  • One and Only

    Somehow it’s been three years since I released the first story in this collection of one shots. I don’t know how that happened. Anyway, this one is long (90 pages!) so I guess that’s my excuse. :p Title: Tensei (Splendid) Original Title: 天晴 (Tensei) Author: Kawahara Kazune Publisher: Margaret Comics Genre: Shoujo Status in Japan:…

  • Schoolgirl Princess

  • Wind Singer

    Today I have some more vintage shoujo manga by Yoshida Akimi for you. This collection of one-shots was begun by HotCakes, but their translator dropped out after one story, so I’ll be continuing it with them. The first story, At Summer’s End, can be found on their site. There are seven stories total, and since…

  • Me-Bug

    A while back, we posted a couple Nishioka Kyodai one-shots taken from magazines, including the title story from this collection. If you liked that story, or indeed, anything else by Nishioka Kyodai, I highly recommend checking this out.

  • Nishioka Kyodai one-shots

    These are a couple of very short one-shots by the brother-and-sister duo Nishioka Kyodai. Back in the day, I translated a collection of one-shots (Sadness of the Heart) as well as a single-volume series (God’s Child) with Kotonoha, and having recently recovered those scanlations, I’ve reposted them on my site, if you haven’t read them…

  • Tensei

    While Kidu and I are still figuring out what we want to do next, I’m happy to announce a new collaborator, NightSwan of HotCakes. I’m going to be doing some translation work for them (I’ll make an announcement here when it’s posted) and they’re doing some cleaning and typesetting for me! As some of you…

  • I’ll Always Be Here

    As some of you may remember, several years ago I was working on a collaboration with Occasional Amateur Scanlations to put out some old Kawahara Kazune one-shots. I had the translations done a long time ago, but life interfered and they never got beyond the script stage. But today I got a suprise email from…

  • The Opposite of Love Is Hate

    Story 4: The Opposite of Love Is Hate The proud tsundere Matsuda has been in love with happy-go-lucky Tsumura for ages, but she just can’t tell him. Aggressiveness is her heart’s only defence when she’s near him – after all: “The Opposite of Love is Hate”. Tsumura has never minded before, so what will happen…

  • A Million Words
