WOW!, Dicks, Suppositories, and Joint Announcements!



Alright, so, first up, we've got more Anal Angel.  Again, the dialog in combination with the expressions is hilarious, and we decensored the delicious penises (not my opinion, they are delicious by canon within the story, so there) again.  There's also plot and character development this chapter, which is always both nice and a little strange in your porn.  An ongoing story was one of the reasons we picked this up though, so it's nice to see things progressing.

The other release for tonight is a biggie.  It's our first solo volume completion (we've finished other stuff where other people left off, but this one's ours from start to finish)!  Mei no Naisho chapter 8 and the extras, available both on it's own and as a volume batch download!  This chapter's more on the comedy/fanservice side, it almost seems like it alternates the more plot/character development chapters with ones like this.  Still a lot of fun, and there were quite a few places I really enjoyed working with the dialog, since there were puns, a book being read aloud, and all kinds of stuff this time.

Alright, since some of the new joint work is starting to make progress, I feel a little more comfortable throwing out series names and stuff since it's less likely to die before release.  First up is Houkago Play, I'm helping out an alliance of anons with some translations on the second volume...  I sent off the script for the first chapter this morning, but since I haven't worked with them before I have no clue what that means for a release ETA.  I'm also doing some work with a group called 4-Koma Scans on a series called Imouto wa Shishunki.  This one really reminds me of Seitokai Yakuindomo in a lot of ways.  The translations for some of the earlier chapters are kind of spotty, but I don't think it's really worth going back and redoing, at least not right now.  Expect mirrors of the earlier parts of these and spots on the projects page along with the first releases.

Just as a matter of keeping you all in the loop, too, we'll have new Prunus Girl around the end of the month, provided it actually runs in the magazine this month.

    Imouto wa Shishunki and Seitokai Yakuindomo are done by the same guy

  2. Ah, interesting. That makes sense, but it also seems sort of like he can't write a new story, since the similarities really pile up. In either case, I think it's pretty funny, so check it out.

  5. OverDrive is proceeding slowly. We had someone join up to work on it and then disappear, which is one reason for the wait this time, and I'm starting to realize I enjoy reading it a lot more than I enjoy translating it... I know there's literally 11 1/2 volumes left to go, but I don't see the release pace speeding up terribly much unless we either get some help on it or the story starts moving a little quicker and I start having more fun working on it.

  6. I was wondering who the girl in your banner is and what manga/anime is she from? Btw your scans are great!

    Thanks!

  7. Our mascot is Haruka-sempai from Amagami SS. It's a dating sim game that got adapted into an anime recently. She's in the first arc, and she's also where the "WOW!" in WOW!scans came from (her engrish is adorable).

  9. Wait, Imouto wa Shishunki and Houkago Play? Are you purposely going for manga that I had completely given up hope on for more translations?

    Seriously huge fucking thank you for this news.

  10. Are you guys going to do Mei's Vol 1 extras? The Volume 1 you guys have doesn't have them :(

  11. The vol 1 is just a mirror, we started in vol 2. That said, if you have a copy of the vol one extras raw, we'll jump right on it. Otherwise, I'm going to have to weigh and consider whether the volume extras are worth the cost of buying raws and doing shipping from Japan.
