Water-Themed One-Shot: "Kujira ni Kisusuru Hi" ("The Day I Kissed a Whale") by Yutaka Asano

K3

Some thanks first :).  Thanks to Holanio for lettering her butt on this one-shot, and thanks to La Noche de los Caidos for helping us clean and redraw this one-shot.  Thanks to you ladies, this one-shot looks gorgeous! Oh, and let’s not forget Jade for doing a great translation! This is probably the most typical shoujo work we’ve done since chapters 3 – 8 of “Pika Ichi.”  First a warning, if you know anything about whales, sea diving, or underwater photography, clear that knowledge from your brain now.  This is a fantasy and fantastic things happen.  Second, this is more … Continue reading Water-Themed One-Shot: "Kujira ni Kisusuru Hi" ("The Day I Kissed a Whale") by Yutaka Asano

"Servamp" Chapter 3

K3

I sincerely apologize for the slow pace at which we are releasing this series. Hopefully we’ll be able to release chapters 4 and 5 before the end of the year.  We’re really working hard now on finishing our shorter series and on the one-shots that have been stewing on my desk for months.  Regardless, the group loves this series, so sooner or later we’ll accelerate the series and catch up (along with Rex Fabula and Ore to Atashi no Kareshi-sama). Anyhow…we get more information about the new cackling Servamp that showed up at the end of chapter 2.  He’s kind … Continue reading "Servamp" Chapter 3

"Magnolia" Chapter 24

K3

Oh Nagi, what evil pills has Vincent given to you?! No don’t take them!!! Nagi!!! This is a very short chapter and most of it is flashback. It seems that Naked Ape is going to get the most out of Queen Angela’s letter.  But I understand…they’re busy.  They’ve got two series running in Zero-Sum magazine and private works they offer through their own website. Anyhow…enjoy the 30-seconds of pleasure!Link to “Magnolia” chapter 24: (PDF) Next up…I don’t know.  We are currently working on “Servamp” chapter 3, “The Day I Kissed a Whale”, “Summer Blue,” and the “Pochama ni” prequel one-shot.

Aria One-Shot: "Young Shinba and the Sleeping Giants" by Haru Maebashi

K3

This one-shot has been simmering on the back burner for over a year.  We’ve been working on it bit by bit for that long until it snuck up on me all lettered and nearly ready for release.  I was gonna release a few days ago, but I decided not to bury “Ojousama no Untenshu,” so I let it sit a little longer. Anyhow…this is shounenish one-shot from Aria magazine.  The premise is good, but as a one-shot there aren’t nearly enough pages to fully flesh-out the concept and the story. I would have liked to have seen this as 3 … Continue reading Aria One-Shot: "Young Shinba and the Sleeping Giants" by Haru Maebashi

"Ojousama no Untenshu" Chapter 4

K3

Here’s chapter 4 as promised! It’s the older-woman-hits-on-Narutaki chapter we all expected. Get your eye-rolls over with now.  Forget the pretty older lady, what’s entertaining here is Sayaka’s reaction to Narutaki’s and Miss Fumi’s relationship.  Now that this expected chapter is over with, guess what comes next??? Geez, I wonder could Sayaka’s father could have picked out a fiancee for Sayaka. Noooooo, that would never happen. That would be be way too predictable.  Hahaha! As I’ve said before, I don’t mind cliches as long as they are done well (and there’s nicely drawn eye candy…ahem…cough…cough). Oh and some notes for … Continue reading "Ojousama no Untenshu" Chapter 4

"Ojousama no Untenshu" Chp 3

Watery banners are needed for August!!!! (width 1250 px, max height 350 px) I hadn’t realized that it’s been more than 3 months since we last released a chapter of this series. Time does fly! Anyhow, we are accelerating this series. Our goal is to complete the series in September, which means we will be release 2 or 3 chapters per month. In fact, chapter 4 will be released tomorrow! Let’s give thanks to Amrai for her wonderful translation. This series is quite a challenge both in terms of translation and English adaptation. In light of the recently reignited honorific … Continue reading "Ojousama no Untenshu" Chp 3

"Lily" Chapter 4

K3

I have the sinking feeling that this chapter is going to piss a lot of people off. It’s well worn shoujo territory and there are lots of folk who read OS who are opposed to student/teacher relationships, including myself. Unfortunately, this is part of the “Magnolia” story, so I can’t just not translate it. That would be weird. I had to set a lot of my brain aside to accept this chapter. First I had to set aside my hatred for student/teacher relationship fantasies, then I had to set aside my hatred for age gap fantasies, and finally I had … Continue reading "Lily" Chapter 4
