    +Anima - Vol. 10 Ch. 56 - Hill of Fluttering Wings

    I downloaded this series translated by M+K in 2005~2006 via BT, but only read up to the 3rd volume. Was going through my old folders, and saw a cut-out of Bat-mode Nana I made from one of the pages, which reminded me this series existed. It's interesting, after all these years, to go back and...

    Wonder Azuma Hideo Land - Vol. 1 - Little Red Riding Hood in Wonderland

    First-rate Ero-Guro-Nonsense, the first of its kind, by the Father of Otaku Culture. What the western world understands as hentai manga, or what Japan calls Bishoujo ero-manga began with this story.

    Yuugai Toshi

    Chapter 10 references something that happened with Miyazaki Tsutomu, the Otaku Killer. A reporter, Kobayashi Toshiyuki, went into Miyazaki's bedroom, and said in his 2015 book that since there was nothing related to erotica that's visible within the bedroom, a TV cameraman scrounged around and...

    Berserk - Vol. 41 Ch. 363 - Leaping Monkey

    @jak @EKappaZ @Mudsaur @thegoatrider In Japan, 'Star Wars' was a huge deal back in the early 1980s during what Japanese manga/anime/game historians refer to as the 'ロリコンブーム', and one could say there was a 'Star Wars' boom going on at the same time, heavily influencing the kind of comics and...

    Ruin Explorer Fam & Irhlie - Vol. 1 Ch. 5.5 - Temple of Darkness: Part 5

    More margin notes. The author is responding to two different users from specific districts. I'm not going to bother transcribing the names or district. 「ファムのガレージつくってくれてありがとーっ!!あの…できれば完成品くださーいっ!!」 「音楽カセットありがとっ!!なかなか良いチョイスですぜ!!」 "Y-san from X district, thank you for making a Fam garage kit...

    Ruin Explorer Fam & Irhlie - Vol. 1 Ch. 5.4 - Temple of Darkness: Part 4

    Since the scanlator couldn't read it, I transcribed and translated the author margin note for those curious: ■End Chapter Note: 「STⅡ~てめー悪魔のゲームめっ オレの時間をお返してやがれーっ!!」 "STⅡ~! You damned demonic game! Give me back my time—!” Unless I'm mistaken, STⅡ is the Japanese abbreviation for 'Streetfighter...

    @dogtato: When Mangaplus loads, click to '・・・' in the upper-right corner, and switch from vertical to horizontal so it loads the double pages correctly sewn together.

    Regarding the note on Boku: Adults will often refer to boys as 'boku', and boys will use this as a personal pronoun. If a young girl hangs around boys or brothers who use 'boku', then it's common for these girls to also use 'boku' as a personal pronoun until the end of elementary school. Past...

    Berserk - Vol. 1 Ch. 0.01 - The Black Swordsman

    @Devil_Trigger: These translations are old. 2002-ish or older. The scan quality and translation preferences of people back then are different from the way they are now. There wasn't much in the way of English and Japanese dictionaries, either. Guts name in Japanese is 'ガッツ' (Gattsu), and for a...
