Himichu no Ayako-sama - 1

So I know you all remember that Champion RED series I was talking about. Well, this is it! The first chapter is kinda overkill in exposition, but it's not too bad and the later chapters are much better. This series is kinda like Sora no Otoshimono in terms of fanservice, but not quite as good in the comedy department, and (so far) it doesn't have a particularly serious storyline. Still, it's pretty good overall.

There are some kanji that were specified to be read as french words, but in the credits page I gave definitions for some of them. If I missed one you don't get just post a comment here. Other than that, sorry for the somewhat low raw quality, but it's a magazine scan and trust me the actual pages DO look like this (ie. blacks aren't fully filled in). I think that's it for now so links below:

Update 6/1 - I just thought that the page numbers might cause problems for some people's readers (and watashiwa7 confirmed it as I went to update this). So all DDL links have been replaced with a v2 where the page numbers are numbered as 01, 02, 03, etc. so that the first 10 pages aren't out of of order. I really wish CDisplay would read things in the same order windows does, maybe I should make my own reader that does? Also, here's page 03 from this chapter with the title on it. I decided to typeset them after all while I was working on chapter 2.

Umisho - 80

2 chapters within just a few hours!? I must be crazy. No, seriously, fuck cleaning this chapter with all of Takeda's detailed reaction faces covered in text. Well, it was a text-heavy chapter but at least you know who the new captain is.

Also I've gotten a few e-mails that asked about various things, and one thing people were curious about was the size of the staff here. So to answer any future e-mails: yes, it's just one person, and has been since the start (except the obvious joint with otakami). I may be looking into finding some photoshop masters over the summer in order to go balls out on projects though.

And before the links, there was a small typo in the last chapter that isn't technically wrong, but if you noticed it here's the fixed version. Ok, now we can do links below:

Umisho - 79

Umisho 79, done! I translated one line as "gang leader type woman" and the actual Japanese states Female Banchou (Banchou is like the head delinquent/ gang leader of a school). Figured I'd put that here so that anyone familiar with the term will get a better understanding since the word banchou has some connotations that come with it.

Also, at present I will be replacing my Young Ace order with Gangan Joker. This means I can scanlate some of the missing Yandere Kanojo chapters when I get it as well as some other things (a series about Saten's ghost version possibly, can you guess what it is?)

Lastly, I am discontinuing the readme from this chapter onward (for now), but if you read the previous ones please read this one as it is different and contains information about why I'm stopping it for now. Anyway, links below:

P.S. I added a link to the mediafire folder with all my releases in it on the sidebar just below the pageview counter.

Umisho - 78

Here we go, chapter 78! I forgot to mention earlier that I have someone to clean NEET Princess Terrass for me now. It's shin, aka the guy cleaning/typesetting AtLS, and basically I'll release those chapters as I get them from him. Also, I'm leaning towards not buying young ace now (not for sure one way or another) but if anyone has some favorite series that's missing a volume or part of some current magazine post a comment about it because I need something to replace YA in my order if I decide to forgo it.

Carat - 4

Here it is, finally got a start on it. There's still one more chapter in volume 1 that I'm not in a big hurry to work on since I have nothing to work on after that for this series yet. Anyway, this series is actually pretty good despite only being 2 volumes. If you like Umisho you'll probably like this, it's basically a parody of typical magical girl type manga/anime. It has a similar style of comedy plus Kanon's reaction faces are god-tier; surpassed only by reaction faces in Yankee-kun to Megane-chan (which you should also be reading if you like these series). Also, I updated the readme (again) because more people that I thought read my releases. Ok that's enough of that, links incoming:

Umisho - 77

Again, no cover page (if you can even count the start of each chapter as a cover page in Umisho) because awesome 2 page spread. Scratch that, tribute to Brotonashi for being an awesome person.

Also I noticed that a mixed up an messed up version of page 28 in the last chapter. It was before I noticed I misread something and changed "Now then..." to "Sanae" (Kise's first name). So you can get that page if you want it here. I also made some comments about possible plans for Houzuki-san Chi no Aneki in response to some anon in my last post if you're interested. Links below:

Update 5/29 (1:37 PDT) - I was gonna release chapter 4 of Carat tonight but 30 or so pages took longer than I thought. Expect the release in roughly 10-12 hours after I sleep and do the last 5 pages.

Umisho - 76

So I normally just post the title page, but I figure DAT ASS was worthy of an exception.

Unrelated to this chapter, I'm looking for an editor to clean the pages for another project I want to do but don't have the time to do all the work right now. It's called NEET Princess Terrass and there are 4.5 chapters in the series that haven't had any work done on them in the last 2 months; each chapter is about 30 pages. Photoshop or a similar program is a requirement (ie. not MS Paint), and while I appreciate the thought please do not apply if you don't have at least a little experience editing. E-mail me if you're interested.

Oh also, thanks for voting in the poll, and I changed the last part of point 1 in the readme ever so slightly so check that out. I translated AtLS 36 and gave it to shin today too so hopefully you'll be seeing that in about a week, maybe less. Blogging ends here, links below:
