Magnolia Chapter 6

K3

It’s another cruel chapter of “Magnolia”…this one is only 28 pages and as one of my proofreaders pointed out, the second page is a repeat. Boo! But it’s a really good chapter and sets up for what I hope to be a thrilling volume 2. Links to Magnolia Chapter 6:  (Zip)(PDF) Spoilers Ahead — My thoughts on the chapter:Poor, poor, Nagi.  Nothing good can come of this for him.  Ayato is nutz, Yugo is relentless, and poor Nagi has his own heart to worry about.  But I think that’s what makes this situation delicious.  What is poor Nagi going to … Continue reading Magnolia Chapter 6

Magnolia Chapter 5

K3

One agonizing wait is over only to begin another.  The mental well being of a Magnolia fan is never good.  Hahaha!  We finally get the answer to how Ayato’s Dad reacts to Ayato dressed as a woman.  The reaction, in general, is as I expected, but I didn’t anticipate the extent of the reaction.  Needless to say, I was quite pleased by the whole scene.  Thank you Naked Ape for exceeding my expectations! Links to Magnolia Chp 5:  (Zip) (PDF) I made a small update to “Magnolia” chapter 2 that has some impact to the story.  I think there was … Continue reading Magnolia Chapter 5

Ouran Special Short Story and Commemoration

K3

The Ouran Commemoration in Lala Special issue 12/2010 contains a lot of stuff.  I stuck to the stuff that was most interesting to me and took into consideration what might appear in Volume 18 when it’s finally released in English.  Five chapters were selected as key chapters to re-read.  They are chapters 4, 20, 36, 52, and 80.  These key chapters were reprinted and took up the bulk of the commemoration.  Interspersed between the chapter re-prints were interviews and Ouran trivia.  I imagine most of this stuff will appear when Volume 18 is finally released in English from Viz, plus, … Continue reading Ouran Special Short Story and Commemoration

Magnolia Chapter 4

I weep no more for the ending of “Zettai Heiwa Daisakusen” because another has come to walk in Johanne’s shoes.  Bless you Naked Ape for giving us Yugo!

Chapter 5 can’t come soon enough!  AUGH!!!  I’m suffering!!!!  I hope we find out who Lily’s guy is soon.  Is he royalty, military, a gigolo or some random party crasher? Next up is a double release of “Orange Chocolate” because chapter 18 and … Continue reading Magnolia Chapter 4

And here is Magnolia chapter 3!  What is to become of our poor “prince!”  What’s up with that Vincent creep!?  Dude! You look like Paris Hilton! And why does Lover-Boy insist upon kissing Ayato!?

Magnolia Chapter 2

K3

Update 01/04/2011:  Minor change to page 29 that doesn’t impact the story.  The change was made to be consistent with the first “Lily” extra story.

New Series: "Magnolia" Chapter 1

K3

Here it is! Magnolia! There’s so much good stuff coming from Aria magazine! It so hard to choose which ones to do. I think, though, looking at the upcoming schedule, until another series ends, we can only do 3 of the 4 series from Aria that we’ve trialed. My current thought is to put off “Iiki no Ki” until the schedule loosens up. Let me know what you think. Links to “Magnolia” Chp 1 (Zip)(PDF) Next up is the final chapter of “Ouran High School Host Club.”  Until I get the raw, I will be working on “Orange Chocolate” chapter … Continue reading New Series: "Magnolia" Chapter 1
