- More bad news: I had to fix two translation glitches in earlier volumes. 1) Vol1 Ch01 pg13: Photobucket
2) Vol3 Ch12 pg40: Photobucket
I've also reuploaded a Vol1 ver3 zip AND a Vol3 ver3 zip with the fixed pages. Sorry for the inconvenience.

How do you read scanlations of a multi-chapter manga?

Read each chapter as it's released

Wait until a few chapters are released, then start reading

Wait until the entire book/series is released, then start reading

If you are working, thinking about working, or know of a group working on any of the titles mentioned here, please notify me.

Raw or Half-Baked? These English translations are 'half-baked' because they are pieced together from Japanese using dictionaries, grammar guides and kanji guides. An attempt is made to Americanize the spelling because the majority of readers seem more familiar with it. Sad but true.

Note: I am willing to remove scanlation links upon request in order to respect the wishes of the artists responsible for these works. If you are the artist of any of these works OR happen to know of the artists' strong disapproval of scanlations, please contact me.
