"Fushigi no Maria-kun" Chapter 6

Sorry for the long wait.  I had a tough time with the translation because of all of the sexual subtext and mysterious casual male speech coming out of Teru’s mouth. A few pages have gone through 3 or 4 revisions.  I’d like to thank Jade, Katsuragi Mizuho, and DangoChan for helping me with the thorny parts of the chapter. Hopefully, we got most of the translation correct.  Unfortunately, chapter 7 isn’t going much better, but we’ll get through it. Dai-sensei got some CRAZY run on sentences and chopped of sentence fragments in the chapter that are slowing me down. On … Continue reading "Fushigi no Maria-kun" Chapter 6

"Pochamani" Chapter 4

RECRUITMENT:  We need proofreaders/QCers. I you’re interested, go here. ——————————————-And suddenly this seemingly innocuous and sweet story goes someplace totally unexpected… *_* Whut? Is Tsumugi seriously saying that?! We knew what was on Tagami’s mind… but, dude, really? Anyhow, I tried to be as delicate as possible with the translation in hopes of not making it look as though things took a sudden 90-degree turn.  Still, it’s refreshing to see a female character not shy away from carnal feelings. And thank goodness for Mami and Seiji. Two have been good check valves so far.  Though, I still have suspicions about … Continue reading "Pochamani" Chapter 4

"Ore to Atashi no Kareshisama" Chapter 3

We are trying to get this series on a monthly schedule, but the redraws are crazy hard, so each chapter is taking a while to complete. Hopefully we’ll get some help soon so we can do multi-chapter releases after we finish “Fushigi no Maria-kun” and “Furou Kyoudai.” Anyhow, we’re doing our best with this series. If you have some Photoshop redrawing skills and a little bit of free time, please lend us a hand so we can stay on schedule (even one or two pages of help per chapter will make a difference). This chapter has all of the typical … Continue reading "Ore to Atashi no Kareshisama" Chapter 3

"Lily" Chapter 5 Version 2

Updated 01/26/2013:  I’m releasing a new version because a couple of changes to the translation made a significant difference in the story. We always try to give you the best translation possible, so when we find errors, we go back and fix them.  I recommend that you re-read the chapter, and if you are collecting the downloads, please download the files again.—————————————— And with this release we are caught up with “Lily” and ending our “Magnolia” ‘Splosion. Hopefully, from now on we will be able to stay up to date with both series. Itan magazine is now a bi-monthly magazine … Continue reading "Lily" Chapter 5 Version 2

"Magnolia" Chapter 28

First of all, thanks to those of you who have supported Omari’s Sister through the purchase of used manga and magazine goodies! There are still a lot great books and items left.  Please help clear my bookshelves and storage boxes and provide the group with cash to buy raws for the series you love by purchasing stuff. There are great shipping deals for US buyers and $15/lb shipping for International buyers.(LINK)————————————————-Continuing on with our “Magnolia” ‘Splosion, here is chapter 28.  With this we are caught up on the series!  This is the other side of what’s happening while Sui and … Continue reading "Magnolia" Chapter 28

"Magnolia" Chapter 27

First a bit of business! Omari’s Sister Store is OPEN!  New books and items have been added for your enjoyment. (LINK)—————————————————————–We are working our way through our back log. I’m trying my best to at least keep “Magnolia” up to date. If possible, later on today we’ll release chapter 28 and then “Lily” chapter 5 will come out on Friday or Saturday. Moving on… there’s some parallelism between Alexandra’s dilemma and Lily’s troubles in “Lily” chapter 5.  But Alexandra’s dilemma is much more complicated, and honestly, I don’t know what to make of his situation.  I suppose if he knew … Continue reading "Magnolia" Chapter 27

Detarame Mousouryoku Opera Chapters 1 – 3 (end)

Phew! I am so glad to have this series behind me now! Yeah, I bitched and moaned at every step, but it’s a very good short series and I’m glad I went through the aggravation. Like “Seigi no Mikata,” this feels like it was only the beginning of a longer story. I would like to see that longer story, but not if I have to translate it.  (It’s my hope that Viz will continue to publish English versions of Bisco Hatori’s works. Honestly, Hatori-sensei’s works need to be professionally translated because her writing is a difficult read.) And with this, … Continue reading Detarame Mousouryoku Opera Chapters 1 – 3 (end)

"Pochamani" Chapter 1 – 3 (with Zip option)

Update 8/24/2013:  Magnificent Rangers changed to Gluttony Rangers in Chapter 2. First of all, I am providing zips for your convenience so you can make fanart and what not. Please DO NOT upload the zips to manga aggregators. We don’t approve of manga aggregators, and therefore do not want our work posted to them. Second: we need winter banners! (Link to specs) Okay, onto the release. I’m going to post the links first and then comment on chapter 2. I suggest you read my thoughts on chapter 2 after reading the chapter. Links to Pochamani Chapters: Chapter 1 (Zip) (PDF) … Continue reading "Pochamani" Chapter 1 – 3 (with Zip option)
