A very small update- chapters 5 and 13 each have a new page, taken from a reprint of Microid S that includes cut pages and bonus art.

@Jonmorina https://mega.nz/folder/rsQThYbB#m_EYtykLiZ8ZFEtdy9d7aA Does this work?

This is it! The very end! This is both the first manga translation I've done, and the longest project I've ever worked on. Looking at the timestamps, it took a full year to translate everything. Since when has my ADHD ass spent an entire year doing one thing? The first few chapters I still...

@nutjob Can't it go either way? Wouldn't really call it a typo.

@ShauniHirasawa I think I will translate Futureman Kaos... the characters look very interesting to me. I'm also translating Monsters on the 38th Parallel right now, but I'm being very casual on that and focusing on Microid S so it's taking longer.

Some more info now that I've translated the second chapter... I'm using google translate and jisho . org to translate this (and some help from people who know Japanese better than I do for some more difficult parts) and while certain bits may not be 100% accurate I'm hoping to make Tezuka stuff...
