"The Ghost Apartment Manager" Chapter 12 and Chapters 1 – 11 Catch Up

I was toying around with releasing this yesterday, and then “Orcs Must Die 2” happened to me and my husband. It’s a simple video game, but it’s so addictive, especially if you have some other people to play with.  That game may ruin my life for the next couple of weeks. It’s been a while since we released a chapter of “The Ghost Apartment Manager”. It isn’t that I’m not not excited about this series. To the contrary, finishing the series makes feel kinda sad because it’s so good. I’ve decided, though, that we will put more effort into finishing … Continue reading "The Ghost Apartment Manager" Chapter 12 and Chapters 1 – 11 Catch Up

Lala Fantasy Oneshot: "Vered no Rosemary" by Hitsuji Harumi

This is one of the oneshot from Lala Fantasy, a special Fantasy themed Lala magazine. The frontis page of this oneshot struck me. It looks like one of those carved cameo. I also like the rosemary wreathe and the ornament in Rose’s hair. I really enjoyed Peonine and Jade’s translation of this oneshot. Great job ladies! Ahhh… and Ichi’s redraws… Hee! Anyhow, I’m a sucker for royal romance like this one. And now onto the release!Links to “Vered no Rosemary”: (PDF) (Zip) Next up will be our last release for one anniversary! Please look forward to it! Continue reading Lala Fantasy Oneshot: "Vered no Rosemary" by Hitsuji Harumi

Oneshot: "Shoujo Jump" by Yuu Kurumi

We wanted to release this during the Winter Olympics, but the release didn’t come together until now. Thanks to Ichi for taking on and producing some wonderful redraws! Thanks to Peonine and Jade for the translation! And lastly, thanks to Suzume for lettering the oneshot. This is an ice skating oneshot, obviously. Haha! I thought it was super cute and I like the action drawings, something we rarely see in shoujo. It’s too bad we’ll not see any sports shoujo manga soon since the US publishers assume we won’t buy the series. Grr…  I hope you all enjoy this confection! … Continue reading Oneshot: "Shoujo Jump" by Yuu Kurumi

"Hanaibara" Epilogue

Here’s the short “Hanaibara” extra story that came after chapter 3. I got a good laugh out of this short, but I think it sums up where the story ended. I’ll miss these three. Maybe we’ll get lucky in the future and see a oneshot with these characters. It seems to happen all the time in Wings magazine. If you enjoyed this short series, please buy the book and show Mio Kawahara your love. The book is lovely and comes with color pages and some nice extras.  Here are some links to purchase: ISBN-13: 9784800000996 Amazon JPYes Asia ($9.99 + … Continue reading "Hanaibara" Epilogue

"Hanaibara" Chapter 3 (End)

This is the final chapter of the “Hanaibara” main story. We’ll release the short extra story tomorrow. I guess I really can’t discuss the chapter without spoiling, so I’ll write a comment in a day or so. Oh! There is also a oneshot called “Dirge” in the “Hanaibara” compilation. We’ll present that during our “Halloween” oneshot party later in the year. I hope you’ve enjoyed this series and please look forward to the extra short story tomorrow! And now onto the release! Links to “Hanaibara” Chapter 3 (PDF) (Zip) After the “Hanaibara” short story tomorrow, we will continue the celebration … Continue reading "Hanaibara" Chapter 3 (End)
