Short Series: Hanaibara Chapter 1

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

"many" Chapter 3 (End)

Here’s the last chapter of “many” and it’s a beach chapter!  Thanks again to Peonine for translating and Suzume for cleaning this project. This was a really cute short series.  I will say more “below the fold”. On to the release!Links to “many” chapter 3: (PDF) (Zip) My thoughts on the series (Highlight to see) —I was heartened to find a series that seemed to tastefully tell the story of a lesbian character, Tayama, dealing the object of her affection falling in love with a boy. I also liked the love-train of the sister’s twin brother being in love with … Continue reading "many" Chapter 3 (End)

Water-Themed One-Shot: "Shima x Dan: My Life with Boys on a Island"

As our proofreader Zenny pointed out, we don’t often do reverse harem projects.  “Ouran” was definitely a reverse harem and “Magnolia” was looking that way, though now it seems to have narrowed down to Ayato and Hugo with Nagi as the suffering third wheel.  Well, here you go! This is definitely are reverse harem, though it seemed to me a few pages in, Minato and one particular guy had already paired off.  Actually, if you look carefully at the title page, you can see one of the guys has already staked his claim. This is a super-cute one-shot from the … Continue reading Water-Themed One-Shot: "Shima x Dan: My Life with Boys on a Island"

Shiro Lala One-Shot: "The Sullen Baker and Me"

This unexpectedly became the first one-shot we released from Shiro Lala.  Please forgive us if you’ve already read this from Mousou Scans.  We were well on our way to completing this one-shot when they released it, but I didn’t want to waste the cleaning and redrawing work that had already been done and we did announce our intention to do this one-shot weeks back, so I decided to just crank this out now since it’s short. Anyhow, this one-shot is very different than what we are used to from Matsuri Hino.  It’s a very simple story and the character designs … Continue reading Shiro Lala One-Shot: "The Sullen Baker and Me"

Kaichou-san no Koneko Chp 2

Here is “Kaichou-san no Koneko” chapter 2. Link to “Kaichou-san no Koneko” chapter 2 There’s only one more chapter and very short omake left in this series! Next up is “Orange Chocolate” chapter 11.  I’m narrowing down on some potential one shots.  There are 3 recently released one-shots from from Kiyo Fujiwara that have caught my eye.  They look like humorous boyhood slice-of-life stories.  The two that just came out in in “The Hana to Yume” and the Baby extra comic book look extra-heartwarming.  As for a new series, I’m looking for something with some action and romance.  I’m currently … Continue reading Kaichou-san no Koneko Chp 2
