    Managing Director Shima Kōsaku - Vol. 8 Ch. 107 - These Foolish Things

    Most delays are sort of me feeling like working on it or not for the most part. Or maybe the next chapter being really difficult and me putting it off for a while. If for some reason I were super motivated we could probably finish like one or two volumes a month but life typically doesn't go...

    Managing Director Shima Kōsaku - Vol. 8 Ch. 107 - These Foolish Things

    Well that's cause it's not really the end of anything it's just the end of this part. The story keeps going and all the same characters are still around in the next part.

    Managing Director Shima Kōsaku - Vol. 6 Ch. 79 - Mack the Knife

    There's like a whole bunch of these and occasionally there's another company mentioned that's only in like one panel as where some guy is from. But these are the big ones (I think some of these haven't shown up yet): ソラー電機 Solar Electric (Based on Sony) 電報堂 Denpōdō (Based on Hakuhōdō) 東立...

    Managing Director Shima Kōsaku - Vol. 5 Ch. 65 - You Don't Have to Say You Love Me

    Yeah we're including the bunkoban covers at the end of the first volume that has any chapters in that bunkoban. The bunkobans don't have the same numebr of chapters as the volumes so they don't line up exactly. In this case the bunkoban has this chapter, chapter 65, and nothing else from volume...

    Managing Director Shima Kōsaku - Vol. 4 Ch. 52 - Let Me Go Lover

    Yeah when I was translating this volume and the last few I kept thinking about how they were making these various estimations about the future and how accurate they turned out to be, but also there's various problems like the aging societies and all that that both countries are dealing with. And...

    Managing Director Shima Kōsaku - Vol. 2 Ch. 14 - Proud Ones

    I figured I would try uploading these here and hope nothing bad happens even though they did takedowns of a bunch of our other series. Seemingly some groups are just continuing to post the stuff that wasn't taken down as usual, and I'll just hope nothing bad happens.

    Managing Director Shima Kōsaku - Vol. 1 Ch. 13 - Love Me Tonight

    Hey folks I'm no longer uploading here because of the various takedowns so it doesn't look safe to upload here now. But we're putting these on our site and on ComicK. We just released Managing Director volume 2. https://hiwamatanoboru.com/2025/07/26/managing-director-shima-kosaku-volume-2/

    Division Chief Shima Kōsaku - Vol. 13 Ch. 163 - Till the End of Time

    Yeah but then they keep bringing up wine again every once in a while. I think the author just likes wine a lot.

    Division Chief Shima Kōsaku - Vol. 13 Ch. 163 - Till the End of Time

    I don't really know much about what folks in Japan think of it. From the searches I did it seems to be mainly that people remember the Section Chief arc and you see references to it if they reference the story at all. And less so as it goes on, as probably fewer and fewer people read that far...

    Division Chief Shima Kōsaku - Vol. 13 Ch. 163 - Till the End of Time

    I think the author kinda thinks you can read it however you want. I'm not planning to work on any of the "Young Shima Kousaku" prequel things right now (That ran in Evening until 2018). I'm gonna just try to keep going with the main series that runs in Morning. If like years from now I feel like...

    Kokou no Hito - Vol. 17 Ch. 170 - Survivor

    I'm glad you liked it, folks! I'm super proud of this and it's definitely one of my favorite series. I really wanted to do this for years but didn't have time. In all it ended up taking around 7 months to redo the whole series from just my old scripts. I think I found all the mistakes and...

    Division Chief Shima Kōsaku - Vol. 10 Ch. 123 - My Happiness

    Apparently I'd accidentally uploaded chapter 122 twice and one of them was here. It should be fixed now.
