Thanks for Tengoku ni Musubu Koi, you guys have some fucking awesome taste

Did you translate other arcs from Burgess no Otomo-tachi or is only the first one complete? Unique series, thanks

 

[zaibatan80]

Only the three volumes of the Anomalocaris arc were translated so far.

Hey, is it possible for y'all to continue your translations for Hanappe Bazooka?

No plans to pick this back up after 13 years. You may want to ask the fine folks @AndroidLB if they're interested. They're doing great work on a number of Go Nagai manga:

@therockerx I will not do this unless I can get better scan. The digital is fine for the color pages but the ebookjp scan is too compressed for my taste. Thx for the scan. I'll see to do it when I have time.

Howdy, is there any chance Caterpillar will keep translating Six Consciousnesses Thought Changing Ataraxia by Kago Shintaro? Would really love to finish it.

 

[Bweppers]

Not sure if you did this because of my message, but I noticed you uploaded the next chapter recently. Either way, thanks a lot! I've really wanted to finish this series.

 

[zaibatan80]

Yes, your message was kind of the push I needed to get back into this manga. I never dropped it but it sure had been a while since I last released anything from it.

Hi, its me again. Thanks so much for finishing translating Six Conciousnesses. Now that I've read it, I think its one of Kage Shintaro's best works, so I'm really grateful your work allowed me to read it. Super glad I got to knock off another of Shintaro's works off my list, I've read all his translated works and the handful of untranslated or partially translated works really nag at me. If you're looking for something else to translate, Shintaro's partially translated and abandoned Paranoia Street is exceptional as well. Either way, thanks a ton.

I have enough projects to finish and other things I want to translate to keep me busy for decades. Finishing Paranoia Street would be quite a job to take on. It's not on my to-do list right now but I did actually translate the final chapter of volume 1 many years ago after the other groups dropped it - just to get that first volume finished. It says "No Group" but that was actually me. Hard to prove but if you look the font used and the editing may look familiar. So... Never say never. I always hoped this would get licensed and officially translated because it is one of Kago's tamer works but recently it looks like the only works publishers consider are the most recent things Kago publishes and not his older works.
