"Fushigi no Maria-kun" Bonus Story: "The Wounds that Cover Us" (Manshinsoui no Futari")

K3

This is the extra short one-shot included in “Fushigi no Maria-kun” Volume 1.  It’s a cute little high school romance story.  I always like it when authors are able to tell a complete story in very few pages. Oh!  This is also the debut project for our newest typesetter, Rien!  Let’s all welcome Rien 🙂Links to “The Wounds that Cover Us”: (Zip) (PDF) The next chapter of “Fushigi no Maria-kun” will come out in March (hopefully).

"Fushigi no Maria-kun" Chapter 4

K3

First of all, and this has nothing to do with “Fushigi no Maria-kun”, there’s a great Taiwanese live action version of “Skip Beat” in the middle of its run.  It’s up to episode 4.  If you aren’t watching it, go watch it!  It can be found in “the usual places” (don’t ask, because I’m not telling). And now onto “Fushigi no Maria-kun”! It’s been a while since we’ve had a chapter!  As I’ve written before, this series is a challenge in every way.  I’ll like to thank Noir and Ichi for doing a wonderful cleaning and redrawing this chapter.  They … Continue reading "Fushigi no Maria-kun" Chapter 4

"Seirei Produce" Chapter 8

K3

Strangely enough, this chapter is very appropriate for Christmas because Amane’s backstory is eerily similar to the story of another spirit that descended to Earth whose birth we celebrate this time of year.  Hmmm…It’s an interesting twist on that story.  Hahaha!  I wonder if there will be any further parallels. In this chapter we get a big dose of Amane’s back story and the link between what happened to Shiina as a child when she died.  A lot of this links back the extra story that came out between chapters 5 and 6.  In case you haven’t read it, here’s … Continue reading "Seirei Produce" Chapter 8

"Seirei Produce" Chapter 7

K3

Huzzah!  “Seirei Produce” is back!  Oh how I missed the Amane/Fuuta comedy pair.  A note on chapters 5 and 6, I had a rare type of brainfart and I only saw the kanjis and discarded the furiganas for the middle brother’s name.  Instead of “Ookami the Black/Blue”, he is “Sou the Wolf”.  Personally, I like “Ookami the Black”…but that’s not the name the mangaka intended.  So it’s “Sou” from now on and I’ve gone back and updated chapters 5 and 6 (hopefully, I’ve caught all instances of it).I also decided to call Fuuta a Fox since the other two brothers … Continue reading "Seirei Produce" Chapter 7

Fushigi no Maria-kun Chp 3

K3

Tonight was anime night and I was wasn’t sure whether I was going to be able to post this tonight at all, so I did a quick post earlier.  Now I have time to write a full post. This is the third chapter for “Fushigi no Maria-kun” and this time we get to see matters from Maria’s perspective.  My gosh is Maria sweet and huggable!  I liked translating this chapter a lot.  Maria’s inner monologues are beautifully written in Japanese.  I hope I was able to translate some of that beauty into English.  Shiina Dai never ceases to amaze me … Continue reading Fushigi no Maria-kun Chp 3

Fushigi no Maria-kun Chapter 2

K3

Once again, “Fushigi no Maria-kun” proves to be our most difficult series to typeset.  Hopefully we caught all of the errors.  Anyhow…Maria and Toko continue on with their evolving relationship.  I really like how this chapter shows us the weirdness that happens when a childhood friendship starts to blossom into something more.  I like how the vampirism isn’t the focus of the story, but rather the backdrop.  I also like how the story is staying focused on Toko and Maria.  I must admit that I love this kind of innocent sweetness. Onto the links!  Links to “Fushigi no Maria-kun” Chapter … Continue reading Fushigi no Maria-kun Chapter 2

"Seirei Produce" Chapter 6

K3

Hopefully this isn’t the last of “Seirei Produce.”  Anyhow, in this chapter, Amane continues to “rock” the school girl uniform.  You have to admire his unwavering confidence.  Plus, there’s more of the handsome Ookami the Blue. Links to “Seirei Produce” chapter 6:  (Zip) (PDF) I’ll keep my eyes open for any more news on the continuation of “Seirei Produce” and I’ll update the status as soon as it changes. Next up is the short Ouran omake from the latest issue of Lala Special.  After that will be either “Pika Ichi” chapter 4 or the long version of “Furou Kyoudai.” Continue reading "Seirei Produce" Chapter 6
