Ojou-chan is back! Since these are gag shorts, I’ll just post the images here instead of having files to download. There will be another short tomorrow, so look forward to it! Continue reading "Happiness Lawn — Ojou-sama is in Danger"
Happy Halloween everybody! If you’re going out trick-or-treating or taking your kids out trick-or-treating, please stay safe. Take a flashlight and stay on the sidewalks. Here’s our Halloween oneshot! It’s the final part of Nari Kusakawa’s Vampire Trilogy! This has been a lovely journey through time. I hope some other mangaka do some related stories like this and “The Lovely Vampire Weddings” trilogy. This story is about Aurelia, the vampire who bit Ashleigh and Kiriko. It’s kinda sad to see how she was compared to how she is in “Tasogare Renren”. It kinda makes me wonder about Kiriko’s future. Anyhow, … Continue reading Halloween Oneshot 2: "Hoshi wa Akatsuki no Kage" (The Stars are the Dawn’s Shadow) by Nari Kusakawa
It’s already Halloween for some parts of the world, so let’s get on with the Halloween cuteness. This is a short oneshot that came out in Shiro Lala 2012. Get out a hankey, because I bet this little oneshot is … Continue reading Halloween Oneshot 1: "Kaeribana no Kanojo" ("The Return of the Flower Girl") by Meca Tanaka
Here’s “Magnolia” Chapter 36. I thought this was going to be an arc about the King and Ayato, but I guess it isn’t. Rather, it’s just follows Ayato and his buddies through the aftermath of the masquerade party. To my surprise, Hollier is a hardcore shipper. I was laughing heartily at the panels where she appears. Hollier is a good girl. I wish the best for her. Alexandra owns my heart. I really like him. Go with your heart, you beautiful man! Ah Hugo… Hee! Finally, the drawing of him I’ve been waiting for and it’s cute! Hee! There’s hope … Continue reading "Magnolia" Chapter 36
This oneshot originally appeared as the feature oneshot in Aka Lala last year. We’ve been sitting on it for a while and finally got up the courage to take it on a couple of weeks ago. It helped that the oneshot was released in the “Boku no Hitsugi de Bansan wo” (“Shall we have Dinner in my Coffin”) short story compilation. Having the tankoubon version saved us a lot of time cleaning. On a side note, included in the short story compilation are “Boku no Hitsugi de Bansan wo” and “Shinobigoto“, both of which we have already translated. Please check … Continue reading Long-Form Oneshot: "Tasogare Renren" ("Longing for Dusk") by Nari Kusakawa
Continuing on with Lord Phantom’s pursuit of Hiromi, we have “Magical Change” Chapter 2! Honestly, I don’t know where this manga is going, but Lord Phantom seems like a nice enough guy. I am suspicious of Garnet Red now considering … Continue reading "Magical Change" Chapter 2
And now we begin the Valentine’s Day arc! The thing I didn’t want to happen happens, but it’s handled with typical Tsumugi kindness. The chapter ends with a question we thought was already answered, but… let’s just say in the … Continue reading "Pochamani" Chapter 9
