In a Row!

Another raw out today! It said 'low quality', but it was definitely good enough for me to use. But seriously, why release LQ scans anyways? Just scan it right the first time. Who's releasing them this way, anyways? 12mb for the new Bleach volume? It makes me sad, really. I hope 'they' release a normal version, because I can't use pages 660 pixels tall.

Sidetracked for a second..... Today's awesome June release is Reborn! vol 39. The covers lately have been a little crazy for the series. It just doesn't seem to flow right, but I'm glad Boss got on the cover! I wish Squalo had mad it too, though....
The next thing I'm waiting on is Bleach (in English), right? Could be a while before I get them, end of this week at the earliest (if I'm being optimistic), but I think it could be longer....

Ja, I'm gonna keep enjoying June all the way to the end!

So fast!

The raws came out today, which made me so excited that I already finished putting it together. Reborn! vol 38 is done, so quickly after getting the other ones out! Nice timing, I think. There aren't too many extras that need translating. The interview at the end with Verde and the Kokuyo gang would be nice to have. If someone ever does translate it, I'll be sure to add it! Anyways, find it in the usual place to download (on the Reborn! page; check the index).
Ja ne~

A Blob of Random Updates: I'm thinking of getting rid of Kasumi. It's only two volumes long, the scans suck (my very first scanning project....), and it's been suspended (probably indefinitely). I'll probably get rid of it in a week. I also took down the fate/zero light novels. I really hated that show.... King Arthur cannot be two genders!! And about my versions of Toradora!; I got rid of the files I had, so if they ever get taken down from mediafire, they're done. Baka and Test vol 5 should be completely translated soon! I really love that series. Also, Yen Press is really slow on the Spice and Wolf. I was gonna wait on their official versions, but the fan translations are taking a big lead. I think I'm gonna add those once this next volume is finished (that would be volumes 6, 8, & 9). Although the Yen Press version of 6 is coming out in June, so I might wait for that....

Reborn! Manga Ver. V

Uploaded all 37 volumes of Reborn! in all their re-buffed glory. It's definitely worth re-snagging all of them, because I've added a bunch of stuff, like:

• Missing Color Pages (from the first 10 or so volumes)
• Translations for a bunch of the Interviews at the end of each volume
• Translations for all of the Box Info (in between the chapters of vols 21-29?)
• Redrawn Table of Contents (that look more like the original!)
• Translations for all of the funny omake at the end of a bunch of volumes
• Re-drawn or Inserted Tankoubon pages (sometimes the panels are redrawn when they're released in volume form, and sometimes there's an extra page or 2 (or 4...) added in a chapter to make more sense. I translated a bunch of these because no one had posted translations online. It's not the best translation, but the basic meaning is there)

You get the gist, right. They've been 'Version Up'-afied. Now that I've seen the anime, putting the manga together made more sense.

Well, until next time~

Slow day, huh...

Well, I said I'd have more up:

Katekyo Hitman Reborn! vols 31, 33, & 36

This means I'm completely caught up on Reborn!! Unfortunately, volume 31 is missing the pretty under cover.... but I didn't want to withhold it just for that.

Aaaand: Tsubasa: RESERVoir CHRoNiCLE vol 6 is done. Took me longer than it should have. Can't promise I'll have 10 up before the end of the week, but I'll try.

Download everything in its usual place (check the index). And enjoy it on your Kindle, or computer.
Ja ne~

Title Here

Some new raws showed up today!

Katekyo Hitman Reborn! vol 32 & 37 are finally done. I'll have 33 tomorrow (or later today, depending on how you look at it). I've gotta say, the coloring in Reborn is really amazing.
Expect another volume of Tsubasa later, too. I'm gonna try to get one volume out every day, but to be honest, it's pretty monotonous work.

Super End-of-the-Year Mega Surprise Massive Upload Update!

Muahahahaha! I made you all think I was missing for the holidays. Or that I had become a lazy, once-a-month poster like all those other lame guys!

It was hard for me to not update for more than a week, but I've been hard at work ever since my last post!

Since the end of the year is pretty much the greatest time of all, I wanted to finish everything I'd been working on (or said I would be working on) and make a giant Upload Update! So here it is!

First off:

Akemashite Omedetou Gozaimasu~!!

^^ my second-choice banner for the site. It was a lot more fun to make, but lost out to the one up now. Pretty, right!

Second: Site Changes

You may (or may not) have noticed a few changes to the blog layout over the past week or so. I changed up the index page, trying to make it a bit more understandable. Plus it's in alphabetical order now! I'll try my best to tweak the layout to ultimate perfection this year.

NEXT: Uploads!

Now comes the part worth caring about! A list of all my end-of-the-year uploads! (about a week and a half worth of work ^_^ ) You can find the right page to download all of these by checking the index (up top).

Katekyo Hitman Reborn! volumes 1-30. Viz stopped releasing volumes, so unfortunately only the first 10 have English extras, all the rest have Japanese. I finally found the raw for 32 & 33, but I can't find the password. How about a treasure hunt game? I'll give you something special! It's somewhere on here?

Bamboo Blade volume 1. I really really like this series, but the yen press copies are a bit harder for me to come across. I'll do my best to finish it up this coming year.

Full Metal Panic! novels 1 (Fighting Boy Meets Girl) and 2 (Running One Night Stand). Yup, that's right! Nowhere else on the web can you find these in English. I'm in desperate need of someone who has volume 3 now. Oh, and I'm sorry for any typos or weird characters. Once I read it, I'll edit it better and re-post it (that goes for all my light novels).

Moving on, the next few things are series that I've never had any contact with. So far, everything on my site has the 100% rm3991 guarantee of awesome, but I wanted to start branching out. I heard these series might be good, so I picked them up (big thanks to baka-tsuki).

Toradora! light novels (all 10) . This one looks like it might be a bit like Haruhi. Thanks to baka-tsuki's translations and site format, it was incredibly easy for me to get through all 10 of these in time.

Fate/Zero light novels (all 4). I'm really not sure why I decided on doing this series. Maybe because it was complete? Anyways, it's seems kind of video game-istic to me (like, those Tales of games). These novels are a prequel to the Fate Stay Night anime.

Utsuro no Hako to Zero no Maria light novels (4). This series says it's not complete, but it's been a while since the fourth novel came out. It looks super interesting. I can't help but think that it'll make your brain hurt, though....

Tabi ni Deyou, Horobiyuku Sekai no Hate Made light novel. This is a one-shot that looked pretty interesting to me, so here it is!

Fourth: Future Projects

I'm glad to be able to start the New Year with Baka and Test at the top of the project list. I really really really love that show.

I also plan on buying The Observation of Suzumiya Haruhi Fan Book, Durarara!!x9, and Durarara!!x10 (raw). I have translations for the first two, so I can scan and typeset them. Soon, I hope to be able to do Durarara!!x10, but that's up to the translators.

As for other future projects, I'm gonna keep up with the manga series I have now. Plus, I want to work on Soul Eater, but beyond that, I don't know. I'll do my best to add more stuff people like, so please tell me what you want. The bigger the list, the easier it is for me to choose!

And Last: Comments

I like it when people ask questions or leave comments.

If you're a bit confused or are having problems with my format, let me know! Or tell me what you'd like for me to work on next! Either leave a comment, e-mail me, or message my livejournal [here]. I know I don't post much there, but I always read my messages and comments.

Well, I guess that's it. If you made it all the way through that, THANKS!
Ja ne~~ and...

Happy New Year, everyone!
