Time to get started on Kurosawa volume 8, think this volume should take much faster than the last to get through, with ADS and Amuro helping out.

This month’s chapter of Farmland Moe is translated now. Good to see Yukimura back on track with normal monthly-length chapters after the recent breaks taken, which were caused by illnesses.

Kurosawa volume 7 is out! Much thanks to the editors, Natsume and vrex, without whom this project would be stalled. Hope you enjoyed the volume, there wasn’t as much badass moments as the last volume but still amusing nonetheless. But you can expect him to go dirty harry in the next volume.

Just a small post to on certain updates for those who may be wondering. Firstly, as some as you may have heard, Vertical has (surprisingly) licensed Litchi Hikari Club. This means that Anonymous Delivers and I won’t be working on it anymore, which is actually great news since Vertical will do a better job than we could ever do and with our current lack of good raws, it’d have taken forever to finish it. However, I do feel rather bad because this means that LHC will be the first project that I’ve officially dropped. As a long-time leecher, I’ve always hated it when groups dropped projects or went on an extremely long hiatus with no word of return because it seems like a kick in the balls for fans who’ve grown attached to their projects in question . But since this is a case where we’re dropping it due to licensing issues, it should be excusable.

Secondly on the news of future projects, the final volume of Noramimi will be up next, just in time to cure us of the depression that Goodnight Punpun may have left us in. After that, I’ll get through Hoshino Yukinobu’s Stardust Memories (no relation to the film of the same name) and then focus solely on wrapping up Legend of the Strongest Man Kurosawa. Also, I’m still having troubles with Share (though I still do have Perfect Dark running just fine) and I notice it’s that time for the monthlies to roll around again so I’d be much obliged if someone could provide an alternative link to Mirai Nikki, Historie, Vinland Saga raws that may come in the next few days.

Also, I finally got around to uploading these manga artstyle quizzes I made back around a week ago, which you can find here. That’s all for now.

Well it took longer than I’d have liked but volume 6 is finally done! Many thanks to Grenadier for buying and scanning this wonderful manga, and Anethum for properly cleaning up pages 6 and 51 (which are included for the batch volume 6 file). I sincerely hope that your reaction to this volume wasn’t just something as misguided as “bitches and whores” because Goodnight Punpun is about so much more than that and you would be missing out on a lot if that was your only reaction.

We’re all caught up with the latest volume released in Japan now, though I expect volume 7 to probably be released sometime soon. However I’m certainly in no position to buy and scan manga where I’m at so don’t expect me to work on v7 as soon as it is released unless you are willing to send me scans.

Sorry for the long delay, but my raw-provider for Punpun found himself busier than he anticipated. But in any case, here’s chapter 63. Hopefully, it shouldn’t be too far in the future when we wrap up the rest of volume 6. I should be able to finish up volume 6 by the end of this week.

“God” rears his ugly head and offers bad advice as usual. c64 is out.

It was a little upsetting how such a brilliantly funny manga as Shintaro Kago’s Dance! Kremlin Palace had yet to be completely translated so I took the liberty of translating the last 3 chapters to finish it up. In case you haven’t heard of this manga, it’s a comedy taking certain aspects of communism and Soviet Union and blowing them up to ridiculous and hilarious proportions. Pic related.

Just a warning for the easily offended, it is a Shintaro Kago manga so it will have a lot of sick and twisted stuff. Fortunately, there really aren’t any scat stuff unlike Dream Toy Factory. Thank Cheap Manga for translating the prologue and chapters 1-8!

Triple release of chapters 36, 37, and the extra brings volume 5 to a close. Thank Amuro again for his hard work in scanning, typesetting, and joke-making for each chapter.

And we’re done with volume 17! Hope you enjoyed Guan Yu being incredibly loyal and badass, because he’s going to crank it up another notch in the next volume. There is one minor omission that Yokoyama made in this volume, and that has to do with Guan Yu’s fabulous beard. One of Cao Cao’s attempts to win over Guan Yu’s heart is by gifting him A BEARD BAG SO GUAN YU WON’T DAMAGE HIS MANLY BEARD. Yes, you heard me correctly, Guan Yu’s beard is so ridiculously beautiful that he needs a goddamned beard bag to protect it. GUAN YU CONFIRMED as man with greatest beard in human history. As with the obnoxious Mi Heng, I assume Yokoyama left it out because it was a little ridiculous and not keeping in touch with the overall serious mood of Ro3K but BY GOD, I wish he had left it in.

Chapter 3 of La Croisade des Innocents is finally out! Sorry for the long hiatus but our editor over at Anonymous Delivers was busy with that dreaded thing called real life. In any case, I hope you enjoy the chapter.
