With this, we're all caught up with the Japanese chapters again... For those who want the drama CD that came with this issue, there's a link to it on our forums (should be easy enough to find).

Enjoy!

Yen Press has announced that they have licensed High School of the Dead in North America, as such we will no longer be continuing the series. Here's to hoping they do at least as kickass of a job as we would have.

And let us not forget the message from the author...

BUY LEGALITY COOL COMIC!!!

We'll post links (to amazon of course ;P) when the first volume is available in english~

Kitties!

Another great chapter. Enjoy it, y'all!

The HotD anime's started (go check it out if you haven't already!), and as a result we've been getting way more traffic than usual since last week. So, the DDL links for HotD have been taken down temporarily during the boom to help save bandwidth. Sorry for the inconvenience, but if you want to download any HotD (including this chapter) just use the mirrors or get it from our IRC channel for the time being (as of this writing, chapter 26 is not yet available on the IRC channel, so be careful). This shouldn't make it too hard to get for most of you, I imagine, but it's definitely worth a mention, so there ya go.

Next HotD chapter is due out in September, and it looks like the series is going to be running pretty irregularly for the foreseeable future; Shouji Sato is taking a break next month (most likely due to Comiket) and the next Triage X chapter will be out in October, almost certainly running in HotD's place for that month. Let me again take this space to recommend that you read Triage X if you want more from the artist of HotD! It's similarly sexy and violent, plus it has the same great art you've come to expect. We've translated the first volume, and are waiting for volume 2 to be released to continue.

Pretty sure that's all for now. Expect some surprises soon if you're reading some of the other series we're translating~

To those in the US, happy Memorial Day! Today we have three, that's right, THREE Yomeiro-Choice chapters for you to celebrate the day off! ...Raws only appeared recently, so it's not like we were holding on to them for today or anything, I swear!

Also worth a mention is another Doi Sakazaki AKA tenkla H-oneshot we released a little earlier. It's in the Ero section of the site but it's there for a reason, so don't be naughty, kids! Stay in school!

To those not in the US or who don't have the day off, then hopefully these chapters will help ease the never-ending pain that is every Monday. ;_;

In any case, enjoy~!

Well, some more REC~. Not much to say here, I guess. Enjoy!

Wow, 60 pages... Once again, due to a lack of raws, the chapter was scanned completely by us. :P And what a chapter... But let me take this space to fill you in on some updates regarding the series.

• Highschool of the Dead is going on a short hiatus for two months after this. Chapter 26 will be available in the August issue of Dragon Age, on sale July 9th.
• For the next couple months, Triage X is supposed to be running in HotD's place, which means that volume 2 of Triage X will most likely come out around July or August, as we predicted before.
• We have no idea what the status of HotD is after the August issue, so don't bother asking. Chances are that it'll become monthly until it ends (or the writer craps out again), which would cause Triage X to go on indefinite hiatus, or it'll become bimonthly, alternating months with Triage X. It could even be something else, like HotD gets 6 chapters in a row, then Triage X gets 6 chapters in a row... Really, though, we have no idea. These are just guesses.
• Volume 6 of HotD also comes out July 9th. We'll probably be doing the same HQ treatment we gave to the previous volumes.
• A spin-off manga of HotD is also starting next month, and it's going to be written by Hiroshi Tamaru (this is the guy the character Hiro Tamaru was based on, similarly to how Kohta Hirano is based on the real-life Kouta Hirano). We're expecting it to be comedy like his past works, but we won't have any idea what it's like until next month. We may end up translating it, but we'll decide that once we actually get a look.
• The anime is also starting in July! Just to make it perfectly clear, it is a TV series, not an OVA or movie. You can view the official trailer HERE.
• The voice actors for the anime series are supposed to be revealed in next month's Dragon Age.

And that's that. Enjoy the chapter!

Here's a oneshot that was published in the magazine Champion RED. Bakekano is in fact a series that runs in RED's sister magazine Champion RED Ichigo. This is basically just a simple stand-alone story involving the characters, we have no plans to translate the origional series. If any of you out there would like to however, then be our guest.

We'll be getting some new Highschool of the Dead and Yomeiro-Choice out in the very near future, so get ready for them...

But for now, enjoy the new oneshot!

New Yomeiro, fur den sieg!

As a note for those who like this author's style of humor, you may want to check out our just-translated oneshot by Doi Sakazaki, Dragon Final 3. Note, however, that it's in the ERO portion of our site for a reason, so beware that it is very much NSFW.

Hope you enjoy the new chapters~

A new series! And the whole first volume (five 32+ page chapters) at that! To be honest, calling this a "new series" wouldn't be totally accurate, because I've been working on this translation since the series started in Japan almost a year ago.

This is the series that took Highschool of the Dead's place when that went on hiatus, so if you like HotD, definitely give this a look. Being by the same artist, they're similar in many respects and fans of HotD should find a lot to like here. (Don't blame Shouji Sato for the HotD hiatus, though! That was Daisuke Sato's fault, and if Shouji didn't start Triage X then he would have been without work!)

Anyway, this release wouldn't have been possible without the excellent work of Stand Alone Scanlations, so pop in and give them a visit to thank them for the great editing job if you get the chance. Thanks a lot, guys!

Now, as for the future of this series, the magazine scans of the chapters don't normally get scanned, so it may be a long wait until volume 2 (we're expecting it to be out in July or August). But try to look on the bright side: you'll get a bunch of chapters at once and you'll never have to deal with a censored version!

I sincerely hope you enjoy the effort we all put into this release, so get to reading it!

As promised, here's chapter 24 of Highschool of the Dead. Why did so many people doubt that we would put it out after we clearly said we would be doing it? In any case, here it is now!

By the way, we're aware there's some scanlation of the chapter done from Chinese floating around, but all we can say is that we highly recommend reading a straight Japanese-to-English translation like ours over something like that. A lot gets lost when translating between three languages, you know, and apparently the pages were out of order...

You should be happy to know that we included a promotional article with images from the upcoming anime series with the chapter. Aside from that, we did our best to produce a high quality scan and translation as quickly as possible (in spite of my finals being this week ;_;) so we really hope you enjoy it...

With that said, I hope you'll join us again in one month's time for chapter 25!

What...!? REC!? Oh yeah, that's one of the series we do. It's been a long time, but try to enjoy it anyway. This wraps up the current story arc. Although I say this every time we release a new chapter of REC... hopefully the wait for the next chapter won't be nearly this long. ;P

A special Valentine's Day chapter, prepared for you a day early~

By the way, due to uncontrollable technical difficulties (tree destroyed a fiber cable), our forums are down temporarily. They should be back sometime soonish.

In other unrelated-to-Yomeiro-Choice news, it's been announced that Highschool of the Dead will have two chapters published in two consecutive issues of Monthly Dragon Age, with the first available March 9. Our plans are to translate from the magazine initially. The status of the series after those two chapters are released is as of yet unknown, but keep your fingers crossed for it to stay off hiatus...

In addition, HOTD will be getting an anime series, animated by Madhouse! There's little information available on when it'll be out yet, but that should be something to look forward to.

Anyway, enjoy the new Yomeiro~

Happy NEW YEAR!!!!

Its been a trying, yet interesting 2009. Here's to hoping 2010 will be epic.

I know we'll be doing our part... ;P

On a side note, if you are awesome at Typesetting, and are looking for a place to call home, drop us a line~

Merry Christmas!

For those of you who are in the USA, Happy Thanksgiving! For everyone else, Happy Whatever day today is for you, even if just some random day in November.

Today we have a very special release for you all, it's the Last chapter of Arisu. This series has gone by so fast... ;_;
Short, but very sweet. We hope you've enjoyed it as much as we have~

Check back for a full volume compiliation in the next few weeks.

A very scary Yomeiro-Choice for Halloween... wait, we already released the "scary" chapter at the beginning of the month!? Well, take another chapter anyway. Eat some candy with it or something.

Here, have another couple oneshots. These are by Chizuna Nakajima, the author of Iinari! Aibu-ration and Alice no Hyakudo CC. Unlike his other series, these aren't about peeing. For that matter, they're not really particularly insane in any way, contrary to everything else we've been translating lately. Now before you start rioting in the streets, give these a chance; they're not half bad.

Toriko no Onna no Ko is about a high school girl who moves in with a family friend, but there's something strange about her... Nuku Nuku Toshoiin is about... well, nothing really. If you like light hints of yuri and a relaxing atmosphere, then you should find it enjoyable.

Enjoy~

This is the second to last chapter, just so you know. And what a chapter it is.

A very scary Yomeiro-Choice for October...

Today we present you with two oneshots by Doi Sakazaki! Although it's not "officially" confirmed, there's a lot of evidence that suggests that Doi Sakazaki is the same person as tenkla (the author of Yomeiro-Choice) but with a different penname.

Anyway, the oneshots are Portball!, the story of a girl's portball team fighting for its right to exist, and Boin Tantei vs. Kaitou Sanmensou, which is about a detective duo's battle of wits with a world-famous thief. Both are insane ecchi gag/parody stories that may be even crazier than Yomeiro-Choice... With that said, enjoy!
