More delicious thighs.

Blame any and all delays, perceived or otherwise, on people in polyester jerseys running around with their stupid ball on the field interrupting the wonderful cacophony of a vuvuzela concert.

saru is the man.

As previously stated, my new release policy is that I'm not liable ever.

China Girl v1c1
Version 2

I hate redraws.

Translation and proofing were done by Shinnen around two thousand years ago and it took me just about that long to do just about none of the redraws. Thanks to RaE666 for popping by and offering up redrawing help; definitely needed it this time around. Oh, and thanks to Macurai of Itadakimasu~ for uploading to my bot. Kiririn was being quite tsuntsun today.

New release rules, folks. Upload anywhere, everywhere, whatever. I simply don't care. However, if this series gets licenced, I expect it to be all taken down, and I cannot be held liable for any releases floating around the internet that were not specifically my doing. Only two sanctioned sites are my DDL link and the RO at MangaToshokan; all others have absolutely nothing to do with me.

EDIT: Well, that's embarrassing. I'd originally thought the mangaka had simply gotten his world population math wrong, but apparently my translator did. It's been fixed and a v2 is now up. DDLs are up as well.

Wa! v1c5



Wa! v1c5
IRC | DDL

Oh my gah! It's Wa!

The delay between c5 and c4 is largely my fault =_=" so I'd like to apologize... Weroth had Real LifeTM obligations to take care of, so he was unable to continue translating. After that, I floated around for a month translator-less, until Aku from #translators agreed to translate it. He got around halfway before he had to stop, so Macurai of Itadakimasu~ and delacroix01 picked up the slack. Long story short, translator woes.

I believe I'll have a relatively consistent translator from Wa! for here on out, so hopefully releases will be more frequent. No promises though...

Release rules, blah blah blah, IRC blah blah first 12 hours. Blah blah DDL blah blah read online at MangaToshokan blah blah. Blah blah refrain from uploading this to any other read-online resource for 48 hours blah blah.

EDIT: God I'm a failure; p14 added to the archive. DDL up as an apology.

Honoka Lv. Up! v1c1


Honoka Lv. Up! v1c1:
The First Chance
IRC | DDL

Fun times to be had: I present to you Honoka Lv. Up!, a cute story about an aspiring artist who joins the video game industry. Formerly scanlated by Ala-Atra, they apparently dropped this series when they found they didn't have enough editors. This took a bit of time to edit for me; I obtained superior raws (donate, donate please~) and spent a good bit of time playing with leveling, so that means releases for this series will not be quick, even though translations up to c5 are available.

As per usual, this will be available exclusively on IRC on Kirino-chan for approximately the first 12 hours. DDL will be up after that period, as will read online at MangaToshokan. Of course, please refrain from uploading this to any other read-online resource for 48 hours.

Peony Pavilion v1c1


Peony Pavilion v1c1:
Peony Pavilion
IRC | DDL

I am excessively proud to present to you Peony Pavilion, a Chinese manhua by the artist 夏达 (Xia Da) based on ancient Chinese poetry. Lots of people I need to thank for the success of this project: first to Kaens and Yuu from #translators / #tl for introducing this manhua to me. blazing_ice of Shinnen did an absolutely astounding job translating this, managing to retain a great deal of the original poetry (though the rhyme and meter are unfortunately lost). Of course, I have to thank all the various people I kidnapped to TL check this, like my good friend Flyer and other assorted people who didn't want to be mentioned (not you, Yuu). The scans are beautiful, as is the typesetting (Chara~). It's quite unfortunate that there were several mistakes in printing, since they detract from the art itself. I've done my best to clean out these errors, but some may remain (and I truthfully couldn't do anything about them). And of course, 谢谢,夏达。 你的画真太漂亮了。

This will be available exclusively on IRC in #pure and in #shinnen for the first bit. DDL will be up in around 12 hours, as will read online at MangaToshokan. As per the last release, please refrain from uploading this to any other read-online resource for 48 hours.

And here I was hoping I'd release Wa! before this, but I guess not. Disappointing...

Anyway, Ore's story is finally picking up. I personally found this chapter quite cute and funny.

Please take a look at Zombie Romanticism below and look forward to newcomers Peony Pavilion, Honoka Lv. Up!, and China Girl, all of which will be released some time in the future! I swear at least one of these will be released in a timely fashion (i.e. in the next month)...

You can download by popping into my IRC channel, saying hello, and grabbing it from Kirino-chan. Alternately, you can use the "non-profit download resource," Rapidshare screw that, DDL up. Read online at MangaToshokan will appear in 12 hours is up. Please refrain from uploading this to any other read-online resource for 48 hours.

Zombie Romanticism v1c1


Zombie Romanticism v1c1

What is this? Another zombie manga?! Seems to be the new in thing to do for mangakas these days... At least it's better than vampires.

xXKyoXx has graciously given me an IRC bot to play with (kyaa~ I'll name her Kirino-chan and all that). What does this mean? There's now a bot on IRC where you can download any Pure release. Pop by and say hi to me, and grab stuff from the bot.

Anyway, this manga is awesome. This project is the child of Macurai (of Itadakimasu~) so please, any and all credit should go to him directly. I've really got nothing further to say, so go to Itadakimasu~'s site and enjoy!

Yes, yes, this is available on my lovely Kirino-chan as well, but why would you molest her when you can grab it in Macurai's channel? You can have a conversation with awesomeness-incarnate at the same time!
