Hi,

sorry for the delay.

First and foremost- Thanks to those of you who donated to purchase the remaining Holyland volumes. They should be here by the end of the month, assuming everything goes well.

Second thing, we're always looking for new, skilled redrawers to help on some series. Right now the biggest delay in our series is the lack of Editors. If we had a skilled Editor, we'd probably be able to release Boku to Issho up to chapter 38 because all that needs to be done (minus the QC) is to finish the redraws. So if anyone's up to the challenge, apply on the forums!

An experienced QCer would be greatly appreciated as well.

Anyway, on to the releases.

Full Metal Panic Sigma 31 (!Sigma31 !FMPS31) - Final chapter of volume 7. We're officially out of translations again ;) So here's hoping we get translations for volume 8 soon!

Holyland 92 (!Holy92 !HL92) - This is the chapter a lot of you have been waiting for. Hope you enjoy it.

I Am A Hero Volume 01 (!Hero01 !IAm03) - This is a joint with Gantz_Waitingroom on the project. This has been a long time coming, and now that the ball's rolling, here's hoping volume 2 comes out in the near-future as well. By the way, give the series a chance past volume 1. Volume 1 is a lot of foreshadowing and conversation and has a nice ending to the volume. Volume 2 is an incredibly awesome volume. Haven't seen volume 3-4 yet, but I don't doubt that it's great. I'll be buying those when I get a paycheck.

Mephisto 22 (!Meph22 !Mep22) - The return of the EVIL MANGA after a hiatus that was over a year-long. Sorry about that. It was a combination of the editor (Nitouryu) always having something else to do and the translator (Molokidan) always having more important priorities. Finally, we started working on it not too long ago and we'll hopefully be having constant releases.

Rookies 182 (!Rook182 !Rookies182) - As usual, thanks to Deadbeat-Scans for their help on the project. Volume 19 is more than half done now!

That's all for today, enjoy.

I have to say. The Greeks sure do know what the hell they were doing when they created Tzaziki. This shit is fucking awesome. Like damn man, this stuff is so damn good.

Anyway, like the last post said, I'm looking for a Koukou Tekken-den Tough editor.

I'm also broke and hoping to get some donations to buy some new Holyland volumes. If you can donate an amount to help me buy volumes, I'd appreciate it. My paypal account is gaminggodp at gmail dot com

Big thanks to all of you willing to help me out.

And now, the releases.

Additional triggers:

!Jackals05

Enjoy, have a good one.

PS. I sorta fucked up and deleted the last 20-some news posts. My apologies Take your thanks and previous conversations to the forums!

Nitouryu note: Hurray for old backups! Now you have only deleted 11 news posts. YOU MONSTER! All those "thank you" and hearth warming comments gone to nothingness~~~~

Today..
today I had this completely normal dream where I was trapped in a room with Machete, Ip man, Marcus Fenix, Riddick, some guy with samurai swords and a random girl. So we are all in this room, it's somewhere around 10x15m big, with a single window and a wooden box in the corner.
I look out the window and I see that we are on 4-6th floor, dusk is approaching. There are no doors, I start to get this creepy feeling, not sure if it's from the overwhelming testosterone in the room or from the box in the darkest corner of the room.
Next thing I know, Fenix kicks open box while screaming "Fuck you box!" As top of the box slides open, a "thing" crawls out, something like a centipede(size of an arm). Next thing I know, the Thing melts into floor and Machetes legs are being eaten away into floor, while the only bitch screams "we are all going to die" and jumps out of the window..
... -_-
Eh fuck it~~~~, it was a long dream and I don't feel like writing out all the events. So after an epic extermination battle me and Riddick got out alive from the burning room, as I went home thinking how fucking scary it was, I see a kid riding bicycle, we are in the middle of abandoned land route(was quickest way to my home, I guess). As he turns towards me, I notice that his face is crumbly and white like a paper and there are black holes in places of eyes. "That fire hurt me, mister. Now you have to run." - he said.

So, releases:
Boku to Issho 29 (!Boku29) - Gonna go solo from this point onwards. As it has a handful of fonts, we really need a Typesetter with a good common sense to keep releasing.

Holyland 85 (!Holy85) - This is the last release from our short release spree. We don't have anymore translations. JP-EN translators where art thou?

Idiot Chief 09-10 (!Idiot09 !Idiot10) - I love my Wintows 7. We will continue series when Molokidan(translator) has some free time do more chapters.

Hay!

A lone Holyland 84 (!Holy84) is released.
And it's hot as balls this week in Europe. So after you have read this chapter we shall go to beach, chill and make some babies on the hot sand. Deal?

Also,
I'm riding a unicorn, your arguments about slow releases are invalid.

Well that was fast.

As usual, if you want to increase the release speed, please apply. We can teach you assuming you aren't brain-dead. Experienced is always prefered, but not necessary. Requires Photoshop.

Holyland 83 (!Holy83) - We could always use an additional Japanese -> English translator for the series (We have scripts until ch85, then a gap until ch90 & 91).

Sidonia 08 (!Sido8) Funny enough, someone (Kunde) offered to help with the project and a few days later we have a release and chapter 9 is being worked on. That's usually how it works. Offer to help out and maybe you'll actually get to see the releases faster.

That's all for today.

Short and sweet today.

Holyland 82 (!Holy82) is released. We're always looking for an additional Japanese -> English translator to increase the translation speed and some skilled editors to help the current cleaners.

Enjoy.

So our last release was on Quebec's "national" birthday (lol, sure...) and today our release is on America's nartional birthday. It was originally supposed to be on July 1st, Canada's birthday, because in the words of Felix DeSouza: Fuck the Yank, let 'im wait!

If you get the reference, then awesome. If you don't, relax, he's a fictional character.

So as usual, he's our usual plea for more recruits. We're looking for more Editors to increase the release speed. If we could get an additional experienced QCer to ease Kuthrow's workload, that would be ideal. Also we need a dedicated Holyland translator (jp-en). If you want to help us out, please apply on the forums or contact us on IRC.

Now, the releases.

Blame Gakuen! And So On (!Blame or !Gakuen) - This is a long time coming. I'd like to appologize to Luco, who bought & scanned this volume last summer, for taking so long to complete this volume. But finally, it's done. (Hey, oz bastard, if you're reading this, quit life and come back to scanlations. ;) ) Big thank you to illiteracy for finishing the volume. As for Sidonia... Well... I don't know when exactly I'll get to chapter, although I'll probably get to it sooner rather than later. Here's my problem, I don't have the raws for ch9+. I always assumed Luco would have them, but he didn't either and now he's MIA. So, yeah. Contact me if you have the raws.

Full Metal Panic Sigma 26 (!Sigma26) -  This chapter concludes the current arc of FMP Sigma. The next chapter of this volume is a boring flashback about how Mithril was made and stuff. But once that's done, volume 07 starts off with new characters, new stories, new action, new bust shots (Yes!!!) and much more. So hopefully it won't take us too long to get right into it.

Holyland 77-81 (!Holy77 - !Holy81) - This concludes volume 08 and starts volume 09. I hope you enjoy these chapters.

Idiot Section Chief 7-8 (!Idiot07 - !Idiot08) - Two more chapters of our second favorite gag manga.

Shonan Jun'ai Gumi 91 (!SJG91) - This is a stand-alone chapter. Next chapter begins the great Midnight Angels arc.

That's all for today, enjoy.

Today is the single worst day of the year for someone like me; someone who lives in Quebec but isn't brainwashed with the whole 'Quebec should be it's own country because we're selfish pricks and sharing something with other people is blasphemous and besides WE WERE HERE FIRST' bullshit. Tell that to the Indians you stick in a village and give them their own laws so that they feel empowered.

So as I was saying, fuck Quebec and fuck La Saint-Jean Baptiste.

Now that that's done, we have some releases today!

Same thing as always, we need some staff to increase the release speed. If you can help, apply on the forums.

I'll also be starting to work on an Typesetting guide over the summer. I honestly don't like the majority of the guides out there, so I figured I'd do my own. I want to have it done for the end of July, but who knows how long it'll really take.

Now, the releases.

Full Metal Panic 25 (!Sigma25) - Newest chapter of FMP Sigma. Here's hoping we can finish volume 6 soon!

Garouden 01 (!Garou01) - A new series from us. The artist is Taniguchi Jiro, who is fucking awesome btw. This is Ruroni's project, and since he's a busy man with a new job and his first born a month ago, the releases will be sporadic.

Jackals Volume 04 (!Jack04) - The newest volume of Jackals, including chapters 24-31. Our first release of Jackals since Strays disbanded. By the way, in this volume, shit starts to get serious. If you enjoy lots of violence, lots of blood, a major plot twist or two, etc. in your manga, you're going to really enjoy v5-7.

My Street 07 (!Ms07) - Our first chapter of this in... Wow, a really long time. So yeah, ch07. Hopefully ch08 will be out sooner. .-.;;;; Thanks as usual to our joint partners in the Rabbit-Reich for their part in the joint.

Shonan Jun'ai Gumi (!SJG88 !SJG89 !SJG90) - This concludes the current arc of SJG and starts volume 11. Chapter 91 is a stand-alone chapter while chapter 92 starts one of the best arcs in the series. Just an awesome, awesome arc. So, stay tuned!

Trigun Badlands Rumble (!Trigun01 !Trigun02) - Here's the two-part Trigun oneshot from Young King Ours. We're still looking for Boichi's Trigun oneshot, which was also in Young King Ours. If you find it somewhere or can scan it, contact us and we'll do the chapter.

So yeah, that's all for today.

Enjoy.
