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.

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!

Well, well, well. I didn't release at 4:30am in the morning for me. A few notes then, while I'm still semi-coherent.

I am not stealing this project; it was mine to begin with. Doragon was slow and useless for typesetting and redrawing so I gave up on him. Future releases may or may not include DBR depending on Doragon's ability to be useful in a timely manner. 

Massive amounts of thanks go to both Chara and MrEngenious who were decidedly more useful than Doragon. Which really isn't saying much, but still.

Wa! is coming up next.

Ah, finally a release! I've been sick these last few weeks, so I've gotten little to no cleaning / editing done whatsoever. However, I will get right to it (yay, spring break) so you can expect some releases in the near future. In the meantime, enjoy this cute oneshot. Please use DepositFiles to download if possible so I can attempt to recoup the losses incurred when I bought tank raws (or better yet, donate~).

For anybody who cares, I've chosen a different palette of fonts this time around. I'm trying to improve my typesetting, so comments (especially critiques) are definitely welcome.

Apologies for the absurd delay that this release experienced. The delay is, once again, wholly Doragon's fault. I will concede, however, that his QC improved the quality dramatically; I'm suffering from a minor bout of sickness.

Next chapter may be delayed as well; our translator is moving and starting a new job, so wish her luck!

BLAZE might possibly be the most unscanlatable series that I have ever worked with. Redraws every other page, doubles all over the place, and 46 page chapters. Absolutely ridiculous.

Why is this here? Because in some moment of brilliance, I decided to clean this for Shinnen. And this seriously took around two-four months to clean. Please enjoy my efforts.

And no, I will no be cleaning any more of this. I'm quite done with this, thank you...

Enough of my ranting. Enjoy.
