Hey, so here’s chapter 10. With this, we finished off volume 2. I really liked this chapter, it’s got some interesting insight into the psychology of some of the characters.
I’ve got a couple more translated and we’re hoping to have those chapters finished soon if we can.

Ok, this one went more smoothly.
There’s just one more chapter after this left in volume 2. I’m working on translating volume 3 now.
Volume 4 is the newest one but there’s enough chapters that’ve run in Feel Young for volume 5 and maybe 6 now, so v5 probably will be out by the time we get to v4.
Edit: The wrong color page got put in here somehow. Dunno how that happened. Anyhow it’s fixed now and the links are updated.

Here’s chapter 8 y’all.
Ok so with a lot of stuff calmed down I should have more time to work on this series. I’m hoping we can get Gintama V77 done soon, but it’s pretty long. Kago is working on cleaning the 2nd half now. And we’re hoping to get the next Jojolion volume done soon too.

Ok, so, here we are with chapter 7.
I’m sorry these are taking a while to come out. There’s still 15 or so chapters we still need to release to catch up. Me and Huldra have had a lot going on recently that’s taken up a lot of our time. I’ve got a few more translated and I’m gonna try to help out with typesetting as time permits.
Meanwhile, we’re trying to get more Jojolion volumes, Takeshi chapters, and the last volume of Gintama done. Plus new 3-Gatsu no Lion chapters as they come out. So it’s a little switching back and forth between new stuff and old stuff.
Also the next Neko ga Nishi Mukya chapter is almost done so that should be out sometime soon.
Enjoy everybody! This series keeps getting better as it goes on and the characters get built up.

Ok, and now we’re on to volume 2! I’m hoping to get more of these out soon.
Meanwhile I’m also working on helping with more Jojolion volumes and Takeshi chapters.

Ok, and so here we have chapter 5. This one finishes off volume 1! Yay.
Sorry there’s been such a long gap between chapters. I’ve been busy with Innocent and finishing the last old volume of Gintama we’re doing. Huldra’s had some IRL stuff that’s taking up all her time so she hasn’t had much time for this. I’ve got a couple more chapters translated and once Gintama and Jojolion and Neko get done over the course of the next week and a half, I should have plenty of time to focus on this. The whole series is only 22 chapters long so we SHOULD be able to catch up once I’ve got all that other stuff out of the way.
Anyhow, this chapter’s a good one, I hope you all check it out. Share this series with others if you like it.
I also made a single zip for all of volume 1.

Whew, and here’s chapter 4.
Sorry these are taking a while to come out. Huldra’s been busy with a lot of stuff going on in her life. I’m trying to get later chapters translated as time permits between Innocent, Gintama, 3-Gatsu no Lion, JoJolion, and Neko ga Nishi Mukya. Anyhow we hope to have more done soon. The next chapter finishes off volume 1. Also volume 4 just came out in Japan. And the series has 21 chapters total right now, if you’re wondering.
Oh by the way, there was a cover color page that was meant to be in chapter 3 that we forgot about. I put it in the end of this chapter. When we release this as a single-volume download later I’ll put it in the beginning of chapter 3 like it was meant to.

Here’s chapter 3! We’re getting a bit more into the story now.
I’m finishing up Gintama V34 now. Just need to typeset the 2nd half.
Jojolion comes out in a few days, 3-Gatsu is in the next issue of Young Animal, and the next volume of Innocent comes out in late May. So there’s plenty going on. We’re trying to finish up Jojolion V19 as well.

Ok, here’s chapter 2!
I’ve had a lot of IRL stuff going on and I’m trying to get Gintama volume 34 done which is a huge project. But basically we’ll be getting more of this series done as we have time and we’ll try to get them out regularly. Honestly I need to sort of balance scanlating with the rest of my life better than I have been for a while now that we finished all those other projects/series we’ve done recently (Course Gintama still isn’t done). Volume 4 is coming out in Japan next month. We still dunno when the next Gintama chapter is coming out but apparently they’re gonna announce it in the app at some point “soon”. We’re working on finishing up Jojolion V19. And the next 3-Gatsu chapter should be done soon. We’re also gonna try to scanlate the volume version of Neko ga Nishi Mukya at some point in the near future.
This chapter starts to lay more of the plot out and give you more of an idea of what this series is like. I really like it and I hope you all enjoy.

Hey, so here’s the new series we’re doing next, Ikoku Nikki. The title means “Different Country Diary” and the name is based on a book about diplomacy from the Edo period. Though this uses a different kanji for the word “different” for some reason (Explicitly not the usual one meaning ‘Foreign Country’). The official English title found on the cover and title pages is “Journal with witch” but, well besides the grammatical error that’s not what the Japanese title means.
Anyhow, this series is a josei manga running in Feel Young magazine. It’s received a lot of praise recently, and it was nominated for the 2019 Manga Taisho award and the Kono Manga ga Sugoi! 2019 award. It’s by Yamashita Tomoko who’s written… like a whole ton of other manga. I think the most well known is this one BUTTER!!!! and maybe this one Don’t Cry, Girl (Though I haven’t read either of those). Regardless, I’ve been reading this manga and I really like it so far. It’s about a 15 year old girl whose parents have died and her life living with this 35 year old woman author and kind of what it’s like with those two different worlds colliding. It’s in the same vein of manga as 3-Gatsu no Lion, IMO. Anyhow, it’s ongoing monthly manga and right now there are 3 volumes published and the newest chapter is chapter 18 I believe. We don’t have a set schedule for this, and we have various other projects going on, but we’re hoping to get more out soon. Hope you enjoy, everyone!
