This is a slice-of-life short story from Avarus magazine that we’ve been working on for quite a while. Thanks to Peonine for the lovely translation. “Hanaibara” is another series that involves an erotic fiction novelist. Are you spotting a trend? I’m glad I waited until the tankoubon released because it includes some gorgeous color illustrations. Flowers are a motif throughout the story, so to give some context, Peonine provided some translation notes. They will be placed at the end of each chapter. This series is 3 chapters long plus an epilogue. We will be releasing each chapter and epilogue nightly. … Continue reading Short Series: Hanaibara Chapter 1
Here’s the second “Petite Peche” story. This story explores Yori and Momo’s budding friendship more. I wish there were more to this than two stories because I really want to learn more about each woman’s individual personality. I guess I … Continue reading Ane Lala Oneshot: "Petite Peche" Story 2
Let’s get our 5th-year anniversary started with the mangaka that begin it all, Bisco Hatori! Yes, before we limited ourselves to unlicensed content, I started scanlating “Ouran High School Host Club”. That seems so long ago! Thanks to everyone for … Continue reading Let’s Get this Party Started! Ane Lala Oneshot: "Petite Peche" Story 1 by Bisco Hatori
Under normal circumstances, we would not touch any series from Shueisha because of over-representation in scanlation and licensed content. I’m taking a gamble that this series will not be licensed because the main characters are in their mid and late 30s. This is from the same mangaka who brought us “Sunadokei” (“The Hour Glass” or “Sand Chronicle”) and “Piece”. Haha! Hopefully this won’t go off the rails like “Sunadokei” did. I picked this series because I like Hara, the main male character, and because bread. Do I really need any other justification beyond “bread-baking megane”? Anyhow, I hope you all … Continue reading New Josei Series: "Bread & Butter" Chapter 1

In this chapter, Sagara is starting to be pushed into accepting that she is now girl and we learn more details … Continue reading "Kanojo ni Naru Hi — Another" Chapter 4
It’s been about two weeks since our last release. The slow pace is because we’ve begun working on projects for our 5th-year anniversary. I’m not sure whether we’ll begin on June 1st or start on June 26th, the actually day of our anniversary. Either way, it will be a month long event. Until then, our regular series will be a little slow. We need typesetters/letterers for the next 3 months. If you are an experience letterer and would like to help, please send me (Kuroneko003) an email via the link in the upper right hand corner of this blog. Also, … Continue reading "Baraou no Souretsu" Chapter 6
