed One-Shot: "Seiten ni Tsurugi wo Kazase" ("Raise your Sword in Fair Weather") by Shizuru Onda

K3

Wow! We got this one in with barely any time to spare, though it’s not like any of our deadlines are hard. But still, big thanks to Kiruku Naru for her lightening fingers.  I didn’t get all the pages to her until yesterday, so I was not expecting to be able to release this today.  Hee! Also, thanks to Jade for a wonderful translation and thanks to Maki from Chinmokurev for helping us clean this one-shot! We end our August water-themed one-shots with a bang!  This is a really nice one-shot from one of Bisco Hatori’s former assistants.  If this … Continue reading Water-Themed One-Shot: "Seiten ni Tsurugi wo Kazase" ("Raise your Sword in Fair Weather") by Shizuru Onda

"Magnolia" Chapter 24

K3

Oh Nagi, what evil pills has Vincent given to you?! No don’t take them!!! Nagi!!! This is a very short chapter and most of it is flashback. It seems that Naked Ape is going to get the most out of Queen Angela’s letter.  But I understand…they’re busy.  They’ve got two series running in Zero-Sum magazine and private works they offer through their own website. Anyhow…enjoy the 30-seconds of pleasure!Link to “Magnolia” chapter 24: (PDF) Next up…I don’t know.  We are currently working on “Servamp” chapter 3, “The Day I Kissed a Whale”, “Summer Blue,” and the “Pochama ni” prequel one-shot.

Aria One-Shot: "Young Shinba and the Sleeping Giants" by Haru Maebashi

K3

This one-shot has been simmering on the back burner for over a year.  We’ve been working on it bit by bit for that long until it snuck up on me all lettered and nearly ready for release.  I was gonna release a few days ago, but I decided not to bury “Ojousama no Untenshu,” so I let it sit a little longer. Anyhow…this is shounenish one-shot from Aria magazine.  The premise is good, but as a one-shot there aren’t nearly enough pages to fully flesh-out the concept and the story. I would have liked to have seen this as 3 … Continue reading Aria One-Shot: "Young Shinba and the Sleeping Giants" by Haru Maebashi

"Lily" Chapter 4

K3

I have the sinking feeling that this chapter is going to piss a lot of people off. It’s well worn shoujo territory and there are lots of folk who read OS who are opposed to student/teacher relationships, including myself. Unfortunately, this is part of the “Magnolia” story, so I can’t just not translate it. That would be weird. I had to set a lot of my brain aside to accept this chapter. First I had to set aside my hatred for student/teacher relationship fantasies, then I had to set aside my hatred for age gap fantasies, and finally I had … Continue reading "Lily" Chapter 4

3rd Anniversary Wrap-up! Shiro Lala One-Shot: "Taiyou no Yuki" ("The Sun’s Snow") by Yukichi Nakamura

K3

This is the last of the Shiro Lala one-shots that we plan to release. It’s a play on a familiar American fairytale 🙂 (“thumpity, thump, thump, thump…”) with just a touch of another fairytale invoked by the protagonist’s nickname.  Haha! This one-shot took me by surprised considering that this is the same mangaka who gave us that messed up doll shop one-shot in Kuro Lala.  I now look forward to see what Nakamura-sensei come up with next :). Onto the release! Link to “Taiyou no Yuki”:  (PDF) With this, we wrap up our 3rd anniversary celebration! We managed to do … Continue reading 3rd Anniversary Wrap-up!
