This manga deserves those awards.

 

[BCS]

Slow and boring, just the way I like my Josei

 

[Moodyz]

Some kind scanlator please pick this up. [begging emoji]

 

[Comadrin]

This is a gem and definitely deserves the awards that it received! I'm really sad that none of it has been scanlated for over five years. The depth of the characters and the mangaka's insight into human nature are incredible. I really hope someone picks it up one of these days.

 

[donutholer]

the fuck? Village scans would rather scan isekai trash than manga with awards?? Ok good choices you're making.

 

[totallynotmike]

You people read or just reacting to first two chapters?

 

[ProjectYume]

Does anyone have raws for this? I might commission someone to translate this in the future.

 

[Dundun123]

A beautiful story that deserves to be translated! Anyone out there?? Please!!
Anyways it's only 36 chapters long. Compared to 100+ chap manga scanlators are willing to do, I don't think it's much.

 

[Mayukas]

@ProjectYume Yup, I have raws. Let me know if you'd like to work together.

@Dundun123 I'm asking my translator friend if he's interested. If he is, we'll pick this up.

@totallynotmike no more than 2 chaps scanlated

@donutholer same feeling man

 

[donutholer]

@mayukas sheesh I sent that message 2 years ago. time flies I suppose

 

[Mayukas]

@donutholer
tis the life of a manga reader, we wait for scans forever

 

[donutholer]

@mayukas

sigh...

There's so many manga in my Plan to Watch because they're not popular enough to be scanned And Japanese is fucking hard so I can't learn that either

 

[Dundun123]

@Mayukas If there's interest, that's all I can ask for. Thanks man. Most of the kind of stories I'm into don't get paid much attention anyways. Oh well.

 

[tr25a3]

I would love to see this being picked up aswell.
Any news on if it will happen?

 

[Fluffislife]

This manga has a great movie adaptation by kore-eda called "our little sister".

 

[Mayukas]

Hi everyone, sorry for the long wait.

I am waiting for my current TL to get back to me with the script. There is nothing I can do right now until I get translations in.

@Fluffislife Yes I watched it. It was a great movie. 9/10.

@tr25a3 It's on my plan. I can't do much until my translator is done.

 

[justforthelulz]

Damn, this series has been waiting forever to be continued.

Chapter 1 (English release by VIS in 2010)
Chapter 2 (English release by VIS in 2012)
Chapters 3~36 (English releases by Mayukas in ????)

 

[Mayukas]

@justforthelulz

Haha, honestly I don't know if it'll ever happen. I've talked to MULTIPLE people about translating this and have been ghosted or rejected eventually. It's a tough manga to TL since it's dialogue heavy.

I'm looking into the French copies and might drag my IRL friend to translate it since she is fluent in French. I dunno.

I also need a cleaner/redrawer if we really want to push forward with this series and have consistent releases.

@Mayukas @justforthelulz Hi there~ I'll be picking up the rest of this series along with folks at Starless Nights Scans! Stay tuned for ch. 3 (currently being translated)
