Zankyou Volume 1

Posted on by

Hey everybody. Who’s up for something dark and depressing? I sure hope you are.

Here’s the first volume of a project I’ve been wanting to do for a while now called Zankyou, meaning “Reverberation”.
It’s by Takahashi Tsutomu, an author known for his gritty dark art style with heavy use of pen-brush and macabre themes (Though some of his stuff is kinda lighthearted). He’s done a pretty large number of series over the years. Generally they’re all stories meant to be not too long, usually 7 volumes or less. But he’s done a lot. He’s mostly well known for the Skyhigh series, Jiraishin, and Sidooh.
One of his series, I translated a few years back called Hito Hitori Futari, which was scanlated by Illuminati-Manga. Which I also recommend. Though this series is a lot more grim.

Zankyou is pretty light on text and it’s only 3 volumes long (It ran in Big Comic Superior from 2015-2016), so I don’t expect this to be a big project. I’ve wanted to do it for a while but only had time recently.
It’s worth it to jump into it without knowing too much. But it is aimed at adults. It’s an existentialist kind of story about a young man trying to change the path he’s on.

This is the first volume, and hopefully the other 2 won’t take too long. I was gonna do it all myself but thanks a bunch to Bracketier, Huldra, and JoeAbandonedMine for volunteering to help out with it.

Seikimatsu Leader Den Takeshi! Ch. 19

Here’s chapter 19 of Takeshi! Here’s the intro I wrote about the series if you haven’t seen it yet.

Hey everybody, check out the new Takeshi chapter, it’s a pretty fun one.
Sorry these have been coming out so infrequently. I’ve had a bunch of real-life stuff to deal with the last 2 months on top of getting Innocent done and working on 81diver to push towards the end of that.
We should have some cool new stuff coming out soon I think some people might totally like maybe?!

Okay, it took a lot longer than I wanted it to, but we’re finally all done with Innocent Rouge Volume 7!
In this volume we at long last get into the real thick of the French Revolution and some of the major historical events happen. Though remember the story is mostly about the revolution from the perspective of the Sanson family, less so than the revolution itself.
I hope you all enjoy. Next volume is set to come out “Spring 2018” so we’ll see you again around then.

81diver Volume 22

Okay, it’s been a couple months since the last 81diver volume, but here we are with this one, V22. A couple more of the battles of the big huge tournament that’s going on are in this volume.
I’m trying to finish translating the series sometime soon so I can start working on something else while high8sky makes her way through the rest of the series. I’ll probably help clean/typeset a bit too.
We’re finishing up Innocent Rouge V7 so expect that done sometime in the near future. Hopefully I’ll have time to get more Takeshi done soon too.

JoJolion Volume 17 (Ch67-70)

Check out The Book! It’s a really great novel we released recently that’s a sequel to Part 4 of Jojo’s Bizarre Adventure!

So, in case anyone forgot, there’s no new JoJolion chapter this month (January 2018). Next chapter will be next month around the same time as usual. But in the meantime we managed to get volume 17 all done, and now we’re caught up with the latest volumes again! Yay! This one contains pretty much the whole Urban Guerrilla arc.

The next volume is set to come out in Summer 2018, so we’ve got a while. We’re planning on working on volume 14 next, and working backwards until the next new volume comes out.
Okay, enjoy!

And here we are at 667. We could be getting to the end pretty soon, we’ll see.

Innocent’s still being worked on. Lots of redraws is making it take a while.

We’re in the process of switching to Mangadex as the reader we upload stuff to. It’s a new site that seems like a good alternative to Batoto, which is shutting down. It gives good tools to scanlators to be able to upload and manage their releases. The guys building it are working on getting all the various features working, so it’s still pretty new. It looks good so far. Hopefully they’re able maintain the site in the long run.

We made it to the spooky number 666!

This week we got a bit delayed because of issues with raws. We ended up using the digital raws for this chapter that come out on Sunday, rather than the physical raws we usually use. Should be back to normal next week.

Still working on Innocent. Hopefully that gets done soon. The next HQ JoJolion volume should be done pretty soon too. Reminder, there’s no new chapter this month.

Right now I’m in the process of getting the remainder of 81diver done. Getting a little done whenever I have time. I’ve got about 95 chapters left. I’m hoping we can get the rest of the series out this year, maybe. And then I’ll have time to try some new project.
