Oneshot: "Ongaku ga Mieru Otoko" ("The Man who Could See Music") by Tsukiji Nao

K3

FINALLY!!! It’s done! Tsukiji Nao oneshots are a pain in the butt to letter. This oneshot in particular had A LOT of text and sound effects.  A big thanks goes out Kaito and Aricania for lettering this project. Also, a HUGE thanks to Jade for translating all that text!  The English adaptation is GORGEOUS!  Hooray for Jade!!! I think she really nailed this one! This comes from the “Haikyo Shoujo” collection too. As you’ll notice all the oneshots from that collection are connected by junk piles/ruins and hallucinations. This oneshot, in particular, has a nice life lesson — one I … Continue reading Oneshot: "Ongaku ga Mieru Otoko" ("The Man who Could See Music") by Tsukiji Nao

"Pochamani" Chapter 7

K3

Thanks to everyone for waiting patiently for us to continue “Pochamani”.  I wanted to do this chapter in particular in high quality, and I think it was well worth the wait. From now on to be in-synch with the tankoubon releases, we will release one chapter per month. We anticipate no multiple months long hiatuses in the near to mid-range future. I’ve included the artwork from the volume 2 tankoubon, so if you are feeling inspired, I would love some Pochamani banners for the blog (width: 1250px, height: 250 – 350px, PSD with separate text layer preferred) Oh! I almost … Continue reading "Pochamani" Chapter 7

"Hakamori Majo Bianca" Chapter 4

K3

Bianca’s back with two more chapters! Having read both of the new chapters, it seems that the story isn’t over yet. Hopefully with encouragement from readers in Japan, we’ll get a few more chapters to complete the story. (It seems to me that a chapter or two more ought to be enough content to publish in a tanakoubon.) We pick up the story with Bianca more confused than ever and poor Nelo clumsily trying to play cupid.  I truly like Nelo.  She’s a sweet girl. I’d like to see a spinoff where she finds magic success and a love of … Continue reading "Hakamori Majo Bianca" Chapter 4

New Series: "many" Chapter 1 by Kakeru Tsutsumi

K3

Tonight we are debuting a new short series “many”. It’s only three chapters long, and we anticipate releasing the next two chapters within this month (though I’m not promising that). Thanks to Peonine for a lovely translation, Suzume and Yoriko for cleaning and redrawing, and lastly to Holanio for typesetting.

This series has a nice summer feel.  Typically, I don’t like high school love trains, but the … Continue reading New Series: "many" Chapter 1 by Kakeru Tsutsumi

"Magnolia" Chapter 33

K3

With this chapter, we are caught up again to the Japanese release of this series.  Just to set your expectations correctly, this is a monthly series that runs in Aria magazine. Aria releases every month on the 28th. The story takes a big leap forward with this chapter.  Thank goodness, because I was getting tired of  beating around the bush.  Now that we’ve spent time exploring each possibility for Ayato and establishing that Ayato has no interest in girls, we can move onto the next arc.  What that will be about is tough to say because there are many possibilities.  … Continue reading "Magnolia" Chapter 33

"Magnolia" Chapter 32

K3

I am crazy sleepy, so everything I write after this point might be gibberish. I’m sorry.  Anyhow… we’re starting to get somewhere with this chapter of “Magnolia”.  I totally ship Alexandra x Ayato…but well… that wouldn’t make things interesting. Still I like Alexandra and Robert and I hope they still have a role in the story moving forward, or maybe they’ll get a little spinoff like “Lily”. I would really like that.  Hugo, Hugo… what will we do with you? Damn men like him. He so infuriating, but at the same time overwhelmingly sexy. But we’ll get to more about … Continue reading "Magnolia" Chapter 32
