    Fire!

    Finally, Fire has been licensed in English. I will still update the first half as planned, and I will also translate any essays and commentaries from other editions. And, should the Rolling Stones one-shot in volume 2 not get translated, I will do that as well. Also, if the publisher goes under...

    Umibe no Cain - Vol. 1 Ch. 5.1 - Afterword (Yumiko Yanagisawa-Jansson, 1998)

    Thank you, that means a lot!! 😭 I keep as close to the original dialogue as possible, as I think a mangaka's writing style is very, very important. And Kimura-sensei has pretty straightforward and plain dialogue overall, though she can also be quite lyrical and poetic ❤ Overall, I just wanted...

    As much as I hate the Vertical release, that is the current way to read it in print. For Tezuka manga afterword TLs, those are for the ones that did not get them translated in their English releases, and that was all I intended to TL for those works (I never meant to do the main works proper).

    Gazing at the Azure - Oneshot

    @rustbird No problem :) I was thinking about including that in my comments initially but felt that'd be forcing my own opinion on the work - I want it to speak for itself. Something with a similar duality can be found in Nanae Sasaya's A Silent Morning. June in its early days had a decent...

    Gazing at the Azure - Oneshot

    This was in the proto-BL magazine June, and while Yashiro herself was never part of the proto-BL/June sphere, she was very well aware of the magazine's target demographic. The work is deliberately structured to have different readings depending on who goes through it; the general public can view...

    That timeframe, yes :) There is some things I need to take care of on my personal end first but that's right. Also alongside it I will be starting Cain of the Beach so do look forward to that =)

    Umibe no Cain

    Finally, after many delays, I've begun translating this. I'm sorry for the wait, everyone, but do look forward to chapters of this soonish.

    Kirin

    I was referring to the mangaka Shohei Harumoto, not the scanlator. He passed away around that time.

    5MENP

    roughly 2 volumes worth left, about ~30 or so. Luckily for everyone I'll be tweaking up the first half next month, and then I'll begin translating the second 👍

    I don't think a single pick of yours misses, you have my respects!

    Officially on hiatus for a bit after recent upload. Expect a return to DD (and some highly requested titles like Cain of the Beach) when I get back, but for now, see ya later!
