    Tasogare no Utsuwagami

    More or less. I would agree it's not at world-class level or anything - his art can be a little bit too scratchy and half-done at times (poorly-judged angles, missing details, that sort of thing). But there's still something about it that really caught my attention inside a few pages of Chapter...

    Mii-chan and Yamada-san - Ch. 5.2

    Pretty sure all the flashbacks are to Mii-chan, given the end of the first chapter makes it very clear that it happened and it's referred to multiple times after that - I don't think there's supposed to be any suspense about who it happened to, just Yamada's guilt as she wonders if she could...

    Mii-chan and Yamada-san

    I would guess that it's less literally "can't sit still" and more a sign of "poor motor control". Plus I'm pretty sure that scene is meant to show it's just one thing along with "doesn't understand commonly accepted social cues" - "doesn't know where to look", "doesn't understand how to respond...

    Hitohitogami Nichinichi - Ch. 1 - The ordinary gods of Mt. Mitsukado

    Just to confirm I am still going with this atm; working on Ch. 2, but it still needs a lot of redrawing (if nothing like as complex as the spice merchant, thank Christ) and I'm just one guy who's already trying to do way too many series at once. <_< I'll try not to let it take too long (I really...

    Mii-chan and Yamada-san - Ch. 4.2

    Yeah, that's one of the "...oh, so it's still very much happening now" links I saw, FWIW. Others pinned it on e.g. Japan's own rising cost of living problem, and the growth in sex tourism (some news sites were claiming Japan's seeing an upswing) turning it into a vicious cycle.

    Mii-chan and Yamada-san - Ch. 5.2

    I think part of the point of the series is that she probably did (she mentions having tried a bunch of other jobs in Chapter 1, for example), but that everybody she ever ran into either didn't know how to make the case that she she should choose that other thing, couldn't be bothered to make the...

    Tokubetsu na Chuutohanpa - Ch. 49 - Last minute.

    Thanks! Not sure when I'll get round to it - I will have free time over Christmas but I'll still need to do family stuff etc. as well - but I appreciate the heads up.

    Tasogare no Utsuwagami - Ch. 3.1 - The Vessel God on Firewind Hill

    Well, there's your firebreathing! Just about got 3.2 done, so you should get that over Christmas too, hopefully.

    Mii-chan and Yamada-san - Ch. 5.2

    Well at least that's a happy ending of sorts for... someone. Oh, and also it should have been "Muu", two Us. Apologies, can't believe I didn't work that one out for 5.1.

    Tokubetsu na Chuutohanpa - Ch. 49 - Last minute.

    Welp, there you go. Rushed it a little bit, there were a couple of redraws I could have taken some more time over, but hopefully it's still okay. I'll probably keep going with any more unless anyone else steps in, but I don't check Pixiv that much, so it'll depend on exactly when Dosukoi...

    Tokubetsu na Chuutohanpa - Ch. 48 - Hollow victory.

    #49 pretty much done, FWIW, so I'll sit on it to make sure I'm happy with it and then stick it up along with my other uploads tomorrow. Not to get anybody's hopes up too high :) but just to confirm I haven't forgotten/given up on it just yet. (I admit I partly just want the very slight kick of...

    Hitohitogami Nichinichi - Ch. 1 - The ordinary gods of Mt. Mitsukado

    It is darker than a lot of Ghibli, just FYI. It doesn't drop the coziness entirely by any means - there's still gentle humour and "Wow, look at this cool thing" in later chapters - but there's absolutely action and more of the moderately grim violence as well (Ishi carving up the "aberration" is...

    Hitohitogami Nichinichi - Ch. 1 - The ordinary gods of Mt. Mitsukado

    Right, was anyone sitting on this? Eh. if you were, you were, I guess. Anyway, this was a pretty challenging one for someone who needs a robot buddy to do any of this stuff, but hopefully I didn't get anything too badly wrong. Feel free to let me know if the weird fonts are too much or if there...

    Tasogare no Utsuwagami - Ch. 2.2

    Bet you weren't expecting it to turn into a found family setup, eh? Eh? ...if the lack of action is bothering anyone, it stays surprisingly wordy, but with the next chapter it's the other way around again (mostly talk-y half first, more fight-y half second). I like the dialogue, personally, but...

    Mii-chan and Yamada-san - Ch. 5.1 - Mii-chan's friend

    Yeah, I like this series (despite how bleak it can be) and I am still enjoying attemping to translate it (however half-assed my attempts might be), but I read "She's kind of similar to you" and inwardly I was all GEE, I'D NEVER HAVE NOTICED OTHERWISE, YAMADA <_<

    Tokubetsu na Chuutohanpa - Ch. 48 - Hollow victory.

    Not going to have 49 up today (06/12), I'm afraid, since I spent most of the past week and a bit in and out of hospital and recovering, I've only just started back up with my half-assed scanlations and this series is no longer my first priority. I will still keep going, if nobody else steps in...

    Tasogare no Utsuwagami - Ch. 2.1 - Rain Turns the Ground to Mud

    Fair enough, good to have someone give an opinion one way or the other. (y) And yeah, this part finishes right at the start of the conversation and 2.2 picks up on the same beat. FWIW it does not go the "suggestive" route with any of that, more like... sort of a very brief detour into almost...

    Mii-chan and Yamada-san - Ch. 4.2

    Let's quote it again, if it helps: and (If you've played any of the earlier Yakuza games, this place is in there - AFAIK the big cinema in Kamurocho is basically almost directly drawn from how Toho Cinemas used to look.) This is direct MTL from the interview she did with Japanese MSN, before...

    Tasogare no Utsuwagami - Ch. 2.1 - Rain Turns the Ground to Mud

    There you go, some actual fighting. Also, hope you like wacky fonts! ...no, seriously, if anyone's reading this who thinks they're too much, by all means let me know. I was tempted to go back and tweak them a bunch of times (also I'd have liked to improve one especially horrible redraw <_< ...

    Tokubetsu na Chuutohanpa - Ch. 48 - Hollow victory.

    Surprisingly wordy for a quick six-pager, with a fair few annoying minor redraws. Rushed it a bit, maybe - hopefully it's not too much of a problem for anyone - but I have to go into hospital tomorrow and wanted this out of the way beforehand.
