"Sekai no Hate no Sougen de" ("The Grassy Plain at the Edge of the World") by Keiko Ishihara

Update: The file have be updated to correct a couple translation errors.  Those of you with digital collections may want to re-download the file. First of all, as you can see in the bottom left corner of the title page, “Ojousama no Untenshu” volume 2 will be available for purchase on March 5th.  Here’s a link to pre-order it from Amazon JP.  I’ll post links to other online stores once the book is actually released. On to the one-shot!  This one-shot is rather subtle.  It took 3 readings for me to get the entirety of the message.  For those of … Continue reading "Sekai no Hate no Sougen de" ("The Grassy Plain at the Edge of the World") by Keiko Ishihara

One-Shot: "Kirara to Shiro Ookami" ("Kirara and the White Wolf")

As you can see on this title page, “Ao no Rhapsodia”, a collection of Akane Ogura’s one-shots is now available for purchase.  I have a copy and we will be translating some of the one-shots.  If you wish to purchase your own copy, here are some links: Amazon JP Yes Asia I can also piggyback order it for you ($8.50 + postage).  If you are interested, send me an e-mail. Okay, now onto the one-shot. This one-shot reminds me of a light comedic version of “Ginrou no Sakura” for a younger audience.  It’s a super cute one-shot.  I really like … Continue reading One-Shot: "Kirara to Shiro Ookami" ("Kirara and the White Wolf")

One-Shot: "Komugi and the Cuisine of the World Boys"

K3

At last, we finally get this one-shot out!  We wanted to release this as our special Thanksgiving one-shot, but it got lost in the excitement of Kuro Lala and Shiro Lala.  Please forgive me Cuisine Boys!  This was a joint project with The Zero Alliance, so head over to their website if you prefer RAR files. As you can guess, this one-shot is about food and magical boys who cook food.  How could I resist?  It turned out to be a much sweeter story that I anticipated (as most stories thing do — haha).  Regardless, it was a pleasant surprise.Oh, … Continue reading One-Shot: "Komugi and the Cuisine of the World Boys"

Surprise One-Shot: "Wait until it’s Dark" by Sakura Tsukuba

K3

Since we’ve been burn before on Sakura Tsukuba one-shots, we decided to be quiet about this one and wait a little while to see if another group was going to do it first.  After waiting a couple of weeks, we decided to go ahead and take the chance to translate it.  I really don’t like keeping things a secret, but I think in this case it may have been worth it. Anyhow, this is a very easygoing and pleasant one-shot.  It’s perfect for a mid-winter read.  As expected, the artwork is also very nice.Without further ado, here are the links: … Continue reading Surprise One-Shot: "Wait until it’s Dark" by Sakura Tsukuba

One-Shot: "Saigo no Negai" ("The Last Prayer")

K3

I wanted to release this New Year’s Eve as a cautionary tale about drunk driving, but alas, the Computer Gods interfered.  Anyhow…this is a really sweet story despite its shounen qualities.  I like the message about what parents will endure for the sake of their children.   Pay attention to Shun’s hand during the story.  It’s really neat how this repeated element ties everything together at the end.  On to the links! Links to “Saigo no Negai”: (Zip) (PDF) Next up will be “Fushigi no Maria-kun” Chp 4! Continue reading One-Shot: "Saigo no Negai" ("The Last Prayer")

One-Shot: "Seimei desu ga nani ka?" ("I’m Seimei. What of it?")

K3

WAH-BAM!  It’s another one-shot!  This one is a “Shounen for girls” type of one-shot.  I wanted to release this one over a year ago, but it kept getting kicked down the road.  I’m happy we finally finish this one.  Big thanks to Blotty Parchment for taking on the challenge of translating this one-shot.  There were a lot of exorcist terms she had to research.  On top of that, there are language differences between Shoujo and Shounen manga.  It can be a little tough for folks like us who aren’t native Japanese speakers.  Also, thanks to Sapphire Pyro for the beautiful … Continue reading One-Shot: "Seimei desu ga nani ka?"
