@BitterJames you can have that opinion about font variety, but I strongly disagree. Especially if people want accuracy to what Araki intended. Dogpark's font choices omit tons of the nuance that was present in the original text in that regard. Sound effects are part of the storytelling. They...

@BitterJames I don't think Dogpark deserves criticism for the image quality of his releases. that's just fine. But that has nothing to do with translation. I do think it is valid to criticize the editing. The lettering leaves a lot to be desired. There is a severe lack of font variety. There...

@BitterJames Hey there! I can clarify what we do with the images for the HWMN release. The digital raws are 1200px tall. We use an upscaler to increase that size to 1400px tall. There are a few reasons for this: The readability of text on the page is better with a larger base image. While it's...

@dogpark Glad to help.

The Hi Wa Mata Noboru version of chapter 100 is being worked on and coming along nicely. I promise that we will actually join the spread pages and translate the sound effects.

In case anyone is wondering, the Hi Wa Mata Noboru version is being worked on and coming along nicely. We are actually joining all of the spreads and translating sound effects.

@seltor yep, I totally get you. It's all entertainment. We don't need any of it, so it's good to just enjoy it when it happens. My comment was geared towards people who refuse to read it in black and white while also complaining to the team I work with that we should work faster on something...

@thefountain no clue! JoJolion volumes 1 and 2 launched in color in December 2015. Since then they have released in batches of one to five volumes at once, with no consistent schedule whatsoever. I assume that one or two volumes will be released in 2020, but I have no idea when. They are close...

@Fakestar nope, I thought that too when we first worked on the chapter, but in this case it's the name of the first song on the Hawkwind album "Doremi Faso Latido", which also has the song "Urban Guerrilla". So all three names for the characters and stand come from one album...

Hi! I'm part of the team that works on this project. Chapter 70 is currently the last chapter that has been released in color in Japan. When more chapters are released in color, the JJCA will work on them. But for now, please don't think that the project has been dropped, or that we are...

@ all of you asking if it's dropped: No. Instead of wondering if something is dropped, maybe ask the people who work on it? Our names are right there on the credits page of every chapter, and we have an active Facebook page. And upload the chapters. It's not hard to find us and get an answer...

Yooooo! Nice! I worked on this series for years, but had a lot of trouble finding translators who were able to stick with it. I'm very glad to see it picked up again, and I think the new team is doing a great job.

Yep, thanks. I'll edit that.

We are working on it, and I'm shifting this to be my main focus. Can't promise any schedule, but I can promise that in gonna keep working on the series.

@ all the people complaining about how long the last gap between chapters was: Please shut up. There was a gap because there were literally no chapter to work on in color.

Finally got the rest of this uploaded. Enjoy the rest of the black and white version of Stone Ocean! This was completed years ago, but simply wasn't finished being uploaded. Because I forgot. But that's remedied now!

With Urasawa's standard pattern of 8 chapters per volume, I have a strong feeling that we will get chapter 16, and then he will take a hiatus for a few months. We do know that volume 2 will be printed in early autumn 2019, which I bet means it will be out in October. The story has another 56...

I'm so glad to be working on this again! We're settling in to a groove as a team, so we hope to start a semi-regular release schedule. I'm shooting for a chapter once every two weeks. Can't guarantee that, but we will try.

After tons of delays, I'm happy to say that I'm in the process of typesetting chapter 30. We have a be translator, she the project is officially back up and running!

Haha, this time skip is small compared to what Urasawa pulls in most of his series. Normally it's 10+ years!
